My entree was excellent (shrimp enchiladas), but my wife's beef burrito was very bland. The queso is very good and the place has a nice, open atmosphere. It took a while to get the ticket, and the first one was completely wrong (assumed we simply got someone else's by accident), but once I finally got the right ticket, I noticed we were charged for 2 glasses of original punch (my wife ordered water). When I asked about this, the waitress explained that the manager pointed out refills on the house punch aren't free, and when she offered to refill my drink, she didn't know that. Just fair warning to anyone else-- There are at least 2 other local mexican food venues within 5 minutes of this place in Benton that don't charge for refills on house punch, so if you eat here, just order water, tea or a soft drink, instead.
Overall, it was an ok experience, and we had to try it for the novelty, but it doesn't really compete with the local place you can see just across the interstate from the parking lot.
