Fiesta Ranchero

If ever in the area again I'll have to make a hard pass on this restaurant. The food was the worst I think I've ever experienced at a Mexican restaurant and I hate that because normally Mexican food is my favorite. The beans tasted stale. The waiter wasn't friendly at all, in fact I'd go so far as to say he was rude. The worst part is he mixed up the drinks when he took them away for a refill and delivered a drink that someone else had drank out of. That's not cool whatsoever! He just shrugged his shoulders like no big deal. If I could rate a zero I would!

Great food, great service and great prices. What more could you ask for? Oh yeah, let me tell you about the lemonade---absolutely FANTASTIC!! It's no wonder they have been voted the number one Mexican restaurant in McMinnville, TN. They deserve it. The competition is tough too, with this little town having several other options in Mexican fare. For two adults to eat, with each getting a non-alcoholic drink, along with a nice tip, the bill was still under thirty bucks. That's totally unheard of these days. You can barely eat at Taco Bell for that much! The restaurant is clean, well kept and has a very welcoming atmosphere on top of everything else I've mentioned. You can't go wrong eating here. It's located inside the plaza which sits behind the Walgreens on the corner of Smithville Highway and Highway 70, kitty corner and across the main road from Waffle House. We both had plenty of leftovers to eat to boot and we will definitely be going back very soon. There IS another restaurant with the same name in McMinnville but I personally like this one the best.

Came in on a Sunday afternoon and restaurant was empty. My friend and I were seated after being ignored by the host for ~2 minutes. Chips were brought (no drink order) but we were then ignored for fifteen minutes. We eventually just left. There were plenty of staff and we weren't being rude so not sure why they wouldn't serve us. This place used to be great but I now understand why my family doesn't come here anymore.
