Better Mexican Restaurant

[Aiden Seamus]

Of the chains, Taco Bell.

 

Qdoba and Chipotle make me sick to my stomach.

 

However, Casa Fiesta and El Azul Grande are good sit-down restaurants.

Gotta go off the ballot and vote for Rio Grande in Newport. It's good stuff!:thumb:

I like Montoya's, but they were closed last week and I went to Three Amigo's off of Turfway for the first time, I liked that as well.

 

Montoyas for me. Wonder why it was closed last week??

 

A close second, though it is tough to compare the two because they are different types of restaurants is Abuellos in Crestview Hills.

Lafincas here in Ashland is tough to beat. I eat there once a week.

 

Fajita Texana for me (fajitas with steak, chicken and shrimp).

 

I could eat myself to death on their chips and salsa. The queso is awesome too.

IMO . . . Taco Tico was WAY better than Taco Bell. I couldn't believe it when they closed. I think the last one (that I knew of anyway) was on Nicholasville Rd in Lex but it's been gone a long time.

I like Tumbleweed. I think that is considered Tex Mex though.

:thumb: I loved Taco Tico. My roommates and I used to load up on their food using coupons at the former Tates Creek area location. There was one in Prestonsburg for a while and I also used to take US 60 from Lexington to Winchester so I could drive through the Taco Tico there. The Winchester location is the last one that I remember being open.

I tend to stay away from the chains.

 

Mi Camino Real in Maysville is probably my favorite; it's close, prices are great and you get your food fast.

 

I also like LaFinca's.

 

In Lexington, there's one right off Leestown Road in the Maplethorpe (sp?) area that has a buffet. We like that one a lot also.

Taco Casa? Any remember them?

When mcmama and I were newly married, we would go to the Taco Tico in Morehead quite a bit.

Taco Casa in Hyde Park. Voted best Chicken Taco Salad by Cincinnati Magazine every year...:thumb:

I almost said the same, but the last part of your post is why I didn't. However whever I go there I get a Burrito delux, which I would consider to be Mexican food. Oh and I get their chili conqueso. I've been craving that lately, but my partner in food isn't a big fan I don't think.

Taco John's is BY FAR the best fast food Mexican chain. Puts Taco Bell to shame!!

El Camino in Mt. Sterling is fantastic.

In Lexington, I'll go with Rincon downtown.

In NKY ... nothing comes close to Acapulco.

The food is excellent ... with the biggest portions in the area. (Get the Texas Fajitas)

The margaritas are by far the best in the area.

 

I have been going there since it opened (when no one was ever there) .. and the quality has actually improved over time. By far the best in the area.
