Stopped at this exit to get gas. Had planned on eating at Subway that was in the building where the gas was located but then noticed this Mexican restaurant. Yum!!!! I ordered the number 7 combination plate....an Enchilada (I always get a cheese one), a Chile Relleno, Mexican rice and refried beans. Omg!!! Everything was so fresh tasting! The poblano chile was REALLY fresh tasting. Something I have never noticed before at any Mexican restaurant. The rice was very tasty and the refried beans were delicious. I also asked for their house hot sauce. So good! Beforehand they give you the requisite tortilla chips and salsa. They gave the salsa to us in a little pouring container along with two bowls to pour it in. So both me and my husband had our own bowls of salsa. So convenient and something that I've never had done at any other Mexican restaurant. Our waiter (maybe the owner?) was very friendly and accommodating. What a great find. Oh....my husband ordered the beef fajita which he loved as well.
Stopped by here after a long day of travel. Was not expecting anything stellar and that was reflected in the level of service. Staff seem very uninterested in serving people and would rather hang around and chat. The interior is very dated and could use a major upgrade. Also, food on the floor and under the tables. Does this restaurant ever get cleaned? I was going to rate this place a three... till the food situation. Menu is massively extensive and the food is what sets this place apart. Chose fish tacos and a veggie combo. Unlike other Mexican places in the Midwest - this place does not coat everything in "queso". Veggie quesadilla's were awesome, as were the fish tacos. Food is genuinely flavorful and tasty. Will certainly return.
Great little hole in the wall place. The food is wonderful and the service was good. We went for Dinner and it didn't disappoint. I had fajitas and they were flavorful but needed some seasoning (salt). The place is a little run down and the upholstery could use a lot of work, but the food was nice and the place was clean.
As a trucker it's hard to find Vegan food while on the road. I just found my new spot when passing through Kanas. Vegetable Fajitas was super good, and came with homemade chips/ salsa, Rice / beans. The service was amazing too! The women talking my order was very understanding that I'm Vegan and made sure to have my order right
If you're driving through western Kansas you're tired of all the fast food and truckstop food out there, I heartily recommend pulling off I-70 at Ellis for Cancun Mexican Grill. My wife had a grilled tilapia platter with shrimp, it was not only beautifully presented but she said delicious. I had a couple of fish tacos and they were also delicious. Interestingly, the fish was grilled, then chopped so it wouldn't slip out of the shell. Add a little pico de gallo and voilà! Also there for refried beans or nicely space and not pasty like a lot are.
Always stop here when I travel by which is at least four times a year. Plenty of extent KS Mid West style Mexican food.
