A new restaurant where an old diner used to be. We were surprised that it was no longer the diner we expected, but the new owners are working hard to fill the niche left by the diners closing and the struggles of opening a new restaurant. Overall authentic, Mexican food with love served in every bite. Good luck with your new venture we'll be back.
Well…I never expected Campechana in Bliss Idaho, but I had it here. It was very good. Very delicious. It had shrimp, octopus and scallop and of course it was very tasty with avocado bits put in it which is the way a good campechana should be. The young lady that took my order was good good service, friendly people highly recommend it. the next time that I go in here I will be having the Molcajete. By the way, a good list of different types of alcoholic beverages to choose from also the chips and salsa that they bring in the beginning when you sit down also come with refried beans, which is a fantastic combination if you have never tried that before all good in my opinion, definitely recommend this place if you are ever in Bliss Idaho.
I don't normally make reviews but this place absolutely blew my expectations out of the water. I got the arroz con pollo and it was incredible. The portions were much more than I expected and the flavor was out of this world. The waitress was very pleasant and represented the restaurant professionally and happily.
I was working in the area, staying at the only motel in Bliss, so I tried the only full service restaurant. It was very good. I ate there both nights. Smiling attentive waitress. Prompt service. Good food in generous portions. Mexican restaurants in Idaho bring both salsa and beans with the appetizer chips. A nice touch. I had chicken fajitas the first night and a steak fajita salad the second night. Not much salad stuff, but hey, it must be good for me, it's a salad! Whatever you call it, it's a good blend of fajita fixins topped with a big pile of tender steak strips. Bonus points for hot salsa.
Oh my gosh, the best food I had in a long time. Waitress was the cutiest and nicest. If she has a man in her life, he has to be the luckiest man. That food, tho I'll be back. I'm local
Basic Mexican food menu. Homestyle with some dishes. I ordered the "Chile Colorado" made with tender beef, not pork. They have a liquor bar & beer. Local law enforcement eats here so you know food is trustworthy & safe. 1/4 mile hike from Love's Truck Stop. Dirt lot parking in back. Yes I would recommend!
Pretty solid Mexican restaurant overall. Got the Potrillos burrito. You get a lot of food and the chips and salsa are good. Nice staff too.
First visit and loved it. Midweek Elko, just after noon, the parking lot was moderately full, and its a big lot. My partner & I ordered our standard hearty lunches. We were on a break from camping at a remote lake so a full tummy was our goal. I had their two chicken enchiladas lunch special, and Anna had single taco. Great service, chips, frijoles and salsa - nice comfortable seating with view of the old route thru town. Plus they have restaurants near my Idaho home!
