tacos 4 life grill

my friend and i decided to give this place a try due to all of the positive ratings. we went for lunch around noon on a busy wednesday. we didn't have to wait long toorderdespite the crowd. i got the personal queso, the spicy chorizo taco, and a side of the refried black beans. the queso was given to me before i walked away from the register and we munched on that while we waited for our tacos. the queso is good - not too salty and a slight hint of spice to it. they give you enough chips to enjoy along with it, and at one point someone walked by and asked us if we wanted more. we did have to wait a little bit for our tacos due to the crowd, yet we got them before we were done with our queso so it was fine. the chorizo taco is indeed spicy, yet it was full of flavor and there was a lot of ground chorizo in it. this was a very big taco. i was worried that the over-$4 taco would be either small or the flavor would be lacking, yet there was no need to worry. the beans were quite good as well. i look forward to going back and trying what else they have to offer!

the serious steak burrito. yeah, i got this burrito and it was great. not some huge burrito stuffed with sub-par ingredients. this is now my favorite item on the menu. the cilantro lime rice is delicious. mexican creamed corn is delicious. who would have thought that simple rice would be so good. it is nice and sticky just the way i like rice. i got the churros for desert and i don't really care for churros. i always thought they were just ok, but these were awesome. keep up the good work. it shows by how crowded they are that people in conway love this place. i can't imagine going to any of the other mexican style restaurants ever again in conway. the fruit punch rocks as well. my favorite tacos: the counselor, cuban pork, sweet chili shrimp.

serious steak burrito, churro. quite possibly the best steak burrito i've ever eaten. this is probably only the second time in my life i have ever had a churro. they just were not impressive to me but tacos 4 life's churros were awesome. i willorderthose again.

good food but staff is highly untrained. first time we went they gave us ourorderin to go boxes which made it very cramped at the small tables. the second time i had to repeat myordertwice to the girl (very simple order). i asked for water and got handed a kids cup, she said the big cups don't hold water. there are no lids or straws out for the kids cups, so i asked the girl that took ourorderand she gave us lids that didn't fit. my 5 year old promptly spilled his drink. we got our food and my meal was short a taco (i ordered 2 a la cart) so i asked for my other taco. she proceeded to tell me that a la cart means "by itself" i said "i know that's why i ordered two." we waited and waited and never got the other taco. i really like the food but the chaotic atmosphere is too much. won't be back until i hear the service is better.
