Senor Clucks Mexican Cuisine — Restaurant in Branson

OOF- I haven’t had a bad food experience in a while but this was awful. It took forever to get us seated, forever to get our drinks ordered, to get them out, it was almost an HOUR before we got our food which was warm, not hot. The salsa bar was out the entire time so we had nothing to eat with our chips, the service was so lacking- they’re understaffed but even the staff they have was slow to serve and instead of serving, they kept bussing tables of people who would leave from waiting so long. We finally got our food and it was gross and wrong. No other way to say it. The chorizo tasted dirty, beef tasted like roast, and chicken tasted like nothing. The guac was so bad like really bitter? Idk it was bad.

And it was SO EXPENSIVE!! They charge $3 to “smother” 2 table spoons of queso on your burrito. Everything was expensive for the sizes. I can’t even imagine expecting a tip with service like that. Can’t wait to see what this place turns...

First red flag should've been that we were there at 530 on a Friday night and were the only car in the parking lot. Branson is a tourist town and I get prices are up there, but $6 domestic bottles is pretty absurd.

Ordered the arroz con pollo, y'know, chicken with rice. But ordering it in English initially got us literally a grilled chicken breast on a side of rice rather than the actual entree. Addressed that, got it corrected. But what came to the table was just gross. The chicken was bland and undercooked and didn't even taste like chicken. The rice smelled like dog food. I can't describe it any other way. We paid for our drinks and left.

Server was friendly enough, and they didn't charge us for the meal, but this is hands down the worst food experience I think I've ever had at a Mexican restaurant.

The location has beautiful views, it's on the main drag, and has an eye catching mascot. It should be packed and it's not and I...

honestly, i would give this place zero stars if i could. even taco bell is better than this joke of a restaurant! our server was hardly attentive and it took about 15 minutes for us to even get chips. all of the salsa on the “salsa bar” looked disgusting and it was dry and rotting on the sides of the bowls. yuck! chips were amazing, but what’s good chips without decent salsa? after asking our waitress to refill the salsa bar, we got our salsa, and it just tasted like canned crap. beans were great as well. rice tasted just like cup rice that you boil in a bag or toss in the microwave. it tasted like water. i couldn’t eat them. enchilidas were also disgusting, hardly any filling and barely cooked, also coated in microwaved store bought queso.

PLEASE save your money and just go to another local restaurant. this one is absolutely a tourist trap....
