Portal del Gusto — Restaurant in Conway

The family and I have a rotation of restaurants that visit, and this is always on our list of stops. The reason we like to visit here is because of its uniqueness. All of the other sit-down Mexican restaurants in town have the usual chips and salsa to start you out (and these guys do too...if requested), but this place starts you out on rancho beans.

The rice and beans were also dry, i’m definitely in favor of moist meals especially when it’s mexican food. overall it was ok, not going to come here as often as I did the old place that...
