About 35 years ago we discovered Mama Inez restaurant and bar in Idaho Falls, We were told to get the nachos. They brought out a mountain of chips, cheese, meats, beans, tomatoes, onions, sour cream and Guac!! It easily fed four of us, we went back a few times but then they disappeared. We knew they had other locations but we couldn't find them and they seemed to come and go. Last Saturday night we were in Pocatello Idaho and headed in to town when I spotted a sign, "Did that say "Mama Inez"???" Yup! We swung around and parked, went inside and ordered a half order of chicken nachos (about $14), as it was just 2 of us. The service was friendly and they took great care that all our needs were met. The nachos have evolved, but they are still more than enough for the two of us. Everything was fresh and delicious. We live about 2 hours south, but we will be coming back, and bringing the family! So excited to find an old family favorite that we have missed for many years. Go to Mama Inez, and try the Nachos!

I ordered Chili Rellenos yesterday and was very disappointed. It’s been some time since I had them at Mama Inez, and this was not even appetizing. It had so much breading on it that I couldn’t taste the chili and cheese. It should be just the opposite. Please go back to a light coating so we can actually taste the chili and cheese. This is the first time I’ve been disappointed in your food in over 20 years. I had a hard time finding the chilies. This three star rating would’ve been lower, except for my server. He apologized and made it right financially. I was just severely disappointed because I had my sights set on an excellent dinner, and I didn’t get it.
