La Chiquita — Restaurant in Russellville

I came in with high hopes from the reviews I read. My margarita was fine, about what I expect from a middle of the road Mexican joint. The chips and salsa were pretty good, and I got a salsa refill without asking. I tried 4 different tacos and the steak sopas and all were well below average in taste and quality. The sopas was essentially a fried shell, covered in refried beans and a dollop of sour cream. There may have been some meat on there.

Service was ok, speed about average, and the host was nice when I came in but too busy on her phone to say goodbye when I left.

Service was wonderful and our waitress was very kind and helpful with all my questions. Really...

Me and my sister decided to try the new location because we love the other 2 locations. It was one of the worst experiences I don't know if it was an off day or what. Our waitress ignored us the whole time, and the food was burnt and almost inedible. We ordered a fajita and they barely put anything on our plate which we would normally share for lunch. Everyone else's plate was full of meat and veggies. It's very sad, I hope they all don't start going down hill now like La Huerta did when they started expanding. The manager was super friendly and...
