El Amigo Feliz

We looked across the vast lot at Love's Truckstop and spotted a restaurant. Not familiar with Arkansas, I wondered on the food compared to southwestern establishments. Upon entering, seat yourself, your immediately recognized and served homemade chips and homemade salsa dip. Very mild but delicious greeting to a friendly placed.

The place was engrossed in talking and festive music. The atmosphere set the tone of the entire place and anticipation of the food. Server was quickly to our table. If you're wondering, our server spoke perfect English. I'm mentioning this because some places we've experienced, had to literally point at pictures because of a language barrier. I ordered Pollo Loco which is rare to find on any menu.

I'm sitting waiting my dish. Sipping unsweetened iced tea and nibbling my chips and sauce. Very relaxing and I must amuse myself by people watching. Be back soon.

The dish has arrived and upon sampling, it was delicious. The food was as fresh as the Spring rain. Not everything was homemade but the stuff that wasn't had been skillfully infused into the dish. It is authentic but only desired would be more heat, as in spice. I could have requested if they had something hotter but I'm a happy customer. Overall, a wonderful experience and very friendly server whom I haven't been able to ask her name. But, I will. My server is Maria!

Looks sketch but I was actually impressed. The reason I'm giving them a 4 was because they they will put cheese & cheese sauce on the plates and wait them under the heat lamps until they are all ready to go out. We ordered the taco salad which was really good! Burrito supreme! Chimichanga (which was soggy because of the cheese on top to long). Ground beef is wonderful! The cheese nachos were just a cold mess. We just asked to have it taken off the check since we weren't eating it. Overall for the prices, and decent location right off I-40 it definitely a good lunch/dinner.

Side note: Don't go to a Mexican food restaurant, order a burger, then leave a 2 star or below review because it's wasn't good. It's just common sense.

Road trip? At the gas station? Pop over across the street for REAL food. Very friendly, and for a Togo order it was very quick and the staff was very friendly! Plus the ambiance is nice they have such fun and artsy decorations

This place was absolutely delicious. Quick service. Lots of food and great prices! Nice little hidden gem on the way to Nashville. 10/10. Would def recommend!!!

I never was one to trust restaurants near hotels. But I'm super glad I popped in here to eat with my bf. Super yummy food and big portions for the price ! The employees were super nice and fast. And the decorations are bright and colorful overall an awesome and good tasting place to go to!

Wasn't sure about this restaurant on our way to Las Vegas from visiting friends in Knoxville we stopped in here
Great clean atmosphere Food is excellent ordered the chimichanga and my husband had the nacho supreme nothing greasy
Everyone was very nice excellent service

Excellent Mexican Food. Service was very good. Prices where very reasonable. Would highly recommend.

Amazing food, very clean establishment, friendly service! Great chips & queso! Fresh squeezed lime in my Topo Chico made for the best one we have ever had!! Can't wait to come back!

Only recommend this place if you have lots of time to wait. Every little aspect is waiting and then wait some more. Tried to pay bill but no one wanted to use the cadh register. They weren't that busy. Maybe another 5 tables. Terrible service. And the food was just ok

This place was a perfect stop off I40. We stopped in around 2:30 to grab some lunch and glad we did. We stopped based on other reviews and have no complaints. The service was so friendly and quick. For a random monday middle of the day afternoon, they had quite a few tables filled up. Always a good sign. Salsa tasted fresh and had good flavor. Both our meals were great portions and tasted great! We will definitely be returning if we are ever on I40 in that direction. The inside and restrooms were very clean!
