EL PUEBLITO in Bella Vista

Quick, clean and great service. Need a beer or three? Order a large - it's no joke. Salsa and razorback enchiladas are very good.

I can stay at home and dump fake Mexican food out of cans

The food was very good, the staff was friendly and pretty impressive in my opinion. One waiter carried about 6 plates on one arm. Prices were very reasonable also. Will definitely come here again. 😊

Some of the best Mexican food I've ever had

Great food. Good service.

Staff is incredibly friendly and goes above and beyond. Food is amazing. Every. Time. Always a wonderful experience.

I like their food, but service wasn't all that great. I definitely like the Centerton location better.

Good chimichanga. Good steady service.

I just wanted the review thing to go to 666 But it’s an amazing restaurant with great staff

The best service. They make sure you have whatever you need and want. Great taste and very reasonably priced. Will definitely go back.

Brst carnitas I've ever had. Chili Verde and El Toro are wonderful.

Delicious food, not too expensive, and attentive staff.

Festive Latino music, fun & friendly servers creates an authentic flavored Mexico atmosphere. Addicted to their Chile relleno dish " Lunch Special Number One" with their red sauce. We eat there weekly.

This is our go to spot for Mexican food. Order the “handmade” fresh guacamole! (See pic). Best ever!

Loved this place! Not too fancy but still very nice. started out with the best salsa and ended with fantastic food. Our waitress was very sweet and good at her job and the prices were very reasonable. They serve coke products and a wide selection of adult beverages. Def 5 stars 😉

Always enjoy dinner and drinks here.

Nice place. Clean friendly. Food was good.

Good food, good atmosphere, good service and a great deal.

Best service and food we have had all week and a lot cheaper than those other places

Prices have recently skyrocketed. Meat is over $40/lb. Not joking. Probably about $44. Ordered two pounds of meat and tortillas, and you get the chips and salsas along with it. Bill was $103. At first I was shocked. They'd never charged that much before. I could have gotten the same thing at another Mexican place for maybe $30-$50. After the shock wore off, I went back, complained, and they doubled the meat, possibly more than doubled it, but wow. It's tasty food, but I can't say I'll ever go back there again, personally. That was absolute highway robbery. I know covid has affected meat prices, but $43/lb?!?!

I very much enjoyed our visit here. Not only was our food delicious, but the service was spot on. Our waitress was attentive, polite, and knew what she was doing. Because she did it well. We will definitely be coming back!

Very huge quantitys of mild Tex Mex style food served up fast at very reasonable prices.

I don’t know what has happened but the food had gone down hill over the last year. Maybe they put all their energy into the new one in Centerton. The last 3 times we have gotten food the chips are stale, queso is runny, food not hot. We do pick up due to covid and only live about a mile away. It shouldn’t be cold that quickly. So disappointed.

Have known the owners since they opened and never had bad food or service.. excellent!

Great restaurant! Great food great service!

Very good Mexican food

The food and service was nice. Good pricing. However we had gift certificate that had been purchased from there. When we tried to redeem it they said it was for their other location. We pointed out it had their address and was in fact for their location. At this point there is a line of people waiting to pay. They ask " Don't you have another way you can pay" . To which my husband replied we will not be paying another way I have YOUR gift certificate. They go ask the manager if they can accept it and eventually do attempted to give us remaining balance but we declined. It should've been an easy transaction but it was not. If you sell gift certificates make your you accept them without issue.

very good place to eat in Bella Vista, friendly and attentive staff, good food

Good food good price great service

I had the molcajete it was absolutely the best Mexican I've had in Northwest Arkansas or Southwest Missouri

I'm sorry to be giving them a two star rating because I LOVE the food here. BUT, today my daughter took the lid off her drink and there was a slimy brown film the consistency of mucous in it. After looking it up we found it is the result of the fountain machine not being properly cleaned and can have very harmful bacteria in it. If they fix it or start cleaning their machine regularly I will be happy to switch it to a five star.

Food very good and service great food came very quickly.

Was tasty, but they don't use cheddar cheese, and that's what we all wanted.

This was a fanstastic gem I found in Bella Vista and just minutes from my home. The staff there are all so sweet and accommodating. The food is just delicious! I try something new every time I go, however the Choriqueso and the Chicken Quesadilla is a constant! The quesadilla is so full of cheese and meat, it's almlst like a burrito! I would absolutely recommend this place to any hungry person! Oh yeah, and the price is super affordable.

Any other time I've been here, it would have been 5 stars but today was the first time that i have been disappointed. The service was prime but my chile verde, which has always been great, was shredded pork/grease covered in green sauce. And my girlfriends enchiladas were. . . just bad. Bland with not much taste and seemed like the tortillas weren't fried or anything before the enchiladas were made. She and i only took one bite each of the enchiladas before we shared my chile verde. Hopefully this is a one time thing because El Pueblito is my go to choice for a sit down mexican style chain in the area

Love the food...music could be less anoying though

Never had a bad experience here! They have a friendly staff, fast service and their alcoholic drinks are great!

Really good food and a nice atmosphere. The service was fast and friendly and an endless supply of chips and really good salsa. The nacho plate was in the top ten for me with more than a enough food, I didn't leave hungry.

Good for AmeriMex chain style food. In fact for the Bella Vista / SoMo area they’re the best with decent food, good service, large servings and moderate prices. I prefer authentic Mexican food and El Pueblito dabbles in more authentic dishes but mostly it’s burritos, chimichangas and other adaptations. I understand to stay in business they had to adapt to the local taste, but the food was far better when they opened. Here’s hoping as BV grows they will be able to return to the original recipes.

Great food, good prices & friendly staff. One of our favorite places to eat!

Good, inexpensive Mexican restaurant. Good service and friendly staff and pleasant atmosphere.

We love eating here. We are from out of town but are getting married in Bella Vista and will have them cater our reception. The service is always spot on. Our chips were never empty and our glasses were always full. Even when they are slammed the owners step in to make sure everyone is taken care of.

I was really impressed with El pueblito. first time visiting and I'm with a group of older people celebrating birthdays and there's nothing that is harder on a server than having to deal with a bunch of cantankerous old people. Service was great our waiter took care of us made sure extras were gotten for the older couples who needed this and that. Food was excellent and the prices were more than reasonable I expected to drop in the neighborhood of around forty $50 and walked away having spent a little over 25. I plan on making this place a regular visit.

Great food! Good prices. Very clean restaurant. Friendly staff. It's a quaint place to eat with your family. Or if your just picking up a quick lunch you can order it and they will pack it up for you to pick up they even give you chips and dip with your order just as if you ate at the restaurant. The only reason I wouldn't give it 5 stars it's because the service was a little slow.

We always enjoy our experience here. The food and service are always great. Never had a bad meal at El Pueblito and the prices will not break the budget! We love dining here.

Out of town and loved it. Great staff and food. Fresh salsa.

Good food, good service and clean restaurant. It's worth the trip.

Good food, friendly, very clean, good prices. A little inconsistent with food (especially the queso on entrees).

This place is great! Food tastes awesome, salsa, I'm told, is very tasty, and they have a very good selection of items to order. I had the chicken burrito and it was delicious.

Food was pretty good. Service was very good.
