“There are a few locations that I trust with my tacos. And sadly, that list is getting smaller and smaller.But this place. This place has done them right everytime for years. Every time we come here, not only are we just amazing at the quality of the meat and the freshness of the food, we are shocked at how cheap it is. Go to Taco Bell and get a taco for the SAME PRICE as an authentic taco from here.Don't waste your time with other locations, just come here and have great foodDietary restrictions: Kosher“

“Food is so good. We love going because our kids will eat all of their meals. However, The last time we went there was a soccer game on and our server was hard to find unless we went into the other room to let him know we needed water. This is unusual and did make us feel disappointed because we know how much better it can be.“

“Speedy Burritos has good food at a good price! The service is excellent! You may have a primary server, but it really seems like everyone works together to make sure you're well taken care of. And the name "speedy" is very fitting! For my own amusement (and the amusement of the friend who recommended Speedy Burritos), I clocked them from the time we walked in to the time our food hit the table at just under 10 minutes. Half the time I can't get fast food that fast!So, for good Mexican food that is either on par or out paces any fast food joint in price, speed, and service, Speedy Burritos is a great choice!“

“(story at the end) Jan. 27 - Wow! This place is amazing! Definitely not your typical La Fiesta. You walk in and get in a line, then you tell the person in front of you what you want and what you would like on it, and wow. I have never had Mexican Food Like this! Now for the story... I was with my grandma and my cousin, and we where in line getting food. We struck up this conversation with a father and his son, and he asked if we have ever been here before, and we said no. (We are from a small town near Fort Smith) He continued to make his food and we did too. When we got to the end of making our food, the cashier told us "You see that kind man right there? He paid for y'all's food." I turned around and the dad and son went out the door. If he is reading this right now, thank you! We came up here with a little bit of money to go on a Girls Trip, and you really helped us! Tell me that's not the Lord working his magic. We could've gone to any other restaurant, but we went there. We could've stood in front of any other person, but he was there. We just want to say thank you!??“

“The first time I tried to have dinner there it was like walking into the twilight zone the way everyone looked at us like my and my family was from another planet!! And the second time was better but we felt cramped up the restaurant needs to be back into its old building where there was plenty of room for more people and where not hitting eachothers elbows !!! Other than that food is delicious ( especially the cheese dip ?Parking: Just very little parkingKid-friendliness: They are very nice to kids makes them feel welcome ?“

“OMG...What an experience me and my date had here. The chips was amazing and hot and I can't remember chips that good. The salsa was great but with the chips exceptional. We ordered the blackened chicken fajitas with extra setup and this is my new go to fajitas. We ordered the white queso and we don't get this good of queso even in Northwest Arkansas. The food was just an amazing experience. Our server name was Hayden, if you get a chance and you like great service when you come in ask for this guy. This guy never stops and he's always taking care of what you need at your table. The food was a great experience but with the service made this the best restaurant experience I've had in over 20 years easy. Next time we want Mexican food we will drive 60 miles to eat here from Northwest Arkansas.“
