Never but tamales from here! I was totally ripped off! I ordered a dozen tamales and picked it up on the way home from work. My order cost 48.00!!!!!!! But I thought 3 for 10.99, they must be huge and I would have dinner, lunch and then freeze the rest. When I open the container the tamales were dried up, broken and very small. It looked like they had salvaged some off of others plates. Horrible!!!! I got me good. But never again!! You've been warned.

Nelo's is the best Mexican food in McMinnville. Roberto and his staff are on another level compared to the others. Food is high quality and fresh. Great folks as well.

Service was terrible. Waited for service while seated for close to an hour. Food was decent at best. Will not be back.

Staff was very friendly and prompt in service. Every staff member we encountered was polite and maintained a warm, welcoming demeanor.The interior and decor is a bit underwhelming. While I realize that the atmosphere in the environment is important, the staff and food make up for the dated interior. However, the booths, tables, and chairs appeared to be quality and were branded with the Nelo's name and a picturesque view on the table tops.Our server was quick to take our drink order and bring out chips and salsa. The salsa seemed to be homemade and not store bought, which in my opinion, is a must for any good Mexican restaurant. The queso was delicious as well, it was creamy, but not overly thick, with a bit of heat.The price point for everything, including seafood and steak items, was very reasonably priced.My husband had the steak fajitas and I had Pollo Reyna. Both of our food arrived together, hot and fresh. The portion size was bigger than expected, but the quality of the food was exceptional. The veggies in the fajitas were vibrant and appeared fresh, the steak was tender and flavorful. The typical side items that came with the meal were rice, pico de gallo, guacamole, refried beans, lettuce, and sour cream. Again, the freshness of the veg items used was apparent. The guacamole and beans were house made and very flavorful.The chicken I received was thin, but tender, juicy, and very flavorful. Chorizo was a bit charred on top which brought a nice crisp texture to the rest of the dish.Another detail we appreciated was the softness of the tortillas that were provided with the meal. Not sure if they were house made or not, but they were soft and didn't have an overly processed taste like store bought.Our total was just over 32 dollars, for 2 entrees, queso, and 2 beverages. If you haven't tried it, you should go and discover your new favorite Mexican restaurant in the area.Parking: Parking space was ample, clearly marked, easy to navigate.
