I had a wonderful experience at The Whole Enchilada restaurant. The place was super clean, which I really appreciated, and there was plenty of parking available. I have to give a special shoutout to Nikki, an amazing staff member who made my first visit extra special by taking the time to explain the menu to me. The atmosphere here feels so homey and comfortable. I would definitely recommend this spot to anyone looking for a healthy dinner or snack, but who also wants traditional Mexican food, last, but not least this restaurant menu It’s very affordable —this is the place to go!

Fast service, food is fresh, consistent and comes out hot. Friendly staff. Parking can be a struggle during lunch so get there early, especially on Taco Tuesday. Always a lunch special available, priced well. Plenty of seating. Crowded at lunchtime.

Pretty neat spot with tons of options, nachos tacos burritos etc. family friendly with a cool inverted outdoor seating as well as indoor. Music is a bit loud but nothing crazy. And they have a salsa bar with plenty of options. I got the taco-dillas which were full of toppings and flavor.

Went to Parker Playhouse for a show. This place was across the street. Great spot for a quick bite before the show. Solid Mexican food. Beer and wine only. Decent menu. Had the Red Burrito which was pretty good. Nothing fancy but quite good.

I’m not sure I’ll be back. Unfortunately, the food was quite subpar and didn’t meet my expectations. However, the service was excellent. The gentleman working the front of house was fantastic—constantly on the move and making sure every customer, inside and outside the shop, was well taken care of. His attentiveness definitely stood out. Service 5/5 but the food brings quality brings overall score down.

My family stopped by to grad a take away order. I had the steak taco salad , my child had gringo tacos and her grandmother had a ground beef burrito (I don't have a review for the latter). My taco was as expected. Pretty basic, nothing out of the ordinary. I was, however, disappointed with how the was steak cut. Tiny bits of medium-well done steak that are individually too small to really convey any particular flavor, and certainly not an experience of note. With a name like The Whole Enchilada, I expected flavor and passion in my mouth. Also, visually, meat scraps isn't where it's at. My daughter had gringo tacos (I don't remember the menu description, but 3 basic tacos). No complaints. Also, they keep Capri Sun in stock. As a parent, I felt seen. The sauce bar, a dying site, was tidy and packed with interesting flavors. This trip, I was sticking with my comfort flavors, so I went with red hot sauce, pico and the green hot sauce. ALSO, shot out for including the sauce profile descriptions. I learned something that visit! I noticed beer, some specialty beer and maybe wine is sold. No liquor. The ambiance was terrific! This was Friday, early evening and nearly every seat was taken, families and friends were out laughing and taking in the vibe. There's a sundeck-like setup on the street side for people watching. Very lively, fun, open and friendly environment for friends, family, after work beer and tacos, a quickie girls night. Whatevs! The restroom is under lock and key, entry from the outside, unisex access. Generally, in decent enough shape. The staff was very friendly. My order was correct and completed in a reasonable amount of time.

We went with the tacos! We tried the Philly steak, mahi, skrimp, & beef tacos. The mahi had absolutely NO seasoning, completely bland. The skrimp was over cooked a little and also bland, the Philly was my favorite although that lacked flavor. The beef was completely disgusting and gave a weird aftertaste. Overall I was disappointed in every one of the tacos we tried and probably won’t return since that was our first experience.

Their tostada salad is one of a kind. The restaurant is really clean. The food is fresh. The mango sauce was my favorite. It doesn’t get better when it comes to Mexican restaurants. I totally recommend this location.
