Mexican Cuisine
If you enjoy Taco Tuesday, then you have officially fallen in love with the Mexican Food. The main grain of Mexican cuisine is maize. Also known as corn, maize is grown for the past 9000 years after the crop was discovered by the people in Mayan civilization. Mexican empire flourished when they started growing beans, tomatoes, chili pepper, sweet potato and cactus. Till this date these ingredients are used in cooking authentic Mexican dishes and drinks.
Great use of spices, fresh chili pepper dishes like fajitas, tortilla chips, corn chips, salsa, chimichangas, burritos, nachos and quesadillas are invented in America. But when you are looking for authentic Mexican food then you must find a restaurant in the city that serves Rajas con Queso, Garbanzo in a Guajillo Chile Sauce, Pork Filled Chiles Rellenos, Chiles en Nogada, Molcajete Salsa, Pico de Gallo and Frijoles de la Olla. An eye-opening fact – Mexican don't like their food hot. They use fresh chili and other spices to create a flavor that lingers in your mouth.
Mexican food is great for those who are Gluten Intolerant as they use Corn instead of wheat in most of their dishes. Also, you can easily find many beans based Mexican dishes. Another dish which didn't get similar glory as tacos or nachos is the Mexican hot chocolate. If you love something hot on a chilly day, then go for Mexican Hot Chocolate. On merry days, you can enjoy the authentic Mexican Drinks like Tequila, Mezcal, Tecuí, Sotol, Bacanora, Charanda, Posh O Pox, Puebla and Pulque. Mexican Cuisine is for people who enjoy strong drinks and hearty meals.

I'm from Southern California, and I loved this food. I am used to slightly more authentic Mexican food, but this was still delicious. I loved their homemade salsas, and the owner was adorable.

I am really surprised by the poor reviews as this is an excellent Mexican restaurant. Coming from Texas and having spent time in Mexico the food here is very authentic. The fish tacos were great. The taco meat tastes like a higher quality hamburger, not the cheap stuff. Prices are good and you get an ample amount of food. My only ding: salsa not hot enough...but it is Iowa, so I'm sure they are tempering it a bit due to the region. We have eaten there three times and will be back.

Came here for lunch during my last full day in the Great Lakes region along with my friend. Yes, service errs a bit on the slow side, hence the 3 star rating instead of a 4 star rating. Other than that, I had a fine time here. Even if the service was a little slow, the hospitality we had received from the staff was top-notch. I believe the owner of the restaurant was also going around, asking if everybody was enjoying their time there, and she was an absolute sweetheart. I had their quesadilla roja platter along with some sort of small dish on the side that was also wrapped up in a tortilla and smothered in red sauce and cheese. My friend had their chicken mole, which she had fond memories of having when she was growing up in the region. The food portions were humongous and all in all, the food actually tasted pretty good. It may not be very authentic Mexican food, but that doesn't always make food taste good or bad to me. What's more important, to me, is how the dish comes together in the end, and in this case, the flavors all came together well enough for me. Though, I will say, since this is Mexican fare, it's a bit on the heavy side. Just something to keep in mind ;)

Went and placed an order to go. Once home realized we did not receive out complete order. Also a few of the orders we had were not correct. Tried to call and talk to the restaurant about the issue they said they would not refund the cost of the meals we did not get. Will not be back.

I've been here two times. Both were good. the service was great. the food took us a while to get though. Despite this I really enjoy the atmosphere and all the fountains; it's a Mexican restaurant in the classical sense, it doesn't take itself too serious like some other "high class" Mexican restaurants I've been to- which i like. The food, to me tasted very authentic, fresh and natural. The foods spice and flavor really comes from the sauces you put on; So don't forget to ask for some bottles of different sauces. If it is a nice day try eating outside it enhances the experience and they have huge pots of beautiful flowers everywhere. Overall a very chill place with good food for a decent price.

Love the Alambre Pueblo dinner, great tortilla chips, and Florencia, is a lovely person and hostess.

10 of us from Minneapolis, Chicago and Southern California. We really, really liked Los Pueblos. The prices are good, the portions are generous and the flavors outstanding. Highly recommended.

AMAZING FOOD! Loved it so much. The daiquiris and margaritas are really good. Everything was amazing. Wished we could have given it 5 stars, HOWEVER. We had just had our plates cleared and were ready to order dessert for Father's Day when the waiter asked us to move to another table because they needed our table for a bigger party. Come on, really? I've had to wait at restaurants before so couldn't those people have waited a little bit?

It's truly not fair for a Phoenician from the SW to review a Mexican restaurant in Iowa. The look and feel are authentic, but that's about where it ends. Positives: They give you the chips and salsa, have very good service and have a full bar! Negative: Smelled antiseptic (can a place be too clean?) should smell like food not cleaner. Food marginal.
(2)Kay L.
We had nachos and a beer. Everything was really good and, when the staff accidentally cleared our table too soon (we'd only gone to the bathroom), they made another plate of nachos. Would lobe to eat a full meal sometime.

The live music drew us in, but it started off with the wait staff seemed like it was an incontinence to help us. The menu gave us an option with chicken or beef but we couldn't see any in the food we ordered. The liquor less margarita ended the night. We had to walk up to the register to get our bill and when asked " how was everything" our faces showed we were less than happy and the owner didn't say anything.

DON'T GO!!! I am applaud with the service (not friendly or knowledgeable, even rude). Also, the food was very disappointing! I ordered the supreme nachos: portion of food was pitiful and it was completely bland - no flavor at all. This place is mediocre at best and not a good value. Please support other local Mexican restaurants in the area... There are several authentic Mexican restaurants that put this place to shame and I would know because I live in Southern California and eat authrntic Mexican food all the time. I'm very disappointed... Extra note, In a very friendly manor I asked the manager if I could give her some constructive feedback and she was extremely rude and defensive. Please stay away from this place, I would hate for others to experience what I did.

Absolutely delicious! The food is authentic and the service is excellent. I'm from Los Angeles, and this is some of the best Mexican I've had. highly recommend! And the fajitas are to die for!

After an hour and 40 minute wait, they finally asked me what I had ordered. Frustrated, I got up and left as did many other tables. Slow service and I hear the food isn't that great anyway.
(1)John N Peggi O.
One of the best Mexican restaurants in the lakes area. Two types of free salsa and chips.
(4)Megan M.
We absolutely love this place! The wait staff and manager were very friendly and their margaritas are to die for (and HUGE!) I would highly recommend el mejor because it has a little bit of something and the combination fajitas are great and you get a lot of shrimp with them. This is a local favorite and we visit at least twice a month!
(5)Diane U.
The best Mexican food in Okoboji. They serve two different style salsas with the chips. There are also two different bottles of hot sauce on the table, one of them really spicy. The portions are typical of a Mexican restaurant. The favors are spot on and the place is clean.

I wish to take issue with the Southern Californian and the Phoenician reviewers who bashed Los Pueblos. If one wants to throw geographical weight to define one's culinary appreciations, believe me I can do it, but to do so is gouche. The one reviewer complains about the blandness of the food. A seasoned visitor to Mexican restaurants knows to ask for "salsa picante" in order to bring out the favors of the food. We had no fewer than four fresh salsa choices from which to choose, ranging from a mild, fresh salsa with onion and cilantro to a salsa made from tomatillos and avocado. In between were two hot and hotter salsas (of course, they can never be too hot, as far as I am concerned) made from a range of dried peppers that complemented the dish we chose, "El Grande." It consisted of platter of chicken chalupa, made from a generous and tender smattering of chicken topped with fresh salad, tomato and guacamole, soft chicken tacos, which our child gobbled down with eagerness, chile relleno, which contained a perfectly crusted poblano and a right amount of melted cheese within, a cheese enchilada (which was one item that I felt was extraneous and not the best presentation ... Too many calories and too little flavor) and a chicken burrito with a salsa with hints of mole. As to the second reviewer referenced above who complained about the restaurant being too clean ... really? The staff was pleasant, our server checked on us frequently and cleared plates in a timely manner, and the restaurant was decorated beautifully inside and out with plenty of easy parking. A good solid restaurant!

If I could post zero stars on this review, I would. We were seated and waited for over an hour without even getting waters or chips. Talked to multiple employees multiple times about having a waitress come to get our drink orders. We were seated with food, plates, and drinks still on the table from the previous customers. Terrible service, who knows how good the food is. We ended up walking out and getting Casey's pizza. Do not waste your time here.
(1)Gerald M.
Not good. The beef steak in the tacos was so dry and flavorless I couldn't eat it. My first time there will be my last.
(1)Tamika M.
We love this place. AUTHENTIC! The service is great and the people are also sweet. Every time we dine there, the manager stops by and speaks with us. The cook always make my children sopapillas at the end if our meal.
(5)JK S.
First visit was last night. Good margaritas. The waiter brought two different salsas with chips and I mixed them for a good taste with a little kick. I had the chili rellenos which were two big poblanos with rice and beans. Had plenty left for lunch today. If you like extra spicy, be sure to have them bring the Roja or Verde sauces. Plan to return.
