    Restaurant was clean and the atmosphere was nice. The wait staff was pleasant and attentive. My water glass remained full and we never ran out of chips; however the positives stop here. I am from San Antonio, I have had the best Mexican around, so my expectations were already low. They seemed to manage to lower them even more. A co-worker (from Louisville) suggested that we go there for lunch. I got the fajita nachos (steak/chicken). Who covers fajita meat with taco seasoning and queso? No pico, shredded lettuce, guacamole, jalapeño, nothing. I was so disappointed that I skipped supper; stomach ache from all the taco seasoning. The food was prompt and I must say my co-worker's chimichanga looked good. What doesn't look good fried though? The bill was $8 and some change. I am not a finicky eater (that's my wife) but I couldn't wait for the meal to be over; my co-worker talks too much but mainly it was the food.

    Ambiance: Nice family sit-down restaurant with fun hispanic architecture indoors with arches and a pastel white color scheme. There's even a mural indoors. Service was good although our waiter did ask us our orders twice after writing it down, that was the only hiccup. Food: I got the lunch #12 which is marinaded chicken, rice and avocado salad all of which were pretty disappointing. The dish came with 3 thin strips of chicken which were crisped on a stovetop and covered with a tomato chili sauce. The problem was that the pieces were soo thin the chicken dried out and had the texture of leather, I had to saw through it with my knife. The avocado salad was chopped lettuce, a cross-sectional slice of white onion, 2 slivers of avocado and a tiny lime. Along with the flavorless rice, I found nothing enjoyable about the meal. As a lover of Mexican food I can't recommend this place at all given the poor cooking technique, poor dish composition and bland flavors.

    It's one of those Mexican restaurants that pours lots of cheese on everything and the guacamole comes out of a big bucket in the back (don't know what's really in it). The beans and rice were bland. I ordered a Chile relleno, not sure where the poblano was at. There were like two bites of the pepper and the rest was ground beef and way too much melted cheese. If you like real Mexican food don't eat here. I had quite a bit of my meal left and my husband asked if I wanted a takeout box and I told him no way, not worth the effort. I asked my husband how his fajitas were and his comment was"not terrible". We had been at the hospital so it had been about 10 hours since we had eaten but even that didn't make it more palatable.

    After not eating there in 5 years due to I live in Oregon now. I took my husband there while visiting family back in September. The place has changed sooo much! They have remodeled but not for the best. It still have a very very small entrance and now a very small sitting area...not sure what why they remodeled?? I will say that the service and food was still excellent. We actually ate there several times before we left Kansas to come back home :D

    After back country camping and hiking the Elk River trail we were hungry. We saw El Pueblito on our drive in and discussed how good mexican food would be while eating freeze dried food at our camp site last night. We stopped in and were greeted politely and immediately upon entering. Great service and kind staff! I ordered enchilada and taco, my husband a burrito. The food met our expectations and our chips and salsa and drinks were filled regularly!

    Independence Kansas is a miserable excuse for a town were under 8000 people live out their lives in total obscurity. Dead people have more of a pulse and the pace of life is much akin to the viewing of flies fornicating. El Publito's by all accounts could be called "A dive mexican joint on the edge of a town that time forgot". It is truly one of life's mysteries how the worlds best Queso AND Chili Rellanos ended up here. .....on reflection I guess it's only fitting that a town like Independence has such a culinary claim to fame, lest the town be so completely lame is is pulled into the ebon void of non-being.

    Kinda mediocre Mexican food. Not bad. But not great either. Their guacamole kinda looks like colored sour creme.

    Locals love this place, and it's a big hangout. But then, Wal-Mart is a big hangout in Independence. Most haven't had or wouldn't care for real mexican food. The food here is just ok to awful. There are a few decent dishes and the salsa is ok. But, Taco Bell would be a better choice.

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.
