1. Garcia's Mexican Restaurant
Overall Ratings

Next time u walk into your local restaurant, ask them. How fresh their meat, vegetables, and ingredients are. If their own staff not does not know the quality of the ingredients then more than likely the ingredients are frozen or pre-packaged, definitely

Visiting from Canada and after a full day of tours at Woodford Reserve and Buffalo Trace, we were hungry. We always consider the #1 restaurant on Trip Advisor and although we were thinking BBQ for the night, we had to try Garciaâs because of their rating. Excellent service right from the start and an expansive menu to choose from. I chose the Molcajete and my wife chose the Enchilada, and happy to report they were both outstanding. Mine was big enough to split between the two of us and it took the two of us to finish it off. Finished the meal with an ice cream filled tortilla which was really good as well. Only request to the chef would be to leave the lettuce off the plate for the guacamole and sour cream. Not needed. Would definitely eat here again if ever in town.

We eat at Casa Fiesta almost weekly. The food is served quickly and fresh by the most friendly staff you will ever meet. They have a great selection of meals on the menu and absolutely the best Margarita you will find. The owners and staff of Casa Fiesta treat everyone like family. It's a must try!

Chili's as a chain certainly has seemed to slip in customer service and even in menu over the past few years, and I'd heard they were going to "get back to the basics" - well, they are, at least in Frankfort KY....it's the wonderful, welcoming, warm experience that made us all love Chili's in the first place....the bartender/waitress was superb on 11/29 at around 5pm (sorry I can't recall her name for sure, but think it was Renee)...the most cheerful and attentive person ever, even though she had the bar, the bar floor, and some section outside the bar to wait....she was funny and engaging....and the manager actually stopped by our table and stayed to talk, instead of a perfunctory "how's it going?"....the food was excellent.....we couldn't have been more delighted with what has always been one of our favorite places to eat while traveling.....thanks Chili's Frankfort - you're doing it right!
