I ordered the carnitas. The plate was overflowing and I was unable to finish more than a third, but later that evening my dog reaped the benefits and wolfed down his carnitas-enhanced kibble. Served with rice and beans, guacamole, jalapenos on the side, and three flour tortillas, it was the best meal I've had in ages!
2. Las Flores Mexican Restaurant

This is the best restaurant in Indianola. Great food, great friendly service, pleasant atmosphere. It is authentic Mexican, far beyond the usual taco/burrito stuff. My favorite is the El Toriado, which is grilled steak, chicken, shrimp and bacon over rice with a fine sauce. That cost $12 and be ready to ask for a box to take home what you can't eat. The drinks are great as well. It seems to be a family operation with two or three generations seating patrons, waiting tables and cleaning up. They all seem delighted you're there. It's a fine place and we've never been disappointed.
3. Taco John's
At Taco John's®, we serve traditional Mexican food-with a twist. By fusing bold American flavors with south-of-the-border spice, we've defined our signature menu. From our trademark Potato Olés® and freshly prepared tacos to our infamous breakfast burrito

Perhaps the experience is different if you arrive when the kitchen is actually cooking something. When I arrived at 4:24 p.m. on a Saturday 'everything' was scooped up from under the heat lamps. My "Super Nachos" were served in direct contrast to their name, with the nachos at the bottom being as soggy and floppy as wet noodles. The common thread with the food I purchased was "Potato Ole's" which I've been buying from other restaurants for decades...they were under-cooked, as in so blonde as to be towheaded as a young Dutch child, adorable on children, vile on deep fried foods...especially "potato ole's". According to the locals I spoke with after, the ole's natural form is often off-white yellowish in color. If you want fast "Mexican Food" try another franchise.
