I first tried El Pueblito in Centerton; it was delicious. This location in Bella Vista did not disappoint. The carnitas were perfect: crispy, flavorful, abundant, and warm (fresh). The flour tortillas were also still warm. The frijoles (beans) were tasty, and the rice was clean (not overly flavored-- very good). The guacamole with diced tomatoes had fresh lettuce and lots of jalapenos. No room for dessert! Looking forward to leftovers. Still have to try Rosita's across the line, but this is the spot for a Mexican food hankering in the BVV area. Wait staff were quick to respond, even when busy (packed!) around 530pm. The instability of the tables was palpable-- not gonna lie, so don't lean on them too much. Generous portions of chips and salsa (they even brought out a bowl of salsa verde con mas picante sabor). The horchata was excellent. Not too loud inside, and a welcome temperature to the blazing heat wave outside. Wait time was not bad, given the volume of patrons. Parking was voluminous in the shopping center. Five adults under $100 with tax (before tip) for fabulous food that defines sapidity-- a new favorite!
Parking: Plenty of spots; easy to maneuver. ~Michael
