El Pueblito

Absolutely disgusting and the worst restaurant experience of my life at El Pueblito. Do NOT go here! I went in hoping for a decent lunch, but everything was a total disaster from the start. The table they sat us at was filthy! crumbs, sticky spots, you name it. The bathrooms were even worse: nasty dirty, gross, and clearly not cleaned regularly. Already off to a bad start. Then the food arrived cold and completely bland no flavor at all, like it had been sitting out forever. But the real nightmare? I found a hair right in my food. A long, disgusting hair mixed in there. I was so grossed out and absolutely disgusted that I couldn’t even eat another bite. When I told the server about it, the service was terrible rude, dismissive, zero apology, and they did nothing to fix it. No remake, no

I was in Caryville with my husband on a work trip and the hotel staff recommended this restaurant to us. It was WONDERFUL!! Mexican food is my favorite so it takes a lot to impress me but let me tell you, this was outstanding. The food was very authentic and taste way different than your average mexican restaurant. The salsa was amazing! We got the regular and the spicy salsa. Finding a truely authentic tasting Mexican restaurant is rare so this was a treat!!

I wasn't expecting to find Mexican food this tasty out in the mountains of Tennessee. As if the great food wasn't enough, the service was pleasant, our frozen boozy drinks were deliciously strong, and the prices were fair. Super happy with my decision to try this place!

My boyfriend and I were eating there tonight and everything went good as far as service and friendliness. We got our food quick as well but as we were eating my boyfriend started to mix his food up and found a full body dead cockroach in his food. We walked out and won’t be back!

I gave this place a 4 but it should probably be 3.5. The service was good and the food was served quickly. There are a lot of selections on the menu. I just don't think the flavor was anything special.
