Restaurant details
Reviewed 1 July 2015 via mobile

This is my favorite Mexican restaurant. But here lately I have been getting the Mexican hamburger. Oh my gosh! I'm in love! Big juicy burger with melted cheese and jalapeños on this sweet home made bun. I can only eat half so I take the other half home with me. They come with French fries.
You have to try their charro beans. Wonderful! My husband always gets the full dinner. Way too much food!
Their stuffed avocados with chicken are yummy! I have never had a bad meal here.

I have eaten at Monterey's in Bartlesville many times and it is always good. The spinach enchiladas are really good as is the Cancun chicken. The kids really like it as well.

The food is almost always very good. Like everywhere else their prices are a little on the high side but it's okay for a couple of times a month. I suggest going during lunch for their specials.Smaller portions so be forewarned. Larger portions in evenings but also more $$. I don't drink so I can't comment on their liquors or beers. Queso and house salsa is very good. Chips are good and served hot & fast. They do offer a lighter menu which some Mexican restaurants do not. My family and I usually eat here a couple of times a month. Fast service and mostly friendly wait people.

I ordered something not on the menu. I asked if I could get a wet bean burrito, had to explain way "wet" is. What I received was a tiny burrito with about a tablespoon of beans. It was covered in ok cheese sauce. I guess I shouldn't complain as the burrito was cheaper than my tea. The chips were pasty and the salsa was similar to ketchup. AWFUL! Never again.

The food is good but I actually prefer Senor Salsa these days. This place used to be my favorite, but the last couple of visits was somewhat of a disappointment.
