    This place is the real deal! Delicious Mexican food in a clean environment. The employees are very friendly and efficient in their customer service! The food was so tasty and the guacomole is a must-have! My husband & I highly recommend Festival Mexican restaurant in Joplin MO.

    I was in the mood for a margarita...mine was on the rocks and super strong. My husband's margarita was blended and had no alcohol. Not a fan of that inconsistency. The food was very good. I had a chicken breast covered with cheese. It was cooked perfect and had great flavor. We will be back!

    I have heard nothing but rave reviews of Festival over the past several years, but I was less than impressed. My husband and I went in for an earlier dinner one Friday evening when they were not yet busy and our food was just okay. He really wished he'd gone to a couple of other local Mexican restaurants, and wasn't a fan of the shrimp in his shrimp chimichanga. I enjoyed my enchiladas very much, and the chicken one had a ton of chicken inside that was really nice & moist. But the beef quesadilla that came with my combination dinner was not something I would repeat. The beef was extremely tender chunks, like pot roast, and not fatty or tough, so that was nice but it wasn't seasoned or flavored at all. The cheese in the quesadilla was very unfamiliar to me and reminded me of a thick sticky paste. So much so, I left in on the plate and chalked it up to Cheese Mystery. For the record, I eat in dozens of Mexican restaurants every year across the entire Southwest so it's not a case of me just thinking every restaurant serves Kraft cheddar jack. It was odd sticky gummy cheese and unpleasant. The service was very friendly and quick. There were a LOT of servers standing around chatting (probably waiting for the dinner rush?) and the music was extraordinarily loud. I would return, but it's definitely not yet among my top five spots for Mexican in the area.

    Out of all the local Mexican restaurants, Festival is my favorite. We've never had a bad meal here. They have terrific guacamole, which is a must-do while waiting for your meal. I have tried a couple of things in the menu, but i always go back to the #9, which is a spinach enchilada and tamale. Sooo good! The spinach is sautéed nicely, a beautiful bright green. And the masa on the tamale has a wonderful flavor. We usually have great service, and in and out within a half hour or so. However, last weekend something was off and we didn't get waited on for awhile, then sat with an empty bowl of gauc for 15 minutes before we finally said we couldn't wait any longer for our meal as we had a movie to catch. This doesn't normally happen, so I know we will be back and fully expect everything to be just fine.

    Quaint, small place. Friendly and attentive service. Upon arrival we got a huge basket of very thin (yum) warm chips that melt in your mouth. The salsa was a little watery, but the chips were awesome. We had the lunch beef taquitos with rice and beans - all very good. We will stop by again when in town.

    This is one of the best Mexican eateries in Joplin (between here and Lalos. Let the debate begin). Nice beer selection on tap, good lunch and dinner specials, and great staff. Personal favorite: Tacos de Asada. Best $7 you'll spend.

    Our family goes to Festival a lot. Always good fast service. The food is consistently really good. Also the wait time is so good, I know I can go there for a quick, high quality meal anytime. The salsa is great but a little pricey if you get it to go. When you eat in, the food is at a great price. I highly recommend this place.

    Walked in with a party of 14. Seated in 3 mins, drinks ordered and served flawless. Mixed drinks were good and strong. Beers were a good value for size. FOOD WAS OUTSTANDING! And the prices blew me away! There were 3 families, but our family of 4 was $36.26! Wife said "some of the best mexican I've ever had". Nough said, just go try it.

    This is the perfect example of the American dream at work. The family that owns this turned a hole in the wall location into a highly sought after lunch venue on the East side of town, and eventually expanded into the entire building by buying out its neighbors (a liquor/smoke shop). Long gone is the tacky, used cafeteria furniture which has been replaced with beautiful interior design and authentic Mexican decor. The prices have stayed very reasonable, and the portions just as large as when it was a start up. Feel free to take your kids. The owners' daughter is very friendly and often acts the hostess, seating guests and just looking cute in general. I'm really proud of what they've done with the place, and wish them all the success in the world! Festival!!!

    The $4 nachos are $6 with tax now but they are still a great deal. This place is all around great!!

Mexican Cuisine

If you enjoy Taco Tuesday, then you have officially fallen in love with the Mexican Food. The main grain of Mexican cuisine is maize. Also known as corn, maize is grown for the past 9000 years after the crop was discovered by the people in Mayan civilization. Mexican empire flourished when they started growing beans, tomatoes, chili pepper, sweet potato and cactus. Till this date these ingredients are used in cooking authentic Mexican dishes and drinks.

Great use of spices, fresh chili pepper dishes like fajitas, tortilla chips, corn chips, salsa, chimichangas, burritos, nachos and quesadillas are invented in America. But when you are looking for authentic Mexican food then you must find a restaurant in the city that serves Rajas con Queso, Garbanzo in a Guajillo Chile Sauce, Pork Filled Chiles Rellenos, Chiles en Nogada, Molcajete Salsa, Pico de Gallo and Frijoles de la Olla. An eye-opening fact – Mexican don't like their food hot. They use fresh chili and other spices to create a flavor that lingers in your mouth.

Mexican food is great for those who are Gluten Intolerant as they use Corn instead of wheat in most of their dishes. Also, you can easily find many beans based Mexican dishes. Another dish which didn't get similar glory as tacos or nachos is the Mexican hot chocolate. If you love something hot on a chilly day, then go for Mexican Hot Chocolate. On merry days, you can enjoy the authentic Mexican Drinks like Tequila, Mezcal, Tecuí, Sotol, Bacanora, Charanda, Posh O Pox, Puebla and Pulque. Mexican Cuisine is for people who enjoy strong drinks and hearty meals.
