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.

Popped in for lunch while rain and sleet were falling outside and had one of the best Mexican meals we've had in a long, long time! We ordered the Chimichangas and the Quesadilla Rellena and they were phenomenal! The salsa was delicious, their produce was super impressive for any season, even more so for early, icy March! Even called to see if they were open in the snow amd ice, ready to go again.

Like your typical Tex-Mex restaurant but just better at everything. We tried the Mole de Pollo and Chili Verde and the flavored were just great. The mole sauce was thick with just a hint of chocolate. The verde was a vibrant green and very flavorful, maybe a little on the salty side. The servers and staff were all very polite and gave us samples of the top shelf margarita and the spicy salsa. Will definitely be back.

We've been to this location as all of its restaurant ventures, and today we dined on Mexican. It's still a nice restaurant, but they are still trying to acquire a liquor license, so there were no margaritas on this trip :( I liked that we were able to make up our own combo plate. I had a tostada and a taco with beans and rice. The rice was a little over cooked, but good. The menu is similar to other Tex-Mex and the decor is beautiful and colorful.

This is the place for good consistent Mexican food. The service is top shelf and the food is fresh. The lettuce and tomatoes are fresh, the salsa is fresh, the guacamole is fresh, and the chips are warm and fresh. I live nearby and Idolos has become a favorite go to for my family. After trying nearly all the offerings and margaritas, which are awesome, haven't had a bad thing or bad service. This is a great place for families and it won't break the bank either. The best Mexican food in Bartlett period.

It seems that there is a new Mexican Restaurant opening somewhere in and around Memphis at least once a month and here on the edge of Bartlett is the newest one. This building most recently housed Bruno's and a few years ago was home to the long standing Pig & Whistle. I've been to El Idolo four times now and have been impressed each time. We've done lunch as well as dinner and they're doing things right no matter what time you visit. The salsa is very fresh and has a nice amount of cilantro and spice. The chip are your typical thin "Restaurant Style " but are very good. My first visit I had Carnita's and it was close to the best I've had. It was a large portion of moist tender pork roast seasoned just right. I was also surprised with how well cooked and seasoned the refried beans were and they complimented the Carnita's very well. On one visit I had the Shrimp Quesadilla and was blown away at just how good it was. They use a very good chorizo that would have made a great quesadilla by itself. So far everyone I've been here with has enjoyed their meals as well. El Idolo offers good variety, good value and lots of flavor. The service has been friendly and consistent. This place is worth a visit or four.

Meet your next Taco Tuesday destination. The food is great and the staff is friendly and want to make sure you enjoy your time. The chips and salsa hit the table and the white cheese dip followed. Everyone found something great to order on a menu that was well organized. The kids menu is the best. All meals on the kids menu have pictures and are numbered for easy kid ordering. After stuffing our faces the owner stopped by our table, made a few jokes and took the time to ask us about our meal. You pay on your way out and can head next door to Freeman Park to walk it all off.

This restaurant was very impressive from the moment I walked through the door. The whole staff was on point. We were promptly greeted our drinks were never allowed to become completely empty. The server had a very good knowledge of the menu and even brought us some samples of other things we may like. The hot salsa was spicy but delicious. My wife got a quesadilla and it was large. The children's menu is diverse with pictures. I got the molcajete el idolo. This thing is huge. Enough to possibly feed 3. It was delicious. It comes in a sizzling bowl shaped like an Aztec animal. I'm a large man and had to take the rest home. I highly recommend this place and will definitely be returning.

This restaurant stands out among other Mexican restaurants in Bartlett. There are so many selections of appetizers that can be whole meals. There are combo dinners. I even saw steak on the menu. The salsa and chips there are super. The chips are light and crisp. The salsa is thick and mild. We had nachos with pulled chicken and ground beef. Their lettuce and tomatoes were fresh. The service was outstanding. We definitely plan to repeat this experience.

The Tomitillo sauce is a must have. (You have to ask for it I think.) The ingredients are so fresh. I loved the fish tacos, chicken soup, fajitas and taco el idolo. But my most favorite dish so far is the pollo fundido. Ingredients are very fresh and servings are extremely large!
