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.

Chipotle is much better. Nice staff OK food... everything needs some salt and spices.

The 1 good thing about Salsaritas Fresh Cantina (SFC) is that it's not Taco Bell. Now whether or not that's a good thing i'm still trying to determine. I would say that I average once or twice a month dining here. Granted it's not the best Mexican food out there but I get to pick my own ingredients. Honestly, that's not saying much. Nonetheless, In my usual fashion I'll start with what I don't like about the place: In a nutshell I don't think that I've ever been to this place when there have been more than 5 tables occupied. What I don't get is that when I go up to the counter they have enough food to feed the fifth grade at the local Rutland Elementary. The problem is that the food is sometimes over cooked and looks dried up and Goopy in the buffet table. What I don't get is that while they have very few customers the meat is always mounded over the top of the hot holding compartment and it sits out all day with no cover. This service style is modeled after Chipotle but it Can't compare to that level of food and here's the reason it will never come close. * the place is hardly every spotless (considering it is never busy this should be an easy task) * Too much food is prepared ahead of time * No details in the condiments (i.e. take the stems off the cilantro before you chop it!!) * Odd specials that are more American-Mex then authentic. This boggles me as i feel that Salsarita's doesn't know what it is (i.e. is it Taco Bell or Chipotle style?) * Food Science: when you heat a piece of protein for a long time it will eventually lose it's ability to retain heat for a longer period hence I always feel that my food is cold by the time I start eating. * DETAILS: ( when I first started writing this review months ago there really was no competition for Salsarita's In the Mt Juliet area). if SFC wishes to remain in the competition they will need to subscribe to the mantra "the devil is in the details". Maybe a small paintbrush to touch up the spots of flaky paint on the cement counters or a nice coat of wax on the wood tables... While I admit to dining at SFC about a couple times a month I have to say that my dining days here are waning with the addition of Blue Coast Burritos across the street. Unfortunately SFC has had plenty of time to figure out what's wrong with the place and make changes appropriately. My primary reason for dining there was that I didn't really have this type of option in the area. Overall I wouldn't say the food is all that bad and it got me through some burrito jonesin' times afterall it is quite convenient to visit SFC because of its location. The service level almost seems to have improved when the other burrito joint broke ground across the street - maybe coincidental. But overall the ingredients are cheap as is the price of a meal here so it's not out completely for me. There are still some improvements that SFC can continue to make and I'm confident that the management will take notice as the restaurant gets less and less business due to the local competition. I'll be back in another month or two to check it out.

Great concept, okay food, too pricey for what you get, and rude staff. I love the "design your own food" concept like Chipotle, and Blue Coast Burrito, but what you get for the cost and quality leaves much to be desired. When I went it was staffed by kids who were very open about their disdain for their job. Wish Mount Juliet would get a Chipotle. My money would be better spent there on quality food from quality ingredients at a fair price. Clean.

Based on the food alone, i would have given this a single star. My burrito could have been good. I picked what looked like good ingredients; however, the meat was cold, the tomatillo sauce they poured over it was chilled and the service from the people making it was sub par. My husband's tacos also had cold meat in them and he had three different kinds of meat. Also, his tacos were runny... As in when he picked them up, watery liquids poured out of them. Not a good experience food-wise. Neither of us ate more than half of our food. The only reason we gave them two stars is because when the manager stopped by to check on us, we told him our issues and were immediately given our money back. I could then see that he changed out the meat on the hot bar. So hopefully our critique helped the people ordering after us receive a better meal than we did. While I appreciate that we did not pay for food we barely touched, I don't think I will be giving them another chance. There's far better food out there to spend my hard-earned money on and I'd rather go someplace where I know I will enjoy my meal.

My overall reaction: "meh." The steak tasted rubbery and old, the guacamole had no flavor, and the food was WAY overpriced considering the quality of the products used. The decor and ambience of the restaurant is fantastic, but the food itself is just not worth a second trip. If you want quick mexican food, I'd recommend Baja Burrito, Blue Coast Burrito or even Chipotle.

Not all that grand, but not a terrible time. I have to agree with Johnny G. On how the food appears. When I ordered I looked at everything and just settled on the beef cause the other protein looked like it had been there awhile and was in need of refreshing! I got the two taco combo, not excellent, but ok! I could eat here again, but it probably will not be anytime soon! I just didn't see anything on the menu that impressed me to come back so soon. Now everyone has their own opinion of what they like about dining out. This is just my opinion, your time here could be a different experience altogether. Whether that be better or worse is the question???

i love "subway style burrito" places, but i will NEVER go back to this specific one again. the service was horrible, the sense of apathy and lack of caring from the workers was a put-off, and after a problem with our meal, i also learned the manager cares nothing about customer service. i'm normally super laid back and easy going--i've had servers spill a complete cup of water on my meal before and still tipped 20%, i've had a worker at another similar style burrito place drop my entire order on the flower during my rushed lunch break and still been perfectly pleasant and patient during the remake, but, this manager was just rude. maybe he was having a bad day, but, it was such a miserable experience all the way around, i won't return to this one. the food was pretty decent, but more expensive then other burrito places (and not worth it); i much prefer the pleasant atmosphere of moe's, and will gladly drive out of my way to go there instead of salarita's.

I had the chicken tacos. Was ok, nothing spectacular. The chicken tasted like it had too much spice almost salty tasting. The service was good.

You get what you pay for. Staff is friendly, food is average but fast. We have a little one and she likes coming here (especially the cookie in the kids meal). Works well if you need something fast while in the area.

food is good... u can choose ur own toppings... the veggie bowl was awesome... my daughter loved the cheese quesadilla a lot...

The rating about sums it up....There is no reason to go to a place like Salarita's when you can just as easily frequent Cinco de Mayo or another one of the Mexican joints around here.
(2)Kenny H.
Kind of better than Taco Bell, but not quite as good as regular mexican restaurants, and about the same price it seems. But, I had a coupon, so what the hey

Like the "Create Your Own Adventure" books from childhood, the meal you will enjoy at Salsarita's Fresh Cantina is quite frankly up to you. Sure, the atmosphere is a bit gaudy, with the almost-adobe walls and the slightly too loud salsa music; however, the menu is really the draw. There is a bar chock-full of trimmings and toppings, you can custom order your meal however you please. A chicken burrito with chicken, olives and guacamole - check! Beef nachos with cheese, rice and beans? Got it. Vegetarian tacos brimming with garden-fresh goodies? It's all there! Also, if you know what you want ahead of time, feel free to call it in. They will have it ready for you when you get there, and then you won't have to spend the rest of the afternoon getting la musica out of your head.

I've always called it Subway-style mexican food. Kind of like Qdoba but not as uppity. They offer catering and eating there is great because it's a nice atmosphere.
