My wife and I have eaten at several Mexican restaurants and we agreed that Romo's is so far the best. The prices were on par, but the servings were much bigger than other places. The staff was friendly, but I do wish they had asked about my Dr, Pepper refill just 1 time. My wife ordered the vegetarian taco salad without mushrooms, it had mushrooms. She took them out, it was just human error. So nothing to get upset over. The food was good, I had a medium Margareta, next time small. You get a lot of food for the price, and as I said the staff was nice. We'll go back, I think it will be our Mexican restaurant of choice. Next time I'll take my son & daughter-in-law she is Latino and they both speak Spanish. I recommend it.

Everything was fantastic. We stopped in on our trip home to Kentucky. We were seated when we walked in and our server arrived right after. The high chairs were adorable and our wild child boy actually sat in it— I think it helped that it made him feel like he had his own little table like us! The coke was better than McDonald’s or Chick Fila (iykyk) The salsa and queso was delicious. Our food didn’t take too long to arrive. It was well seasoned! I am sure this is a usual spot for the locals. I wish we had a Mexican restaurant this good in our town.

We went here for my son‘s graduation lunch. We had a party of 20 and our server was amazing! Everyone was able to get refills on drinks and anything that we asked for was delivered immediately. We will definitely be going back and had a wonderful time. Food was incredible. I really did enjoy the fresh guacamole!

This is the best restaurant I have been to. The food is delicious, I have tried a lot of Mexican restaurants in other states, and this is the only one I like and will return to. I have been going here since they opened, They have the best margaritas ever. My husband and I usely get the fajitas and molcajete to share. Sometimes, he will get the chili Colorado or tamales, and I will get the fajita nachos. They are all delicious. Our son loves the fajitas and chicken and shrimp fajita nachos.They have the best chesse dip, and I love the queso fundido. The prices and portions are great, and the severs are really nice and friendly. I highly recommend this restaurant.
