| - First off let me say great vibe! Good authentic music and decor, they made the best of a small place. The food however, could use a little work. Not saying it's bad or makes you sick, certain dishes can be rather bland or mushed together. Let me explain more:
Service - Vert good, waitstaff is attentive and service is quick. I work just across the parking lot and having my lunch there takes 30 minutes easy.
10/10
Food / Drink Quality - First with the good, the drinks. They are well made and reasonably priced. The food however is hit or miss. My first time there I ordered the chimichanga. I had a hankering for deep fried burritos, problem was the presentaion was very sloppy and the lettuce/ sauce drenched the chimi so there was no crunch left. Ive learned to ask for specifics as to save the deep fried goodness. The beans seem watered down and runny and the beef is mixed with potatoes, hiding any kind of spice. Their authentic dishes are decent but there isn't much variety outside of tex-mex. The beef tips are well seasoned however.
6.5/10
Price - Although the food needs a little work, the prices and portions are decent. The lunch specials are great for a cheap and hot meal, just avoid the potato beef. Get chicken or steak, its worth the extra 75 cents.
8/10
Experience - The vibe is great, love the decor and waitstaff. Very good. Seemes a little cramped in the booth section.
9/10
Overall 33.5/40 - I like Laredos but I like at least 5 other places in Madison more, much better than Taco Bell, just under Cancun.
