| - The truck stop itself is a bit scary. We stop there for gas often but never went in. I noticed a sign that said Latino Grill, which was intriguing and a bit baffling. "In there?" My husband and I speculated about it for a while and today decided to check it out.
There's a bunch of truckers and a single young woman behind the counter with a little grilling area. The menu is a bit grimy to touch, but otherwise looks like your usual Mexican. We got two tacos, chicken and beef, and a carne asada torta.
The meat was well cooked and surprisingly flavorful. Very simple, not alot of ingredients, but very tasty. The bread for the torta was soft and there wasnt alot of grisle-y bits. We were disappointed we hadn't gotten more to try.
Overall, the service was friendly, food was well priced, simple, and solid. After searching for good mexican in my area, I'm surprised that the most promising place is a run down truck stop.
Give it a try...but I suggest taking it to go.
