Ridiculously fast? Yeah, particularly the 'ridiculous' part. I've never been rushed through any meal quite like the last time I went to Laredo's. I think me and my dining companion were seated and back out the door in under a half hour. That's practically fast food-caliber fast. When my food is that fast, I don't really enjoy myself. I feel like I'm in a race to see who can cram the most Mexican food in their stomach first. I think maybe if I were going there for lunch on my work hour, I'd appreciate the fastness more.
That said, the food is always delicious and reasonably priced. I particularly enjoy their different flavors of margaritas. Also, they have good lunch specials.
