We went to El Cuñado in Springdale for lunch today. It’s turning out to be one of my favorite Mexican restaurants in NWA.
We walked in, and it was PACKED. There were two other non-hispanics in the restaurant - two older white women, sipping on Cokes.
They received their order, and started to arrogantly argue with the waitress. We heard them say, “Those are NOT tacos.” VERY condescending. I guess they were expecting the taco bell variety of fried hard-shell corn tortillas, instead of the open face, soft tortillas served with radishes and cilantro.
Imagine going into a restaurant filled with Mexicans and telling them that they don’t know what a taco is.
They got up to leave and pay, and they were told they didn’t have to.
It’s a shame. They missed out on the best tacos in NWA.
We ordered, and dived into the Salsa Verde and Rojo. I had the Cubana Torta. It was really good.
