Reviews for Ruiz Castillo Mexican Restaurant in Wright City, MO

I dined alone. The food and service of my waitress was excellent. However, the owner came to greet every table, glanced in my... direction and kept moving. She did not greet me, though she rounded the area two or three times. What a shame that she did notsee me as worthy of her attention though I was a paying customer. Read more

The menu is fairly similar to most Mexican restaurants, but the quality of the ingredients and the preparation skill are... special. Their in-house made tamales are the best I've had in my life. The carnitas are also excellent. Even the chips andsalsa are a cut above - I think they also make them in house. And the service is friendly and efficient. My #1 go-to forMexican food. Read more

It was a Sunday afternoon and the service was good along with the food. Had not been there in quite awhile and was impressed.... The salsa was very fresh and our server gave us a pint to take home! Can't wait to go back again. Read more

Homemade empanadas might have been delicious if they were cooked properly. Outside was hot and over fried, inside was cold,... barely thawed temperature. ???? Salsa is very sweet. Guacamole poblano is filled with so much cilantro you can barely taste theavocado. Tortillas taste store-bought. And the rest of the food is solidly mediocre. Read more

The food is awesome and the service is very good. The servers are willing to make sure that your patronage is worth your time.... The margaritas are very good but a little pricey. We will continue to eat there. Read more

Salsa was the worst I've ever had. Tasted like it had ketchup in it. Fajitas were good. Service was bad. Waiter never came back... to table to ask if we wanted refills on drinks. Only to give us our bill. Probably won't return Read more

If they're new cook has started... I'm not too sure. Truly wasnt impressed this evening at all. In fact, it may be a while... before I return. I cook homemade Mexican food from scratch for my family... tonight was lacking flavor, the flavor that's beenthere for years.... just not sure. And the margaritas tasted flat... I was very disappointed. ???? Read more

I'm a trucker who stopped by as I was passing thru. I built my own platter with 2 chicken enchiladas and a beef taco. The... enchiladas were some of the best I've ever had. I will definitely stop by here again. I'd have left 5 stars, but I wasn't veryimpressed with their salsa that came with the chips. Read more
