Their tacos, was ok, just very small

by steveb19731

I mean for a taco, the food wasn't bad. Was tasty. But I am still trying to figure out where the rest of it was. If I spend $6 on a "deal" I don't expect one little taco (yes the tacos were the size of a regular taco at taco bell) and a small serving of tortilla chips and salsa and a drink. For that price they should be giving you 3 tacos. Still trying to also figure out why it took so long to make that tiny little thing.

The queso dip is to die for.

by vhb

I have been going to this restaurant for about 8 years now and I NEVER get tired of it! The staff comes and goes which is typical for an inexpensive restaurant so some of them are great and some aren't. Overall they are friendly enough but I could care less because I love the food so much. It's cheap - my meal is usually around $6 which is a "Dillo Deal" = taco, chips & queso, drink. The chips are delicious but I definitely come here for the queso. It varies in consistency and spice but is always great. The chips are wonderful, not too salty. I always get a chicken soft taco which is delicious but not huge (don't expect a Qdoba sized burrito). I also get the nachos or buffalo wings sometimes which are both great! Also - get a strawberry frozen margarita, yummmm and different from anywhere else. Overall I think that the fact that I usually get it at least once a week and I've been going there 8+ years means you get the point. It's cheap, fast and DELICIOUS!

What a waste of a lunch

by Tony Crosetti

My friends and I come up to Raleigh for Veteran's day celebration and stuck around the following day for lunch.

I served 3 tours in Afghanistan, Iraq and Kuwait. 2/3 tours I came under direct fire and listened to the locals tell me how much they hated Americans and our forced Democracy. I spent about 8 months each in Afghanistan and Iraq, eating MRE and rations for weeks at a time if we were forward deployed.

During December of 2004 my ship was one of the first on scene for the Humanitarian relief in Sri Lanka after the largest Tsunami ever recorded killed hundreds of thousands in the Indian Ocean area. We flew off all the food we had stored and were down to rations and MRE for almost a month. We weren't allowed to fish since the waters had become soiled and contaminated by the dying bodies of the locals floating like flotsam on it's way to hell.

All that being said, I would rather be eating MRE and Navy powdered egg rations again rather than eat the food from Armadillo Grill.
