We love a good deal and trying new restaurants. Armando’s Mexican Grill recently opened on north Arkansas in a building that has held many other Mexican restaurants, most recently Casa Del Charro. We stopped by on Tuesday to try their $1.49 taco special to see how it compared.

There were six meat options available for the tacos: asada, pastor, lengua, carnitas, chorizo and chicken. I ordered a mix of different proteins.
All diners were given complimentary chips and salsa. The hotter of the two salsas didn’t provide much flavor but the mild one was fantastic. I went through a few bowls of this myself.
It didn’t take long to receive my tacos. The meats were actually all really good. I thoroughly enjoyed how well it was seasoned and cooked. The biggest point of concern was the tortilla. The double tortillas had a very tough texture to them; we weren’t fans of it at all. It was as if they were grilled way too long. If the tortillas could be better, they would have a winner of a taco.
Here’s their vast menu if you decide to order something besides tacos:
Happy Dining,
