First visit to Cactus restaurant in Campustown Ames. Actually it’s known as Cactus 2 as there are 3 restaurants in Iowa.

The price is alright and the staff is friendly, but this is some of the saltiest food I’ve had in my life. It’s like the sauce is made from saltwater… If you want good Mexican food go down the street to the Mr Burrito, if you want to get drunk and have some Mexican food on the side go here.

Standard Mexican restaurant, pretty much the same quality food you’d find at most other sit down Mexican places you’ve ever been to. However, they run great specials every day which really give you great bang for your buck.

Finally a good Mexican restaurant in Ames. Everything we ordered was amazing. The fish in my fish tacos was so good that I could have eaten it by itself. The margaritas are not too sweet and pack a punch. I’m so happy!

We have ordered via Doordash. One of the item was Vegetable Entree: Cheese enchilada, Bean burrito and bean tostada. The tostada had meat. The food was for one of my vegetarian friend. She couldn’t eat.

The food was nothing amazing going down. It was even worse coming back up. I ordered the chicken sancho lunch special and ended up getting extremely sick the last 24 hours. Never again…

Good servers but they definitely depend on getting their guests to drunk to realize they are eating terrible food my vegetarian girl friend had a puddle of gease on the bottom of her plate and my barito had hot sauce then what the devil could handle and it said nothing about it on the menu.

Chino cooks 7 days a week! Slams out dime piece after delicious dime piece. Service crew is the best squad in Ames!
