Despite a seemingly extensive menu, The Whole Enchilada leaves much to be desired. The lack of creativity results in meals that feel expected and far from authentic.

    Extensive menu offers wide variety of dishes and selections for everyone.

  • Okay Value

    Moderate pricing for decent food and overall satisfactory experience.

  • Not Creative

    Food was expected, not authentic, indicating lack of originality.

Vibe: Unappealing, noisy atmosphere

A horrible ambiance threatens to ruin even the most optimistic visit to The Whole Enchilada. Wading through the noise made more unbearable by the outdated, mismatched decor, customers find it difficult to enjoy their dining experience. Even attempts at solace in the form of drinks are met with disappointment due to the limited beer selection.

  • Bad Ambiance

    Outdated, mixed matched decor with horrible ambiance, and very noisy.

Perks: Adequate parking yet cramped

Effortless parking is the saving grace of The Whole Enchilada, despite it sharing space with a shopping center. However, the restaurant falters in comfort with crammed seating unsuitable for larger groups. Services vary, sometimes good, other times a disappointment but the child-friendly amenities and menu make it a potential choice for families.

  • Bad For Groups
