We stopped in for lunch on our drive from Elko, NV up to West Yellowstone, WY. Since they were located right next to the Costco made it an easy choice. Fuel the car at Costco then fuel ourselves. Service was good and pretty quick. Food was as expected. I had a sandwich they girls had some surf and turf. No complaints from anyone was heard. I've had bad experiences with other locations of this place but the Pocatello location made up for past encounters. This one I would return to, the others, well...not so much. Aside from all that it was an average dining experience and very slow for and early Monday afternoon. Parking is was sufficient as we found a spot right up front. It was pretty cool inside too. Nice to me since outside was over 90 as I recall.
9. Rolberto's Mexican Food
Reviewed By jbeatseverywhere
I don't drink, but everyone I know that does describes Roberto's as "drunk food." I don't know if they know or are affiliated with Los Adalberto's in Idaho Falls, but the food is VERY similar, which is to say, pretty good. Food is always, always hot. It's a bit greasy but that's what this place serves: greasy Mexican food. I have always felt that the word "greasy" in reviews has a negative connotation, but here it's kind of...part of the charm.
8. KB's Pocatello
Since 1993, KB's locations in Idaho have been serving made-to-order healthy burritos and tacos.

We visited KBâs on a Sunday morning. They were not busy and the food was really good! They grilled the flour shell and the ingredients were all cooked to order. All for $6.99. Chipotle is a decent burrito however itâs not cooked for you fresh. The portion size was excellent and the flavors were amazing. We also enjoyed the $2.00 mimosas. They also have a decent selection of beers on tap! Thatâs pretty cool! I will definitely be back!

Dinned here for lunch and was hoping for shrimp or salmon tacos, I guess they now onlyOffer sea food on select days. The restaurant wasn't clean and the employees seemed like they didn't care. The food was good but hard to enjoy when the restaurant seating and drink areas was dirty. Won't be dining here again anytime soon.

Love this place! I have never had anything which wasn't delicious. Order the charos rancheros instead of the refried beans. Super yummy! We had a graduation party with 30 people there tonight. Not a single complaint. Prices are reasonable and the had a fantastic mariachi singer for entertainment.

This is the only Mexican food place that I would recommend for anyone. In addition to Mexican it has American favorites such as finder steaks. Excellent service! Full bar service with frozen Margaritas that will freeze the top of your head. It is also great for viewing multiple sports events on several flat screen TVs. Great parking and also good place for business over lunch. Five Stars

Chapalas is our families absolute favorite place to eat. The food is so delicious and healthy! The service is excellent, they go above and beyond for a great experience. Itâs a fun and uplifting place for us to go and enjoy a meal together. They also have live music at times which is also very good.

Mexican restaurants are my favorite, and we have developed certain criteria for rating them over the years. The chips and especially the salsa, and how good is the rice are two major factors.The cops and salsa are pretty good here, though not the best I've had. The rice was very good. I had the Changa, which was also really good. I had wanted to order a different dish but without mushrooms, but it was apparently premixed, and that I didn't like. But overall, really good food!
