This past Friday, we again had an opportunity to visit LaGorda's in Locust Fork, AL. They have excellent Mexican cuisine. I had my typical combination dinner of two enchiladas, refried beans and Spanish rice. It was quite tasty, as usual. The service was also excellent, even on a busy Friday night.
The prices are quite reasonable also. Evey time we have been there, the service has been great and the food quite good. I highly recommend LaGorda's if you are in the Locust Fork, Al area and in the mood for Mexican!!

Stockyard Steakhouse
A couple of weeks ago, we decided to take a chance on a restaurant that we had never been to before. Of course, we were out of town and were just looking for a buffet. We noticed the Stockyard Steakhouse and their marque stated that they had a buffet.
The price was a little much - although it was a Friday evening. I would not have minded the price so much had the dining experience been a good one. Unfortunately, it was far from that!
The food was not very good. The steak that was on the buffet was very tough and not very tasty. They did have some good fried fish. One of our favorites is meat loaf - and what they were serving as meat loaf was absolutely awful.
The piece of lemon cake that I chose for desert was a dismal disappointment as well. The cake had a burnt crust. You would think they would have removed that - but no. Our waitress was not super efficient and was far less than cordial.
Overall, I would certainly have to rate this as a bad dining experience. Not only can I NOT recommend this restaurant, but we will certainly never go back there either.
