Cinco Amigos Mexican resturaunt

Came here because of the other reviews. Chips are shared fryer, corn tortillas are made with a mix of flour. Meats are marinated in beer. So the choice is steamed veggies.

We decided to visit the Historic Loudon area and although there were plenty of cute little eateries, I felt like it'd be safer to choose from the restaurants listed here. Unfortunately there was only one and it's about 7-8 minutes up the road. But we made the short drive and were pleasantly surprised at the lengthy menu (regular). I am trying to eat healthier and DF so I chose the steamed veggie platter with chicken and shrimp. They were happy to accommodate my request to eliminate the cheese sauce and to sub mushrooms for the cauliflower. It was served on a bed of rice and lettuce. Not sure why the lettuce, as it could have been more rice with how much food they served. But, it was really good. A little dry but that's probably what the cheese sauce is for. I ate to my fill and still brought plenty home. I'd like to add that the staff was cordial but not friendly. However, it's been almost three hours and I've only had a slight headache. I normally get a reaction within the hour or less. I'm happy with cordial and no reaction!!

Great place to eat. Friendly, clean
