Bentonville Taco & Tamale Co.

One of the best Mexican restaurants we have tried. They have some waiting time if you go on the weekends. Coming to the food, they were very fresh and delicious. They serve you real quick and our waiters very sweet and attentive. We tried the trio salsa dip, cheese enchiladas and the sweet potato tamales. I guess they are one of the very few restaurants which serves vegan tamales. Definitely worth a try!

highly recommend this place! my husband and i are visiting family in B-ville and are thrilled to have discovered this restaurant on our date night. the vibes just feel cozy and good and are reminiscent of hip Austin; and the food is bursting with flavor and freshness. i ordered the steak fajitas and was impressed with the flavor!! and my husband was very content and happy with the vegan tamales. the vegan queso was delicious and my margarita was perfect. our server was kind a pleasant and friendly. highly recommend this place — enjoy!

Great location and fairly nice inside, very cool counter seating on one side. They do have a slamming door problem, on par with a bomb drop in decibels. I really liked the menu, fairly creative for Tex mex, but fell short on execution. I had tamale pie, it was mainly Fritos. I was expecting Fritos to be more of a garnish not the base of the dish. It was dry and hardly had any cheese, meat or tamale pieces- maybe 2 total. Hubs had fish tacos, pintos were disappointing and the tacos were just ok. I might give them another try, my friends salad looked good.

Awesome spot! Got the trio salsa dip and absolutely loved the creamy jalapeño onion dip. Also got the cheese dip with ground beef and the enchiladas with cheese and ground beef! So much cheese in and on top of the enchiladas and it’s stringy to your hearts content. Highly recommend giving this spot a try!

The first thing I have to say is that the food is superb, definitely something different, but great fusion. I had the tamales, and they were great. The drink was great, and I even got a free cuze with my beer. Excellent place. I highly recommend it.

This restaurant is a favorite of our granddaughter so we had to try it. It is bright and clean and welcoming. I love the decor, especially the tile floor. We started with a basket of the grilled corn spears (not sure what they are actually called) and they were delicious. We both ordered the 3 beef and pork tamales (they didn't have pork that day so we just got beef). The warm green salsa and other condiments really added to the delicious tamales. It was lunchtime but not crowded and the service seemed a little slow but I think that's how it is in the south compared to Chicago where we live.

We checked out Bentonville Taco & Tamale while visiting friends that moved to the area. We had a fantastic dining experience! The restaurant is clean, vibrant, and modern with friendly, energetic staff. We started with the salsa trio served with house chips (your choice of salsa from the variety available). We tried both of the house tamales: pork & beef tamales with a red chili broth and the sweet potato tamales with a tomatillo-like broth. The rice and pinto beans tasted perfect with the tamales! If you are visiting Bentonville, make sure to check out this restaurant and let me know what you think!

First time in bentonville and this place was recommended to us! Everything was amazing! We got there a little after 5 on a Saturday night and we're able to get seated immediately. The whole place is super cute and fun to look around. Our server was sweet and attentive! The chips and sauce trio was delicious, the jalapeno and onion dip was our favorite! The chips were warm and the hint of the lime in the salt was a winner! We got tamales, one sweet potato and two pork and they were delicious! 3 was filling with the chips and dip. Also got the beef enchila skillet with a side of black beans and rice. Super cheesy and very good, also got the expresso martini. Would recommend!
