Muchas Gracias is a step above other fast food Mexican outlets, such as Taco Bell or Del Taco. The food is so much more authentic. The restaurant I visit is clean and the wait staff is friendly and efficient. One thing I find amusing is their system for transmitting orders: they yell back to the kitchen before submitting a written... More

My feelings are ambivalent towards them. They're not bad but not noteworthy either. They serve large portions, but ingredient quality is marginal. I think, in the future, if I get a hankerin' for this kind of place, I'll saddle my horse and ride to Aibierto's on Market street, which has similar prices and has superior food.

This chain is to Salem OR what the Doner Kebab is to Brits- Late night food to soak up the alcohol when you are long past caring about your diet. For what they do, inexpensive Mexican food, they're the best. They make great guacamole, rolled tacos, and their beans and rice are great too. They also now have churros on... More

We stopped in Muchas Gracias in our way to Seattle. It has a very good service and selection of food. I finally found a place that make a good "torta" (carnita). My only recommendation if that it need a better sign, it took me several minutes to find the place.

I visit more than one Muchas Gracias restaurant. They offer consistently good food and a great variety. The shrimp burrito is to die for, not to mention their tacos de carnitas.

For a quick take-out or fast dine-in, Muchas Gracias fills the need. Not great food, but good food at cheap prices. The horchata (rice drink) is delicious and far better than the regular soda-fountain beverages every restaurant carries.
