I don't have anything interesting to report on projects today so I will turn to a stall tactic. If you are ever blessed to be in the Fort Smith or Hot Springs areas of Arkansas, a trip to Rolando's is a must! Both locations are equally tasty even though I am a little partial to the Ft. Smith location on Garrison Avenue.
I was fortunate enough to capture the front room when it wasn't buzzing with people. The decor is eclectic and the atmosphere is casual and friendly. Rolandos is fabulous for lunch or dinner - or both on the same day (don't think I haven't)! Unsweet iced tea is the best choice for drink - it has a hint of raspberry and served with lime!. I also highly recommend starting with the made from scratch Guacamole.
BFF says the guacamole is delish!You really can't go wrong with anything on the menu but for me I always go with one of my two favorites: Quesadillas de Chivo w/chicken - grilled flour tortilla stuffed with chicken, goat cheese, green vegetables, topped with Argentinean sauce OR Lulu's Enchiladas - corn tortillas filled with chicken and cheese with a tomatillo sauce.
Both are served with rice and black beans which are awesome. They also serve each dish with pickled red onions and cucumbers which blends nicely with the flavor explosion!

I was so caught up in the yumminess of the moment that I forgot to photograph the food before it was devoured. The presentation is pure art and the flavor is unique and unforgettable. Mmmmm - now my mouth is watering but I'm an hour away from the Hot Springs location. Maybe I need to drop a hint for Mother's Day! If you are ever in the area give me a shout. I would love to meet at Rolando's!

I LOVE Rolando's! I even took my little guy there since he loves guacamole so much!
I saw your blog title post on Meet the McFamily and came to look - L.O.V.E Rolando's!! Iced tea, guac, and Lulu's are typically my choice too!
Wish I was closer-I am a Mexican food person at heart!!!
We lived in Ft. Smith for a year and I don't think we ever ate here! We really missed out! It sounds delicious.
Oh my gosh Rolando's is to die for that is for sure. So friends and our hubby's went for Valentine's & I am so ready to go back yummy is all I have to say about everything there from the drinks to the food love love love this place..
