Reply to comment by Azanskippedtown in Visiting Springfield/Battlefield Area - Restaurants and yarn? by Azanskippedtown

Yeah I figured that would be the case since you are from New Mexico. The place I mentioned is very popular in Springfield and locals rave about it but it’s very weird if you’ve had actual Mexican food

Mexican Villa’s origin story is literally that a guy from the Midwest tried Mexican food, liked it, and decided to DIY it over a decade later, then made a whole restaurant based on the “exotic” flavors where everything that can come from a can does, and the microwaves do most of the cooking. It ranks in authenticity about the same as Taco Bell.
