Good Mexican food!  Green Chile, chile rellenos, sopapillas  10 minutes from the show.  print out a map, not the easiest to find, but worth it.

Bad taste experience.  I had eaten there many years ago on a 4-H trip to the Stock Show and thought it was great.  The kids were begging to go about 5 years ago, so we did.  The cheese consisted of something that resembled melted velveeta on everything and the meat was pretty nasty.  Just didn't taste near as good as I remembered.  The cliff divers were cool though.

The Rodizio Grill is really good.  You can eat enough meat at one sitting to last you all week.

I would agree with that.  You could pour somethng out of a can alot better.

Ahhh man that sucks. We ate there last year and everything was good, we only ordered country fried steak though. Pretty hard to mess that up. lol

Like I said, just don't eat the Mexican food.  Chicken fried steak is probably just great -- will remember that the next time I go.

I'd probaly agree with that, I'm not a big fan of mexican food to start with, but some friends of ours took us there and we go back every year. Wish I was going this year...:(

Casa Bonita is more about the atmosphere, than the food.  We used to stop on the way back from ski trips and I never was knocked over by their food.
