From Steve Birnbaum brings you the best of Disneyland 1982:
This Frontierland landmark, formerly known as Casa de Fritos, offers the kind of Mexican food found most in the American Midwest, so real aficionados of authentically spiced south-of-the-border specialties will find the restaurant's version lacking bite. But because this is California, a state where residents know their tacos and tostadas, hot jalapeño peppers are served on the side, and there's hot sauce on every table. The tables on the west end of the patio offer terrific views of the runaway mine trains of the Big Thunder Mountain Railroad as they race around those sandstone-colored buttes, and the ramadas over- head and the stucco walls around the patio make for a pleasant dining ambience. The restaurant doesn't feel like Mexico-but it doesn't seem much like downtown Anaheim either. Burritos, enchiladas, tacos, tamales, tostadas, rice, and refried beans are on the menu, so mix and match as you prefer, or select one of the menu's combination platters. Serves Lunch, Dinner, Snacks.
