El Korita's is located at 2001 W. Wyatt Earp in one of those buildings in Dodge City that seems to cycle through restaurants. It is best known for its ($1/item Mexican Buffet) which has that price on certain days/times.
This is the sign on the door-we had some enjoyment because the way it reads, one can make an assumption that the Real Mexican Food Buffet is on Friday, Saturday and Sunday-so we went on Friday. We were certain that, regardless of what they serve the rest of the week, we wanted "real" Mexican food so we came on Friday!
Sadly The Sarge has gone off to other adventures and was not able to enjoy the wordplay-I know she would have gotten a chuckle.
Here's the chips and salsa. If you go buffet, you won't have any waiting time and you'll probably be like us and not really get to try much of them because your food will be served el rapido.
I had green pork, a tamale, a chili relenao, some beans, and a Mexican Coke. It is very convenient to pick from the buffet line but (to me) the food here is bland and sometimes that stuff has been out a little too long. I give the food a "3" on our 5 point scale. It's not bad but there's nothing exciting here. The green pork smelled a little off to me but I enjoyed the pork tamale.
The chips and salsa are good as well but will not be enjoyed much because of the speed of the buffet. I rate them a 3 as well.
K-Dawg had rice water (his new favorite drink at Mexican places, I think), a chicken tamale, spicy steak, and chicken mole. He said that the spicy steak and chicken mole were best but commented that the rice water was a little heavy on the cinnamon. 4 of 5.
K-Dawg did not comment on the chips and salsa.
The Scotsman had red pork, a beef enchilada, a chicken tamale and a strawberry Mexi-soda. He said that the beef enchilada was the best and that he really liked it; he also said that the tamale was pretty good. He rated his meal a "4" on our 5 point scale. He REALLY liked the strawberry soda and I fear we may have created a monster here-future dinings will tell!
The Scotsman did not evaluate the chips and salsa.
