  Just tolerable.  Portions depend on who is managing that day.  Oh, and its haunted.

  El Rayos is probably one of the most underrated restaurants in Calhoun.
  
  It is on the little street that runs behind the courthouse. Sometimes I will drive by on a Friday at 8 pm with one car in the parking lot, but other times it will be 6 pm on a Tuesday with both lots full.
  
  The staff is very friendly, and the food is delicious. I recommend the dinner special #28 (burrito, enchilada, and quesadilla) with chicken.
  
  The only thing their newest competitor, El Nopal, has to offer is the Wednesday night Mariachi band.

  Remember when this location used to be called The Place?  I thought it was so cool, with its upstairs game room and cute little fireplaces.  I don't remember anything about the food, which might be why it closed in the first place.  
  
  Now, El Rayos occupies the spot.  It's just your typical Mexican restaurant with the high chairs stacked in front of the fireplace.  I ordered guacamole, a shrimp quesadilla, and a burrito supreme with chicken.  The burrito came with shredded chicken and beans inside, covered in red sauce and cheese and topped with sour cream, lettuce, and tomato.  I put some of my guacamole on it, too.  The food was pretty good, but my server seemed bored.  I was more entertained by what was playing on Univision while I ate.
