Had the chicken & Bean burrito. Was disapointed how runny it was. Like bean soup with chicken in it. Was disapointed when the bill came (charged for chips & salsa)! No surprise there; everything in Bigfork, MT is expensive. I noticed a person a the next table spilled his drink on the floor. When an employee FINALLY came to clean up (after the customer went looking for someone to help), I was appalled when she picked up his straw & lime OFF THE FLOOR and placed it back on the table next to his plate! This same person was later going around refilling customers' water glasses and I noticed her (several times) place the spout of the water pitcher far enough into the glass to touch the liquid she was refilling then move on to the next customer and also put the spout of the pitcher INTO their glass as well. Yuck! If the restaurant was inspired by the 1970s film of the same name, that might explain some things.

We had killer margaritas and the food (fish tacos, Carne Asada, Pork Burrito)were big and very good. Tasted homemade and good flavor. Service was prompt and very friendly. We were served dinner in 20 minutes. Chips and salsa were $1.50 but were obviously homemade. Casual atmosphere and looks family friendly.

We have a total of 4 employees who work the floor at El Topo.
Not one of them would ever do this. They are all trained in sanitation. They all know about where to hold a glass, a pitcher, and where to touch. The Burrito was "smothered" so there were sauces in it and on it, hence "runny". The chips and salsa are made at El Topo from the best ingredients so we charge a huge $1.50 for them. It keeps people from wasting expensive food.
