  This restaurant in Winchester has 19 Google reviews with an average of 5/5. One reviewer said, "By far the best tacos!!! I've had since California. Has such good flavor the meat is tender not fatty or grisly thank goodness cause I am picky when it comes to meat lol. The tortillas are fresh and soft! The salsas are full of flavor. Tamales are moist with a little kick.  Also had an Elotes (mexican corn on cob) one of my obsessions!! Never had it with tajin it actually adds to the flavor. Overall I highly recommend Lupitas 100% wish they would come out once or twice a week to Tullahoma I would definitely be there more often and I think others would enjoy as much as we did!"

Many folks are getting it to go while there are quite a few tables to sit down and eat your food as well. Make sure to ask for the chips and homemade salsa. They have a salsa bar there and serve Mexican Coca Cola -- if you haven't had Mexican Coke, give it a try, most people say it tastes much better than what you can find in the states. The food tends to be more authentic Mexican instead of Tex-Mex or Americanized Mexican food.

The food selection is pretty good and everything we had was delicious. We were in the area doing some sightseeing and moonshine tasting. The place we were going to for lunch was closed so we ended up here. Great happenstance as we all enjoyed our meals and the large portions.  I had the fried chicken which was perfect. My son and his fiancée had burgers that were both juicy and delicious. We will be coming back on purpose the next time we are in the area."
  
  
  
• Betty's Diner:  There are 89 Google reviews with an average of 4.7 / 5.  One reviewer said, "Hands down one of the best restaurants in Franklin County. We recently moved to Shelbyville, and have to make a trip to Decherd every now and then just to eat here. The food is always amazing, and Miss Betty is as sweet as can be. I would recommend going as soon as she opens at 11am because the food goes FAST, and understandably so. Miss Betty does her best waitressing and putting out the new bins of food in the hot trays. She’s always going nonstop, and that makes me appreciate this diner even more. If you’re going through Decherd or in a surrounding county and want a great home cooked meal at an amazing price, this is definitely the place to go!!"
