I've eaten her for more than 40 years. Still consistently the absolute best Mexican around. Great guacamole, and amazing chili rellenos. And the sopapillas at the end are fluffy pillows of love.

It's a nice place- the waiter was very attentive recommending sauces etc. The food was ok. Tacos with very little meat, smaller portions than usual for me. But overall, it was ok. I will give it another try and ask for something else

I ordered takeout and had forgotten my debit card. Completely my fault. And yet, not only was the staff understanding and empathetic but they were very accommodating and remade my takeout meal fresh when I returned again. The food was delicious and the atmosphere is inviting. The best customer service I have received in a long time. They made my day. Thank you.

Leo’s was such a great place 🌟 for authentic Mexican food 🌮 🌯 😋! And it was so conveniently located within walking distance of my hotel 🏨😃! I came here on a weeknight, was seated and was tended to and served right away 🙂! The staff there greets and welcomes you there right when you walk in 🙂! The restaurant was beautifully decorated 😍 for the holidays 🎅🤶✨🌟🎄🦌❄️⛄️! I was given fresh chips and salsa right away to munch on 😋 while I waited for my main entree! The Horchata and Leo’s taco salad 🌮 🥗 with chicken 🍗 were so fresh and delicious 😋! I was truly filled up and content ☺️! I will definitely come back to Leo’s the next time I visit the west side in El Paso 🌄🌵😃!

I’m not gonna lie this place started off with low expectations, I went with my wife my two kids and my mom and dad and they took forever to accommodate us. To me that seems odd since this seems like a family type of atmosphere, as such you should expect family sized groups, but the restaurant seems rather small/cramped for the amount of customers it is getting, it’s not like there’s lots of free seats but it was mostly packed with gente from all ages and sizes , after what felt like an hour and the host seemed to have completely forgot about us we finally got a seat. So we finally sat down and ordered The pros: the tacos were bomb I ordered the steak tacos with rice and beans, not only was it cheap but it was delicious the chips and salsa is free when you first arrive the price is a steal for what you get on the menu The cons: they charge you for refills on anything outside of soft drinks, that means lemonades and aguas frescas The menu is a lot of the usual traditional dishes and nothing out of the ordinary(but what they do have is delicious) The fajitas were meh, for some reason they didn’t have peppers in the fajitas just meat and onions which I thought was odd Conclusion: the food was great, the wait wasn’t, the price was very fair, this place may need to expand or remodel for the amount of customers it’s getting !

Food is really consistently good here. Is no wonder why it's always busy. Lacking smiles up front when asked how many in our party and was seated. Hostess lady did not want to be there, and it showed. Sat us in a booth by the kitchen and was a bit worried. Almost asked to be sat somehwere else. It turned out to be ok. Nice little decorations and pictures of our local areas from the past and present. Very colorful and vibrant atmosphere. We were promptly greeted by a lovely Spanish speaking waitress. Dressed in what reminded me partly as a Folklorico type waitress dress ( that's what I'm going to call it). Very pretty. Salsa is spicy, really good. Chips are thin and crispy and seemed unsalted (or salted very lightly)... they were good too. Got the Baked Chicken Enchiladas, number 6. I got RED and my buddy got GREEN. Was really good, and BAKED indeed. Plate was very HOT and was warned by the waitress when serving. Really, really good, large portion. Waitress was attentive to our basic needs and others were pre bussing as they passed our table to the kitchen. When they saw trash from our straws and the lemon wedges that were not used at the end of the table, it was taken by a passer byer. I noticed and thought that was cool, thinking this is how it should be done. I could barely finish my plate and still got a sopapilla with honey at the end. It was a nice touch to finish a great dining experience. I'm SO FULL, 😆 I'll be back and will spread the word. Muchas gracias.

If you want authentic, delicious Northern Mexican food, this is the place. An El Paso staple. We miss the weekend buffet, but we go there when we can. The salsa and chips are great, and we always order the super combination. I personally love the thick tortilla chips stuck into the refried beans. For us, it's enough to have dinner twice. (Leftovers are almost as good as fresh) The food is super hot when it comes out, and we've never gotten sick, even with the buffet. The after meal sopapillas are wonderful. Service is great, with employees who have worked there many years. We've eaten at so many Mexican food places in El Paso, and Leo's is on the top of our list. No flashy, fake Mexican shows here. A tall Mexican beer, on tap, or Margarita, and a dinner of your choice will leave Leo's in your memory as a safe, clean, and delicious breakfast, lunch, or dinner destination, just off the Mesa exit of I-10.

Food is great the enchiladas are the best in El Paso there’s usually a wait and they over charge you on the tip if you have a large party waiters and waitresses right their tip and your check and then add the total amount. For example, for a family of six with a $70 dollar they would write a $15-$17 tip so expect to have to tip whatever they feel that day
