This is my favorite Mexican restaurant in the Chattanooga area! Every menu item I have tried is delicious. Excellent home made salsa and chips! The service is fast, friendly and wonderful. We will continue to frequent this restaurant!

I think they have upped their game somewhat from the last visit we had it. They were always asking us if we needed refills on drinks and our chips and salsa. The food tasted much better than the last time we ate there.

Went for their Birria Tacos, decent but nothing spectacular. Service was ok, had to ask for refills several times and had to locate our waiter to pay. They were busy and seemed overwhelmed so we will try again next time we are in the area.

Been wanting to stop in here for a week now and glad I finally did. Super courteous staff and the horchata hit the spot on a hot day. Ordered the lunch special burrito real with el pastor and it's exactly what I expected. Beans were good and the fresh cojita on top made it complete.
I definitely will be coming back here again

El Matate has excellent food. I particularly like Pollo Tolusca and Pollo Jalisco. Restaurant is very clean and service is excellent. El Matate and El Jinete (the Ooltewah version) are our two favorite Mexican restaurants in Chattanooga... and we are former Texas residents and picky on Tex-Mex
