We were visiting the area from Tennessee. After our Spartan Race, we Googled "Mexican restaurants near us." What a homerun. This is the best Mexican restaurant I've ever had the pleasure of eating at. The food was fresh, hot, and absolutely delicious. My dad is still talking how great everything was. To top it all off, the service was outstanding and the waiter was phenomenal. We kept drinking so much water and our glasses never ran dry. Hope to visit next year when we come down.
First time here and the food was AMAZING , the plate was El Mejor and indeed it was the best!!! To top off; our waitress Areli was fanatastic; definitely going to return!!
From the moment we walked in it was a great experience. The hostess was warm and friendly. She saw that I am pregnant (9 months belly is huge) she sat as at a booth I could fit in. She was very considerate. I asked where the restroom was she asked me there herself. I mean stellar customer service. Waitress was great as well. Fast service. And the food was super authentic! El Amigo is topped our cuisine list.
An issue I run into with Mexican restaurants is that they all seem to taste the same. I see this especially with combo plates. I ordered a combo plate here the other night, and while some of the items tasted the same as other restaurants some were definitely better. I really enjoyed the poblano. The salsa and queso were super flavorful and that’s one of the things I scrutinize the most. I did not order a margarita but I heard they have the best ones around. The service was good, the restaurant was clean. The amount of food for the price was unbeatable. I’ll be back for sure. Also if you’re wondering, they serve Pepsi products.
Love this restaurant. Food was delish, server was funny and atmosphere is wonderful
I have absolutely loved this place from the first moment I stepped in the door. The environment is cozy. No loud music or people yelling like most Mexican restaurants. Dim comfortable lighting and personable courteous staff. One of my favorites.
Yo... amazing. Best margaritas, we had the mango pitcher. The California burrito is top notch. For kids?... a great selection of food. Ask for the SPICY salsa and ride that capsasin until your food comes out! Our waitress was so friendly and fun. Bring the family! This place is popular so don’t be surprised at a little bit of a wait!
As a family we eat here often, it's our go to if we're trying to stay close to home. The food is always good and comes out quick & hot. Service is great, drinks are good, all around a nice little place and it's fairly priced.
I belong to a group of 7-8 and we go out every Wednesday for lunch together. They all seem to like it and have voted to come back next week for 3rd time. Waitress seemed new and reason for 4 stars - several mistakes in orders, but all were corrected.
