This is one of my very favorite spots. Food is consistently amazing, drinks are good and it's close to home. Love the bar area it's a good place to chill and watch a game. Their shredded beef taco is on point! I must say I'm slightly addicted ❤️ 🌮

Found this little place while looking for an authentic Mexican restaurant. Did not disappoint. Excellent food, drinks and great service. The margaritas were way better than the one I had at another rather expensive restaurant. Really enjoyed our meals.

Been going there for years. Their salsa and chips is a must. And they serve amazing Chabelas. I like to order combination plates because they are delicious, varied, and reasonable.

Second time I've been here. The first time was pre covid and second today. Both times ordered menudo and michelada. Both times were delicious.

The jalepano margaritas are the best and the food is fantastic. They've done a fantastic job with the outdoor space and to go orders.

Service was great! We had three servers checking on us which made us feel well taken care of. Food was adequate portions. Table salsa is a bit spicy for some however had amazing flavor. Price is almost fair. We will stop back by here on a Friday night as the cantina seems to have a great sound system with deep bass and nice cuts playing.

I was looking for Restaurants with a patio option and decided on El Maestro. They have done a really cute job of setting up a tent in the parking lot, colorful, flowing wall panels and lively music. The food was GOOD and the staff extremely friendly and attentive. Although it was a week night, there were several groups of guests. We were with friends and in no hurry to leave and they did not rush us. I highly recommend this place.
