El Mariachi II

On Saturday night I went to el mariachi. I ordered a taco dinner. The place was very nicely decorated and very comfortable. They had 2 tv’s on playing basketball games which was very nice. The waitress was very nice and friendly. She made sure I had everything I needed while I was fhere. Once I got my good I was very pleased. My meal came with Mexican rice and beans. It was perfectly cooked and very tasty. It was one of my best dining experiances. The hours are very conveniant. They are open until 10 o’clock. I will be returning for zure.

I LOVE the carne asada here!!! Been going for over 15 yrs now. Always great! I find the quality to be very consistent.

Best Mexican I’ve ever had? No, but better than average. steak tacos, guac, torta and taco salad are my go-​to dishes. More often than not the food here really his the spot. I will admit though that there are consistency issues. It’s either all on point or it’s all lacking. My husband and I even joke about it, «uh oh, greasy guy must be working tonight» on the off nights the tortillas are dry and brittle, the steak is a little chewy and greasy, and the guac is barely chopped let alone mashed. But to us it’s worth the risk for reasonably priced take out.

I have been here few time for lunch food was OK! Place is convenient! Today we ordered Carne Asada and Taco salad with steak.
Carne was very hard and smelly :(taco salad was soggy and no flavor! Nice people but won’t come back again.

Never had a bad meal here. This is our go-​to when we’re looking for a place to take the in-​laws.
Steak quesadillas are fantastic, and Sandy is a great server!

Always a top favorite! Excellent food, super nice staff, great time all around.

I do recall the food being a little bit better. This is my second choice for Mexican restaurants in the area. Don Pedro’s is number one, this was closer to where I was coming from, so… Ok, so they only had one waitress, and I think she was helping the people at the carry out counter too. There was a guy sitting at the first table eating soup when we walked in. He looked up long enough to tell us, «sit where u want» with a mouth full of soup. This was only after my mother said aloud, who is gonna seat us… because there was no one at the front to greet us. After we got our menus, we sat for a good while before our order was taken. At one point my mom told me to close my menu. We think this trick will make the waiter come faster. NOPE! The waitress was friendly, so much so that she spent alot of time talking to customers at at least two other tables. It was obvious she knew them… expected in a neighborhood place. However, we don’t know you, but maybe take our order? Refill our drinks? Ask if we need anything? The service sucked, but my enchilada and my tostada were delicious. The rice was bland, beans just ok and the taco nothing to talk about. The salsa for the chips personally made me want to puke… way too thick, more like ketchup. Carryout would be my only return visit, and only if I’m in the immediate area.

The best steak anything you can get anywhere. They have the most expensive burrito on the south side but its the biggest and the best. I am telling ya, stick with the steak.

«The El Mariachi «
The service was just fine. The free chips were old the salsa sweet .This is not a good start. The menu had pictures of the food good, now let’s see if the plate looks like the picture. Bingo good job guys. The #25 ‘flautas ” has a little hat nex to it this is the secret code for Chef recommended. HA. HA uhhh .The chef double rolled the flauta, then droped it the deep fryer. hard as a rock, I don’t care it was nasty. the rice was fly away dry The beans were flat no flavor. .one guy walked in and looked at the no smoking sign and walked out mumbling the tacos are better on ridge. so I will have to say this
why can’t people do a good job on food. # 1 it is your culture#2 it is your bread and butter, and this is what pays the bill’s .If you dont like to cook and or for some reason you can’t do it get out of the kitchen. and let some one do it that enjoys the task of seasoning food, ar knows when to add some vegtable stock to the rice so it dose not fly off the plate when the server bring’s it to my table.
