Camarones Fiesta

Lent dinner done right! This camarones fiesta were the absolute highlight--perfectly served over a bed of rice. The side of mashed potatoes was incredibly smooth and creamy. Highly recommend if you're looking for a solid meatless Friday option that actually fills you up! #Lent2026 #SeafoodLover #FridayDinner

I was craving carnitas and this place hit the spot!! Food was ready quickly, I did a to go order. Service was friendly. Food was delicious.

Mole Poblano
Robert M.

Came here for a Sunday lunch and was pretty happy with the spot. The place was pretty busy but we easily got a seat with a great waiter that was very busy with all his tables. He handled it well but was likely at/beyond the number to handle well. The chips were very thick and tasty, but the two salsas were way up the hot meter. I am an absolute sucker for mole, so I went with the Mole Poblano. It was pretty good chunks of chicken in a dark mole. Rice and beans were a check but the tortilla was awesome. Definitely would come again.

There weekly Tuesday special
Jay T.

So a friend begged me to go cuz the tacos are cheap on Tuesdays and she had little to no cash but wanted tacos. I didn't like the food the only other time I came here 6 years ago and never been back. But places change so ok I agreed. And it's just tacos, right? How do you mess that up?? Well... YAH CAN. She said she went the week before and doesn't even remember what she got but it was so good and juicy and big chunks of meat in it. I finally decided on 3, the Pork Adobado, Carnitas and Asado. Had to try the Carnitas right?? It's the name of the place. And I've never had Carnitas. On line I had looked up carnitas tacos, they have cilantro, onion, maybe a little tomato. And this tender fried pulled pork. Well not in this taco. First, they are street size tacos, not "Tacos" for $1.25 second all I got was strings of dried out fried meat. That's it. No toppings, not even any sauces. Not appetizing at all. , the asado was similar, no toppings, dry. The Adobado. Was pork chunks in a red sauce like Colorado almost. It had the most flavor and would have been good except it seemed to come straight from the fridge to my street taco tortilla to my table. It was ice cold. My friend who brought me tells me the Adobado is the one she remembered from last week but it was hot and meat was juicy and tender. This was cold and tough. And she wanted crispy shells not flour but they don't do that, probably because they don't make corn street tacos. And our wait person was not happy to be at work this day. After seating us. She wanted our order, but we had not even looked at the menu or the offerings for Tuesday yet, so she left in a huff and saying "ok fine I'll come back!" Which took about 20 minutes. She never asked about drinks. So there we sat. With no drinks and a pissed waitperson. When she did come back we had questions about what Some of the taco fillings were that we weren't familiar with. My friend was trying to describe what she had the week before, the tender chunks of meat, etc, she said she didn't know of any had chunks, she'd have to go ask. Then came back and said it had to be the Adobado. Then when we ordered waters she seemed mad about that too. I'm not sure if it was us or just that it was Tuesday And everyone was just ordering cheap tacos and water. But the food was not good, I'm glad I only paid about 4 bucks for it. The customer service was severely lacking and we only tipped 10%. And no matter how much someone begs, I'm not going back there ... and btw, no matter how much they dress up this pig restaurant, it still looks like Pelicans outside.

Great flavors and ambiance. We ordered the carnitas plate and it did not disappoint. They give you free chips as well.

Menu for dinner!

Oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooh boi! Ladies and gentlemen I know Carnitas should probably not be this expensive, but damn are these some BOMB carnitas! We had been getting food from this location as delivery for the majority of the COVID situation here in El Paso, and it wasn't until this wonderful visit that we decided to actually go in and have ourselves a little feast. We went in through the exit because we can't read that well at night but were graciously greeted regardless and were taken to our seats promptly. We looked a tad over the menu and decided to start with the Chile con queso. This was an awesome appetizer to start with as it was Oaxaca cheese with california chile melted to a hot perfection and some delicious home made corn tortillas to accompany them. We all quickly devoured both their chips and their delicious salsas as we decided what our main plates would be. We got tacos (2 carnitas and 1 buche) a carnitas plate and some Carnitas sopes. The sopes were a perfect combination for the Carnitas since every bite allowed you to have a piece of everything on them (the carnitas were ever so melt in your mouth). The tacos were huge tacos which is why I felt ok paying for just 3 of them. The carnitas plate looked like a while pound of carnitas and we were unable to finish it. The food was so awesome that we ended up getting delivery again the next day for some Fajita sopes and a large Tortilla Soup that was just immaculate. Their drinks are good and their Niña Fresa drink is by far one of my favorites to get at any restaurant. Tips and tricks for this place? Carnitas, carnitas, carnitas. Whether on a Sope or a lonche or just by themselves you gotta get yourself some. Oh and the tortilla soup just add more spice to it and its GOLDEN!

Well today they only take cash. I do not carry a lot of cash, so we had to make sure we have enough for our breakfast. Not my type of thing, having freedom to order whatever you want is important. Also, all the surfaces you touch are sticky, the restroom door is sticky, the chairs are sticky, the table was sticky and I had them clean it. They have carpet in some areas, and it is very, very dirty. Management needs to step up and improve the cleanliness of the joint. Food is good, enough to make you want to stay.

Flour tortillas and corn tortillas

La comida y el servicio son excepcionales!!!! Wow. This is by far the best restaurant I have ever gone to. Hands-down!! The food is incredible! The service is unparalleled! The pictures say it all. Come and visit. You won't be disappointed!!!

One of my favorite Mexican restaurants and as usual, e food does not disappoint had dinner with the family and had I ordered their pozole soup and was awesome. My daughter ordered the tortilla soup (a bit spicy!), and my wife ordered the milanesa sandwich. As always.....their corn tortillas are made from scratch!

Amazingly good flautas for an incredibly reasonable price. (They have other dishes too, but that's…read morewhat they are known for!) Beans and rice on the side are optional / modest extra charge - they are usually very good and worth adding if you're hungry enough. My favorite sauce is the Chipotle. It's got heat as it's also creamy...I would call it medium (I like spicy food.) If you're getting them to go, you might want the sauce and toppings on the side. They usually ask about that, but occasionally they might forget. Service is usually friendly and efficient even when they are busy. Your food is made to order, so it's fast but not instantaneous. Allow 5-10 minutes for pickup most of the time. The dining room is medium-sized. I would say it's a place to eat and go, not stay and linger.

Stopped at El Taquito for breakfast during our move from WA to TX, and it was such a great choice…read more The staff was incredibly friendly, and the whole place had that warm, local-favorite vibe. We ordered the flautas with chipotle sauce and the chilaquiles with half red and half green sauce. The chilaquiles were absolutely amazing. We added a runny egg since we couldn't do chicken, and it gave the dish extra flavor and a good boost of protein. The flautas (which I'd honestly describe more as taquitos dorados) were crunchy and tasty. We liked the chipotle sauce that came with them, but we actually loved dipping them into the chilaquile sauce even more. Overall, it was a great spot to grab breakfast before hitting the road again for many more hours. Highly recommend!

I think solid is a perfect word for this place. Not the best Mexican food I've ever had, but not…read morethe worst. I bumped it up to four stars for the super friendly service and the excellent aguas frescas. We got there late, about an hour before closing and they were literally trying to get rid of the aguas for free. I guess they have to dump it if they don't use it all. It was close to our hotel so we gave it a try. Portion sizes are good. The taco platter comes with six tacos! I had the flautas Chinampa which came with four beef flautas, beans, rice, and salad. I forgot, the taco platter even came with a baked potato. Prices were excellent. We had gone to McDonald's in the morning and spent more. They also cave us frijoles charros for free. Not sure if this was standard or if they were also trying to get rid of it. I would return for the service and the convenience, but if you're looking for life changing Mexican cuisine, it's not here. What you get is a good amount of decent food at a good price served by great people.

Heard this place was good. I get there and am seated immediately. The waitress brought drinks…read morequickly and took my order. The combo plate sounded good. I ordered that and got a ton of food. The serving was huge. Everything looked fresh. When I finished, man, was i full. Everything on that plate was excellent. Good flavor. The place was clean and the people were nice. I only had one day but when i come back in town , I would eat here again.
