    I don't like Mexican food but we planned a meeting there. I ordered a steak burrito & it was out of this world. Going back soon.

    Our usual, and favorite go-to Mexican restaurant wasn't open tonight (El Durango), so we chose to order from El Aurora.

    In all fairness my review is based on Valentine's Day...which fell on a Monday...and basically half…read morethe town is closed on Mondays and these poor people were NOT prepared for the on slot. Staff was polite and did their best, but the place was packed and there were two of them and one additional lady that didn't speak much English...everyone was in the weeds. A couple of additional employees did eventually show up, that were clearly not supposed to be there and were probably bribed in order to do so. We went long stretches without seeing our server and had to ask for most of what we wanted/needed twice. Salsa is blended super smooth and on the runny side. It has decent flavor and a slight kick to it...chips were standard but not stale-like some places close by. Margarita mix is standard and nothing to write home about, little on the flat side and light on the tequila...but far from the worst I've ever had...so I'll give it a fair rating. Our food was hot, but some parts were a little over cooked and some parts were a little under seasoned. The brown sauce on California burrito was the highlight of it all. I'm guessing it's a pre-made attempt at a mole ::shrugs:: but it was really tasty, whatever it was trying to be. Positives: They tried and we would give them another chance They are not stingy with the sour cream Every employee was nice

The mojarra (deep fried whole tilapia) was the best I have had anywhere. My husband had the burrito deluxe and was equally pleased. Service was prompt. Prices were very reasonable for a Sunday mid afternoon. The only complaint I have is that staff was very loud laughing in a back room when they weren't serving, therefore I give them a four star, not a five star.

    I really love coming to this place. First of all, I love the atmosphere inside, it's like you're in…read morea charming Mexican courtyard, relaxing and mostly recessed lighting, very chill and quaint, with some vintage vibes. The staff are nice, helpful and lowkey. Their menu has several things that you don't see at most Mexican restaurants in the area. And their quesadillas are simple yet incredible!! I don't know what kind of cheese they use, but it is unctuous, buttery and soft and melty and rich. I went there for my birthday. I just went there for lunch and then again for dinner today, because I couldn't stop thinking about how great the quesadillas are. So if you're in Barnesville on a day they are open, come give it a try.

    Only open Tuesday through Friday, but well worth trying. It's a family friendly place run by a…read morefriendly family. The food is unexpectedly good. The Chicken Chipotle is broiled perfectly in a rich sauce that is balanced and doesn't overdo. My wife loves the steak salad with grilled mushrooms and pesto. Open faced poblanos with grilled chicken is my favorite so far. These are savory dishes with deep flavors that don't come out of a can. It really is fine food. The family provides the service and they take care to get things right, although sometimes they are stretched thin at rush hour. The ambiance is cheery and clean. The dining area is surprisingly large with many tables, a dozen booths, and a separate bar area. It's a popular family joint, often with groups and large parties. It's still fine for date night - just not on a Saturday.

Don't let this stop you! It's a small venue, probably less than 8 tables, very clean. But, oh, the food! Chips and salsa were brought out first and then our orders. The combo plate for my husband and the chicken quesadilla combo for me. Both very good. Some of the best rice I've had in a Mexican restaurant. The lady who delivered our food ( one of the owners) told us that on Wednesdays they offer a buffet with both Mexican and American food. Sounded delicious and I hope the next time head to FL from SC, it will be on a Wednesday. If you haven't eaten here, you need to go!

    This is a really great Mexican hole in the wall. Service was quick and we ordered our food to go…read more The lady that took our order was nice and polite. My wife got the steak burrito bowl and I got the fried pork burrito. For drinks we tried the horchata and picked up a slice of their Tres Leche cake. We also tried all of their sauces, queso, and salsa. The sauces weren't that great in my opinion and the salsa didn't have good flavor and was a little watered down. The queso was pretty good though and i recommend that to go with their chips. The steak in the bowl tasted decent and the whole bowl together was really good. It was presented in the to go container really well. We recommend trying this. The fried pork tasted really good in the burrito. It was a little sweet but also a little crunchy and I was addicted to it. The whole burrito was delicious, only downside was it got really greasy by the time we got home to eat. I still highly recommend this but have plenty of napkins lol. The horchata was top tier. You could taste the rice a bit and it was a little sweet, really well balanced flavors. The tres leches cake tasted a little generic. The cake itself was a little moist but not fully like it should be. Overall, we definitely want to go back and try other things they had on their menu and other proteins. I definitely recommend checking this place out if you are in town.
