We had a relaxing time, great music, very good food, friendly service. We will be returning more frequently.

Cute family owned typical Mexican fare- not our favorite, but not bad at all. My only real complaint was that the cheese inside my cheese enchilada was not at all melted. The hot salsa was good, ask for it to accompany your tacos if you like spicy. read more

My son just tried to call 2 different times to place an order. Twice he said his name and they said Riley? No not even close. Tell me how 2 sides of rice and beans, a burrito and an order of guacamole comes to 66.00????!!!!! I called to figure this out and was not given good customer service so I said cancel it forget it. NEVER AGAIN read more

El Camino has always been a favorite of mine for authentic mexican food. I moved from the area a few years ago, but always try to visit when I'm in town. Stopped in for a late lunch, they have a lunch menu available 7 days a week until 2:30pm. The chimichanga is a favorite because it's covered in queso! Portion sizes are very generous. Chips and homemade salsa is served to every table, the first round is complimentary. Coke products available, including fountain Mello Yellow. You won't find fanciness here, but you will find great food and friendly service! read more

Great food great service nice and quiet seats were comfy and the temperature was nice

Atmosphere is average to below average for a hole in the wall restaurant. I've eaten more Mexican cuisine than most that I know so I feel I'm someone of a decent judge of Mexican cuisine. Where do I start.... Let's start with I can't believe this place still exists! The food is absolutely atrocious. The meat and red sauce, just gross. The chips are terrible. Tastes like dog food in a chip form. Salsa was edible but well below average. Tried several different dishes with our group and not a single plate was close to good. Hacienda even has way better food. Won't be back and if you are wanting anything even remotely decent I'd suggest looking elsewhere. Taco Bell blows this place away. read more

Food: curdled sour cream, mushy wet lettuce, dry tough steak, hard cardboard chips, salsa not worth it. Get a beer and then go home. read more

We just want to commend one of your staff members by the name of Christian. He was our server on Saturday afternoon and he was just wonderful. We've been to El Camino Real several times before, and this was the first time we were greeted so politely. Christian didn't rush us regarding our order and answered all our questions we had about the food. He was very attentive to all tables. We just want you to know how much we appreciate good, respectable and polite employees. The food was very good. We will definitely be returning soon. Thank you. read more

One of our go to places for very good Mexican food. It may not be the fanciest restaurant but the staff is very friendly and helpful, and the food has always been very good. read more

Used to be a regular here, but seems to have gone downhill since new owners. Tonight was kind of the topping on the cake though, the waitress sat my husbands, cheese sauce down and stuck her ungodly long fingernails right into it. I'm surprised he even ate it. read more

Poor customer service and waitresses not attentive to customers. Employees eat in corner of restaurant and have kids running the floor. Complained to owner and did nothing about it. Will not be going back to this restaurant ( or daycare) for anything. Would not recommend....... Can't say you haven't been warned. read more

El Camino is a solid restaurant. Been here multiple times and it is always really consistent. Good food and pretty decent atmosphere. The chips and salsa are 7/10. read more

El Camino is a family-friendly, authentic Mexican restaurant. They feature daily food and drink specials. I generally get one of their combination dinners because it's easy to order and I like variety, but occasionally I'll mix it up and order tacos a la carte. They can accommodate large groups (give them advance notice) and make birthday celebrations memorable. Prices are very reasonable. When we lived in Chicago, we tried various Mexican restaurants to try to match El Camino's quality and value, but we didn't find anything that came close. read more

Solid. I think this place would serve you something more authentic if you went in and asked--in spanish--for 'comida verdaderamente mexicana'. I was with a big group and it definitely tasted like the American version of Mexican (which can still be tasty). Nonetheless, the servers are a ton of fun if you are in the mood to joke around. Also, this is the place to be for Sunday lunch if you are looking to run into Mennonites. read more

Great Mexican food, nice big space and very clean. We really had to look at Yelp to find a place open on Sunday night but when we did, it was a winner. Plus, our server was such a great guy. I had Shrimp al Mojo like I do at nearly every Mexican restaurant I go to. It was just great plus the salsa was outstanding. If you're in Goshen, make sure you visit it. Tell them your Amigo Cliff sent you. read more

While San Marcos is probably the more authentic choice, El Camino is the popular place for mexican food in Goshen. College students flock here...and at times, so do the Conservative Mennonites. Depending on which waiter you get and the level of sweet-talking at your table, the margaritas can get pretty strong. read more

I think this may be one of the best restaurants in Goshen; nestled in a little strip ball behind Bob Evans. The food cannot be beat. The prices are super reasonable, the portions plentiful and the margaritas are cheap (by Chicago standards). The service is always attentive and always consistent. Many people would prefer Hacienda's taco bell style food and there full of sugar frozen flavored margaritas, but really this place is where you should go! I always go for the Fajitas and the Margaritas and their chips and salsa cannot be beat! It's the first place I want to go whenever I visit the big city of Goshen! read more

This place is no better or worse than the 10,000 other Mexican restaurants in the U.S. that largely fit under the model of "allegedly authentic, but predicated on combo dinners." read more

Every aspect of my order was incorrect, they didn't bring me half of my order until I asked for it, and I felt very rushed to finish.

You HAVE to try the enchiladas with green sauce here. So delicious! My husband had tacos, which were about standard, and a chili relleno, which was amazing. The chips and salsa are just so-so. But, the service was really good, the restaurant was clean, and the food came out really quickly. We will visit again when we're back in the area. read more

The other reviews are fairly accurate: this is American Mexican food. It's not the best, but it's not the worst. What is the worst is that they charge for drink/chip refills. I think this is the only place in town that does so. read more

El Camino is great if you value good food and value over atmosphere. Their grasp of the English language is not the greatest, but that is not unusual in Goshen or Elkhart. I highly recommend the Pollo El Camino, but you really cannot go wrong with anything on the menu so long as you enjoy Mexican food. read more

Such delicious authentic food! We love it!! Prices have gone up recently so we can't afford to go as often.

Let me start by saying I love Mexican food so it hurts to say that I give it no stars the food was terrible my fajitas weren't even sizzling when brought out which most definitely should have been The taco salid was also terrible the meat was bland an tasted like just sour cream and lettuce only the chicken was burnt on one side and the steak was a bad cut which had a lot of fat on it I use to eat at the one in Plymouth an it was actually my favorite restaurant but as for this one in Goshen it is a disgrace to the people of Mexico nobody out of four of us liked wut they had it was over priced at 81 dallors and tasted extreamly terrible the service was bad the whole experience left a bad taste in my mouth literally. I will never go back to an el conmeno reel restaurant ever Again i recommend that people just goto to tacobell save their stomachs an wallets the heartache by far the worst experience i have ever had at a restaurant read more

I just ate something that looked like Mexican food but tasted like $"?& . What happened to this restaurant. Compared to other authentic Mexican restaurants this is by far the worse, I think hacienda is better..... read more

Never had a bad experience here and we keep coming back. Food is good, portions are generous, staff is courteous and prices aren't bad.

Love the food but very disappointed with the service tonight. The waitress clearly didn't understand what we wanted, had to take the menu and look at what my husband ordered and 10 minutes later came back to ask again what her wanted. Ordered an appetizer and it was not delivered before our meal. When asked we were told it was coming and in the end never received. read more

First of all, arroz con pollo came with no cheese and had bagged steamed veggies dumped on top, had to order a $4 side of cheese, and pour it ourselves, tragic really. Also, service sucked read more

Authentic. Definitely. Ambiance nice and quiet. Love the décor. Zapata Poppy. Just like home. Favorite dish is Angel. Food is always hot and fresh like it should be. Service is always on point. Chips are fresh & tortillas are always more then just warmed up. The only thing I was ever disappointed in was the Flan. It's not authentic. It was frozen and they did not know what secrets it holds or way to be presented to be authentic. One of my favorites for the Midwest. read more

I went hear with some friends on a Saturday night and really enjoyed the food. The menu's your typical fare you see at Mexican restaurants in the midwest with lots of good stuff: flautas, burritos, enchiladas, tacos, tostadas, etc. I had the garlic shrimp dinner and found it very tasty. Service was great and atmosphere was fun. And you can't be free chips and salsa! read more

This is a personal call - do you want 'Americanized' Mexican? A lot of the choices seem to fit this category. I did really enjoy the tostada de camaron, which was fresh and tasted much more authentic. I enjoyed the meal and the service was excellent. If it were my Mexican preferences, I'd give them 3 stars, but considering what most people like, I'll give them 4 - because they seem to be able to walk the line between the authentic and Americanized crowds. read more

Not impressed with the food nor service. Only came here because our friends wanted to eat there. I ordered taco asadas and beef nachos just to hold my hunger. My food all came out at the same time. The server seemed more anxious for us to leave. If I had wanted mediocre food, I would have gone to Hacienda. read more

Great Mexican food at a reasonable price! I miss good Mexican food now that I live in Denver. Their fajitas are pretty good. I used to go quite a bit when I lived in Goshen. This is much better than Hacienda and I'm shocked that so many actually would pick Hacienda over authentic Mexican. Go to El Camino if you are in the mood for a burrito, fajitas, or tacos. Also, you can practice your Spanish-speaking skills ;). The servers appreciate that. read more

This place is one of my family's top haunts in Goshen for dinner when we are craving Mexican. Great selection of Mexican favorites. Although not authentic, my personal favorite is the taco salad. The flavors of the tortilla shell, cheese, sour cream, and seasoned ground beef blend well together. The service is great, but be prepared for an extended wait time on weekends and holidays. read more

I love El Camino ... their Pollo El Camino is my definite favorite, but there are too many runners-up to list them all. I live in Phoenix, where Mexican food is available on every corner, but long to live closer to El Camino! read more

Great place to get authentic Mexican food. The prices are quite low as well. Best meal for the money by far.

El Camino has a solid selection of very satisfying Mexican food. The food is reasonably priced, the servers are friendly (even helping my wife & I brush up on our Spanish), and I always find myself leaving happy & full. Now that San Marcos is gone (so sad!) El Camino is my favorite source of Mexican food in Goshen. read more

As far as authenticity El Camino definitely leans more towards American Mexican than traditional Mexican. The salsa while much better than Hacienda's is still a pureed mixture. On my last visit I ordered the Chile de Colorado platter with pork which, said it was a spicy item. While the dish was well seasoned it lacked the heat I had expected. On previous visits I have enjoyed the Burrito de Barbechos which is good and very filling. I've never had a bad meal here but for some reason I always go in and expect it to be better. The service is always good but they don't always read your ID the best. I have been told I'm not 21 a couple of times which is kind of annoying. Not a bad choice but not the best choice for Mexican in Goshen. read more
