We love our local Mexican spot ! Food is always really good. Never a long wait to be seated or for your food. Never had any issues with service either. Prices are reasonable and they have great chips and salsa. Highly recommend ! read more

I had a carryout order (burritos mexicana, flautas and tamals) and it was wonderful. The food was hot and fresh, prepared beautiful. My compliments to the chefs. read more

So we had a party of 15, half adults and half 10-11 year olds soccer kids. They took our orders quickly and efficiently, brought our food out and got every order correct somehow, refilled drinks in between before anyone had to ask and got us all paid up without a hitch. I was so impressed by the staff and the food was delicious, everyone was happy. Plus my Horchata was HUGE. Well-run establishment with amazing staff*** read more

Fast service. Familiar faces. We eat here often. Our favorite is the dinner for 2. Delicious food every time.

This was my first time visiting here. I only had a quesadilla and it was very good. The service was ok also.

I LOVE this place. The food is cheap and amazing - I've never had a bad meal here. The service is both polite and incredibly fast. I come here at least once a week! I highly, highly recommend the chile relleno and the taco salad, or the combo #9. I always choose El Campero over any other Mexican restaurant in the area. read more

Quick service good menu. Vegetarian options too. Haven't tried fajitas but SIL said the best she's ever had. Discount coupons on back of some store register rec'ts. Delicious food. Love going there especially when we need a fast meal. read more

Visit this location frequently. Food is always fresh and brought out within minutes. I think the longest I've ever waited is 5 minutes for food. Lots and lots of choices and so many combos. Also the margaritas are very good as well and they have happy hours during the weeks and certain margarita days. read more

I know people are crazy about El Campesino (same owners), but if it really is "just like" El Campero then I have no idea why. Maybe I'm biased because there are so many better Mexican options in the greater Cleveland area, and this is really as good as it gets around Canton. We had lunch here on Saturday, and it was definitely the worst Mexican food I've ever had. I didn't think Mexican food could even be bad. My burrito was covered in some kind of sauce that tasted just like the gravy you get with mashed potatoes at KFC. The mild salsa tasted like soap. Those were probably the worst two details, but the meal overall was just not good. The food was sloppily presented and looked unappetizing. The waiter was confused by our orders, and didn't give us a clear answer to our questions (I didn't know until my meal arrived whether I would be getting a bean burrito or a beef burrito). And the restaurant had a bad smell. I definitely would rather have eaten at Taco Bell. read more

Prices were great! Staff was very friendly. Being from out of town, we were looking for a low key Mexican restaurant & this was just that. Will be back again if we are ever back in the area. read more

I love this place! Nice atmosphere, very helpful, pleasant, friendly staff. The fajitas are wonderful. It's nice to have a decent restaurant close to home. My only complaint would be the salsa. It is flavorless and pureed. read more

3021 Cleveland Ave SW., Canton, OH 44706 - I'm from New Mexico, so I know what good Mexican food is and this place has it! My favs are the Chili Colorado and Chori Pollo (with real Mexican style chorizo!). **Great service, great prices, great drinks and great food** read more

Just like El Campesino - good food

OK, parking is great; the service could not have been better - courteous and attentive. I liked the casual atmosphere, mariachi music, rural Mexico paintings. Now, 2 stars because the food was mediocre at best and the cost was unreasonable. We got the chile colorado and the meat was tough, chewy. Burritos, etc were just run of the mill: beans, rice, bland meat, low on seasoning, salsa dense w/cilantro. Generous servings, but I'd be happier w/more nuance, less volume. Finally $30 for two, for pretty unremarkable lunch, seems pricey. read more

Love this place so much. Food is great quality and is priced amazingly. I always look forward to going here with my friends and family. The service is also very good and I never feel rushed by them. Will continue to go here and will never grow tired of the greatness of this place. read more

Tasty little spot recommended through our hotel. Very nice staff and tasty food. Probably not the most authentic but if you visit Canton it's a nice spot to have a big cerveza and chimichanga's. read more

Great Mexican Place!!! I center my week around taco night which is tuesday. Dollar twcos that are well proportioned! Definitely recommend it to all! Even the margs are pretty good and decently sized! read more

Excellent food and service, the staff was great at the front desk too. Probably the best bang for your buck in the area. Enjoy!!!!

Restaurant is very clean, food is awesome, staff is fast and friendly and prices are reasonable. By far my favorite of all the local Mexican restaurants around. Get the grilled chicken taco salad. It's loaded with pollo :) read more

We eat at El Campero often. The staff is courteous and quick! They are always accommodating to our group size as well. The El Campero Fajitas are my favorite. The portions are very large. And you can never go wrong with the lime margaritas. Overall, when you leave El Campero you will be full and would have had a great time! read more

I haven't a clue why this place has such high marks. I have not eaten Mexican food this bad in decades.

My husband & I stopped in for lunch today. The food & service was adequate. When we got our bill, we were way overcharged! Our bill should have totaled $15.50 but their calculator showed $22.00. Someone obviously altered the calculator receipt slip & they hoped we wouldn't notice! We won't be back! read more

Best Mexican food around! Great prices and great for groups! Service is excellent as well

Great new addition to Canton South! The prices are a lot cheaper than most restaurants and they accept competitors coupons. The atmosphere is very casual and quiet and very clean! My husband and I had the El Campero fajitas and when they arrived we thought we got the dinner for two. The servings are large, the staff very friendly and attentive, and overall it was a great experience. We've gone to el galeron, talaquepaque, el campesino, mariachis and lots of others over the years but this place is the best small Mexican restaurant and we will definitely be back! read more

Had a real good server an food was good very few times is something not good here that's why we return. Thank You Canton South needs good business read more

Beings I used to live in El Campo Texas with Mexican neighbors on three sides etc I like to think I have a pretty decent handle on Mexican food. This first visit was better than I expected in Ohio. Place seemed clean(didn't visit the restrooms tho) and waitstaff neat and matching. Didn't notice any gringos working here and everyone I talked to had an accent(bonus points). Menu prices are probably a bit lower than Jaliscos in Salem/Alliance or Tlaquepaque in Canton. Comparable to the one (name anybody?) in Columbiana. Ordered the lunch chimichanga, chicken, and arrived quickly; hot fresh and very nice appearance. Oh and chips and salsa were as good as any imo. Chicken may have been a bit bland if eating by itself but the overall chimi was awesome. Rice was decent, beens had plenty of that to-die-for-melted-Mexican-cheese. If the place was a little larger I'd bring Folks and inlaws. This place nailed it for me. read more

El Campero - Lunch chicken chimi - Mexican Near Me - Canton, Ohio

Seen this place while getting my license plates, so the wife and I went on in and ate. Great food, service and the folks that work there were excellent very friendly with a great meal and a great affordable price. A few months have gone past and since then we have taken our whole entire family there 5 more time's none of us can get enough of it. Beats driving to Massillon and New Philly but if the both of the others were this good wouldn't mind the drive. I'm sticking with El Campero folk's. read more
