    carne asada was very dry

    Don't get me wrong the place looks nice and It has live music . But hear me out i've tried lots of mexican places in and out of the state. I get that they are near the broadway. But their food is no bueno. Also very small proportions and almost all plates are 20 dollars. limited options to choose from, I got the carne asada and my boyfriend got choripollo. Both the carne and the chicken were very dry with no flavor. while we were here we saw others leave because of bad service and because they were not being attended. waiters need work and kitchen does also. band was the only good thing that came out of this meal .

    My husband and I had dinner here while on vacation at Myrtle Beach. The restaurant was absolutely beautiful. There were large booths that were set apart in these tulip-like cocoons. We ate at a booth in the beautiful bar area that looks like one from a cruise ship. Reuben was our server. He was efficient and very attentive. I had a mojito and was delighted to find it was happy hour. My drink was delicious. My husband had steak tacos, and enchiladas with salsa verde. Both of us really enjoyed our dinner and the atmosphere at this restaurant. Highly recommend.

    El Cerro Bar and Grill has opened in a brand-new building downtown Myrtle Beach, right on Kings Highway near 3rd Avenue South beside the old Krispy Kreme. The location is easy to find, with plenty of clean parking. From the moment you walk through the two massive, castle-like doors, you'll notice the restaurant's clean and spacious layout, complete with high ceilings that give it an open, inviting feel. We were promptly greeted, seated, and quickly served chips, salsa, and our beverages. I ordered the queso birria, while my dining partner went with tacos. Both dishes were very good and freshly made. The restaurant also offers a full bar, so there's no shortage of options if you're looking for a cocktail or other libations. One small note--if you plan to customize your order (such as leaving off onions or lettuce), be sure to make your request very clear. Our tacos initially came out with toppings we had asked to leave off, but the staff was very accommodating and replaced the order without hesitation. Overall, El Cerro Bar and Grill makes for a solid lunch or dinner choice in downtown Myrtle Beach, whether you're craving tacos, birria, or just looking for a relaxing spot with good food and a full bar.

    First time visit. Ordered the shrimp ceviche and the "El Cerro Special". The food all tasted very good. The complementary chips and salsa were delicious. Our server, Steven provided us excellent service and suggestions. The ambience of this restaurant is unlike any other Mexican restaurant that I've been to. They have a large bar with the list of drinks to choose from. Ample TV with various programs and nice lively background music playing. Thankful that I had a great experience. Keep up the great work.

    This has quickly become one of our favorites in Myrtle beach. The atmosphere is amazing, service is…read morefriendly, prices are good, and food is delicious. So they do get 5 stars in my book... However, now that we've gone multiple times i can confidently say it is rather inconsistent. Sometimes your burrito is swimming in an amazing cover of cheese and sometimes is a little more than a drizzle. This latest time something must have been a little off because my tried and true Al Pastor burrito came with 95% rice inside... I don't think I saw any beans and only a few pieces of meat. Again - this is not the norm and my great experiences outweighed this last visit, but consistency in the long run will be important. I'd also agree with the reviews saying they like to charge for upsells and they are pretty good at pushing them. I love their house hot sauce but paying a dollar for hot sauce at a Mexican restaurant seems a bit absurd... Overall worth a try and we will continue coming back but there is some fine tuning for management!

    I've been here for happy hour a couple times now and both times its been relatively bustling…read more The food here is good and their happy hour pricing is very fair. 6 dollar coconut margs are nice and chips and chorizo queso for 6 bucks would be too, if you could get someone to bring you a chips refill. I subtracted two stars because on each of my trips here, the service has pretty much sucked. Both times our party was basically totally forgotten about...no refills on chips or waters and we had to go off elsewhere inside to flag someone down simply to get and then pay our bill. Unfortunately, this consistent shoddy service keeps me from returning in the future. Oh well, lots of other happy hours in Myrtle to enjoy, like Sol y Luna in Carolina Forest.

    In researching local restaurants, I read a review that stated they had never had a bad meal in…read moretheir life (?) before this and gave this place 2 stars because the chips and salsa were good. I dismissed that review because I couldn't comprehend NEVER having a bad meal before. Come to find out...that review was spot on! After being seated, we were served chips and salsa. The chips were atypical; thicker than a traditional tortilla chip, but good. The salsa was also different, but delicious. We each ordered the beef chimichangas. Our server was not fluent enough to tell us if it was steak or ground beef and the menu didn't list the options either. Our meals were served with beans and rice on the side. The beans were cold and the rice extremely hot with an unpalatable seasoning that I couldn't identify. The chimichangas had a protein that wasn't ground beef, wasn't steak and wasn't good. It was a weird texture, unlike any beef I've ever had. My first bite was filled with gristle and difficult to chew. The second bite was filled with that odd textured "beef". The third bite was again all gristle and I was all done. I couldn't bring myself to take a fourth bite. Overall it was a terrible meal. On top of that we were charged a 4% for using our credit card. I know this is becoming more commonplace, but it wasn't stated on the menu and definitely not mentioned by the server. Also 4% is on the high side. This Desayundador is NO Buenos!
