Overall the staff is pretty good too. The ambience is very loud and rowdy, like a loud cafeteria. Lots of people conversing and enjoying dinner in big groups which is typical. The margs probably amp it up too tbh. The food is pretty good, what you would expect piping hot and cheesy. I like that they bring out an array of sauces with the chips even a bean dip which is unique. Then enchiladas and vegetarian plates are well made and filling. I enjoy the enchiladas that come in bean, cheese chicken and beef. Overall a nice place, culturally decorated and conveniently located near Walmart and other shops. Doesn't disappoint, check them out, when you are craving some Mexican cuisine!

I got the El Burro Estrello wo onions it had green, yellow and red peppers and I got steak as the meat. It was very good. The sauce on this is amazing I highly recommend, I would def order it again it was so much food I'm so full. My husband got the pick 2 combo and got cheese enchiladas with rice and beans, he liked it and would order again. I can't tell you enough how good the salsa is here it's so good we ate like 3 bowls even my kids ate it and they won't anywhere else! Try it out it's a good place.

Wood booths with the El Jimador logo decorate each booth. The staff is attentive with numerous check-ins during the meal. Frequent water refills, extra salsa and chips and all around customer care make this dining experience a pleasant one. As for the food, the fajitas come in numerous combinations that include old favorites like steak and chicken, but also include creative combos like steak/chicken/bacon, which is one of my favorites. The fajitas, which I have had several times are excellent and flavorful. Fajitas are my favorite section of the menu. The other parts of the menu are less consistent. The tacos are good but inconsistent and lack flavor. Everything feels authentic and tasty. Overall I really like this restaurant.

Wow. I came to visit my daughter at Clemson & took her and her bf out to what should've been a fun…read moreMexican dinner. What a disappointment ! It was very busy, so the extremely slow service was somewhat understandable. What wasn't understandable, was 30 mins after ordering entrees, the server came over to ask my daughter's BF if he had ordered the $80 tomahawk steak. He looked shocked and said no, he ordered the steak and shrimp fajitas. Shortly after, he brought my daughter's and my entrées. We waited for quite some time for her BF's entrée to arrive. 20 to 25 minutes later he brought out steak fajitas minus the shrimp. At that point we had basically finished our entrées. We pointed out to the server that the shrimp was missing from his entrée and he disappeared. We had asked for the bill because it was already getting very late and we had other plans. He brought our bill over with no adjustment at all. I commented that they should have done something based on the fact that not only was the meal completely disappointing, but they brought him the wrong entrée. He then brought the manager over who made a lame apology saying they were very busy and I explained that it had nothing to do with the busyness, but that the server had a limited understanding of English, and had placed the wrong order. He then gave us $5 off the bill. FIVE DOLLARS??? That's not even a drink. Don't bother with this restaurant when there are so many other better Mexican options to choose from. Shame on you taking advantage of the college crowd and their families.

Several of us ordered them custom made. Everyone enjoyed them. Well prepared. The chips were crispy. They brought a warm bean dip with was great. They also have a salsa bar in the back with quite a variety of salsas to fit any taste... the spicy pineapple salsa was tops on my list. We had beer, wine, margaritas... across the four of us. Everyone liked what they got. The wine menu is basic, they have a bar so whatever you want is available, they had a nice selection of beer appropriate for the Mexican theme. We will definitely be coming back. Oh, we got there at 5 and were the second table occupied in the place. By 5:30 the place was full. So, on a Friday night be aware that the place is popular.
