The drinks and atmosphere are the selling points. The food is average though. I think they are cooking for white people. So get one of their margaritas and just relax. read more

Always love El Leoncito! We call it El's here as Titusvillians. They food is always great with a unique mix of Cuban and Mexican options on the menu. Their tacos (in any form) are always a solid choice, their burritos and enchiladas are great sized dishes that you would expect from a good Mexican restaurant, their chips are great and they have multiple salsa you can order. Their typical salsa is normally quite mild. My wife and I enjoy their take out too since we are in the little toddlers season of life. They don't hold back on portions if you order Togo or on door dash and they send SO many chips with whatever you order. And salsa. So great! This is the fajitas for two with steak and chicken which is our normal go to from El's. Love this place! read more

El Leoncito - Titusville - Fajitas for two - Mexican Near Me - Titusville, Florida

They have a combination of Mexican and Cuban cuisine. I had Tacos birra and rice with refried beans, the portions were generous and the food was great. Service use to be better but it may have been our waitress who was not paying much attention to us . The place is great for conversation with friends and relaxation read more

Inside was very nice and promising, busy even. We stopped for a bite on the way back from the beach but unfortunately not very impressed. The drinks were not very well made, unfortunately we felt we couldn't even drink this. The food isn't terrible but we were not impressed with the lack of flavor in each dish, it felt very plainly made. If you're not big flavor but still want cultural dishes, you may like this place. The service was also not very good, our server seemed uninterested but was also not always the one serving us. There was a mixup with the food, they left dishes on our table for about three minutes until he could say it wasn't our correct order and brought it straight to the next table instead. We found this to be a bit unsanitary. I want to give the benefit of the doubt of it being a busy day for them but I can't honestly recommend from my first visit. read more

El Leoncito - Titusville - BIRRIA TACOS - Mexican Near Me - Titusville, Florida

I ordered the carnitas which tasted great, it just took longer than it should have to order food from the bar. To be fair we were there on margarita Monday, so they were making a lot of drinks. The AC was also down that particular day so the temperature inside the bar was toasty. read more

An amazing dinner experience, wonderful quality dishes. The restaurant decor was very lovely and there was plenty of parking available. The staff was very hospitable. I ordered the fajita and my bf ordered the steak both dishes came with rice, beans and tortillas. The steak was tender and the fajitas were excepcional. Both of our dishes arrived fast and the food was savory. Real Mexican cuisine. The rice and beans were very savory and the margaritas were amazing!! Highly recommend to visit this restaurant. Ps Genni took great care of us! She was very attentive. read more

Love the birria tacos. The guava pineapple margarita was sooo good. Always great service.

I had some Palomas, shrimp cocktail, and shrimp tacos. I came here cause I wasn't close to a good sushi place and was looking for something fresh. This place was it, delicate flavors, fresh everything from scratch. I also love the inside of the area so cool all around. And Joy was a awesome bartender/server and get this Caribe's!!!! read more

We wanted margaritas and nachos and that's what we got !! We always forget about "Happy Hour" in FL. We missed it but keep in mind that it does exist. Margaritas were a great value and tasted good too. The nachos were also good. We would stop by again. There were some big plates of yummy food that were being served all around us. Maybe next time. The HOT salsa was really hot !!! Yay ! read more

Great menu to choose from and everything was delicious. This was my 3rd visit and enjoyed every time I went. The ride from Orlando was 40 minutes but a nice day trip. The service was excellent and a manager stopped by to make sure all was good but he was a little rushed, didn't stop moving as he walked past. read more

Everything including the service food was high-quality. Paulina is one of the best waitresses I've ever had. She's awesome.

Everything was amazing. We don't like spicy food and they brought us a mild salsa that was so fresh. Everything we ordered tasted great. Service was fantastic. Definitely will visit again read more

The food was good , server Luis was helpful and bus man Magel was amazing. Magel was so attentive and friendly.

This place is phenomenal. I got a frozen strawberry margarita, the molcajete, and fried icecream. The prices were good and was able to split with leftovers this main meat dish for $35. It was flavorful and the service was great! It's pretty busy inside too which is a good indicator. I've never had fried icecream before, but I definitely fell in love after having it. I would come back for sure! TikTok Reviewer: acaicaitlin read more

El Leoncito - Titusville - El MOLCAJETE - Mexican Near Me - Titusville, Florida

You hear Leoncito and you think Mexican, but some of the best dishes are Cuban. Tonight the Ceviche was phenomenal, and the Thursday special Lechon (Cuban Pork) was perfect with yellow rice and the best black beans you can find anywhere. Happy hour Margaritas were a perfect compliment. I left completely satisfied. I've been coming here since the 90's when lunch was a burrito the size of your head. While the pepto-pink bathroom had a certain ambiance, I'm glad they are still here and serve great food. read more

Not impressed. Sat outside, and glad I did, they have mariachi going around the restaurant singing (they were great) but tbh the space felt tight. I was feeling a litter over stimulated but the breeze outside made it better. Did not like my food, I ordered arroz con pollo and tostones. The arroz con pollo was a bit meh (the seasoning is missing something) and the tostones were soggy. Service person didn't tend to me very much as I was alone , thus leaving me waiting to ask for things like salt, a refill , and napkins. Not sure I would recommend this place for food but it's a nice place to sit outside and enjoy the view. I have a stomach ache now. Great! read more

The service, the food and ambiance were great. We were happy to find a place with friendly staff, great food and reasonable prices. We sat inside but there are great outdoor sitting with views of the river and park. We had the steak and chicken fajitas with the 2 for 1 margaritas. Will visit again when we are back in the area. read more

Great food. Our server was friendly and attentive. Wonderful Cuban sandwiches with generous portions in a cozy atmosphere

Haven't been here in years and won't wait so long again! Looks the same as it always had. We started with quesadilla with ground beef. It was good and hot. Not spectacular but good. Jess had steak fajita and I had palomilla steak. Both dinners were excellent. Big portions and everything tasted homemade. We both liked dinner a lot. Saw some nice looking desserts but we were not offered any. Oh well, maybe next time. We will be back. read more

Not the friendliest staff or bartenders. I walked out before ordering and went elsewhere. It feels like a factory. I much prefer the Mexican restaurant in Titus Landing shopping center, which is more modern and big windows. It has much more welcoming, friendlier, happier staff and their food is better! Service is much faster; better prices too. I'm never going back to El Lioncito read more

Good service, good food and great prices! Definitely a go to for our family. If you're lucky you'll see a launch!

I have visited many times and feel that I can make a reasonable decision on rating the food and service of this establishment. While there are many good tasting items that I have found enjoyable such as the Cuban sandwiches, salads such as the California salad and many items ala carte such as the enchilada. There is 1 item that I have to mention that I ordered which was the chili rellenos that I do not care for. The dinner plate comes with rice and beans like most Mexican restaurants and the chips and salsa were just about average. Seems that the chips were thrown in a basket with no care and some were overcooked, the salsa was great but I would have preferred some extra on my food when it arrived . All in all I give it a thumbs up on ambience but average on the food and service read more

The chips were cold and hard. The flautas had no taste to them at all. Service was decent. The flavors were lacking.

Went in for lunch, nice clean restaurant, service was good. Had the enchilada combo it was delicious. Good portions and prices.

A significant back up on I-95 heading south after a trip to Orlando brought my husband and I to El Leoncita. We pulled off the highway and looked for a place to have an early dinner. Yelp led us to El Leoncita. Service and food were only so-so. We stood at the host stand for several minutes before anyone on staff acknowledged us. After we were seated, it took a few minutes for someone to bring us menus. Our server was friendly but the overall pace was slow throughout the meal. The chips in our chips and salsa tasted stale. The chicken fajitas I ordered weren't seasoned well and tasted bland. Curiously, the peppers and onions that accompanied the chicken were tasty and nicely seasoned. Portion sizes were generous and I took some home for lunch the next day. The decor is cute and bright. There is an outdoor seating area and a bar inside as well. It looks like a fun place to hang out with family or friends. I might give El Leoncita another chance if I'm in the area again. read more
