    grande Burritos Grande
    Kyra W.

    The service was very nice, I will start off by saying that. But everything tasted old. The leattuce, salsa, steak, everything in my grande burrito and everyone at my tables food tasted old and gross. Very very disappointed:(

    a plate of food

    The food is amazing, I had the chimichanga and rice. The staff was friendly and the food came fast. The ambiance is a typical Mexican restaurant.

    Great fajitas at El Loro! If you like delicious charred veggies and tender meat, order the fajitas for two. This plate has shrimp, chicken, carnitas pork and steak. It's huge and we always take home enough for a second meal. Service is fast and friendly. Salsa is fresh and mild, but they do have several types of hot sauce if you need more heat. Cute decor with colorful murals. Full bar. We'll be back.

    Fajita Taco salad that became way too watery to enjoy.

    From the parking lot the restaurant looked a little rough...could use some paint and general clean up but it looked busy so I gave it a try. We were seated promptly in the restaurant that was well below 50% occupied and fewer than 5 guests in the bar area. Chips were fine but our basket was 1/3 comprised of small, broken chips making me wonder if it was refreshed after prior guest. The salsa was chilled, obviously homemade, above average spicy and appeared freshly prepared. El Loro offers a large menu with reasonable pricing including a number of lunchtime specials. I selected an entree from the regular menu; Fajita Taco Salad (see photos) which arrived promptly and hot. Unfortunately, by the time I was halfway through the salad, the remaining ingredients were swimming in liquid (see photo). Really disappointing as it would have been easier to finish the salad (which had become a stew) with a spoon. Our server, who was friendly and took our order promptly upon arrival, disappeared until we were almost finished eating. If she had checked on us earlier my lunch partner would have shown her the large chicken bone found in her lunch menu Taco Salad. Another server (maybe a manager type?) refreshed our soft drinks. By this point the restaurant was less than 20% occupied. Ahh...the restrooms. The men's room floor was sticky and the towel dispenser wasn't working properly but apparently the ladies side was even worse. The floor was described a "the worst ever...my shoes almost stuck to them," and the room was "really dark." That's the kind of thing that causes me to consider the cleanliness of the kitchen...know what I mean? I love Mexican food and prefer to spend my time and money with independent owners/operators of all cuisines. At the same time every Yelper should expect a better experience than this disappointing spot that ignores attention to service, food and cleanliness basics. Drive past...there are so many better options.

    Molcajete

    Great service! Margaritas the size of my head! We had such a fun family dinner at El Loro. I wanted to try something new other than the usual burritos I normally order. I got a molcajete which is basically steak and chicken, peppers, cheese all served on an extremely hot volcanic stone bowl. It was a large portion and I could only finish about half of it! Made for some great leftovers!

    Mostly disappointing - I won't be back. If you like bland American style fake Mexican food with lots of iceberg lettuce, mayo, flour tortillas, and rice - then this place is for you. If your standards are a little higher, you might want to skip this one. GOOD: 1. The service was very good (until the end). 2. The food came out quickly and piping hot. 3. The prices were all very reasonable. 4. The restaurant itself was very bright, cheery, and clean. 5. The stuffed jalapenos were pretty good (but they didn't need to be served on a mountain of iceberg lettuce). BAD: 1. The food ranged from boring to sub-par. For example: the salsa dip was watery & bland, the white cheese dip was watery & bland and tasted overwhelmingly like mayo, and the entrees were boring and featured lots of iceberg lettuce, sweet blobs of mayo, and white flour tortillas...light on the good stuff like meat. I would have gotten more flavor and satisfaction at Chipotle or Taco Bell. 2. Our server helped himself to a $10.00 cash tip at the end of dinner. Our final tab for 2 people was $34.84. We gave him a $50.00 bill and intended to let him keep the $5.16 (15%) and we'd keep the 10 dollar bill. But he came back to the table with $5.16 and he had already pocketed the other $10.00 (equaling a 30% tip). I was pissed and I wanted to complain to the manager. But my cousin is a kind-hearted born-again Christian. He said that the server must need the money more than we do so we should just let him keep it. I deferred to him and we left without making a fuss. But I'm not as forgiving of this kind of crap as my cousin. I need to mention it here because it completely ruined the previous good service we had received and it left a VERY bad taste in my mouth after dinner! I'm glad I tried out El Loro but I definitely won't be back. Two stars. -Daddy Maxx Retro

    They do actually have tortas and they are fantastic. The bread is great. The portion is huge. It's messy but damn it's good.
