Papas Dorados (French fries) with queso chorizo & pico
Judy E.

Arrived and were seated immediately. The booth was very cramped ... but we made it work. The restaurant was decorated in a typical Mexican restaurant way with bold colors and items from Mexican places around strategically. The menu was disappointing kind of big but it was a more Americanized version of Mexican food and I was looking for an authentic Mexican restaurant for dinner. The photos of the food are of more authentic dishes, but when you come in, read the descriptions on the items you realize that the owners have pretty much designed or reimagined all the dishes but for an more American target audience - not a bad thing for them but not the experience I wanted. I order the flautas (rolled tacos) 4 came with the order, guac & sour cream plus lettuce and tomato (I asked for them to leave that off I wasn't going to eat it anyway) no rice or beans I had to order that extra (‍) My son ordered a French fry appetizer My mom a chicken & steak plate. The chips & salsa were ok. Salsa lacked any real spice or flavor it tasted like tomato and oregano. I didn't have any. I ordered an horchata & it was fresh & delicious & the mug it came in was also pretty cool looking. My son really enjoyed his fried zero complaints there they had queso, chorizo & pico on them. My mom enjoyed her plate as well. My food was "ok" the meat in my flautas lacked seasoning & they were extremely greasy. The guacamole was tasteless & looked very unappealing so I didn't eat that, the rice & beans were very good delicious actually, the rice was probably my favorite part of my meal. Overall good definitely not terrible just not terribly authentic maybe somewhere in the middle.

Customer service was amazing per usual. For the past 6 months I've come here a couple of times and the food has never disappointed. Everything is always cooked fresh to perfection and the margaritas are delicious. I've never had to wait no more than 15 minutes for food. Overall the prices are reasonable and the food comes in large quantities. I definitely recommend this location!!

The service was amazing and the food came out so fast! It was very flavorful and the homemade tortillas made a huge difference. Great Mexican restaurant highly recommend

Classic Mexican restaurant on the inside. Server Omar was really friendly and helpful. Asked for a box for my chips and salsa at the end of the meal and he gave me a new bag of both! Taco plate was a good classic take. Got two pastor, one steak and one birria. Actually ended up liking the steak the best. Served as they should be with cilantro and onion. Needed a side of lime. Also the corn tortillas were a bit flimsy and one fell apart. Otherwise a great meal. Would definitely return!

Fine Mexican food and friendly service. Nice environment inside and plenty of room. One of my favorite restaurants. Convenient location with easy access in and out

My first meal at El Mariachi! Yummm.

This was our first time trying this location and it was definitely a lot better than I expected. We have tried multiple Mexican restaurants and I think my husband and I both agree that we enjoyed this one the most out of the ones in the area. We ordered several different dishes. We ordered the Molcajete combo which was nice and tender but was missing the sizzling bowl where the cheese would melt. However, it was still good. The birria tacos were flavorful, beef was tender, and overall tasted great My husband ordered the Al pastor burrito which was on the smaller side and the pork lacked flavor like it was almost bland. And we ordered our 2 year old chicken, cheese, and rice. The service was pretty good, the bathrooms were clean, and overall the restaurant was clean and aesthetically pleasing! It didn't feel super tight or dark. I also saw they had fresh homemade desserts like cakes which I'd love to try next time we try more things on the menu!

The quesabirria taco seemed more like a hard shell taco, was disappointed, I wouldn't get them again from this place.

It's so good I almost don't want people to know. But they earned a great review! Best Mexican food in town.
