Our favorite family own Mexican around! Great service and the best salsa around! We eat here 3x a month and can't get enough of the taco's enchilada's or chimmi's! read more

I enjoy going here. Everything I've ordered was great. Prices are reasonable, portions are good. Service was fast and friendly. I've never had a poor experience eating at El Rodeo. read more

I love this place! My daughter and I go here every two weeks and we are never disappointed! The service is ALWAYS fast and the food is very fresh! We have tried other Mexican places and they just don't compare! read more

This is a family run, authentic Guadalajara style restaurant. The menu is interesting and varied and the food is delicious. The decor is over the top with color, but so authentic for its Mexican town. The family work very hard to make sure you have a good experience. It is my new favorite Mexican restaurant locally. read more

Went here for lunch. Had the lunch buffet. Food was eh, not the worst Mexican food I've had. I'm not sure if I have high exceptions coming from the greater NYC area or what but this place was depressing. Won't be returning. read more

We returned a car to Enterprise and decided someplace close was a good option after a long trip. I complimented the Christmas tree to the hostess/waitress. No response. She asked how many and dropped two menus at a booth and kept walking. Ms. Personality. Other reviewers are correct - It all happens fast. We got chips (overcooked) & salsa (meh), ordered, and minutes later, hot plates and warm food were set before us. G got the two quesadilla combo and I got the one quesadilla combo. I have never seen smaller quesadillas but I guess that 's what you get for $7.99 (my combo). I asked for no peppers and got that plus no onion and a dot or two of cheese. The rice and beans were okay but the pico de gallo tasted like watermelon...possibly from the unripened pink tomatoes. It's like they don't care anymore. Not going back for sure. Even though I haven't quite lived here a year, I can report that Cocos Locos near the hospital is hands down fantastic. Rancho Los Alazanes in Chesterland is also great. El Palenque on Vine St has an issue here and there but still way above El Rodeo. read more

El Rodeo - One quesadilla combo dinner for $7.99 - Mexican Near Me - Mentor, Ohio

See all

It's fine, not the best mex food. We got chimichangas, they were ok, shredded beef was a bit dry. Portions are fairly big, dinners come with beans and rice. Guac was ok, but not amazing. Everything needed to be spiced up a bit. read more

Awesome food, service, and atmosphere. The portion sizes were large (I had the quesadilla fajitas) and it was muy exellento! We will definitely be coming back! read more

I Have been here a few times in the past and it was good, I don't know what happened today. We went for lunch and ate outside, our waitress was very unfriendly. The food was bad. I got Texas fajitas and the green pepper and onions were raw. My sons food came out 5 minutes after everyone else's and no apology. Won't be ever going back. read more

Authentic ...quick ... Friendly. Lunch Buffet is a great deal, restocked regularly, service is prompt w many checkbacks, not stingy w chip refills. Multiple servers smiling and saying hi even if not your server. read more

Food is terrible, Ordered Lunch special No.14, chicken quesadilla, with quacamole, rice, lettuce and tomato. I ended up with a chicken soft taco, like Taco Bells, no quacamole, a sliver of tomato. NO flavor whatso ever. Will not go back. read more

My rating would be maybe 2-1/2 but definitely not 3 stars. Was in the mood for Mexican food. And I wanted real Mexican food not whatever that stuff is that they serve at Taco Bell. I lived in mentor during my high school years but have lived out towards Cleveland for many years and recently came back to mentor. There are soooo many restaurants here now! Does anyone in mentor cook? Where I was living though there were practically no restaurants and the few that there were more than half of them are just plain BAD! Anyway I checked reviews here and some were very good. Some were pretty bad. But the prices looked somewhat reasonable it's very close to where I'm living so I took a chance. I ordered ala carte 1 tostada 1 BEEF chillie relanos 1 beef enchilada 1 cheese enchilada and one ground beef burrito some guacamole and pico digalo when I got there my food was not ready which was ok I think I was a few mins early and was fine by me cuz now when I got my food right out of the kitchen it should be nice and hot. Cold Mexican food is just ewwww! The lady at the register was quite friendly she spoke with a thick Spanish accent so I thought GOOD! The people here should know how to make real authentic food. About 5 mins later I received paid and went straight home with my order. I don't even live five mins away. I got home got my utensils beverages plates etc opened up and started to dive in first thing was the BEEF chillie relanos...... Cold. I don't know what kind of cheese they used but it was nasty. Is there such a thing as Mexican American cheese? That's what it tasted like. Wheres the BEEF??? None to speak of that I could find.. soggy and just plain bad tasting. Into the garbage it went. Next was the beef "enchilada" MEH.... it was ok I guess kind of bland and sauce there was just something not right about it. Can't realy put my finger on it. I'm not the greatest cook but I'm not the worst either but I believe I could make a better sauce. Next cheese enchilada liked it was not bad but to be brutally honest there's a frozen cheese enchilada dinner at giant eagle that's much better. Next up the Burrito.... (I THINK...) if this was indeed a burrito it was exactly the same as the beef enchilada same size same resemblance same flavor same sauce same strange ground beef the ground beef wasn't terrible but there was something off about that as well some said in there reviews the meat tastes like chineese food I might agree with that but frankly the Chinese food I have had in the past was better than this. There was no lettuce tomato onion sour cream or anything maybe they messed up the order I'm not sure I hope that's what it was cuz that was the worst burrito I ever had. Also Burrito and enchiladas..... COLD as well. Tostada Cold and corn tortia STALE sour cream ..."Ewwww!" Same weird ground beef... Into the garbage it went. They gave me chips and salsa I guess they came with the order ..... MEH. OK I guess could have been better kinda greasy rather bland and salsa was not very good into the garbage they went. Pico digallo was good a lot of cilantro though but that's just me I like cilantro but could do without it. Guacamole was very good only problem with that was there was the great big hard stem top piece mixed in mine could have done without that nasty thing in there! NO JOKE the next day I had a BAAADDDD! Case of diarrhea! I wish I went to Taco Bell. read more

If this had been the first Mexican restaurant I had ever been to, I would be one of those people who say "I don't like Mexican food". I, however, LOVE Mexican food. I DID NOT like the Mexican food at El Rodeo. Stringy, tough steak fahitas, guacomole seemingly from a food service, salsa was "meh", chips warm but a bit stale, enchaladas Mexicana uninspiring, margarhitas from a mix. It WAS clean. read more

Stopped in for lunch. Friendly atmosphere, value and really tasty food. Lunch fajitas with chicken were more flavorable than most but never felt greasy or heavy. Tasty chips/salsa and classic margaritas! Happy customer here. read more

Fast service and very friendly - our server Lupe was the best!

Loved it when it first came to town. Now, it seems darker, dirtier, sloppier plates served. Not close to authentic, as I had hoped, a step up from Taco Bell, but not too big a step. read more
