    3 Salsas Enchiladas
    Jesse L. R.

    Looking to try somewhere new in the area we ended up at El Rodeo. Their reviews looked good, so we had to give them a try. The restaurant was clean and well decorated. The staff was friendly, although very slow for the amount of people in the restaurant. It started out good with delicious chips and salsa. I had a jalapeño margarita, which was good at the first sip, but not so much by the end. Being a lover of enchiladas, I went with the three salsas enchiladas, which looked delicious served either rice and black beans. The rice was extremely dry and had clearly been overcooked or sitting around for a very long time. It was pretty much inedible. The beans were good at least. The chicken in the enchiladas was so dry you could probably grow a cactus in it. The flavors of the enchiladas were highly muted by the extremely dry chicken. If it weren't for the queso that we ordered with the chips, the entire meal would have been a loss. Sorry, but not even giving this place a second try, it was really bad!

    Lousy!!!! We decided to give them a try, the chips and salsa came out and I honestly thought "oh wow, this salsa is delicious" and had high hopes for everything else. The drinks came out looking great, unfortunately, not the case... Then the food arrived and both of our dishes sucked in plain English. I ordered Pollo a la Crema, as it's generally a go to choice for me at Mexican restaurants and this was AWFUL. No flavor, the chicken was dry and rubbery like and I think they forgot the sour cream sauce that is always in this dish, they gave me about a Tablespoon of re-fried beans and the rice was hard as a rock! So undercooked! It was definitely one of the worst meals we've ever had out. Oddly enough, it was Jesse's Birthday too... so that made me feel bad. Will never EVER visit again while in Maine!

    Door was extremely good. Large portions, fresh. The service was a bit slow for a lunch time with only 4 people on the restaurant.

Service was prompt and friendly. Have to say that the tables need a good cleaning. I'm in the business and know the difference between clean and sanitized; a table can be dirty but be sanitized. It had that sticky, greasy film on it from always being just wiped with sanitizing solution but never being cleaned with soap and hot water. Great glass of sauvignon blanc, my brother had diet coke and water as he just finished s work out at the gym. I ordered a bowl of the clam chowder and we both ordered the beet salad, my brother adding the airline chix breast to his. The chowder was disappointing. It was tepid and the potatoes were still a bit hard. Both of our salads were great. Candy cane striped beets, blue cheese, good vinaigrette. My brother's chicken perfectly cooked. I wanted to talk to a manager about the soup and the table but see anyone on the floor who appeared to be supervising. My 1st visit I did leave a great review as everything was top notch.
