I've been going to El Saltillo for years, and they never disappoint. The waiters are friendly and efficient. The food is always good. I've never had reason to complain. I would recommend this restaurant to anyone who likes Mexican food. read more

I went in to grab some Mexican tacos. Your girl was craving some cilantro and lime. I ordered the lengua tacos. They were seriously the best that I've had in a long time. I'm kinda hooked and will be on this food fixation for awhile. With the tacos I also got some beans and rice which was also great quality. Tasty. Texture spot on. Last thing that I got was the chips and salsa. Which of course I added a side of queso dip to. All perfect. Chips crunchy. Cheese smooth and creamy. The salsa was my star of this dinner show. She had beauty. She had grace. But them spices will kick you in the face. And I have to shout out to the gentleman that served me my food. He was so sweet and polite. His calling me Senorita and giving me a delicious meal will have me tipping too much every time. lol. I should have gotten his name but he was a great food service person. I will be back a lot. But if any of you have any recommendations that I just have to try please throw them suggestions my way! read more

Nice ambiance with low lighting. Attentive friendly servers. We loved our food it was delicious. read more

El Saltillo - Perfect rice. Thick flavorful refried beans with cheese and delicious meat filled fried pork burrito. The free bean soup was amazing! - Mexican Near Me - Ocean Springs, Mississippi

The food was okay but the thing that turned us off the most was that the drink order we put in was forgotten. I had to get up and remi d the server and she simply said "oops, I forgot" and brought our mediocre margaritas out after our dinner ended. read more

I would like to recommend El Satillo for your dining needs. The food is great and the staff is friendly.

I love this place! I'd much more rather order to-go here than wait for crappy Taco Bell. I appreciate their prices and even more their customer service thank you for quality food read more

Steak tacos sooooo delicious and flavorful. Their salsa is fresh, my fav out of the Mexican restaurants we have tried. Service is a little slow but to be expected when they are always busy. read more

Overall his place is decent. The prices are average to good and the salsa is decent. My only major complaint is the super salty pseudo "cheese" (I.e. one-step-up-from-plastic, processed cheese food) that they use. It ruins the flavor of the actual food ingredients and it's disgusting! I made the mistake of ordering a quesadilla and ended up trying to scrape the "cheese" off of the tortilla and other ingredients. I won't seek to return to this place but IF I end up at this place again I will order food WITHOUT "CHEESE" read more

I've been to both restaurants-- this one and the one in Biloxi. Ordinarily, when a restaurant had completely inattentive staff, there is just no way I'd give them four stars. Likewise, the cleanliness is a little marginal as well. BUT THE FOOD IS RIDICULOUS. So I cannot go below a four star review. I just can't. Because the 24-oz Margarita (be it mango or traditional) is just amazing. I had the Zacatecano Shrimp and they were stunning, while my partner had the carnitas burrito and he loved every bite. The food is first so good, it makes you forget about the fact that you had to wipe off your seat or your server was missing for huge chunks of time. read more

Best American Mexican food in OS. Salsa is on the spicy side which I loved. Staff is always very friendly too.

Queso was okay not amazing but decent for needing the Mexican kick ya need.. food was okay too.

The food was good, but the customer service attitude was so bad that I will not be going back. The host was very curt.

The food was tasty, service was mediocre in that we had to flag a server for chips and salsa and a drink order. We had so much time between seating and that event we were able to place our dinner order as well. Our server didn't return to our table to check on us until time for our check. The order was quite some time coming out to the point a good portion of the fajita meat was lukewarm to cold. When our server came by we asked for boxes and our check. While placing our leftovers in our boxes, we were greeted by a German cockroach crawling across our table. Needless to say, that was it. I left cash for the meal plus a generous tip but I can assure you I won't return. We didn't want the leftovers after that, as our desire for food from this establishment was done. I don't punish servers for bad service, so I'm not sorry I paid him. However, poor service and the bug left a bitter experience. read more

Not bad for a "Mexican" restaurant in ocean springs. Didn't expect much & I wasn't disappointed. Chips & salsa were standard. Crispy, not greasy. But cold as my X's heart. The salsa was decent. Spicy. Good garlic flavor & lots of cilantro. Ordered the burrito, something "bandito". Looked promising upon arrival but quickly took a nose dive after cutting into it. They rolled it to give the appearance of something much grander than what it was. Probably about 4oz of chopped carne asada. Dry, burnt & salty AF!! Also had rice, beans,LTO, sour cream & pico I think. It was covered in red salsa, white queso blanco & salsa verde. Just wasn't that good. Was luke warm, salty & the flour tortilla wasn't even fresh. But for the price $11 bucks. Was palatable. Oh. Service was mediocre. Wasn't busy & had to keep asking for my water to be refilled. Yes. I went through 3 waters. It was that salty. I think my kidneys are shot. read more

El Saltillo - Burrito something bandito. Looks can be deceiving. Not much meat & ungodly salty. - Mexican Near Me - Ocean Springs, Mississippi

I ordered a cheese and onion quesadilla which I could make myself. A cheese and onion quesadilla is really easy to make and doesn't take that long to make either. My onions were raw and the cheese wasn't even melted. Completely raw. Straight off the cutting board. read more

For Mexican in ocean springs this pretty good. Everyone was friendly and the food came to our table quickly. Definitely would go back.

We waited 20 minutes for cheese dip and then waited over an hour for our food. We got raw food and one drink serving. Avoid the male waiter with painted white nails. I also noticed that there were other people who had been there for a while and didn't get their food. read more

My favorite Mexican restaurant on the coast! Great prices (especially for lunch!), friendly service, and tasty food. The food is always consistent here. Today I got the cheesy chicken (but with steak), which is basically fajita meat covered in their delicious (must-get) cheese dip. My sister got the quesadilla (her favorite) with rice and beans. Overall delicious and happy to come anytime I'm home! I'd also recommend the fajitas, the chile relleno, and burrito (I prefer it without beef). Lots of combination plates have these with other delicious foods. I wouldn't call this "authentic", but for American Mexican food, it wins. read more

I have enjoyed the food there every time I went. I especially like the beef tacos. I would recommend eating there to anybody.

Horrific experience each time. Tonight it was the burnt chips, weird flavor cheese and horrible fajitas. Not clean at all. Waitress placed food down and her hair went into drinks and half of the plate. Take a peek in their kitchen as you're getting seated, you'll walk out. People go bc it's the only option. If you are thinking of stopping here - please save yourself the money. The food is not good, service is awful, it's not cleanly and you'll leave feeling uneasy. Tonight was my fifth time trying it - each time it gets worse and I can't anymore. I'm typing this as I ache from what feels like food poison. The shrimp wasn't cooked well, cheese tasted like chemicals and their steak didn't taste good at all. The waitress dropped off our items and never once checked back on us. We went to counter to pay without ticket and advised them of our service. This place has always been the only one in town, so they don't care. If you want Mexican, they're it. The best bet you have is to drive on to Biloxi. read more

Went here with some family who also enjoyed this place. The chips and salsa were good. None of that watered down salsa here. The tacos were very good. Nice clean restaurant. Definitely will be going back. read more

Do not waste your time here. Worst food I have ever had. Staff is inattentive. Restaurant is dirty. Bathroom was not accessible due to one person locked in there sick. read more

While waiting for our server to take our order, we heard the sound of a bird squawking somewhere in the restaurant. A few minutes later, we heard it again. As 2 people in our party work in the service industry, we made the decision not to eat here (because birds are filthy). We went to pay for our drinks and told the employees why we were leaving. They stated that an employee in the back was making the sound. As we walked out of the restaurant, one of the employees called one of us a nasty name in Spanish (one of us is fluent "en español"). They not only lost our business that day, but we will never go back. Aztecas was wonderful! read more

I was in Ocean Springs and wound up here for lunch. I ordered an enchilada & taco plate, my bf ordered crispy chicken tacos, and we got the cheese dip. The salsa and chips were yummy. This is pretty standard for a Mexican restaurant though. Cheese dip was also pretty good. It was different than what I imagined cheese dip to be. Pleasantly surprising. Now the rest of the food was nothing special. I live in Sacramento and perhaps I'm spoiled because damn good Mexican food is on practically every corner. The beans and rice was not good, the enchilada was ok, and same with the tacos. The prices were very reasonable. Drinks, entrees, and 2 appetizers for 6 people ran us about $65. Perhaps you get what you pay for though. Anyone who enjoys the Mexican food here needs to take a trip to Cali to see what AMAZING Mexican tastes like!! read more

We didn't have to wait long for our food. The food I think was great!!!! The service could have been better but over all I would go back and definitely recommend a good place to get Mexican food in town because there are not many options .. read more

My dining experience was entertaining. The guitarist was singing a little off key that night. My chimichanga was a little burnt, but it was okay. The cheese dip is excellent, especially paired with the salsa. We ordered fried ice cream and the fried part was soggy... so we ate the ice cream inside. I ordered take out once, and they forgot to give me my order of cheese dip, but when I went back, they gave me a platter of queso and huge bag of chips to make up for the mistake. Definitely check your order before you leave - this should be a no-brainer, but I was in a rush. Oops. read more

I been here twice so far. The first time they had live music. The server was great and super fun. Food was awesome, so many choices. I was so impressed that I called and reserved 12 spots to celebrate my wedding!!! Again, people were super friendly (no live music this time ) but server was great. Love the authenticity of the Mexican food and the people are great. Will come back soon! read more

I really liked it. I ordered three different items from the lunch menu to go and they were all good. I think the chimichanga could have been fried a bit more but it was still good with a really rich creamy white sauce. One item I think #31 was really excellent. It was something asada I think. It was thinly sliced beef with onions and limes. The price for the three entres was under 30$ with tax. I will definitely go back. read more

The California Burrito is seriously my fave! It's amazing and it's HUGE you could feed 2-3 people with this thing. The margaritas are good, several flavors to choose from. Good prices. Good service. For the price, definitely 5 stars! read more

Great variety of Mexican food. Clean, inexpensive and the fastest service I have ever received in a Mexican restaurant. Food was delicious, the salsa was the perfect balance between mild and medium spicy. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! read more

Like I stated before I rarely eat Mexican food outside of New Mexico, but my cousins kids wanted to eat here so we came. First thing I noticed was that the floors were really slippery and the place especially our booth had that dingy wet odor like they used a dirty rag and water to clean the tables and floors. The menu was odd and had things on there that seemed to be made up. I ordered the carne asada tacos, and they were not too great. Living in California for some time I like to feel that I know what a asada taco should taste and look like. This one didn't taste or look anything like it. The meat was o.k. just the normal additions that go on it weren't either there or not good. To top it off they messed up several of the orders. The next day a local told me to avoid the Mexican restaurants in the area. Too late. read more

I might be spoiled by my hometown Mexican restaurant is the reason that I was not impressed by the food here. I had the shrimp chimichanga which was not very crispy although the shrimp were very large (best part of the meal). My wife had chicken fajitas that had a slight hint of BBQ sauce. The cheese dip was not bad but pricey for the small cup that you get. Service was good and the beverage glasses are a great size. Like I said before I might just be spoiled by my hometown Mexican restaurant. read more

OMG. Came for lunch and was totally impressed. Service superb to the extent that when my margarita ran out and I didn't want another, the waiter brought me a glass water without me asking for it. I ordered the Super California Burrito and my husband ordered the chimichanga meal. Both were excellent to the point that my husband said it was the best chimichanga ever; and he should know because that's all he ever orders. GREAT FOOD, GREAT SERVICE! read more

We went in again for 2nd time in a month and there is workers on their phones while others are working. I think their phones need to be place somewhere while they work and stay off their phones. Either the manager does not care that is rude or does not know this is going in inside the place. I find this really rude when you having a night out and you have to listen to their workers talking on phone and laughing out loud. read more

Our drinks arrived with lipstick stains on the rim and my brother followed the waiter(secretively) to the bar to see if he was going to make a new one. He just poured the old drink into a new glass!!! I was so sick from this could barely eat my food!! I would not recommend this place to anyone!! read more

This is THE premiere place in Ocean Springs for Mexican food in a pleasant and authentic atmosphere. The staff is friendly and service is very prompt, and the food is delicious. I'm a local who has been eating here for years! read more

The food was pretty good and service was adequate. But the female waitress was more worried about talking the the 3 Mexican guys in a booth down from us than tending to her tables. Told us 15 minutes to get her to take our money, had to go hand it to her so she would get the hint. read more

The food here is really good. The only thing I've had that wasn't that great were the sopapillas, but everyone cooks them a little differently and I just don't like their version. And they have 2 for 1 margaritas! read more

The vegetarian fajitas are ranked as some of the best I have had. The salsa was delicious!

Boring, fast-food style Mexican. Literally beside Subway and Taco Bell in a strip mall. My food was microwaved - and not long enough, as it was cold in spots. Just gross. Add to this the fact that the waitstaff and host didn't seem to want to be there. Guess the feeling's mutual. Adios. read more
