This place was delicious! New spot in Middleton tucked away. We dined in and it was quick. The restaurant is clean and relaxed. The server was attentive. We got tacos, burritos and quesadillas. read more

Used to be good . Emphasis on used to be . This place is so sickening I paid and got out of there before I blew up and went off on all those people. That food had no flavor disgustingly greasy chicken was dry and tough the chili relleno was the worst thing I've ever tasted and I love good chile relleno. The cheese tasted old and sour . The beans and rice were dry with no flavor . I asked for a scoop of pico de gallo to go in the runny salsa that didn't have any flavor much and they charged me $5.95 for a scoop I will never and I suggest no one else ever does either go back there you want to go one you might want to try the one in Eagle cuz the one in Middleton disgusting. It wasn't even worth a picture read more

The birria tacos here are my favorite! Great little spot to come for excellent food. Quick service, good price, quality food. One of the best places to eat in Middleton. read more

We eat here about once a week. It is very popular with the Hispanic workers in the area so it must be authentic. Pretty extensive menu of grilled chicken, beef, pork and shrimp. I see lots of fajitas come out of the kitchen. Family owned and operated. read more

We've been regulars here for many years. They are consistently delicious! They grill whole chicken and have family style meals. (Like el pollo loco) Their nachos, enchiladas, and birria tacos are amazing! It's a casual cafe, order at the register and they bring your food to the table. Plastic cutlery. Authentic flavor. We absolutely love this place! read more

Great takeout spot in Middleton, I just wish it was open a little bit later! Everything we've had has been authentic enough and no "aftermath" if you know what I mean. I don't wanna say too much because I like it being a hidden gem! read more

We recently moved to Middleton and my neighbors made sure to let me know that I needed to try out El Señor Pollo. We originally tried to come here for lunch on a Sunday because Google shows this place open, but they are closed on Sunday. We had an opportunity to try during the week and endured a fresh 3 inches of snow to get there...and it was worth the adventure! Order at the counter and food is brought to your table. I ordered the three street taco plate with your choice of any combination of chicken, carne asada, carnitas, chorizo or al pastor. It also comes with a nice portion of rice and fresh homemade refried beans. I ordered the chicken, chorizo and carnitas. The beans were a 10/10...you can taste the homemade smoothness and lightly seasoned slow-cooked beans. Utter perfection. Rice was also lightly flavored but not my favorite...best to mix with beans. The chicken taco was packed with chicken, onions and cilantro. I added some of their hot sauce (which was medium at best, but very flavorful), but the chicken was on the drier side and not seasoned (3/5). Carnitas were the same, though I appreciated the crispy edges like true carnitas (3/5). The star of the show were the chorizo tacos...wow, I couldn't stop saying, "these are fire!" with each bite. It was the perfect bite of tender chorizo, oozing with the juicy flavoring (5/5). Nice touch with the dollop of guacamole with one chip in the middle....but would love if I had ordered more of that. Must remember for next time! Husband had the pollo #1 combo with two pieces of chicken, tortillas, beans and rice. He had the same feelings I had about the rice and beans. Unfortunately, his chicken was also on the drier side. He overall liked his meal and ate every bite. He super appreciated the warm corn tortillas served with the plate. Had to deduct a star for the drier-than-it-should-be chicken, but the beans, chorizo, friendly service and chill atmosphere make this a solid 4 stars! A "must visit" place! read more

So good! Food is hot and fresh and staff is friendly. Enchiladas and tacos were excellent.

Not great. The carne asada they serve on their different plates is completely bland. No seasoning or marinade evident at all. I don't know legit Mexican places that put cheese sauce on their nachos. That's like a thing when you go to the local high school football game. El Rancho is better by far. read more

For the typical uninitiated to what TRUE cuisine from Mexico is, this place will seem excellent. While the taco fillings were not authentic examples of Chorizo, Pollo Asado and al Pastor, the freshness and flavor were good. Disappointing, but good quality food. The salad was very large, not much chicken and could have been a lot better with a cilantro dressing. Ranch dressing just doesn't do it. Again, food that the "locals" would like - gringo. Be ready for black beans in the salad. The flour tortilla at the bottom of the salad was for WHAT? By the time you find it under everything, it is a waterlooged thing of no use. There is no yellow cheese in Mexico, but there is yellow cheese here. Large menu. Stick with the Fire Roasted Chicken - skip everything else. read more

Best Mexican restaurant around I've been here four years and finally found good Mexican food. Like most good Mexican restaurants it's small little hole in the wall. I highly recommend, and you can thank me when I run into you there. I'm just elated read more

If you want to OVERPAY and get the smallest amount of food as possible, go here. Its good food, not the issues. But a $13 burrito and there is barely any meat, cone on. You can go to Robertos, or any drive through Mexican and get a massive carne asada burrito for $7. When you over charge and get greedy on ingredients, people remember that. read more

We absolutely love their chicken! We order from them or at least we'd like to eat there at least two times a week. We stopped because it does get pricey. I always ask for extra jalapeños! You can not eat it with them, they're so good! We had preordered for my sons birthday party and they went so fast that my father in law had to order another tray so we can eat after the party. They're super juicy! The photo I posted is their chicken with their jalapeño and grilled onions. The sides of rice and macaroni are not included lol I made those but they do have rice and beans! read more

Big burrito. It stateside the craving and was good. I would say it didn't taste like most Mexican restaurants. A little less traditional than your norm. It was decent enough though and had some flavor to it. read more

Was craving nachos, saw a review/photo for steak fajita nachos (*disclaimer*photo was a year ago) they looked awesome, so ordered steak and chicken fajita nachos online. Well my photo looks nothing like the other patron's and we couldn't really tell which was the chicken or the steak until we uncovered what little meat there was Unfortunately disappointed. Online order was fast, it was being boxed up as we walked in and the order was 100% complete. read more

Less meat in their burritos, now. Mostly rice & beans. Price is way to high, now, for what you get. Stopped going there this past year. read more

Super flavorful! Great customer service and best bang for your buck. Worth the drive to Middleton.

Ordered takeout lunch on a Tuesday and it was fantastic. Had the whole chicken with tortillas and two sides. It was excellent and the best Asado chicken since I last visited old town Cabo. The food was fresh, hot and very tasty. The place was clean and the counter staff were very friendly and ready to help. For sides we had charro beans and Mexican rice. The tortillas were homemade and hot, wrapped in foil. This is a great option for fast food in Middleton. Don't miss out and avoid some of the other grease pits. Cheers! read more

If you're looking for authentic Mexican in a casual environment, this is it. Better than the fast food Mexican places around, and faster/cheaper than going to one of the bigger restaurants. Options in Middleton are limited, and this place is one of our favorites. They serve breakfast burritos all day, huge plus! read more

Delicious food and great service. We love their street tacos plate, burritos and chicken!

Taco Tuesday offers $1.00 off taco plate. My husband got that, 3 chicken street tacos, double side of charro beans. He liked the beans, a little bit of heat with no chunks of jalapeño. Said the chicken tacos were good. Pleasant environment & clean restroom. $ 12.19 for taco plate & fountain drink read more

This place used to be great. I would come out of my way to eat here. Last time I came the lady in the front seemed very rude and unfriendly. The previous young girl was always so nice and friendly with a smile. This time I went again and ordered a whole chicken, and then went back and asked for some limes. They wanted to charge me $1.50 for a half of a lime cut in 3 pieces. I don't think so El Senor. Your $20 chicken should be enough to pay for my half lime. Wish I could get my tip back from them. Will never eat here again. They lost a customer over a stupid lime. Places like this are just not worth it! read more

It's just "ok". The food is pretty basic. My Husband had their asada burrito and it was just simple, not a ton of flavor. Satisfying but forgettable. I had the salad with carnitas. The carnitas was cooked well, juicy and tender. But same thing, lacking in flavor just basic. Also they have no dressing for their salads, which was disappointing and we didn't figure that out until we were half way home. So we had to turn around, ask for dressing, only to find out they serve dressing with their salads (weird). So I ordered a side of guacamole and mixed it with about 3 of their green salsas to make a dressing. All in all. It was ok, we went to bed with full bellies but I won't crave it again. read more

Authentic Mexican food! I highly recommend the carne asada burrito. It's big enough for two meals.

Delicious! Always hot, and good quality. We like the carnitas burrito, bean and cheese burrito, chicken tacos, and pico de gallo best. Only way they could be better would be to be open Sunday! read more

Great little gem tucked away in a small shopping center in Middleton. Had the hardest time finding good Mexican food until I stumble upon this place. Tacos, burritos, half chicken with sides all amazing. read more

One thing we've had a hard time finding in Idaho is good, every-day Mexican food. When I saw the reviews for this place and realized they were just a few miles away from our house, we had to try it. It's a small, order at the counter type establishment. The gal taking our order was very friendly and brought everything out to our table when it was ready. For that in between fast food and more formal restaurant, this place was great. Tasty food, decent portions (not huge but still plenty), and a good price. The chicken had great flavor and was juicy but not greasy, and the fajitas we pretty good too. The only "negative" was that the fajitas could've had just a touch more meat, but they were still good enough that I would order them again. A lot of places we've tried in the treasure valley seem to have every menu item deep fried - so I was thrilled that nothing we ordered was fried or greasy. When you want a good, quick bite and don't want to break the bank, this checks all of those boxes. We'll be returning for sure. read more

The food was absolutely delicious. Felt as close as authentic Mexican food as you can get without going to my aunte's house. Thank you doe the good atmosphere and great tasting food! read more

The food and service there is great. I always get the Alambre with chicken and shrimp. It's my favorite dish. it is a small restaurant with just a few tables and it makes you feel like you are in a private kitchen. read more

Amazing. Love this place! I love the quesadilla and all of their food really. WARNING: Some spicy foods. Please ask when ordering about the heat. read more

I haven't had anything other then the chicken. Knock on wood, everytime I go the food is pretty good I haven't gone I. Some time. Like any place else it gets a bit expensive to eat out. I should go more often and try to get them to make jungle style chicken. read more

Thought we would try out this place for the first time. Right away we knew this place was going to suck based on the terrible service by the lady at the register. Rude to us, not answering our questions about food, and just staring at us like she didn't give a crap. Should have left but decided to give it a try based on other reviews we read. Chips and salsa were not good (and not included like most other Mexican restaurants) and the salsa tasted like mostly tomato sauce, and the food was bland at best. Didn't put cheese on the tacos even though I paid extra for it, and no extra tortillas for the fajitas (extra $$$). Terrible. The place next door has better food and much better service. read more

Even though we ordered take out the place was really clean! They are taking covid precautions seriously and wearing masks and they have hand sanitizer available. The Girl at the counter was very thorough with our order and made sure everything was there. Food was great! We had the nachos and steak enchiladas. The green salsa is amazing! Definitely will be back. read more
