Side salad! So full.
Pat G.

First time in this town and used Yelp to find a place for lunch. First of all, the service was very friendly. We arrived after enter breakfast cut off but since it was our first time, he was going to accommodate. We ended up with a pizza and quesadillas. And a side salad. The salad was full and fresh and I must say, the supreme pizza was one of the best pizzas I've had in a long time! Great find, Yelpers!

Biscuits and gravy with a side of grits

Do you love finding off the map places to eat? Well this is one. It's building is connected to a gas station (yes, that's when you know it's reallllll good). However, the inside is charming! Country little counter with cute decorations. Place was very clean! To order you walk up to the counter and then it's delivered. I ordered the biscuits and gravy and a side of cheese grits. The biscuits were amazing. Like amazing! Listen no matter what you order a biscuit with gravy belongs on the side. They lost a star though because the grits were horrible! Thick, chunky, and flavorless. I was severely disappointed as the rest of the food was amazing. Everyone else walking in seemed to get the breakfast sandwiches. Hence next time I go back with be for a sandwich with a biscuit on the side. The servers are the sweetest people! Kind hearted came to check on us and our food. This place is simple and happy living!

Great little gem! The breakfast was amazing and fast service. It was a beautiful Sunday so we ate outside. Definitely recommend!

Order at counter to go or they will bring to table.

What a great find! We were looking for a good Sunday breakfast brunch spot and this place exceeded expectations! They have delicious breakfast options. We ordered and would recommend: the breakfast burrito with steak, a bacon egg and cheese which my husband loved and an egg and cheese which my seven year old devoured! We also had walnut pancakes which we shared and were delicious! The coffee was really good as well. The place is very clean, I noticed they wear masks in kitchen which I appreciate and (honestly we should do that post covid in all restaurant kitchens) and the staff are so nice! Would definitely return! Love supporting local well run businesses keep up the good work!

Breakfast burrito: eggs, sausage, 2 cheeses, onions,peppers and hash browns (potato chunks, not shredded). Yum!!

So glad we choose to check out the Roundabout Cafe this morning for breakfast before hubby's doctor appointment! The cafe is the right hand side of the gas station with nice wooden tables for seating in booths and tables. Clearly a local favorite where regulars are called by name but first timers are made very welcome. The breakfast burrito was awesome - posted a photo. Stuffed to the max and d-licious! Sausage gravy biscuit was also great. Two thumbs up from both of us. Coming back for lunch after the appointment. And...now that we've come back for lunch, I can report that the Phillie cheesesteak and Rueben were just as good as the breakfast we had earlier. And the chocolate cheesecake we had for dessert was heaven. Long trip back home (4 hours) but nice to know where a good local place to eat is when we come back again in the spring.

Pancakes, Veggie Breakfast Burrito, and Chicken Tender Basket

See all

El Sombrero Mexican Restaurant

El Sombrero Mexican Restaurant

Jake English Dr. Greene…read moreComposition I July 6, 2015 El Sombrero If you're ever in Statesboro, and are looking for a great dining experience, then I would recommend "El Sombrero", not only for their delicious variety of Mexican food, but also for their great hospitality. Everything about my evening at the restaurant persuaded me to go back in the future. This two-story restaurant serves a variety of customers from a peaceful family, to a crowd of rowdy college students. There are several establishments that offer cuisine, but three of my friends referred me to El Sombrero, so I took their recommendation. They gave me great advice. Whenever I go out to eat, usually with my family, nine times out of ten I'm going to go to a Mexican restaurant. The endless supply of chips and salsa, and the gigantic amount of alcohol they give you in just one margarita are some of the reasons why El Sombrero attracts money-saving college students. Also, the two-storied design allows college students to go upstairs and eat and drink and keeps them separated from families who may be disturbed by loud college kids. When I asked the manager where the college students usually sit he said that the restaurant was arranged with an upstairs bar and one on the bottom because they wanted to attract college kids, yet they also wanted to serve in the community. Statesboro offers three locations to eat at so it shouldn't be too hard to find. Another reason to patronize the restaurant is that it is walking distance. Following the suggestions of my friends, I asked for a seat upstairs. As soon as I was seated my waiter brought out the free freshly made chips and salsa, as expected, and then asked what I wanted to drink. Being a teenager I ordered a Coke and asked for a bowl of jalapeño queso. Thinking about texture of the gigantic sized, salted chips mixed with the delicious jalapeños queso makes my mouth water now. I was not disappointed with the dip, it was hot and the perfect consistency. As I examined my surroundings I realized that in every corner of the room there was a flat screen T.V. awaiting my attention. The service was great. When I was almost done with my first coke, the waiter came up and asked me if I wanted a refill. The hospitality of the waiter is a major reason why I would recommend this joint to anyone looking for a nice dinner. When the waiter asked me for my main course, I ordered the steak fajitas with red and green peppers, onions, rice, guacamole, lettuce, tomatoes, sour cream, pico de gallo and flour tortillas. It didn't take very long for my food to arrive, and the visual display of the steamy fajitas coming out only added to the excellent tasting dish it was. The quality of meat was outstanding; it was fresh and perfectly seasoned. My waiter said that a common dish that people get when eating at El Sombrero is the Burrito California. This dish is served with either steak or grilled chicken, onions, black beans, white and yellow cheese and El Sombrero's green tomatillo salsa. Other popular dishes served included are the fajita quesadilla and the enchiladas super rancheras. I was on a dinner date with Tori and ordered the fajita quesadilla with grilled chicken. She loved it, as did I. Everything physically about El Sombrero screamed out its Mexican ambiance and it was appealing to me. For example, the visual display of red clay tiles on the roof, the traditional tan coloring on the walls, Hispanic music playing throughout the restaurant, all the things that you would expect at a Mexican restaurant were present. Whether you want take out, catering or just to dine-in, El Sombrero offers it all. The only issue that I experienced was that, like all other popular restaurants with good food and service, El Sombrero gets pretty crowded on certain days during peek hours. With the idea of crowdedness, the factor that comes into to play as well is parking. When I asked my server when it typically gets crowded, he told me the weekends are without a doubt the busiest business hours. Not knowing that prior to when I ate there on Saturday, it was my luck that it wasn't too crowded. Looking at the reviews on Yelp for El Sombrero, if you want to have a nice, inexpensive peaceful lunch or dinner there are three locations in the Statesboro area, go to the El Sombrero in the old Publix shopping center behind Hardees. If you are a college student and want to be surrounded by people your age, and don't want the hassle of parking, go to the one on Fair Road. It is open until 11:00 P.M., which comes in handy if you are busy studying and can't eat any earlier. Food related almost all the other food critiques agree that they serve excellent Mexican food.

This is the best restaurant I've been to in Statesboro yet. Here's what my wife and I had: * Mixed Chicken and Steak Lunch Fajitas Over Rice ($11.25) - cooked with bell peppers, onions, and tomatoes, and topped with cheese dip * Lunch Combo Special No. 1 ($9.25) - one chile relleno, one taco, beans and guacamole salad * Guacamole Dip - Small ($4.65) Everything was delicious. This is your standard Americanized Mexican restaurant, complete with complimentary chips and salsa (side note: the chips here are of the thicker, harder, and crunchier variety). I would say this place does the Americanized Mexican restaurant concept well and operates like a well-oiled machine (in business since 1989). Our entrees came out fresh and tasty, but the Guacamole Dip was a bit underwhelming. It looked and tasted like it had been sitting out a while. It was discolored whereas the guac that came with the lunch combo was fresh and vibrant. Service was good. We visited on a Friday for lunch and it was nice and busy, though not absolutely packed. Lots of families. This location on Buckhead Drive is the third and newest of the three "El Som" locations in Statesboro, having opened in 2008. It's relatively nice and known as the "Palace." The original location opened on Fair Road in 1989 and the second location opened in the Publix shopping center on Northside Drive circa 1993-1994.

Walking in the staff was very unfriendly,just staring at me as I'm walking in not even a slight smile... nothing . But, that was the least to my concerns. I told the worker exactly what I wanted they were out of a variety of supplies when I arrived. When I got home I opened my chipotle bowl and started eating not only until I was halfway finished I saw a bug of some sort moving along in queso. I am appalled, I threw up immediately while my daughter captured a picture.

Since I could not contact the restaurant on the phone I drove back to the drive thru lane. The same employee as before.

I clearly stated to the manager that I just wanted my items but the employee continued to insult me with the manager standing there. After several minutes they finally handed over my items with the manager never apologizing and letting the employees berate me. This is disgraceful behavior.

We called ahead of time to make sure that they had space because having been in the restaurant business for many years it was always so frustrating when people would come with a big group and at least not call ahead to see if we have space rather than just show up and expect the 12 people on a Saturday night could all fit at one table. Well, that could have been my first clue. And for the record, this was not my first choice and seeing that there's only 1-5 star review on their page. I would've not come at all. We get there in the place is nearly empty, but we had come a little early on a Saturday and thought OK maybe they just are not that busy. Well once we are seated and get settled first of all, they didn't have enough menus for all of us. There was literally almost no one else in the restaurant and they didn't have enough menus for 12 people. Take that in for just a minute. Then we find out that they lost their liquor license. Well, I don't drink often, but I do like a good margarita when I have Mexican food so that is strike two. It's not my favorite to write negative reviews. However, my hope in doing so is that the restauranteur will actually take into account what I've said and make some changes. The restroom was clean. That's always my first eyes into the restrooms to see whether or not they might keep the kitchen clean. They did a good job although they do need to do a little maintenance to make it even better. The place smelled of cleaning products. Actually not a good thing. Because when I'm coming to your establishment to eat food, the first thing that should hit me is the wonderful aroma of that food not the fact that you had to mask some major problem with cleaning supplies. Like I said there were only about 12 menus maybe even less because not all of us had a menu to begin with. Maybe they were 14 of us. This was several weeks ago and I should've done this then. There were a couple of server assistants that were young men who did the best job that they could, but you could tell that the owner/managers did not want them doing anything other than delivering chips and salsa. We had no silverware for ages and had asked several times. We received no straws even after several couple times. We asked for more napkins several times. The food was mediocre at best. Unfortunately, I can't find one good thing to say about the food. I know that a few people ordered the flan-like dessert. The texture was absolutely off. We are not in the area very often, and I highly doubt that I would ever go back. But if I did see that reviews were pouring in and they were very good. Excellent I might give it a try thinking that the owners made some changes. It's a great location, but they are lacking in too many ways.
