Walk up, door is wide open, only outdoor table with shade is occupied by one guy on his phone. Walk in, say hello and the cook comes out. He turns on the air, but it's not AC. Fortunately, it's not that hot. We order two taco plates which come with four street tacos, beans and rice. The menu board has no prices. We each grab a softdrink from the cooler. Food comes out and dig in the chicken and steak tacos both have good flavor, beans and rice are okay. We finish and ask for the total and he tells me $28 which for what we got seemed high. It was four street tacos so it's basically two regular tacos. I double check and he confirms it's $28. I feel like we got hit with a gringo tax. YMMV.

The menu was very easy to read and even though they don't have a lot of options I liked that they are able to focus on the things they do offer. Everything was so good.

Everyone was so kind and loved interacting with our waitress.

The nachos had yellow cheese at the bottom and then the birria meat and white cheese all over with some sliced pickled jalapeños.

With their recent expansion, the experience is even better. There's plenty more room for everyone to enjoy their delicious tacos without feeling crowded. As someone originally from Los Angeles, I can honestly say these are the closest tacos I've found to authentic LA-style tacos. It's been difficult to find that same flavor here in El Paso, but this place absolutely delivers. The salsa bar is another highlight and never disappoints. Everything is fresh, flavorful, and pairs perfectly with the tacos. Don't be surprised if it's busy when you visit, that's usually a great sign. The crowds are there for a reason: the food is consistently delicious and well worth the wait.

The second time I went was for breakfast. I do not recommend it at all. I got the bacon and eggs and pancake special. The eggs were okay. The pancakes were too dry. The bacon was chopped into tiny, dried out pieces (not sure why). There was loud music (way too early) and they make liquados in a blender too close to the eating area so that was annoyingly loud too. Too many employees with some just hanging out talking. Just not a good dining experience but all easily fixed with right mgmt but what do I know :)

A good example is their Taco. The beef and potato is good, but may not be like other Tacos that you may have had. I had the Mexican plate. The Taco, Enchilada and Chile were very good. There are only a hand full of restaurants in the area that I like and El Crucero isn't bad. The restaurant is nice and clean and they have large menu. The only frustration is that their employees are predominately Spanish speaking only. Our waitress was very attentive and friendly but barely spoke a word of English. At times I have called in for takeout and the person answering the phone couldn't speak English and would just hang up on me. Still, I enjoy El Crucero and recommend giving them a try!

From the moment we were seated, they were warm, welcoming, attentive, and incredibly personable. They struck the perfect balance of being available whenever we needed something without ever making us feel rushed. They were knowledgeable, professional, and genuinely seemed to care about making sure we had a great experience. Jorge and Alissa went above and beyond to make us feel taken care of. Their positive attitudes, attention to detail, and friendly personalities really stood out. It's not often that you come across servers who make you feel like they truly enjoy what they do, but that was definitely the case with both of them. They made our meal feel less like simply going out to eat and more like a genuinely enjoyable experience. The food was wonderful, but outstanding service is what makes you want to come back and Jorge and Alissa absolutely delivered. They are both a tremendous asset to West Elm, and I hope their hard work and hospitality are recognized because they deserve it! We left with big smiles and a great impression of the restaurant; additionally, the busing personnel are always accommadating and willing to speak with us as well. We will definitely be coming back, and we would be thrilled to have Jorge and Alissa take care of us again. Thank you both for making our visit so memorable!

The restaurant offers a cozy contemporary feel with a minimalist modern touch. The white oak and high ceiling also contributes to a warm and relaxing atmosphere. Right from the start, I loved the presentation of the Pepino--refreshing, creative, and unlike anything I've seen elsewhere. The Aguachile Callo de Hacha was outstanding, easily one of the highlights of the evening. If you're visiting for the first time, I highly recommend ordering the following tacos - Campesino ($7) and the Pato al Pastor ($8); both are packed with original flavors and showcase the chef's creativity. Their Jamaica drink is also excellent and pairs beautifully with the food. Chef Emiliano Marentes has deservedly earned national recognition and James Beard acclaim, which naturally creates high expectations before you even walk through the door. So that is always creating an issue as many of us expect perfection. The restaurant was moderately busy, with some people waiting to be seated. The biggest disappointment, however, was the pace. We waited approximately 25 minutes for our food despite the restaurant not appearing especially full. Then came the most unexpected wait of the evening--the restroom. Standing in line for more than 15 minutes just to use the bathroom is something I've never experienced at a restaurant. That took away from what had started as a very enjoyable evening. Service was efficient without any fluff. Overall this is a solid 4.0/5.0.
