You pay your tab at the register in the front of the diner. When I was asked if I wanted to add a tip to the card amount I said "yes please add 15%." The lady at the register told me that she could "only put in whole numbers" for the tip amount so I had to tip 20% or 10%. Really? No, seriously,...really?? Sigh. Can't help but think integrity is an issue.

Our son has celiac disease, and Nick was incredibly knowledgeable and proactive, personally making sure everything was clearly communicated with the chefs so we felt completely comfortable and confident. The atmosphere was very relaxed yet attentive we never had to ask for a thing because Nick was always one step ahead and made sure we had everything we needed. On top of that, he took the time to recommend things to do while we're visiting, which was such a thoughtful touch. We don't live in town, but the downtown area is absolutely amazing, and after this experience, we can't wait to explore it more tomorrow in the daylight. And the food, hands down five stars across the board. We will absolutely be back when passing through, and if you're dining here, ask for Nick!

I just want to give a huge thank you to the staff at El Nopal. After coming from a graduation…read moreparty, I walked in at 9:00 PM and asked for a table for 15. They close at 10:00 PM, and our group didn't even arrive until 10:15 PM due to traffic. Did they turn us away? Not at all. The staff welcomed us with patience and kindness, and the service was just as amazing as the food. Speaking of which--everything was delicious, shockingly affordable, and the portions were massive. Their menu is huge--I don't think a single Mexican dish was missing, and they even offer a la carte items. Even with such a large, late order, there were only two small mistakes, which is impressive. I wouldn't fault them at all. We didn't leave until almost 11:30, and even then, the staff was still smiling, saying thank you, come again, and just radiating hospitality. You could tell they truly care about their work and the restaurant. And let me mention how clean the place was--like, oddly clean. I saw a staff member cleaning each individual blind and then moving on to the windows. I've never seen that kind of detailed cleaning at closing time in any restaurant. Bonus: the artwork inside is vibrant and beautiful, adding even more charm to the experience. This was five-star service from start to finish. I'll absolutely be back.
