The worst Mexican Rest. I've ever been too. And I've been to a lot from Cali, Texas, Okla., Kansas, Fl., Ga., and more in between. The Salsa was the worse. I couldn't even get a 3rd bite of it.

Even though it's an older building they have it very festive atmosphere and super quick service overall I would recommend them to friends and family to check

Rice covered with cheese and shrimp!!! Not on menu but really really good!!
It has been a few years since I've been to El Mariachi. Myself, and my grandparents used to come here often, but had since started to going to El Monte because it is closer to my grandmother. We decided to give El Mariachi some love today since had not been in so long. Right away, the biggest change that caught my eye was the decor, they have gone with a more western style theme and have done away with the paintings that I remember... but I digress, we're here to talk about the food. First, the salsa. The first thing that caught my attention was they use fresh cilantro which gave a nice kick when you take that first bite, followed by the other spicy nuances that you want in any salsa. For my entree, I had the chicken fajitas. They came out promptly and were still sizzling. I also had the salad with refried beans, fresh guacamole, and rice. The fajitas themselves were great without any additional toppings, but blended with the guacamole, sour cream, and salsa, makes for a delectable little bite. All in all, it was a good experience. Service was prompt and attentative, and the food was good and fresh. While it may not exactly be like a fine wine in that it gets better with age, it certainly has not lost it's touch. Will definitely be coming back!

My lunch beef taco salad was really good and with water was around $9 plus tip . I've eaten there several times and I will continue to go back. The salsa is really good as well !

Worst experience ever me and my family have been eating here around 20 yrs and I took my grandmother here for her birthday I ordered the Special Dinner, my 2nd bite of my chile releno I pulled a large piece of plastic out of my mouth that is in my inside the chile. It made me so sick to my stomach I had the waitress take my food away and didn't eat. My grandmother ordered a chicken Taco salad the chicken was so tough she couldn't eat it, so she just ate around the chicken. I'm really disappointed I loved El Mariachi's until this.
