Service was great and the food was delicious. I ordered the steak picata that was perfect and my man got the #6 and he was so delighted with it. The root beer float he shared with me and we both agreed it was so tasty!

Tasty carnitas, shredded beef tacos, cheese enchiladas, and guacamole. Awesome margaritas. Go early, as this place fills up at peak meal times. Parking is kind of a headache, so be patient. Thanks El Matador!

very good food, reasonable prices. On this occasion I did take away, so I cannot speak to the environment. The food was top-notch traditional Southern California, Mexican food like what I grew up with. good stuff.

I stopped in for lunch. Best Mexican food I've had in a long time!! Authentic, delicious, amazing staff. I'm from the east coast, can't wait to eat here again when I visit. Stopped back for dinner (because i enjoyed it so much) before I went back east. Had 2 shredded beef Tacos. Another awesome meal. Wonderful experience. ?

Our food was just flat out not good. Very bland flavors and you can tell the food is not authentic. If you are looking for true, authentic Mexican flavors, this is not the place!

Authentic delicious food and fast service. Older decor.
Soooooo good!!! We came from out of town on a family vacation. When looking for somewhere to have dinner, this place kept calling to me... We were not disappointed. The food was so good, the house Margareta was delicious, and our server, Marvin, was on point! Always checking on us every time he walked by. We will definitely eat here again next time we are here.Kid-friendliness: The kids loved the food too!

Our food was good. Salsa is very hot. It's quite loud in this restaurant, to the point it makes conversing at your own table difficult.

The food, margaritas, and service are always great! It is our favorite Mexican restaurant in the Newport Beach/Costa Mesa area!
