First time here. Spoke with the owner who recently did additional renovations to the restaurant. Ordered their Chile Rellenos for lunch. Tasty and good sized portion with a reasonable price. Interior decor is very rustic with a horse theme throughout. They even have life-size horse statue in front. Great for families. Very casual with an extensive open bar area. Free parking in front. Very good Mexican cuisine. Give them a try. You won't be disappointed.

This is an excellent venue for both dining and watching sports. The service stands out, as the staff eagerly customizes kids' meals to meet any requests.

The interior decor and horse prop outside gave me the impression of a potentially great dining experience. My wife and I were promptly served and seated. My expectation was to enjoy Mexican food. Nothing could have been further. First, there no chile in the chile. How can you have Mexican food with no chile? Fail. I order the super burrito. It was far from super. The shredded beef tasted like it was boiled in water. No flavor whatsoever. The beens taisted like they came out of a can. No flavor again. Fail. The rice was comical. No spices used whatsoever. I may as well have ordered white rice with no salt. Awful. The music was a fail. Too loud. Who plays country music in a Mexican restaurant? FAIL. The service however was outstanding. Too bad the rest was a complete disappointment.

My husband and I just finished having dinner at El Rodeo. This was our first time and we had high hopes for a great dinner based on the reviews and the restaurant was busy.
My biggest gripe was the flavor of the food. I ordered a grilled chicken burrito. Super simple. What can go wrong? It was the blandest chicken burrito I’ve ever had. The beans and the rice in the burrito had no flavor. None. There was no cilantro either. And they put the guacamole and the sour cream on the side.
I asked for some chile to spice up my burrito and they brought me a red enchilada sauce that tasted like it came out of a can. I was SO disappointed. No, I can not call this authentic Mexican food. Authentic Mexican food has depth in flavor. It doesn’t have to be spicy but it does have to have sabor.
Now I said the restaurant was busy and I believe they are successful because they cater to a demographic that prefers a blander diet. So if that’s you then this restaurant is for you. If you prefer Mexican food with a little more sabor then go somewhere else.
That being said, they have great service and the place is clean.

This place is amazing, yea theirs a few minor complaints i have for example the chips. I wish they had a different type personally and/or house made the chips. Ive ordered a wet burrito, to fajitas from here and all around can say one of my favorite Mexican restaurants in the area. The food especially the fajitas is priced super competitive might even be lower than most places even for the 3 meat combo plate. But the price doesn't affect the quality. The rice is awesome not dry, or bland got that perfect tomatoey type of flavor. The beans, im not even a bean fan but im able to eat these , especially with the chips

Everything I've tried has been amazing and always enough to fill you up twice! The spicy garlic shrimp quesadilla is stuffed fatter than a sandwich and uses a tortilla I didn't even know they made that big.
This is a cute and fun place. The decor was fantastic. The food was OK. The tacos were a little greasy but the burrito was great. The staff are hit and miss though. They come out quickly with chips and salsa but then you wait a while for them to come take your drink order. They do not come around to refill the water. There are two young high school aged teen young men that are great though! They come around, ask you how things are, clean up the table and were just really pleasant. The young ladies there, though, not so much. They would stand in a corner and talk or check their phones all the while, you are waiting for them to come over to take your order or bring you some more water. Getting the check is another story. They do not tell you if you are to pay at the front or if they will take your payment. They just drop it at the table and leave.

The food is great it’s a fun atmosphere and the service is excellent at this family run restaurant. Side note: the chicken & rice soup has been helping cure our families colds for years you can pick it up by the quart it’s delicious

This is by far the Best Authentic Mexican food in Fremont and is much like las casitas, which a lot of this staff is from there . I moved from Fremont 2 years ago and stop by here often on my way home from work .. service is always great. Tonight was excellent. There has been a few times where it has not been as good but it ok . Great job guys 😊
