The Service is great !!! Beef taco is wonderful :) Also they do an American breakfast if you desire.Everything iv had is really good !!!
I heard about this place on Nextdoor and decided to try it today (after living in Santa Cruz for about 30 years!). It was a hit! I ordered the combo of one beef taco and a cheese enchilada including rice and beans, and added a Cadillac margarita…it was a great lunch! This place hits the mark in my opinion😎
Quality Mexican food and also one of the best hamburgers in town. I have been eating here since ‘96.

El Chino Mexican Restaurant is a beloved spot, known for its good food, good service, and friendly staff. The restaurant features a wide parking lot and is wheelchair accessible. While the veggie menu options may not be clear, customers can accommodate dietary restrictions with some modifications. The restaurant has a long history of consistency, with some customers returning for over 20 years. Many enjoy the simple, homestyle meals that warm them up from the inside, especially the Enchiladas and Flautas. Guests appreciate the flavorful dishes and generous portions, like the shredded beef in the a la carte enchiladas. El Chino has maintained its reputation as a great place for Mexican food, and the welcoming atmosphere keeps customers coming back. They have been family-owned for around 40 years, and it’s a fun time with nice chips and salsa served alongside meals.
