Great food and great service! The waiters/waitresses are highly attentive and I highly recommend the Fajitas Colorado and the medium margaritas are literally the size of a small pitcher! Love it!
August 2025
The food it’s not bad. The service and attitude of the employees or owner what makes it bad. Why? Because I ordered a Caldo de res and big fat fly landed on the caldo. I told the waiter about it and his answer was “I dont control the flies” and “What do you want me to do as I can’t do anything?” The least he could do bring us another plate and still charge us for it (I did not even have a chance to taste the caldo). But he was rude so I cancelled the caldo and ate...

The food was very good, the surface was very good, the atmosphere was okay.
But I did not go there for the atmosphere.
I had the daily special, chicken de la crema burritos. I would have that again! This was my first visit to El Mezcal, and I will definitely go back.
