I rarely write reviews but this place has phenomenal food! So fresh. Highly recommend the shrimp tacos and guacamole. I love that the tacos did not come packaged in plastic. We ordered from Door Dash. Highly recommend!

While visiting Connecticut, I suddenly had a craving for Mexican food, only to realize there aren’t many authentic options in the area. After doing some research, I came across El Gallo De Oro in Monroe, and I’m so glad I did! The food was authentic and absolutely delicious. The service was fast, and the staff was incredibly friendly. I’m thrilled I found this hidden gem!

Very good food but they purposely do not turn on the hood fan at its highest or it is broken. It stinks like grease rather heavily. The contamination in the air was so high that my eyes became waterly and we so badly stunk like food when we got home that we all had to shower. They must work on that as that is a serious health department violation.
