Sad to say, a friend gave me this place to try as her ‘ favorite, but honestly everything I ordered was so plain, I could have made it better myself, won’t be back
One of those places where they took care of their problem and ended up with gaining a repeat customer.
We were charged wrong when we went to their happy hour and when I tried to contact them, emails weren’t responded to by mistake as well. But chatting on the phone with them they felt bad and took care of the issue professionally . So I’ll def return for another happy hour.

We happened upon this restaurant while walking around town. Must have been our lucky day, this place is beyond outstanding. From the Street Corn to the Birria Tacos and Flautas to the Churros for dessert, every bite was authentic, jam packed with flavor and downright tasted and delicious. The ambiance is bright, cheery and inviting.

Only Mexican place I have ever been to that doesn't give free chips and salsa. Rest of the food was pretty bad. Shrimp and fish tacos were skimpy and sad. Chicken in the chicken enchiladas was very dry. Great service, bad food.

bit strict of a place… dress code? not sure for what… not like it’s a fancy place or anything. and staff was very rude about it because our friend didn’t fit the “dress code”, but clearly didn’t look like to applied to everyone. saw people dressed MUCH worse than my friends but i guess “rules are rules” 🤨

El Santo is hands down one of the best Mexican restaurants in the area. The atmosphere is vibrant and welcoming, with stylish decor and an energy that makes it perfect for a fun night out with friends or a casual date.
What truly sets El Santo apart is their margarita—it’s easily the best I’ve had. Freshly made, perfectly balanced, and available in a variety of creative flavors, it’s reason enough to visit on its own. The classic lime margarita is smooth and refreshing, but I also recommend trying their seasonal specials.
The food is just as impressive. From flavorful street tacos to rich enchiladas and perfectly cooked carne asada, every dish is bursting with bold, authentic flavors. Portions are generous, and presentation is on point.
Service was friendly and attentive throughout the meal. The staff made sure we were well taken care of without being overbearing.
If you're looking for delicious Mexican food, great drinks, and a fun atmosphere, El Santo is a must-visit. I’ll definitely be back!

You have to pay for chips and salsa … at a Mexican place ? Should have left right there. But I stayed. They charged me 4.50 for each taco and it was supposed to be 3.50. Tacos were ok at best. Happy hour only at the bar and patio but the patio isn’t very appealing so it’s a lose situation. Honestly not worth the money. Presentation of food was pretty. Still over priced and the flavor was ok at best. Tres leche tiramisu cake not good at all.
