I chose El Presidente for my Taco Tuesday Lunch. I go to different spots every week and do reviews for my Instagram followers. El Presidente is one of my favorite spots I have visit. The CRAB GUACAMOLE is a must !!!
The atmosphere and service is wonderful. Overall, I had a marvelous experience

I had the carne asada tacos and they tasted great but they were really small, the Mexican street corn tasted really good and the portions were decent but it was really expensive for what you get, and this place didn’t have free chips and salsa ready for you when you are at your table which is something I am very unfamiliar with for it being a Mexican restaurant, but overall the food was good and the service was phenomenal but this place didn’t leave my stomach full and left me a bit hungry.

The food was not great. Since when is it not a staple for a Mexican restaurant to serve chips and salsa at every table? You have to pay $11 for it and you get a small amount of chips. The food is weird, not authentic. If you want a refill for your soda you have to ask. Need extra chips, ask. Have to wait for someone to come around though. The manager is creepy.
My server was just okay however he did remove the nasty “quesadilla” from my bill which made up for his inconsistent presence. I don’t know maybe I expected something different, because the place was poppin. But it was not for me.

I loved it! The food was tasty, the drinks were fantastic (espresso martinis & Cadillac margaritas), and our server Orlando was great and had so much personality!

stopped here because it was recommended by a friend and it did not disappoint. Our waiter was super nice and attentive, the ambiance was really cool & the drinks were pretty awesome! The food was good but not great (we are from Texas so I think our expectations may be high). Some food was a bit too spicy, plates do not come with sides & some chips & salsa will cost you $11 (so it’s definitely pricey). However, we thought it was worth it & they brought my sister a unique tasting ice cream foe her birthday

Very attentive and kind waiter and the food was amazing. I had the short rib enchiladas and plantains on the side and it was delectable. The atmosphere was so lively and fun as well. Wiped my skillet clean it was that good!!
