The food was great and delicious. You could order shareable portions if you're there with friends. The happy hour menu has great prices. The staff was very courteous, professional, friendly and helpful.

Places like this remind you why people go out to eat. $3 tacos, $6 margaritas, no bullshit — just flavor, noise, and life.
I had the fish, the gringo, and the chorizo. The fish was clean and crisp, the gringo greasy in all the right ways, and the chorizo — smoky, spicy, unapologetic.
The crowd’s alive, the service fast, and the food hits the table before your drink sweats. This isn’t fine dining — it’s real dining. A Fort Lauderdale staple where the tacos taste like joy and the margaritas make you forget tomorrow.

I visited El Camino and absolutely loved it! The atmosphere is vibrant, with modern décor and an authentic Mexican touch. The food was delicious, full of flavor, and beautifully presented — the tacos and margaritas were my favorites. The service was fast and friendly, and the music added a great vibe to the place. It’s the perfect spot to enjoy with friends or as a couple. Definitely a must-visit! 🌮🍹🇲🇽

It was a great dinner experience. The server was very informed on the ingredients for each meal option and worked around dietary restrictions.

Not bad, the crispy fish taco was my favorite although it had a bit too much lime. the carnitas and the barbacoa were OK. The service was amazing. Espy was really nice. The tres leches was AMAZING. ✨ I would definitely come here again.

Awesome vibe and great service! Went for the brisket nachos. All I can say is wow, a full meal on its own. 😋
Can’t wait to go back and try other options on the menu!

Our group of 16 had a great time with great service, ambience and food. You must experience their Happy Hour!
Day 5 Happy Hour at El Camino location in Boca Raton, FL was incredible. The place was buzzing, but the atmosphere was fantastic. We snagged a table pretty quickly despite the crowd. Our server, John, was top-notch. We started with a $6 margarita & a michelada, & the tamarind straw was a game-changer. The food was phenomenal - chips with salsa, pork tamale, chicharrones, & more. We were stuffed, but the flavors were perfection. What a steal!
Made a reservation for 11 people. Was called by restaurant to confirm that day and we changed to 12. Spoke to restaurant and everything was set. Arrived on time at 7pm and our table was given to another party and we had to wait 45 minutes for a table for our group. Managers were lying and actively avoiding us telling me that they were just waiting for some people to leave when it was obvious they gave our table to a walk-in. No apologies. Got some free guac for our inconvenience. Overall if management was honest instead of just asking us to stand in the middle of the restaurant for 45 minutes it would've been better. From there they provided one server for 13 people plus several other tables. Therefore drinks were very slow, food was slow, more drinks very slow. Server was good just we needed another one. It's obvious to the management there that since they are busy people will continue to show up even though service is definitely not a priority for this restaurant. Food is good. Restaurant is loud and busy. Fine for 2-4 people but as someone who regularly books large corporate dinners, would never book this restaurant again.

Everything was amazing. We had a party of 10 at 5 PM for a birthday. We got seated immediately. The service was amazing. The food was delicious as usual.! We will be back with our large party again.
We went there for 5 de mayo and was a great experience. The food was delicious! I highly recommend this place.
Great place! Food was amazing and came out super quick and fresh. Drinks were great. Definitely recommend!
Excellent food and energy! Perfectly located in the center of all shopping on Las Olas Blvd.
I booked dinner at El Camino for my sister's bachelorette weekend. We had a group of 11 and were seated comfortably and quickly with our reservation! The waitress we had was so nice and made sure we got our drinks and food in a timely manner. They even made me a great spicy marg mocktail without tequila because I am pregnant, which made my night! All the girls loved the food and the reasonable price to match. I highly recommend!
