El Tenampa Mexican Grill & Cantina offers delicious Mexican food, with some reviewers praising it as some of the best they've had. The service and atmosphere have also been positively noted, with a genuine, friendly, and welcoming vibe. Guests are seated quickly, and a cute little old lady makes fresh tortillas in the front dining area. The restaurant features a friendly and authentic vibe, with attentive staff. Fresh guacamole is made in front of diners, and it is large and flavorful, with some customers enjoying it without cilantro and adding lime for extra taste. The chips and salsa are also well-liked and fresh and crisp. Popular dishes include the Siete Mares with lots of shrimp, and the beef enchiladas, which receive good reviews. The beans and rice are decent, with one reviewer noting that the rice is cooked with onion, giving it a slightly different flavor. The Mucho Macho Burrito is huge and filling, perfect for those with big appetites. The Chili Rellano stuffed with seafood is crispy with thick egg breading, though some find the seafood version may be a little overcooked. The restaurant offers margaritas, including a "skinny" margarita, and on tap beverages that are generously portioned. The inside is gorgeous, and there is indoor & outdoor seating in season. Prices are considered a bit on the higher side, and there are slightly higher prices for credit cards over cash, and they charge for to-go packaging. Eddie is always a gracious host and always eager to greet and feed guests. Despite some minor drawbacks, the positive reviews suggest that El Tenampa is a good choice for enjoying authentic Mexican food.
