El Tenampa Mexican Grill & Cantina is a restaurant that 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. The restaurant features a friendly and authentic vibe, with attentive staff who quickly seat guests and offer fresh guacamole made in front of diners. The guacamole 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. 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, often enough for two drinks. Prices are considered a bit on the higher side, but the overall experience and friendly staff make it worth considering for a Mexican dining experience. Parking may sometimes require a wait during busy hours. Despite some minor drawbacks, the positive reviews suggest that El Tenampa is a good choice for enjoying authentic Mexican food.
