Took my kids to lunch at El Faro the other day, and it is still outstanding. We got a pastor burrito, and a steak burrito. Food came out hot and fast despite restaurant being really busy with a bunch of take out orders as it was lunch time. The burritos were huge. More than enough for myself and two teenagers. The flavor of both was amazing, but for me, the pastor was the best. I highly recommend if you are in the area and looking for great Mexican food.

This casual Mexican restaurant, El Faro's, has such delicious food. My favorites are the steak burritos and tortas de milanesa. The staff is friendly and the service is very prompt. I highly recommend El Faro's.

Very good food and very good prices. Been going here over 20 years and they still are authentic and worth it. I just don't like that some barely speak English so things have been done incorrectly on my orders. Otherwise it's very good food!
