El Cortez Mexican Restaurant offers good food at average prices, and the chips and salsa are highlights of the menu. The salsa on the tortilla chips is highly praised, and the house margarita is a popular choice to complement the meal. The restaurant serves a variety of dishes, including chicken enchilada suiza, fresh guacamole, and tacos. The chicken enchiladas are known for their fresh, juicy chicken, while the chile rellenos have been described as the absolute best. The mini burritos and Samberos tacos are also highly recommended, especially for catering, where they are a big hit.
Customers appreciate the friendly staff and attentive service, often feeling like the staff are family. Dining on the patio with food and margaritas is considered a great experience. While beer prices can be a bit high, the overall atmosphere remains enjoyable, despite occasional minor issues like water leaks. The restaurant’s reputation is built on tasty food, friendly service, and a welcoming environment, making it a must-try for anyone who enjoys bold flavors and authentic Mexican cuisine.
