“The atmosphere was clean and updated. Had bar top high chairs which was great! The service was welcoming and very attentive! The food was pretty good! Had cowboy steak bites- they were okay wish they had a dip on the side for an appetizer, mahi-mahi was very good but messy/greasy, the smash burger lacked some flavor and Texas toast bread was crunchy but decent, chicken/bacon/ranch sandwich was cooked well but not a lot of flavor in the chicken and kids grilled cheese the Texas toast was alot of bread for one piece of cheese. The fries were perfect amount of crunchy and soft but thought the grease they were cooked in tasted kinda fishy. Over all the food was decent enough would eat again! But the overall environment is where it was at!Gets 4/5 based on wait time which was 50 minutes on a Sunday at 11:30am and only table to be served. And overall food flavor.“
“I was finishing work and decided I wanted Mexican food before I had a meeting in Rochelle. I did a quick Google maps search and saw what appeared to be a small family business.Parking was easy and the location was easy to find. I sat down and after a recommendation from the waitress, I placed my order for a burrito with sides of rice and beans.I like it when I find a place where the flavor of the food isn't generic, but rather clearly their own recipes. El Senor is just such a place.The food was at the table in under 5 minutes, perfect temperature and fresh and was clearly prepared for me after I ordered.They had Spanish language music playing and the owner asked me if I preferred something else. I thought that was considerate but was happy to listen to what was playing.It's not a fancy place, but who wants fancy at a Mexican restaurant? It was exactly what I hoped when I searched for Mexican restaurants in Rochelle.I'll be back.“
“Dinner was awesome! Growing up in SoCal and with my Aunt's cooking homestyle for me, I got spoiled. I had the crunchy taco dinner with shredded beef. The experience took me back to my younger days. Dinner was definitely homestyle, the whole dinner was home made even to the fried taco shells. The atmosphere and service made me feel at home. If your looking for a homestyle experience, this is a must. I have been there many times and it keeps getting better each time.“
