What else can I say about this restaurant besides the food is amazing the steak burrito feeds me three times and I'm no skinny man. I wish they had more seating but can't beat takeout.

Pork tacos were amazing!

As it turns out a lot of establishment are closed on Mondays. Our normal go to restaurants were all closed which caused us to branch out. We stumbled across this place and was pleasantly surprised! The food was very flavorful and came out quickly. We will definitely return!

One of the best local spots to get some Mexican food! The food is great and always filling. I personally like to get some loaded nachos, a Swiss Steak or Pork burrito or chimichanga, and the tacos. The Horchata is very good as well! The only thing I would watch out for is if you go to dine-in for lunch or dinner at the prime time, you may have to wait awhile because there isn't much sitting. Otherwise, you can't go wrong with El Amigo!

We went to get dinner here and there was only one server. We felt bad because it seemed like he was being overworked. He was really nice. We waited about half an hour and he gave us the wrong order. What we did get was completely bland. The tacos were soggy with no flavor. The chips were stale and the salsa wasn't good either.The Horchata we got was probably the only thing that was okay. We won't ever come back here.
