El Paso Mexican Grill - Mandeville

I called in for an enchilada lunch dinner and was told it would be ready in FIVE MINUTES!! (I should’ve known) When I got to the restaurant to pick up my order, it was ready all right but the chips were cold, enchilada was just warm and it was not fried long enough and my queso was only half filled in the cup. This dinner was probably made hours earlier and I got the leftover. I will not return..Disappointed!! This lunch was $16

I happen to be passing through town and found this place. From the outside it has a Mexican puebla look and the inside was big and clean. I had the enchiladas with salsa verde and a michelada and my sister ordered the carne asada tacos. The server was very nice and new the menu quite well. I mentioned to her I only like the spicy micheladas with salt and lime so if it was a sweet one then would opt for the margarita instead. She politely said okay but had a look like why would we make it sweet? Some Mexican American places do that but traditionally its salt lime and spices. Anyhow the enchiladas were pretty good. The portion was big and the salsa verde was mildly spicy with a little tang to it. I did love how the corn tortillas were a little toasted eventhough they were drenched in sauce. My sister's plate on the other hand made me and my brother in law jealous. I have no clue what he ordered and forgot about my own plate when the carne asada came out on a skillet with caramelized onions huddled around it. It was perfectly seared and lightly salted and the tortillas was fresh corn tortilla off the hot iron. If you like tacos let me tell you it does not get better then that. All in all it is a good place with genuine Mexican food and if you want to find other more traditional Latin American places ask the servers they know their food.

The Best Fajitas ever!!! The food was Amazing. Bean dip was Great. My husband had some queso and said it was the Best. My husband had the Chile Rellino and said it was great. Wish they had one in Abilene, TX. It was the BEST! The waiter was Amazing.

We had roaches under our table and all they said was oh we’ve been having a roach problem I’m sorry. And still paid full price.

First time we went it was great. Good portions and nice atmosphere. Second time we ordered take out. Noticeably small portions. My quesadilla's were comically small. Imagine a soft taco size. ($7.99 each). I just don't see going back for a good time. It's a shame really.

i had a misunderstanding with a to go order , when i got there to get my food i realized a few things were wrong, with zero hesitation the manager came out and refunded me for the original order and corrected everything, also let us keep the extras. Not many places have this type of customer service! Food is consistent and so are the employees!

Sorry to say this, but after we ate and were waiting for to go boxes, we noticed 2 roaches. We immediately got up and told our waiter. They apologized and of course we didn't have to pay.

Terrible service, cold food.
I’d heard excellent things about El Paso ever since moving to the Northshore, but understood it was a bit of a splurge compared to all the other texmex options nearby so I was waiting for the right day to try it. My girlfriend and I arrive around 2:20 and were promptly seated but didn’t see our server until 8 minutes later. We ordered a tea and water, and an additional 10 minutes later, we had neither. The salsa and bean dip that came to the table were so bland I was adding salt to the chips, but at least those were hot and fresh. We had to ask for a drink menu, and after ordering a cucumber margarita ($18!!!!) it arrived 15 minutes later. I asked about the price because it wasn’t listed on the menu, but my server didn’t know. I surely would NOT have spent $20 on a weak margarita with chunks of cucumber floating in it had I known it wasn’t a well made margarita.
It took our server over 30 minutes to take our food order despite being the only table in the building. We watched him bus other tables and chat with coworkers all while ignoring our empty cups and chips. The food was okay, but the tiny bits of room temp chopped steak on top of soggy cheese enchiladas was not worth it. I’m bummed to have had this experience but thankful to have crossed El Paso of my list of decent texmex joints in town. Over $100 later ($60 of which was spent on 4 margaritas in total) I’m supremely disappointed and honestly wish id asked for a refund.
I looked on the website for a way to contact a manager about our experience but alas there were no routes available. It’s honestly pretty disappointing and disgusting when a business makes zero effort to hear the feedback of their customer base, especially considering how pricey everything is.

This is one of the better Mexican restaurants in the Mandeville/Covington area. I’d say top 3. The food is always good and the service is good. Margs were good too. They have good birria tacos and you get three tacos whereas most others serve only two birria tacos.
