Impressive wait staff handling a lot of separate checks with ease.

Really kind staff, great food and drinks. Definitely recommend the tamales, the corn was out of this world!

Big parking lot right next to the restaurant, lots of spaces so very easy to park even on a Friday night in the summer.

The Yucatan soup is amazing! I order it whenever I'm feeling under the weather. It's super authentic and reminds me of living in the Yucatan. So delicious! My spouse always orders the carne asada and says it is so flavorful and tender. We love this neighborhood spot!

Delicious food, and wonderful service. We brought our toddler and she inhaled the platanos. The yuca and chicarron was perfect. Will definitely come again!

I've only been twice but it's been twice in the same week. I can't say much about the full menu because I got the soup de Limon....ah crap I forgot the name ... is the chicken soup and it's delicious! I also got a cheese and bean papusa and it was yummy, so was the horchata and Tamarindo. I WILL be back!

I've seen the mixed-ish reviews on here but my friends and I really liked this place. The food was very good. The non-alcoholic fruity drinks and horchata were all good. I got the vegetarian platter and everything was delicious and freshly made and my friends got beef dishes and seafood and loved it. The murals on the walls were beautiful (and good for photo ops). Karaoke night would definitely be too much though. Im sure its too loud. Monday night was perfect though. Service was pleasant and responsive. And parking was plentiful in the lot.

El Golfo is my favorite restaurant. It has always been a meeting place for me and friends for almost 20 years. I appreciate the fact that they support local artists.

Very good place, you can go with family and friends, there is also live music on the weekends, I recommend the mixed plate, but you won't find it on the menu, you have to ask the waiter for it, very delicious.

This is my first time leaving a review on a restaurant and the food was absolutely amazing. The food came out crazy quick and I ate the big portions even quicker. 10/10

The food was good and the service was good as well.
If you order extra Sour Cream or Club Soda, just know they'll charge you a pretty penny for those.

Vegetarian options: My friend had the Vegetarian Burrito, she said it was amazing!
