El Especial is a Mexican restaurant located in a strip mall, known for its authentic atmosphere and delicious food. The interior is vibrant and clean, providing a pleasant dining experience. Customers have raved about the chicken, but the steak in the steak quesadillas was a bit tough. However, the taco sauces and affordable prices have been praised.
The restaurant can get very busy, resulting in slow service and longer wait times than expected. The burrito dinner plate is a popular choice, served with rice, beans, and a small salad with Catalina/French dressing. The beans are richer and creamier than standard fare, and a unique side of boiled potato and beef in broth is served with the burritos. The tortillas are light and delicate, and the pozole is a warm and comforting dish, perfect for those in need of recovery.
Although the radish in the pozole was not fresh, overall, the food at El Especial has been well-received. The home-cooking vibe and comfortable atmosphere make it a welcoming dining experience.
