Love El Espolon, Great Food, Excellent Happy Hour prices and daily meal specials. All the servers and waitresses are very friendly and helpful! Highly recommend EL Espolon on Eastland or on Elm.

Hey cousins...the place was recommended by people who aren't cousins.
Food: I ordered a side of rice and beans, a shredded chicken quesadilla, and a ground beef hard taco. The rice and beans were tasteless. The quesadilla looked like a stuffed taco with only cheese and shredded chicken...a la carte, mind you, so I kind of expected more. The taco tasted funny and was tasteless at the same time. How they pulled that off, I don't know. I also ordered extra cilantro and did not get that at all.
Service: it took a very long time to even get our order taken. They were busy so I get it. But our food came faster than it took for us to order. I do appreciate the fact that two different employees tried finding out what I didn't like and offered to make something else but at that point, I wanted nothing. The cashier wanted to drop our ticket from $31 to $20. No sir, I barely tasted any of that food.
Atmosphere: I gave it 3 stars, because it was clean inside. However, it's so loud in there that you can't have a sober conversation.

We love elm st El espolon, to us they are better than other Mexican restaurants in jc. Our kids absolutely love the sampler. Our only complaint is on occasion, they will leave some items off what you order. I'm not sure if it is them trying to cut costs or they are in a hurry or what? For instance I have ordered the polo pirata multiple times. It always comes with 4 pieces of a chimichanga sort of thing, but the last time I ordered it, it came with 3. The same thing has happened several times on the sampler platter, some items are missing unless you call them out on it, that's pretty disappointing! I hope they stop this in the future

Our server was amazing! I believe he was the bartender but we came an hour before closing due to the prison tour. They seemed like they were not to happy but was still polite and nice. A plus side it smelled great in there due to them cleaning. Margarita was perfect! I loved it! If I lived closer I would come just for the dragfruit margs!

I don’t know who came up with the idea of a play place on the patio so you can drink margs and eat in peace while your kids play, but it’s a million dollar idea and all restaurants should take note!
Kid-friendliness: Amazing, fenced in place place! I think we may do his birthday here! They even have big industrial fans to keep you cool and keep the bugs away! So fun! We will be back!
