El Cerro Grande Reviews
Fajitas with just salt is what the waiter said but couldn’t even taste that! When we asked it to be remade was told it would be the same! Salsa barely more than blended tomatoes! No heat no flavor! The only thing that makes it better than Taco Bell is alcohol and Cheri-queso! Do not recommend!!!
I was there today for the taco Tuesday special.
The server we had could not get the order right and when we asked for some cheese dip he asked if we were being rude.
this is the third time he has messed up my order.
if I do dine there again I will ask for another server besides this one.
Dined there for the first time last night with friends. Excellent food and even better service!
