El Lago Mexican Restaurant Reviews
Not very friendly, had to get up and get items we asked for. Bathroom was dirty. Waitress turned and walked off other way when I went to ask her for an item. Diid not bring enough serving plates and utensils. Had no music playing. Did no get any welding from the margarita we ordered. Bill was pretty high for the food to be so bad.
My favorite restaurant in town. Great food at a great price. Try the chicken soup.
We went to this restaurant twice and they overcharged both times when my friend got her credit card bill. I called and had to call back three times to try to get it resolved. Finally talked to someone that said they were sending a check because they couldn’t figure out how to put it back on the card, which never came and now won’t return a call. Such a terrible experience.

El Lago Mexican Restaurant offers a delightful dining experience with its tasty and generous portions of Mexican cuisine. The salsa bar is a highlight, featuring a unique pineapple salsa. The service is praised as speedy, courteous, and very attentive, making it a reliable choice for both casual meals and special occasions like wedding rehearsals. Customers mention that the shrimp fajitas for two are plentiful and delicious, with great value for the money. The restaurant has a warm family atmosphere, with quick food and great service. The queso with chorizo is also a popular dish. Parking is close to the entrance, and the staff works hard to provide a good experience despite being in a busy tourist area during the summer. Overall, customers highly recommend this restaurant and plan to return.
