“I was hesitant to come to this location because of the awful reviews. I ended up having the best experience as if I was eating at an upscale 5 star restaurant. There is a server named Berenice that did a phenomenal job. I had to ask how long she’s been working at Chili’s and she said one full week! If you’re coming to this location just ask for her to serve you! She’s great. Bravo Berenice.“

“Really good food and atmosphere. Watch out for the automatic tip on the receipt. They didn't include it on Thursday but did on Friday. Usually I tip 20% but when places automatically add 18%, I don't tip extra when places auto tip. They also included a tip line even tho they added an auto tip lol, not falling for that trick.“

The Guacamole was fresh, simply seasoned, with chunks of avocado!I had the Shrimp Tacos, perfection - like tasting Summer in Cancun.Phil had the chicken & steak quesadilla Phenomenal!We shared rice and beans - perfect accompaniment to our light dinners.We rounded out the meal with coffees with(With warm milk) and an order of Churros. Crunchyon the outside, soft on the inside and the perfect balance of cinnamon & sugar!Mexican food was a staple in my house growing up because of a woman named Sue Kivett, a Mexican woman who was a hospital roommate of my mom's when I was a baby.My brother and I are always on the look out for quality Mexican restaurants that don't work too hard to bring the flavors and the spirit of our childhood to life. So happy to have found El Paso in our own backyard!Bienvenido los todos!“

“Strolling through town a wanted a little snack to go with my healthy smoothie from earlier. I walked in and was warmly greeted by a cheerful guy. After checking out the menu, I asked him what his favorites were and he made all the tacos sound so delicious. I was kinda of leaning towards a bowl, but after hearing all the taco goodness I grabbed a Cajun shrimp taco to hold me over till later.Turns out the guy I was chatting with was the owner, Todd. Really great to interact with him, super passionate about this place.Service was fast, taco was $6ish, and it was really tasty. I should've grabbed a deal for three, but I'll be back to eat more another day. You should too!“

“OMG! I live in the area and I decided to order on a whim! I should start with I love Mexican food but this was beyond my expectations. I ordered the three taco platter (which is dairy free by the way) . I ordered the pork! It was absolutely delicious! I also ordered the guacamole and I wasn't sure because it did not say homemade but it was and it was a very generous portion (they used at least two avocados) and also delicious! Very impressed! I have tried to get good Mexican food on the South shore and by far this is the best! It is a little pricey as the three tacos, guacamole and chips with tip came to $36.00 but again it was delicious!“

Maybe a little more salt but the sopa was perfect. Churros crunchy and sweet comes with 4 and an ice cream scoop. The chocoflan is a special and they only have it sometimes. If they have it try it! Service: the restaurant owner was so kind and showed us pictures of all the foods. Inside: nice pop Mexican music, originals, and remixes. They also have outside seating.“

“The highlight of our dining experience is definitely Gabbie's exemplary service, she was friendly, efficient, and even brought us refills when she saw we were running low, demonstrating amazing observation skills and attunement! The burger was pretty decent, although it was salted unevenly where some bites were very salty and others flavorless. Additionally, the bread didn't hold the burger well and quickly deconstructed, resulting in a fork and knife experience. The steak in the steak fajita was surprisingly tender and flavorful with its various components, so that's highly recommended! Overall we had a wonderful experience and I just want to thank Gabbie for her amazing service which definitely enhanced our experience!Thank you for reading and best of luck! (:“

“The food is fresh and delicious. The service is quick and the girl working in the front is super sweet and friendly. Their dishes are also very cheap yet filling. Are usually have the steak fajitas. It comes with rice and beans, lettuce, pico, sour cream and two tortillas on the side. I recently ordered nachos with guacamole, and those were fresh, crispy and to die for! The only reason I waited there atmosphere to stars is because they’re not focused on dine in. It is an option, however, most people take out or get it delivered. Overall I love fresh tortillas and would recommend.“

“Stop playing with me. I stopped by this unassuming little restaurant on a whim while waiting for my car at Hyundai. I had no idea I was about to have one if he best breakfasts I've eaten all year.SERVICE:Excellent service all around. Order at the front counter and they have a few seats inside. I dined in and had no complaints. FOOD:Woo. Alright, so I had Mangu. Had I ever had Mangu before today? No. But a quick google search confirmed that it's a traditional Dominican breakfast consisting of mashed plantains with pickled red onion, thick fried salami, eggs and a fried cheese. The presentation was like something you'd expect out of a 45-minute wait $30-a-plate brunch spot. It was gorgeous. And as good as it looked, I can tell you it tasted even better. I'm not a Mangu aficionado by any stretch, but I could find no faults with this meal.The salami was salty and crunchy, the cheese fried to a beautiful golden brown, eggs were over-medium as requested, and the mashed plantains stole the show - slightly chunky, hearty and filling with a perfect amount of acid from the red onion. Everything complimented everything. It was so good, I was compelled to sit here in the restaurant and write this review immediately after finishing.If you're in the area, do yourself a favor and run - don't walk - to this little cafe. I only wish I had more of a reason to be in Bloomfield. Hey - maybe now I do.“

“If u want budgeted Empire Szechuan type food this is ur best option on port richmond ave. Ordered the sesame chicken/boneless rib combo with pork fried rice (instead on the pork lo mein) and a order of pan fried pork dumplings. Dumplings were cheap but way better than I had on the ave. Boneless ribs actually had meat on them. Chicken was oversauced and sweet but ok. I remember a time when it was either No 1 or Didi. Now the question has been definitively answered.“
