Food was good, but the waiter ripped us off and charged us 92$ for 3 lunch specials, charging us extra for the things in the menu description, that we're described as part of the meal, and two drinks. When I asked the waiter, about the charges, he refused to take it off. Also guacamole was runny and not very fresh.

We ordered nachos, 2 burritos, and a side of rice and beans and chips and ramekin of salsa, for $75. The nacho chips were beyond stale, they were chewy and many were inedible. The burritos were so tiny and came ala cart, no rice and beans. They did not look or taste like $14 burritos. It was a huge disappointment. We want to like this place so bad, but it has been a repeated disappointment. We won't be back.

El Pulpo is a good Mexican restaurant for a quick and enjoyable lunch. The portions are generous and fairly priced. The staff are all helpful and very friendly. The atmosphere is great with octopus themed decor as per the name El Pulpo.

El Pulpo is one of our go-tos for authentic Mexican food. The staff is great. The fusion choices such as octopus tacos are novel. Take out is a breeze with their drive thru window. I recommend giving them a shot.

The absolute blandest beef and chicken I've had anywhere. $4 glass of lemonade as well.

Ordered takeout online and showed up a few minutes after our estimated pick up time to be sure it was ready. First girl came to window and stated she'd be right back. Second girl came to window and asked how can I help you? Informed her we're here for takeout, told us we'd have to wait 5 more minutes. After waiting 15-20 minutes after her telling us that (35 minutes total after our estimated pickup time) our food was brought to the window by the second girl who acted like she was in a rush and couldn't get away from us fast enough. Will not be returning or recommending this place anymore.

I was really craving Mexican food, so I went to the restaurant with my brother to try the fajitas. Unfortunately, the experience was disappointing. The food lacked flavor, the portion size was a bit small. For the price, it just didn’t live up to expectations. The only thing I genuinely enjoyed was the Mexican soda—it was actually quite good. Other than that, I wouldn’t recommend this place unless they change the chef.

Went here on Wednesday around 1, and immediately had a table and ordered drinks. I got the rainbow margarita, which is divided into thirds (strawberry, mango, lime) and is fantastic! To eat, I can't remember the name of the item, but I requested the meat to be replaced with salmon. The chunks of fish were cooked perfectly and seasoned, as well as the vegetables inside the burrito. Then the while burrito was covered in a queso sauce, and served with seasoned rice. Everything was SO GOOD. TJ got the fried vegetarian chimichangas and they were also amazing. And the best part was that the Margarita was 1/2 off since it's Wednesday! If you want banger food, EAT HERE!

I truly hate posting a bad review about a small business but I feel compelled to post this as a PSA. I was traveling through with my mom and she had cravings for tacos so we stopped by here based on decent reviews. The beef tacos were inedible. It used ground beef that was barely seasoned topped with lettuce and cheese. The Mexican rice tasted old and dry. Shrimps in the fajita barely sizzled and had a funky order of freezer burn. I hope the owners of this restaurant seriously consider a new chef because the place empty on a Friday night and there’s a reason for that
