El Bandido Mexican Restaurant

Walking in the door I spotted a statue of something beautiful. I knew I was in good company. The food was great, beer cold, and server was friendly and happy. I like this place on a deep level.

Very disappointed with the food at Viva Bandido. Ordered chicken quesadillas which looked like Stew chicken tacos. My daughter discovered a hair in her dish.
We approached the waiter about the issue and he laughed, stating nothing was wrong with the food.
Alex the manager was understanding and apologized. I paid for the items we did consume and left immediately.
Not worth my time to revisit.

Posted hours for Saturday night are until 11pm. I drove 20 minutes to get here and arrived at 10pm. The place was clearly closing down. Lights full on, chairs up on the tables, floors being mopped. What I was told in broken English was essentially that they were closed because "no people". I.e. closed due to lack of interest. Well, I certainly have no interest in giving this place another chance.

Loved the shrimp tacos!!!

Used to come here often in high school and moved out of state. Visited yesterday and WOW. Some things get better as they age. This is one of them. The homemade salsa was so good it ended up all over my shirt. Highly recommended.

Parking: Great lot. Like you are parking in another country. Very well done.

The drinks were great, but as for the food... It's not so great. I had 2 tacos...one with chicken the other birria. There is no seasoning on the meat at all... and the birria did not taste at all like it's supposed to. I would go back to sit at the bar for drinks and chips and salsa or guacamole. But I will pass on the food.

Highly recommend if you're in the area

Terrible service and terrible food. Everyone around us got the complimentary quesadilla except us. Food came out with no flavor. Steak was white with no seasoning, raw chopped onions (i asked for grilled onions). Birria burrito meat was tough with no flavor. Mexican corn came out seasoned with ketchup nothing else. I questioned the corn he said yes it's done right. When I asked to fix my white steak my plate came back with the fixings on the corn? Guacamole had what tasted like glass in it. When we told the server he had an attitude. And then had the nerve to ask if we wanted coffee at the end. Super disappointed. Prior experience was great.This was the last time going here.

Been going here since I was a kid. I love this place my only complaint is I wish the guacamole was better. The combo plates are so much food and are so tasty. I love mixing everything together it all meshes well.
