El Chile is the absolute best restaurant. It’s well located, has parking, great patio, the bar is awesome. They have $5 margaritas every Monday. Great service. When I’m on a hurry and order to go, food is always perfect. My favorite brunch menu item has to be chilaquiles, absolutely fantastic!!

Food did not come out hot - cheese was solid inside enchiladas and fajitas did not come out sizzling as menu states they would. Just okay food - but prickly pear marg is amazing! However, Service was great!

Nice place close to my hotel, and great atmosphere with nice music! Ceviche was fresh and beers were cold. Will be stopping by again as Christan made sure the beets kept coming. Also had a Redfish taco the following day as well! Went twice as it was just priced right and food was that good.
