Great Mexican food! Great service!
After much hype from my love, we decided to go on a road trip today, just to have a late lunch here. The owner (or manager) was super friendly and remembered him.
The atmosphere is quintessential Mexican dive and the menu has plenty of delicious sounding offers. The food was pretty good, although I think they could have served it on a less-scorching skillet, as our asada and veggies were burnt and dry by the time we finished. However, the portions and flavor was definitely there...and the salsa was fire!! Loved it. They did a good job on my request for a peach jalapeños margaritas, as well.
If we are ever in the area again, I know we will mosey back over there, even though our waitress was pretty forgetful. I would have understood, had it been busy, but we were only one of 3 tables, and the forgetfulness carried through the entire service, from water, to napkins, to the 2nd margaritas.
All in all a decent experience in a nice atmosphere.

Food looks good but I did not try it. They need to update their prices online. I placed a to go order and when I got there they said it was twice the price as it shows online. The manager said she does not have any prices posted online but they do.

Stop by every time I am in Elgin. Really enjoy the breakfast tacos.
El Meguey is a great bar to unwind after a long workday! I always stop by for a cold beer and to catch some sports before heading back to Colinas RV Park. Staying here with my Keystone Camper—peaceful, gated, and a great place to call home.
Waitress seemed drunk. She could even repeat our order as we said it. Ask for a small item she brings and charges us for a large. Ask for no salt on our drinks both times and still the sink has salt. The food was mid. She stood talking for 12 minutes 8' away from us a we waited for her to go get our ticket. And she was not talking to a customer. And if I had to write something like this, well that means this was not good at all.
Staff dosnt know how to take orders amd when you ask questions they get short mad amd rude.
