Quick service for dine in, no waits for take out. Their tablazo del tacos is a great family fun meal that doesn’t break the bank (tough to find nowadays) and they did endless margs for Cinco de Mayo.

I have been here several times. I usually get the Tacos Mexicanos ? - in addition to the tacos, I really like the grilled onions that come on the side. The food has always been good when I've ordered here! ?

I have been to all the local El Pasos and I like them all.I just never cared for the free chips & salsa. They don't taste authentic & are flavorless. I also hear the steak is absolutely horrible. It's so bad, two people I took will never go there, again. But the margaritas are affordable, delicious, there's a wide variety & you can have them made with top-shelf ingredients. I also do prefer health foods & there is very little I can order, but just enough that I still make the trip, a few times a year.With the last thought said, I would be happier if they had a healthier portion of the menu. Maybe gf tacos or burritos, refried beans without animal lard, a good-tasting vegan cheese (Kite Hill or Tofutti) and/or gf tortilla chips. Maybe even more salads, too. If they did, I'd probably go more then a few times a year. Maybe a few times a month! No one wants to eat the same thing, all the time.Although the lighting is a little bright, I do like the atmosphere. It's colorful & authentic & has plenty of booth-seating.Upon this last visit service was slow and my order came out wrong, even with a translator, but they made up for it, just fine. Usually my order comes out 100% correct.However, I will not stop going, despite anything negative I may have said!Vegetarian options: You'd have to customize a ton & note that the refried beans contain animal lard.Dietary restrictions: Nothing GF available, except a salad or dishes where the tacos come on the side (so you can just not eat them), like the enchiladas.

I left this place a 5 star review many years ago and used to eat here almost weekly. Unfortunately it has been going down hill the past few years. Quality has gone down while prices have steadily risen. The pick 2 lunch special price has gone from $6.99 to $11.99 now. A fountain soda is approaching $4 now... The salsa is sometimes okay while other times it can taste flavorless and cold like its been in the fridge for a week; many times it will have odd, large chunks of tomato instead of a uniform blend. The enchilada wraps are now thicker and have a poorer texture. Feels like cheaper ingredients are being used. Shrinkflation at its finest.
Real tex-mex in Alexandria! Nice variety in the menu. This is my go-to Mexican restaurant in the area. In addition to the traditional Mexican food dishes they have a couple options where you get a home-cooked meal-like option with steak, eggs, jalapeno, rice and frijoles. Service is quick, efficient and the the ambience is nice,, too. The multi-colored, engraved chairs and tables are fun.
