This place was interesting. The rice was plain. The beans were good. The carne asada needed seasoning but it was cooked perfectly. The dish with chicken and pinnaple was amazing. Their green salsa was delicious. There queso was really good but it was a subtle flavor. The chips were basic. The homemade tortilla was kind of plain.

TL;DR the food was either really good or really plain. Just depends on what you get.

I had a party of 19 there this evening for my daughter’s birthday and it was absolutely perfect. Food was delicious, the servers were kind and attentive. I would recommend this place over and over again. Quality food and amazing service

I had the carne asada and the wife had something with pineapple in it. Both of us loved it and it had very nice presentation. We both had margaritas and thought they were exceptional. Highly recommend trying EL SITIO.
