El Mezcal - Cordova

Very good Tex-Mex food and at a good price. We've always had good service there too.

The restaurant has a Mexican theme at its finest, as soon as you enter you feel like you are in a tavern in Mexico. The luxury tacos were 100% recommended, the grilled meat burrito had excellent grilled flavor, the California grill, sopes and on the children's menu we ordered quesadilla with potatoes. For me I ordered the enchiladas. In relation to prices it is quite economical. The horchata and hibiscus juice was delicious, it is refillable at no additional cost.

The parking was plentiful, and the lot was clean. The front entrance was easy to navigate, and it was not hard to open doors. Chips and salsa came, and we ate some chips with the salsa because we were hungry. The chips were semi chewy, not crunchy, a sign of being stale. The salsa was straight out of a jar and perhaps had been on the shelf too long? We hated it. I checked the restroom. Clean; well done! Our order was brought in maybe 5 minutes, no bad. Everything tasted bland and old, or maybe freezer burnt. How many times do you think you should be checked on after your order is delivered to your table? 1 5 times during the course of your meal? Or zero, zip, nada....etc. We got the old goose egg! Oh, they did manage to find someone to bring the bill. You do have to pay as you leave as the staff had no time to take your card at the table. The staff was not that busy. The restaurant was half filled with patrons, so I am not sure why common and courteous service was lacking. This is a place of mediocrity and poorly crafted food. We came, we half ate, we will never return.

Great food, super friendly, will be back soon. Burritos, tacos, enchiladas, chips, guacamole all ?. Thank you very much my friends. I'll be back soon with a smile.

Mexican food is not the same everywhere you go. I could eat Mexican food every single day and I know when it is not good! The food here is pretty awesome. The portions are large and everything is seasoned very well. They have great cheese dip. I love the hard shell tacos and the carne asada. The chicken soup is homemade and has huge chunks of chicken in it... best we've ever had. I don't know if this matters to anyone, but the bathrooms are in immaculate. That is not something that you see in most restaurants these days. Excellent service and they are always so very polite.
