What User likes about El Porton Mexican Grill:
I cannot recommend this place enough. We don’t even live in Glenwood and we drive there to eat. And if we go to Glenwood to visit my son and his family, we definitely stop then also. The owner and everyone of the staff members are very kind and pleasant and welcoming. The food is all amazing and they are very gracious and will do anything to make sure your food is perfect And your dining experience is good. View all feedback.

What Alysson Johnson doesn't like about El Porton Mexican Grill:
I just left this restaurant. I ordered fajitas and waited for a few minutes, but no food came. The service was unacceptable. I will go to a different restaurant to eat. I can spend my money anywhere and get better service. View all feedback.

Nestled in Glenwood, this restaurant stands out for its exceptional Mexican cuisine and warm atmosphere. Diners rave about the generous portions, flavorful dishes, and must-try margaritas, particularly the chicken fajitas and enchilada platter. Despite some mixed feedback on service, with a few mentioning unaccommodating servers, the majority praise the friendly and attentive staff who create a welcoming environment. Many loyal patrons make frequent visits, often driving from nearby areas to enjoy the quality food and inviting ambiance. With a solid kids menu and wheelchair accessibility, this gem is perfect for families and anyone seeking a memorable dining experience.
