What Zoltan Peresztegi doesn't like about El Sombrero #2:
I can’t really recommend this place, unfortunately. I only saw Mexicans working in the kitchen (and serving as well), but the food was mediocre at best and tasted nothing like the food I had in Mexico. Tacos are not street tacos, but big American-style. I’d say look for another place and thank me later. ? Parking: There’s a lot in front of the strip mall, had plenty of available spaces. View all feedback. What Jones Reece likes about El Sombrero #2:
We have been to El Sombrero #1 closer to the Pacific Ocean, parking can be hard to locate plus parking meters. The staff was courteous and very friendly knowledgeable about the expansive menu.The food was delicious and hot. They even serve adults beverages. View all feedback.

This is the place where Gringos LOVE. Many of melted Cheddar and Jack cheese on everything. Do you know that Cheddar and Jack cheese do not exist in Mexico??

I was thrilled to eat here because it was walking from our house, but my husband swears, it's the worst food. It's hard to get Mexican food so wrong, but this p...

This restaurant, called El Sombrero #2, is far from the same. The cook in this restaurant is not the same as El Sombrero #1 I can not wait until it opens again!...
