What Kayleigh Anderson doesn't like about El Mexicano:
I just moved from New Mexico so my standards for Mexican food are pretty high, but I really didn't care for this place. Salsa tasted like tomato sauce and the steak taco meat made me think of meatballs- seemed like Italian seasoning but I'm not sure. Service and atmosphere was good, but what I ordered was pretty low quality. View all feedback. What KaveMan likes about El Mexicano:
My Opinion Is This Is The Best Mexican Joint In This City. Mexican Owned And Mexican Operated. Went in Last Night Bout 30 Minutes B4 Closing and was told we couldnt Dine in and they Told Us We Could Only Order Tacos and Burritos. I Normally Have The Enchiladas With Beans And Rice. Made Me Rethink If It Was It Still The Best The Best Taco Join In Pissoria (Peoria). Taste Wise Not Much Can Top This Place... View all feedback.
