What DG likes about El Mexicana:
The Mexican food at this restaurant is delicious, especially when you consider that it's located in a service station surrounded by fast food and plastic sandwiches. While the wait time may be long and the prices not particularly cheap, they serve a delicious burrito with a wide variety of ingredients. The portions are also quite generous. View all feedback. What J Lastname doesn't like about El Mexicana:
I had the unfortunate experience of dining at this restaurant, where the burritos were lacking in filling, the chicken was flavorless and dry, and there were no sauces available for the wedges (which appeared to be store-bought). The prices were high, the drinks were warmer than room temperature, and the service was rude. Overall, it was the worst dining experience I have ever had. View all feedback.

Great concept but all the food was way over cooked and many food items were not available.

This restaurant is fine for a quick bite to eat, but it's obvious that the food is made with frozen ingredients.
