What User likes about El Metate:
I haven't been in the Signal Mountain for decades. So everything's new to me. My first impression of El Metate is good. They sat immediately and a waitress was almost immediately at my table. I ordered a shredded chicken taco salad from the lunch menu. It was literally on my table in less than 2 minutes! The food was good and tomatoes were ripe. Table and utensils were immaculate. View all feedback. What User doesn't like about El Metate:
I lived in Houston for almost 15yrs.This place is nothing to write home about.El Metate will do in a pinch if you're on the mountain and don't want to go into town. It normally has a crowd that would make you think it's the bees knees. I'm guess they're drawn to the facts that it's open later than most places and chip are free. View all feedback.

The food at this restaurant is absolutely incredible, and the staff is very polite. I will definitely be returning to eat there again.

They treat us like family every time we come in and the food is just good Mexican food. Can't recommend enough, all the servers know us by name!

The food used to be better. Service did too, but you can't get that anywhere now. Grateful for anything up here though.

Service is better than the food. They love their cheese sauce which is ok but it seems like Velveeta cheese. The tortillas are the same ones you buy at the groc...
