Been here many times. Trying new dishes and always greeted and taken care of from host to server. I’m not sure what others are complaining about. Plenty of variety for everyone on the menu.

This is one of my favorite eateries! The menu is great with an amazing variety of selections. There is also a nice selection in the “kids”menu.The food is well prepared and served steaming hot. My favorite burrito is the Burrito Loco-I’m ‘crazy’ about it- pun intended . I highly recommend this restaurant. The menu is huge and delicious with friendly attentive staff and nice atmosphere!

Our favorite Mexican restaurant. Always seated quickly and greeted by nice Staff. The food is spectacular, especially the pineapple fajitas and the Loco Burrito. Chip portion is small but they refill it quickly with no issue. Their beer taps were down last week but it was a rare issue. The service is always top notch and surprising how great it is. Prices are reasonable as well. A must visit in the area.

This is my new Mexican restaurant! I like everything about it. I had excellent guacamole and a shrimp taco salad. I took rice and beans home. Not many restaurants like this offer normal tasting butterflied shrimp but there were 6-8 medium shrimp in this taco salad, all good. I like the milder green sauce here, don't know how authentic it is but very good to me. I'm not a guy who requires high service but the speed and delivery of this place was incredible.

The food is delicious, and the portions are generous. The prices are very reasonable. Service was spot on, and all of the staff were attentive and kind. I only took a star away because of the chairs. They were comfortable, but the cushioned backs fell out, they are low to the ground and very heavy to move.

I've been waiting for 2 years for this location to open, so I'm so happy they are up and running now. No wait on saturday for lunch at 1:30pm. However, it was pretty full. Food was delicious, a gigantic menu with every Mexican dish you can think of and a stellar alcoholic beverage menu. Service was fantastic and fast. Love the decor and atmosphere. Sorry, I forgot to take pictures of the food menu, as my yummy food arrived and I was distracted by its deliciousness. I'm definitely going back.

We have been eating at the Congress location since it opened, but now this one is much closer to home, so we went and tried it out. As always absolutely fantastic food and service, the location is beautiful on the inside and attractive and inviting from the outside. Jasmine is running this location with a lot of her awesome staff from Congress St. If you want true Mexican Food with flavor that explodes in your mouth, than this is your go to place, and incredible drinks as well

We had a great time at El Cerrito. Their food is clearly authentic, portions are large and priced right. It’s very hard not to fill up on fresh chips, dip and salsa. The house margaritas are outstanding. Dishes ordered were enchiladas, burrito, shrimp & crab chimichangas & pineapple chicken fajitas. We had to bring 1/2 of it home. All dishes were outstanding and flavorful. Definitely recommend stopping in to curb your craving for great Mexican food.
