Nobody else here on Sunday before Memorial Day. So why did it take 15 minutes for server to take order?

It rates higher on the delivery apps than on Yelp but I gave it a go, anyway.The service was a little lacking... it was a Sunday night. There were a variety of diners in the place and the space has two sides of the restaurant so, every once in a while I would see someone leave from the opposite side of where I was sitting.My food came out scorching hot and was good. The rice and beans were very fresh and taste. I ordered the pollo poblano- it was a full boneless piece of chicken that had been grilled and topped with onions, corn, peppers, spinach and a sour cream sauce. Again, made with care.I will include a couple of photos but as I look at them, a yellow serving dish probably wasn't the best choice-

Dishing out typical, mediocre Mexican fare, there is nothing noteworthy about this place. This is most likely why the restaurant is seldom busy during peak days and times. The element that keeps me from returning, however, is the lackadaisical service. It is dreadful.

El Porton is my local Mexican restaurant and it's pretty good. I came in here for a late lunch with some family and we were sat down immediately. The chips and salsa came right out and the service was very quick. I ordered the number 10 combo with rice and beans. It was good but the reason why I'm placing this review at three stars instead of five, is because there was a hair in my food. I still enjoyed the food but the cleanliness of the restaurant needs to be stepped up. Overall decent food and nothing special but the cleanliness needs to be stepped up and better.

El Porton has improved greatly since my first visit! I have been here twice recently and ordered the Fajita Quesadilla both times and really enjoyed it. It's so tasty and a very big portion. The servers are all really sweet and the service is quick even during a busy time. This place seems to have a lot of bad reviews but I definitely recommend it to all

El Porton customer for about eight years. My family typically visits a couple times a month. Went tonight by myself with hopes of having a margarita, dinner and taking some food home. Sat at the bar, not very busy, waited, waited, no acknowledgement by the bartender that I exist. Two ladies sit down and he immediately acknowledges and serves them drinks. Guess I am of the wrong gender. More time passes, bartender walks by me several times and still nothing. Nice server gives me chips and salsa but still no service from the bartender. I finally leave and on my way out tell the manager how disappointed I was and that It is totally unacceptable to treat a customer that way. Drove about three miles west to a Mexican restaurant I have wanted to try for a couple years and it was great. I have found a new place. Hasta luego el porton.

Always a fun place to go with kids. The service was great. We sat outside and I need to warn you, even with the fans, the flies just about took us off! (Early October. Our choice to sit there with a 5 and 2 year old). The food is and has always been to me a solid C.

Always great food and service. Nice big patio. I've enjoyed here for lunch or dinner over the years and it's always consistent. The guacamole made in front of you is amazing.

Food was terrible. Service was even worse. Drinks were okay. This place has gone way downhill. Lived here since I was 10 years old and it used to be way better. PS: there was a hair in my food but whatever

Don't eat here unless you want violent food poisoning for two days. Absolutely ruined my work week.
