My husband and I stopped in here for a quick lunch during a busy day of errands. It was very busy but we expected that due to it being lunch on a Sunday. When we walked in we were greeted and promptly seated. Looking around the restaurant was clean and well kept. I ordered the pork carnitas and we also got the guacamole with pico de gallo. The service was great even with the crowd they had. Our food came out quickly and hot. It was delicious. The prices weren't bad either. The only complaint I have is that the restroom wasn't as clean as it could have been.Otherwise I would recommend.

I love this neighborhood go-to spot! The service is always friendly and the food never disappoints. I've had burritos and margaritas here but recently I tried their arroz con pollo and it is by far the best acp I've had! Can wait to go back

El Amigo was a weekly thing when I worked on this side of town! I would bet their nachos to go, I've had their tacos, I even dined in before & had their chicken fajitas. Their rice & beans are so good! Real authentic Mexican food. Some days I'd buy their guac and have it for a snack. It's prepared in house & it's so good. I lol the consistency. I'm love pico de Gallo, so I'd add fresh pico on top o the guac for the extra onions & cilantro. So good!

Super super friendly service but the food was not great. The host and waiters were great. The chips tasted stale and the menus needed to be wiped down...they had old queso and beans on them. Then refried beans were overly salty and the fajitas weren't great. Maybe it was just an off day...again super friendly service but we won't ever be back.

I have been here many many times and have never had bad service, bad food, or a bad experience. The food is always hot and tasty and the staff are always friendly! I love that they serve their ACP with or without vegetables. The chip baskets are kept full and it is never a long wait to receive your order!

I've only ever had this food as delivery but it is a great option if you're lazy or have people over, which is the reasons I ordered. If you're wondering if you get chips when getting takeout, I did the first time ordering but not the second. Both times I ordered queso dips, but the second time only received a small amount of chips. Everyone has loved their meals so far. I personally have tried the chorizo queso and the carnitas. This is my go to dish when exploring a menu at a Mexican restaurant. It's become quite a comfort meal for me! Theirs did not disappoint. I was loaded up on portion and flavor. Hopefully when I visit at the restaurant I can get tortillas alongside with some spicy sauce to amp up the experience.

The food is amazing! I've dined inside and ordered take out before. Lately I've done more takeout since I no longer live in the city but I've been here multiple times over the span of 12-15 years and I've never left disappointed. My go to is the chef special which comes with grilled chicken/shrimp, refried beans, and rice. I ordered two large plates for take out and took one to work the following day which turned out to be a great idea because it was still just as good even after being reheated. Definitely recommend going to eat here.

Food was good. The ambience was really good and the service made our needs. We didn't wait. We got it when we wanted it and we weren't rushed. Could you ask? For more

We eat here all the time and love it so much! Victor is the best! When we walked in, Carly had the brightest smile and checked on us multiple times even though she was not our server. Thank you El Amigo!!

I have been eating at El Amigo for probably 20 years or more and have seen the quality of food and service go down as the costs go up. Prior to Covid it was a great meal, great service and affordable. I know Covid was hard on all businesses, but still ordered carry-out often and started finding the prices increasing and they started adding charges for an extra salsa or chips that were all you wanted in the restaurant.Now that Covid is over and an almost new staff is in place the service for dine in is terrible. Stopped ordering carry-out since they charge for the extras. Stopped there with a friend to have a late lunch around 1 or 1:30 and it was not that busy, but the service was terrible. The order came out incorrect for mine with a $.79 charge for extra pico i ask for on my CA Burrito and a glob of guac on the plate that I did not order and do not like. Had to ask for additional salsa when I could get the waitresses attention since they pour it into a super small bowl that run out after a handful of chips. Finally we ended up with no chips and no salsa and the wait staff just walked by and ignored us. When she did finally return we just ask for a to go box and the check since most of the food had gotten cold waiting on salsa. When the check came and I found $30 for a 2 person lunch to be extremely expensive for what has become average food and poor service. Luckily there are additional Mexican restaurants around that have much better service, reasonable prices and the food is very tasty. This was my last meal at El Amigo or at least for a very long time.
