El Mariachi

Nice spot to try out authentic Mexican food. Even when ordering basic crunchy tacos, it included diverse sides and dips to explore with.

I was in the mood for Mexican food (again) and I wanted to go somewhere I hadn't been before. I saw that El Mariachi wasn't too far from where I was at the time, and it got good reviews, so I decided to try it.The restaurant is fairly large, but they only had half of it open when I was there. The decor is bright, airy and friendly.I was only seated a minute when Eric brought out chips and salsa. Very good chips and salsa. Very dangerous chips and salsa! Lol! In my opinion, it seemed a little more upscale and expensive than other Mexican restaurants, but not overly so. They also offer a lot more than just your average tacos-burritos-enchiladas. It took me a while to figure out what I wanted; I changed my mind several times but finally settled on the small carnitas fajita salad, which is something I hadn't seen on a menu before. It was pretty big for a small salad; I couldn't even finish it. (Probably because of the aforementioned chips & salsa!) the meat was cooked nicely, and I liked the variety of vegetables in the salad. The tortilla shell was particularly good -- light, crispy and flaky, and not at all greasy like so many other shell bowls.I will definitely make a point to remembeer this restaurant, even though it is a bit far away from me.

Good food, quick service on 2 occasions. Pleasantly surprised by the reasonable prices. Definitely going back!

always authentic tasting, great servers The variety on the menu is refreshing. Salsa is great and spicy. One of our favorites is the black bean salad.

Started out praying that we wouldn't have to sit next the small child in line with us watching TV on her parents smart phone at a volume everyone in the lobby could hear. #bad-parenting.Thankfully the host saved the day! We were given a great booth nowhere near that kid.This food was AMAZINGLY FRESH! Waitress was on point and made great recommendations, provided fast service and anticipated needs. Service and food will make this a success, so you better get a table here before the masses find this place! We will be back!!!

Perhaps it's a matter of previous experience from other establishments and expectations but really disappointed in the nachos with shrimp. Dish was barely warm....the shrimp was cold, mini cocktail shrimp........and it lacked flavor.....On the positive side - staff was attentive and friendly!

Food was very good besides carrot cakeOnly reason I'm writing this as 3 star is cause I got a peanut/nut allergy and asked twice if carrot cake was nut free and waiter got annoyed and said nut free then asked if I'm allergic to carrots Yeah bro there was walnuts, good thing I only had a mild reaction. Train your staff better, as someone might be more allergic and then id recommend 1800CALLSAM

We totally love Mexican food. This place was awesome. We are very picky with Mexican and this is number one place.

This food doesn't even deserve 1 star, I could have made chicken enchiladas better myself. The rice came out of bag - looks like something in the frozen section. The chicken enchiladas had 0 sauce even though I ordered ranchero, and the beans were in a weird liquid.

My wife and I love this place. The enchiladas are delicious. The chicken tortilla soup is great and A drinks are fantastic. I give them a five star.
