Matteo's Mexican Food - El Paso

This place isn't authentic but it's still good! lol. It will for sure fix a craving! I continue to order here for lunch while I'm at work. Again, not really authentic but still super good!

What can I say? It's fast, fresh, and fantastic. Met a friend for a late lunch and the place was still busy. I didn't realize it was a fast casual concept, but thought it was a trendy sit down restaurant. It sort of is both. You get in a line to order, then find seating, but most people leave their keys etc as a placeholder. Once you're in line you can order a drink like agua frescas which is made fresh and flavors can change daily. I went to order and I saw some people mixing the drinks together and so I mixed the Coco Nuez (with pecans) and the Blue Ocean (with pineapple). My friend got strawberry cheesecake and horchata, his came with a whipped cream and cracker crumbles topping. They both were very very sweet. The service was knowledgeable and I ordered mine to go because I had items for my kids and hubby. I ordered a carne asada burrito, it comes with cilantro and onions and salsa and guacamole, but they asked if I wanted to add tomatoes, lettuce, or beans, which was cool, but hubby likes it plain. I also ordered 2 bean and cheese burritos for the kids, and a chicharron burrito and a keto bowl because I was curious. It came out to be like $35 for 4 burritos, a bowl, and an agua fresca. I added a tip because even though my order was to go and they called out your name to pickup alongside the delivery services like GrubHub, Doordash and their own app, they do have table service and the server will bring you your items if you ordered to eat there.Warning the middle seating is very intimate, when the ladies seated at the table next to us can see and comment on our food, you know it's tight. It was all good though, they were just curious if we liked it and wanted to see what the items looked like. It would be nice to see the menu items in some form, especially since my Keto bowl was very surprising with just half carne asada with cilantro and half the chicharron green chili stew. The portions were big and my kids and hubby inhaled their food and hubby really liked the burrito so I foresee us coming back often. The chicharron burrito kicked my butt, it was so good, but spicy! The drink definitely helps cool you down though. The keto bowl was a surprise hit that night. Very filling but light. The only thing that took away from the experience was a big piece of chili stem that cut my mouth. I guess it's good to know that they use real roasted chili in their stew, but that hurt and I hope they'll be more careful as someone can choke on it in addition to being cut up. See pic for size. My friend loved his strawberry and drink because it was so sweet and he was raving about his Matteo's bowl which to me looked like a guacamole lettuce mashup. It looked really refreshing and for him to rave about it when he dislikes vegetables was amazing. This bowl might give Salata next door a run for its money. All in all another great addition to the North Westside and I'm a fan. Matteo's Mexican Food(915) 249-60706450 Desert Blvd N Suite E-106, El Paso, TX 79912https://maps.app.goo.gl/NK7jQnE9Y9Wx5q4n6

Green chicken enchiladas!Hot and ready to pick up. Wouldn't eat in as it's a very limited area. Tastes the same in El Paso as it does in LC.

I'm so happy they decided to open up a restaurant in El Paso. It's only an extra 15 minutes away, but when you are travelling round trip, it makes all the difference. Their aguas frescas are always great, and I found a new favorite, "dirty horchata" which is horchata topped with cold brew. Its like a less sweet (and probably healthier" Starbucks drink.I'm not usually a fan of enchiladas, but I decided to order them Christmas style, hold the chicken and ad an egg. While I usually stay away from red sauces, but theres is one that I would eat again. However, the green is still above and beyond. The egg adds a nice creaminess to them, but i ordered over medium, but there was a little slime left to the white. However, it wasn't enough to deduct a star. Come for the aguas, stay for the food... Brisket on Fridays and Saturdays until they sell out.

Holy cow this place is so good. I had heard from a friend that lives in Cruces that the food here is phenomenal. And to be quite honest I agree. It's definitely pricier than our typical local Mexican restaurants, but it is definitely worth it! I had the chicharron gordita with rice and beans. Let me tell you, it satisfied my craving 100%! The staff were friendly, and the location was clean and felt inviting. Highly recommend the Horchata, Blue Ocean, and Melon aguas. So far from what I've tried everything seems so good. Would highly recommend!

Delicious Chile verde burrito and tacos. Remember to add cheese and lettuces and tons of hot sauce! Will definitely be back!

I used to go to the Matteo's in downtown Las Cruces all the time but this place in west El Paso is so much better. The food is hot and fresh and it has flavor. I had the Matteo's burrito and the meat was well seasoned, the fries were crispy, and it arrived in a couple of minutes even with a full restaurant. In Cruces the fries are soggy, the meat is like diced rubber, there is a fist full of cilantro in it, and the staff spend more time wiping tables and making drink orders while food piles up on the counter. My only gripe about the overall restaurant chain is that the food is hella expensive for what you get and prices keep going up.

Delicious! The aguas are super good. We ordered a torta, chicken tacos, and asada tacos. All were very delicious and generous servings. We took tacos home because it was a lot of food. Can't wait to go back and try out the rest of the menu.

The food is amazing and very light! The service is always welcoming and friendly. When they had the grinch drink that was WONDERFUL! Overall a very welcoming experience and great food!

Great food! Excellent prices, service with a smile! The brisket/brisket tacos are the bomb!
