Stayed in S St Paul for a stay-cation and saw this spot had high ratings. Upon entering, we were greeted and welcomed. The space was clean and tidy. Coraline was playing on the television! The menu looked great and decided to order the chicken and arugula pizza. We could watch our pizza being made from start to finish. The artistry and craftsmanship of this pizza maker was outstanding -- I could see the beautiful undercrust as he was turning it. When eating, the ingredients were delicious (especially the chicken) but something was not gelling together. The chicken and cheese and jalapeño sound like it would be flavorful but was kind of flat. The arugula on top was tossed in a vinaigrette that was too vinegary and pungent. I shared half the pizza and by the 3rd slice (halfway point), the crust was a bit sogged out by the vinaigrette. I think the pizza needed some cracked black pepper before baking and lighten the dressing on the greens. Would be better in my opinion. I also read very positive comments about the carne asada. If I'm in the area again, I'll come back and try another!

Excellent pizza and excellent service.Stop by and create your own combination from their list of ingredients.The ingredients are special, excellent quality and they take care in the preparation.Try garlic on your pizza - fresh sliced and it makes a pizza.The sausage has fennel and is excellent.

La Mexicana pizza was amazing. Probably the best wood fired pizza I've ever eaten. It does have a bit of heat from the jalapeños but the overall flavor brings it back to a delicious bite. And the crust at the end is crispy and a perfect finish to a wonderful meal.

We ended up at El Hornito after we found out the pho spot was closed Mondays. Located in a small shopping center. No parking issues. Looked bright, clean, and new inside. We saw a large woodfired oven and beer on tap! We walked up to the counter and ordered the woman up front was very kind and patient. We ordered an original pepperoni and the La mexicana, also a large Cesar salad. We were asked if we wanted spicy ranch and of course we said yes. The wait was very short for the salad and the pizza. Salad was great, fresh, and likely homemade croutons. Now the pizza was superb! Great crust with the woodfired taste. The la mexicana had carne asada veggies/jalapenos! It was top tier. We had 2 slices for leftovers, we demolished it. We will 100% be back. Highly recommend you try this hidden gem!

The moment you walk into the establishment, you are greeted with a smile. The menus are easy to read, with many options. Our pizza came out efficiently. They even have a spicy ranch that they offer for free. The servers were very attentive and friendly, and the establishment had a laid-back vibe. We will be coming back and trying more kinds of pizza!

Love the woodfired pizza, had a sausage and green pepper pizza. It's so good, the pizza did not make it for the ride home. I had to start eating it. It smelled so good.

I really enjoyed this place. Nothing fancy but man the food was good. Had the goat cheese app, awesome! Pizza was not huge but plenty of toppings, just was crispy. Beer was cold, I will be back. Also staff was great, everyone was smiling, you could tell they care about their food.

My husband and I were introduced to El Hornito (means little oven, I wanna say?) when the food truck was at Wabasha Brewing. St Paul has been sorely missing easy, awesome pizza since the closure of Black Sheep on Robert, and El Hornito is more than a replacement. They have your more standard pizzas, like veggie and margherita, but then they throw asada and chorizo at you and it's this brilliant Italian Mexican hybrid. The pizza's incredible.

The crust is delicious; wood fired adds a lot; the toppings are top notch. The location is modestly located in a small strip mall, but the taste of the food makes up for what the ambiance lacks. The service was on target. I've been meaning to try this spot for a long time; I'm glad I finally did. I've found my new local pizza place!
