El Rodeo Reviews (75)
I started going to this location after the one on Beck Ln closed and I love it! While the prices are a little higher than anticipated, it is well worth it!
My parents and I ordered takeout here while passing through the area. The taco salads were huge and delicious. We got chicken, ground beef, and steak. The meat was tender and tasty, the veggies were fresh and plentiful, and the taco shell was crispy and savory. Plus, the time from placing the order until pickup was pretty short--only about 20 minutes!
My wife and I are visiting the area and wanted to check out some local restaurants. We were in the mood for some Mexican and were looking for something close to the hotel. We found this place and thought we'd give it a try. It wasn't bad at all, though after the first visit I'd probably have rated it 3.5 stars. When we got in, we waited a few minutes before being seated, and a few more minutes before drink orders were taken. We waited a few minutes more still to be given menus. After that, the waitress checked up on us often and my drink cup never went empty. I had the Pollo A La Plancha. The nacho cheese sauce was good, with a slight kick to it that was more spicy than I care for but most other people would say it had no heat to it at all (I'm not good with spicy, what can I say?). The dish tasted delicious overall, and the portions were very generous. The 3 tortillas I got on the side with my meal were a bit dried out and hard to eat, so I did not finish them. The chips and salsa - well, I explained about the heat earlier so I only slightly tasted the salsa on one chip, lol. I asked for a salt shaker and ate the rest of my chips plain with salt sprinkled on them (I do this at every Mexican restaurant we go to). I'd definitely go back, as there was a lot on the menu that I'd love to try.

Went here for my brother's birthday. It's his favorite Mexican restaurant in town. It was my first time here. Service was very good. Waiter was very friendly and food came out hot and in a timely manner. They did mess up my brother's order, but corrected it quickly. The food was good. They brought out a free ice cream dessert for my brother when they found out it was his birthday. Noticed that a lot of the patrons seemed to be regulars. I think that's always a good sign...lots of regulars who clearly enjoy the place, the service and the food.
