El Matador

Waiter's and waitress are great

Came here for lunch and was not very satisfied. Sub par Mexican food. The enchiladas were meh. Salsa and guacamole were okay. I would try a different Mexican restaurant in the area next time.

fajitas were awesome. Service was quick

The best pork chili verde in the country!!

Awesome service amazing food unmatched atmosphere.

Food great! Beer selection fantastic! Service great! Atmosphere perfect! Salsa hot!!😁👍

A couple of friends recommended El Matador to me, so I decided to give it a shot. I have to start with their chips and salsa—seriously, from the moment I tried the salsa, I knew they had recommended a good spot. It had a super fresh taste and the perfect amount of spice. Our waitress, Michelle, was friendly, attentive, and provided us with great service throughout the meal. I ordered the Chimichanga with shredded beef, and it was delicious! The beef was flavorful, and the chimichanga had a nice crisp to it. It came with rice and beans, though I found the rice a bit underwhelming. Overall, it was a great experience, and I would definitely come back.

Best carnitas in town

Was great!!

Hands down, THE best shredded chicken taco I’ve ever had, paired with their house salsa , keeps me coming back every Tuesday for the deal.

Always good quality and good service.

We love coming here to eat its an excellent place to get your Mexican food fix AND they are NOT stingy with the chips and fresh salsa gotta love that !

I loved this place. We had dinner and drinks.
