Came in on Saturday night with a very large party and they were accommodating. Service was great, fresh chips and salsa while we waited for our food which was AMAZING. Tried a few tacos and had fajitas. Would definitely recommend this place. read more

This restaurant is not what it used to be when it first opened. The carnitas were nothing more than a couple of pieces of burnt shredded pork. The guacamole wasn't fresh. It had a dark hue to it. The tamale tasted odd. It also tasted like cloves. I had to remind the waitress that it was supposed to have melted cheese over it. It was a chicken tamale. I asked the waitress if it was white or dark meat. She didn't know what white and dark meat was. She didn't even know what chicken breast was. The waitress was nice but it doesn't warrant a visit back, ever. read more

Been there two times, the first rated four stars, the second two, therefore the average is three. The first time (4-stars) the food was fresh but the portions were VERY small. The prices seem reasonable but for the actual amount of food, they are a little pricey. The second time we walked in and said we would like to sit at the bar, order a drink and take out. One of the employees was sitting at the bar and seemed upset that he had to get up and move to let us sit down. This restaurant is located 5 miles from the Clemson Football stadium, it was a Saturday evening a big college football night. The one TV above the bar had a Hispanic movie playing. I asked the bartender if she could change the channel to something in English (we were the only customers sitting at the bar) and she said she could not. Note: The remote for the TV was sitting at the end of the bar. Our food came out, we paid and left. When we got home, the portions were even smaller than before and my shrimp tasted old or freezer burnt, they definitely were not fresh. We are not "big" eaters but we both finished and were still very hungry. This is too bad, I like supporting local privately owned businesses. I guess my wife and I will wait for Uncle Julio's to open near Ram Cat Alley. I understand it is a chain but hopefully it will be consistent. read more

Quesadillas was dry and tasteless. Paid for sour cream and pica gallo sauce which should have been included with meal. Service was not very good even though they were not busy. read more

The chips were cold so I was impressed with that but the fish was . I did like my veggies as well, but do to us arriving late we were a little rushed and they looked annoyed. Those chefs did it on the food hut waiters can use a tuning doesn't matter that your about to get off. We road workers get off late. read more

We have tried other Mexican restaurants in the area and this is by far the best. Great service and excellent food. And with the decor it feels Mexican. We will go back!! read more

Best Mexican we've had in this area. The Texas Margarita was delicious and we all enjoyed our food (Chori Pollo, Tacos and Burrito). Huge menu to choose from. Several outdoor tables but we dined inside. Salsa doesn't seem spicy at first but has a slow burn to it. Will be back! read more

Service here is great. The server alejandro is by far the best one he's always formal. The food is good and authentic. I had a burger with fries and they were both cooked to perfection read more

Great food great prices great service! Tried this place once and I know I'll be back soon! Food is so delicious and nutritious if you pay the extra for vegetables cooked into what you order. read more

Great atmosphere & decor but that's about it. The food is terrible. Nothing authentic about it. I'm from Southern California and this was not nearly even close to what I know to be great Mexican food. Just not the place folks. read more

Really nice staff. I was in my lunch break when I stopped in. Quacomole' was very good, I ordered it chunky. I made the mistake of ordering chicken burrito Mexicana and should have made it clear I don't like the shredded chicken. But that was my fault. The salsa was good. Has plenty of seating inside. Definitely will eat here again read more

Authentic Mexican dishes with fresh quality ingredients. Not the typical "Americanized" dishes covered in sauce. Clean restaurant with plenty of seating and friendly staff. Everyone at our table; 2 adults and 3 teens, agreed this is by far the best Mexican food in the area. A new favorite for our family (and friends). read more

I'm not a Mexican food specialist, but I did just move here from southern California, and there's plenty of good Mexican restaurants there. The food here was awful!!!!. The salsa was nothing more than tomato puree with very little onion and cilantro, no flavor, no chunks of vegetables, no flavor. Ordered two burritos for $10.00 each. an order of nachos, $10.00 I'm not cheap, but I expected really big burritos, and a decent amount of nachos. My wife and I were so amazed how small the portions were. And that white cheese sauce on top! YUK!!! straight from a can....Again no flavor, no spices!! For the $30.00 we spent, we should have went to Taco Bell and got the $5.00 chalupa box....Would have been better and cheaper..DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY HERE!!!! read more

Traditional Mexican that is obviously prepared fresh and with good ingredients and quality. Not the typical preparations that too many Mexican restaurants try to pawn off as "good" Mexican food these days. The tortillas were fresh and had to be homemade in house with an innocuous salsa that was probably more to the liking of the majority of Americans but too bland for me. However, the Relleno more than compensated and a young fellow named Alejandro concocted perhaps the best Margarita that we have ever drunk. Excellente!! We will certainly return. And for cred, I grew up in the Southwest and eaten Mexican food in Texas, Oklahoma, New Mexico, Arizona and California plus many times in Mexico so I know my Mexican food. read more

Very good food. Reasonably priced food and drinks. Nice selection of seafood dishes. We will return in the future.

First time last time. They get 2 stars for the food actually not being bad. It is fairly straightforward Mexican and about what you would expect. They lost 3 stars for: Sitting for 10 mins by ourselves while a table beside us was seated, given drinks and chips, and order taken. Called attention to the waitress and she said she didn't see us. She looked right at us when we sat down. Second we ordered 2 appetizers. Sat for another 10 mins and our dinner showed up. No appetizers. Service is 2 thumbs down. No manager showed up to chat and apologize and though I haven't seen my bill yet as i wrote this I bet 3 bucks it will have the appetizers on it read more

Great food and lunch me u. Served fresh and with hit plates and good service. Great value too. Will definitely go back. read more

We had Christmas Eve dinner here before church. The. Food was fast and delicious. Our waitress was amazing! We will definitely be back!

They have outstanding food and affordable pricing. The remodeled dining area is gorgeous. The only reason I did not give 5 stars is because they were slow on checkout and had difficulty reversing an erroneous charge. Other than that they are my favorite mexican restaurant in Oconee County. read more

They have really bad service, also when I ordered food they didn't give me what I had ordered. I'm really disappointed. As a Hispanic I did expect a lot more from them. read more

Have eaten here with family multiple time. Never been disappointed. Great tamales, frajitas, and special dishes. Will be back.

The food was just okay, nothing special, typical Mexican fare. BUT, the portions are tiny! Compared to the same menu item at another restaurant nearby, the portions are less than half and more expensive. Not impressed. Let's just say I don't think we will be going back. read more

I go to different restaurants every week on Friday night. Tonight my wife and I went to El portrillo, bar and grill. The food was bellow standards and the wait staff come and ask how everything is and we pointed out the problems and we got no response. People don't let the 4 star rating fool you. If you want watered down sweet tea a 12 oz steak where 4 ounces are fat and maybe 3/8 thick with 8 ounces of tasteless meat for 11.00 bucks this restaurant is for you. The texicans fighitas were way over cooked. And the beer selection is only 4 beers in bottles of brands lIke Budweiser, natural light, Coors light, and one more I can't remember. And on tap was 2 Mexican beers. My wife and I have come to the conclusion that they will never get another dollar from us read more

Have eaten lunch here 2 times. Food was really good and fresh. Service was great also. The place was clean and beautifully decorated. I would recommend this restaurant to anyone. read more

Best Mexican restaurant in Seneca! The fajitas were served steaming hot after the traditional chips and salsa which was fresh and tasty. Flan for dessert, served in generous portion. Recently remodeled dining room with colorful furnishings from Mexico. Try it! read more

This place has potential. The choripollo was very good, probably the best I've had in awhile. The service was OK, but it took awhile for the waitress to come back around and give me a refill. I found that odd since it was not a busy day. The bar area is right by the front door. Not sure why they didn't set it up a little further inside. The decor is typical of most Mexican restaurants. I guess you could say the whole place is just typical and in an area where Mexican food is very popular, they will need something that sets them apart from the more well established restaurants. read more

I'm not Mexican, but I think the food here is authentic, especially if you follow the recommendations of Ivan, the waiter. He suggested a few off-the-menu items. I tried one (the name of which I cannot recall) that I thoroughly enjoyed. It had a crispy shell and was stuffed with pieces of steak. And the margarita was oh so good! The prices are reasonable, the food is tasty and happy hour runs from 5 to 8. read more
