My husband and I were sick this week, so we decided to order food for delivery: Yesterday, we chose El Asadero. We ordered a dish called the "Asadero Steak," which came with grilled steak, quesadillas, charro beans, grilled cheese, and vegetables. Everything was delicious--just like home-cooked food. Fair prices and generous portions. We will definitely be ordering from here again! Blessings and congratulations to the entire restaurant team! read more

Eaten here twice. Foods good, drinks are good, but it's honestly kind of a rip off. Prices are crazy and they automatically add 20% tip to the bill regardless of table size. read more

Mexican food with entertainment is a plus. I sat at the bar, had some wine, and met some thespians. The mariachi band performed all through the huge restaurant. It was a lot of singing while waiting for my food. Steak cooked perfectly, small portion of mashed potatoes and vegetables. The chicken nachos were mediocre. The bartender advised I use the guacamole and sauce but it didn't help. read more

Food was outstanding, Service was great. We had 3 Tacos plates (4 on each plate, small tacos- look at my pictures), Large Salad and some Guacamole and chips. 1 beer and 3 drinks, bill was a little high for what it was. Overall it was a good experience, good food and outstanding service. Wait, I figured it out, it was pricey because the live mariachi read more

This place is a nice place for authentic Mexican food. This is a great spot for authentic drinks and nice ambient. They have an awesome Mariachi band on Friday's which goes around the tables and they would play any song that you want. Only reason I am giving a four star is due to the fact that service was a bit slow for a Friday night. When my wife and I visited this place was for outdoor seating on a Friday and the service was lacking. I will give it another try since food and drink were amazing. read more

I really don't like giving average reviews but from my experience it was very basic. My friend and I got chicken tacos and they were flavorful. The chips were nice and warm but the salsa was mild and average. My least favorite was the margaritas, they were from a frozen machine and not authentic. I definitely will not be back here for happy hour. Also, the location is a bit sketchy, the decorations are very nice. read more

This place was terrible. The burrito had hair in it. I pulled a long string of hair. Also the burrito had only rice in it . There was no guacamole in the burrito. The salmon wasn't cook , they practically dip it in water and put it in the plate. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY OR TIME. They don't even deserve a star read more

The food here was pretty good, but the reason for the one star was the service. We were the only ones inside when we sat down. When we got our drinks we asked for chips and salsa and after about 20 minutes we got chips. We ordered our food and asked about happy hour and the waitress said the passion fruit margarita was not part of it. So we ordered 2 happy hour classic margaritas. When we got our food the waitress asked if we wanted another round since happy hour was about to finish so we did. Then when we asked for our bill she brought over the credit card machine to swipe the card which only showed the total price. We asked for a paper bill and she said "oh you'll get it later". She swiped the card printed the paper bill and left. Since we were still drinking our margaritas we stayed talking not thinking of checking the bill. But as we sat there we noticed all the margaritas were priced the same, so we called the waitress and asked if she forgot to put the happy hour price. She said we never ordered the happy hour margaritas, this was a shock to my boyfriend and I as we clearly had asked her about it and she had even reminded us that happy hour was about to end. She said the price could not be changed and offered us a free round of margaritas. We told her we did not want anymore margaritas, and we asked for the manager. She said there was no manager there, so we couldn't talk to anyone else and nothing could be done. At this point I didn't even care about the money, it was the waitress attitude that was so disrespectful and unapologetic or regretful of her mistake. It is sad to say I will never go back to this place not because of the food but because of the awful waitress. read more

This place is amazing, between a lot of places we've been to , especially during Covid-19 where some restaurant experiences fell through, the outdoor ambience you can't beat, the drinks amazing and not watered down, as for the food... good authentic mexican food, Go for the enchiladas the chicken one, you can't go wrong, always packed and open till past midnight makes the place to go to! The service is top, and so is the pricingYou won't regret it. read more

lunch special was mediocre - burrito had no sauce or flavor, tostones had no taste, didnt get a refill on my drink and service was slow. best part of lunch was the yellow rice. not good. dinner, way better. Pulled pork tacos were juicy with a flavorful green and red sauce. burritos were also nice. good size and flavors. read more

Everything was nasty my mothers food was cold and asked to reheat it as they did not because they let it sit out and brought back the food cold my niece got a cheeseburger the cheese was not melted correctly and neither was the patty and there was a hair in my food I did not complain though read more

I called to reserve a table for 7 people to which the hostess said sure no problem. Waited 30 mins and nothing. Went inside to confirmed and was told everything was in order only to call 20 mins later and was informed my reservation was cancelled. read more

Food was terrible, and soo expensive. Waitress recommended us some specials but ... didn't taste special. Felt frustrated when we left

Very nicely decorated but the food is often not well cooked. Sometimes would be dry but sometimes it's very good. I would recommend the Molcajete, it brings lots of meat just make sure to let them know how cooked you'd like it. read more

Love the ambience . Staff is friendly . Guacamole is fresh and so delicious . Drinks were sooo good and well priced . Sides could use more flavor and the Churrasco steak was over seasoned. Chicken was great. Would come again! read more

We arrived at 8:03pm walked out at 10:43pm (food arrived by 10:30pm). If you can't accommodate a large group during pandemic then don't take them! Manager gave us 30% off because we wanted to cancel. Bringing all the food home with us because we were that frustrated. I would honestly give this place zero stars if i could. Save yourself the headace read more

I was at the outdoor dining on 7/18/20. I had a bad experience here. When I arrived the menus were just being passed around every table without being disinfected. The alcoholic beverages tasted like straight up juice, no alcohol. The food arrived 1hr and a couple of minutes later and on top of that they had it wrong, and had to wait 30min more for them to fix it and bring a new order. They didn't provide enough napkins. The food was salty, to be specific the red chilaquiles. Everything was over priced. This place is focused on over charging and making money. They don't care about the quality of the food they serve or the customer. $200 for a party of 4!!!!!! Never coming back. There's definitely better out there. read more

Started coming to this spot few months ago and keep coming back with friends the food is always fresh and great !! Service is the best! I have ordered el molcajete it's a plate that has everything for two people nopales tacos rice beans soooo good oh yeah and the churros are amazing I'm from Los Angeles and it took me back to when I was a kid my dad used to take me to east los to get churros fresh. So don't forget desert churros enjoy! read more

We stopped here on Valentine's Day since everything else was packed. I guess that should of been a sign. It is very dark in there. They had a singer the night we were there and he was good it was just so loud. We literally had to scream at eachother all night. We were seated in the empty restaurant and waited for 10 minutes before anyone came over to get our drink orders. I got a margarita that had so much sours in it I literally had sores on my tongue before I got halfway through it! We started off with guacamole for an appetizer and it was pretty good. Next we ordered our entrees. My fiance and I both ordered the mixed fajitas. 20 minutes later his food came out but mine was no where. When the server came over 10 minutes later we asked about it and she said it was cooking still when she clearly had forgotten about it. Finally another 20 minutes later and now with my fiance's food being cold my food arrived. The fajita meat was okay but nothing special. I would not order it again. Even though we ordered the same thing we somehow got different rice and beans then one another. My beans looked like they ran out and added water to them. The worst part of our experience was they tried to charge us full price for everything!! Ridiculous. After being confronted on how absurd that was, they finally took my meal off. I was really disappointed in our experience, I feel like it could of been a cool place. read more

Food was nothing special, drinks were okay, as well as service. Had a reservation for outside but was told they couldn't seat us outside once we got there and that it was going to be a long wait if we wanted outside??? Overall it was just okay and I won't be back. read more

Sad, this was my absolute favorite restaurant but it has become so disappointing these past few months. Menu prices are increased substantially and the service isn't the greatest anymore. What came to be my favorite restaurant to spend weekends on turned to somewhere I will no longer go to. read more

This place was okay, very overpriced. They don't give free refills on watered down sodas. Service was eh! Waiter was speaking in Spanish, didn't stop to think that maybe everyone does not speak Spanish even though we did. We ordered the meat bowl for two. It was good. They give you a scoop of rice and a teaspoon of beans. We didn't order alcoholic beverages. Bill was $122. This was for my husband and myself. They include 20% tip in the bill so beware. read more

The food is disgusting and i found hair in my plate. I told the waiter about the situation, looks like she didn't like it and gave me such a bad service, it wasn't about the money because i paid the entire bill, just told her the kitchen need to be careful. First and last time, I wouldn't come here again. read more

great food and great Margaritas made by a nice employee Cristiano. Will definitely go again with my friends.

Muy bueno todo! Lo recomendaría siempre. La comida es súper fresca y deliciosa. Las meseras Andreína y Clarita fueron muy atentas y profesionales. read more

Family owned restaurant, they just opened up and were very busy. The manager came to the table a couple of times and even gave us free tacos for the food taking too long. Which I didn't mind I was talking and catching up with friends. Everyone was very friendly and polite and the food was very well plated and everything looked very clean. If you want authentic Mexican food this is a good place. read more

Every time I've stopped for lunch they have been very attentive, food is delicious, and the atmosphere is very pleasant and comfortable. I highly recommend the ribs (cooked to perfection), the rotisserie chicken (very well seasoned), and a traditional mexican drink. "Agua de Jamaica" is my favorite! Cada vez que he almorzado aquí, siempre han sido muy atentos y serviciales, la comida es deliciosa y la atmósfera es muy cómoda y placentera. Recomiendo las costillas (cocinadas a la perfección), el pollo asado (deliciosamente adobado) y una tradicional agua mexicana. Mi preferida es la "Agua de Jamaica". read more

Pretty good but why when I order enchiladas the meat comes separate??? I've never seen that before.

I love this place ! The food is delicious , good drinks (you have to try the "Micheladas" ) The DJ likes old Spanish music from the 80's and later in the night there's live music with excellent artists (you want to get up and dance!) . The service is good and fast. The waitresses are very nice and polite. I'll definitely coming back. read more

Stopped in for lunch today at 12:30. Only a handful of diners. They just opened and don't have a lunch menu yet. Go figure. Open for lunch but no lunch menu. Service was very slow. Waiter got the drink orders wrong. Then I think I got the wrong tacos. Ordered carnitas but it sure didn't look or taste like braised pork. They will need to get their act together. The buildout looks expensive and a bit prop heavy. Will try again. But will give them time to get things organized. read more

On the app it states it's available for delivery for a $2+ charge. I waited over an hour for my food to find out that they do not deliver. I'm high upset and will not be ordering from here. read more

Excellent place... delicious food... I like to go on Saturday and Sunday to listen to good music with Hector Villa and Janet read more

Best fish tacos ever!!! Not only was our waitress excellent she was knowledgeable on all the drinks specials. Highly recommend it.

This was my second time ordering from them and last. Delivery came 25 min late. Food was cold and soggy. Never again.

They hung up on me! Ordered delivery with "no bacon" they put me on hold to investigate and suddenly they phone was disconnected. Called back and the restaurant pretended to speak "no English" and hung up on me after putting me on hold. Disgusting behavior. It's understandable that people make mistakes but to pretend not to speak English and hanging up on me after I speak to someone saying eating bacon is againt my religion is gross! read more
