Fast forward to 2026 and still a fav for winder area . For Mexican food to go mostly, or I enjoy a beer at the bar while I wait, good staff, team effort, very busy, great food! Still get the Texana quesadilla or fajitas and for $11 it feeds 2 , chips salsa, creamy guac my kiddo loves. Taking them home I also split it up on plates, heat the chips in the air fryer , great meal for the family. Highly recommend!! read more

GREAT FOOD! Best queso & salsa! I stop by at least once a week for a to go order of that alone! read more

Absolutist terrible service, inconsiderate, food was terrible. Placed an order over the phone, when arrived they had no order ready and acted like they didn't even have a phone. read more

Friendly service and great food. Super margaritas. Patio dining plenty of parking. Upgraded air conditioners.

We celebrated my husband's birthday here. I was hoping that they would do something special for him but nothing (unlike other Mexican restaurants where people came out and sing and all...). Food was good, no complaint. read more

My favorite place to eat Mexican in town! My family has been coming to El Camino for several years. Having grown up in Barrow county, El Camino has been apart of Winder and Barrow county for at least 30 years now, and they are still the best place to get Mexican food. The waiter are super friendly and attentive, and because this restaurant has been apart of the Winder/Barrow community you will find many locals returning to eat her, and the waiters know us, our orders, and create the most welcoming environment in addition to have great food, and great service. read more

We always try to stop at Camino Real when we are in Winder. Not a fancy place, but their food is very good at a reasonable price. Service is good. We were there last night and got the last parking spot on the lower level. Apparently, many other people agree with me. read more

Solid Mexican food. Been there a few times. Never disappointed. Does get crowded on Fri and Sat nights.

The food, service, prices, portions and ambiance makes this the best Mexican restaurant in the area. OUTSTANDING!

This was our second time trying El Camino Mexican restaurant, and it was OK food and service. It looks like a nice place for groups.

We ordered over the phone takeout. Everything was good. The food was correct and delicious. I even added to my order when I arrived and it wasn't a hassle. My family and I love this place and will keep going whenever we want Mexican. Just keep doing what you are doing. read more

We eat here at least once per week. We come so often they already have our drinks on the table when we sit down. Food is delicious and service is always excellent. read more

The food was very good. The waiter was friendly and prompt with resupplying chips and drinks and the ambience was right out of a Mexican movie. read more

We first came in the door for a party of 6 and the waitress came from outside I guess talking to her boyfriend or whatever and she said to us wow are you guys having a party or something no need for a big crowd and we ignored the waitress and went to sit down and we waited almost 30 minutes to get our drinks and when my boyfriend went outside to check if she was outside she was she was sitting down talking to her boyfriend so me and my family went and left and on the way out she had the audacity to say y'all leavening because of me she looked young in her 20s and had black hair and clearly had no customer experience never will we be coming here again!!!!!! read more

It is so difficult to write a review for El Camino because it is such a huge part of our lives. We have been going to El Camino weekly for many years now. The food is always wonderful, but what really keeps drawing us back is the friendly service. I cannot recommend El Camino highly enough. read more

I am from California and this place reminds me of the Mexican food from San Diego, the staff are attentive and the food is amazingly delicious all the way out in Winder Georgia who would have known! I would recommend this place hands down! read more

Great service. Great food. It's fast and alway what you want. Oh yeah fire cheese dip.

Quick polite service. Tasty vegetarian lunch. Yes it was very good. Will go back again if in the area.

I have come here before and remembered the stake fajitas were awesome. This time I had a taste for some original tacos alpastor. I was so disappointed that the meat was tough and not enjoyable. The rice and beans had a mild taste of being from the previous day. The salsa was good and the red spicy sauce that came with the tacos was really good. The waiter seemed bothered when asked about the soup. read more

Dear old lady at the entrance, It costs you NOTHING to be nice to your customers. The food wasn't that great, either. What a shame. We used to love this place. We won't be back. read more

While not the 'best, this is an excellent lunch spot. The lunch portions are very large and the drinks are on point. The lunch fajita is a great deal, or about anything on the lunch menu. read more

Came in and was seated. Eventually our drink orders we taken, when they arrived one was wrong. Dinner orders placed. 15 min later the waiter comes back "what did you order?" Ordered again. 45 min after being seated the food arrived and my partner asked for a drink refill that never came until I flagged down the waiter again. Have currently been sitting for 15 minutes waiting for the check which is no surprise since he hasn't even bothered to come see if everything was ok. Ps- should the Orkin man concern me? read more

Wonderful flavors. Excellent service. We had Burrito California and Chiles El Camino. read more

We always get Togo food mostly. The steak fajitas are so yummy, we ask for our shell from the taco loco be packaged separately and they always oblige. The red tomatillo sauce is perfect. Ask for extra salsa, you only get a 4oz ramekin if you take it Togo! read more

Great food, good service. We were happy about the dinner we received and we will be back soon again.

Food and service is always good. The atmosphere is also welcoming. The margaritas are also good.

So not the best, not the worst. The customer service wasn't that great and I found hair in my food but everything else was good. Probably won't ever go back. read more

Doesn't look like we will be back cause of several things. Number one, the chips are very thick , hard, and tasteless. Number two, I had take out and I paid for a large cheese dip and got all the way home and it wasn't in the bag. Number three, how about grinding the salsa a little more, they're were large leafs of cilantro all in it. Number four, someone needs to be retrained on how to prepare a chili releno, that's not authentic. Number five, please have a website with menus you can read, they are all either fuzzy or are cut off at the bottom. read more

I have not read the other reviews but our dining experience was great. There was a huge selection of Mexican dishes and the ones we ordered were generous portions of delicious food. Topping it off, our waiter of Hispanic descent was super friendly and attentive. We were so pleased with the experience that we tipped the waiter at 33%. Normally, we tip at 20% unless the experience is especially poor or great. This was a great experience. read more

For a Mexican restaurant that is manned almost entirely by Mexicans, it is lacking in atmosphere as much as quality. The Texas fajitas were mostly vegetables, lacking in chicken, beef, and shrimp. Both the chicken and beef were chunks of meat, not even sliced into strips. There certainly wasn't a flavor of being grilled. The 3 taco supremes were anything but supreme. Large soft tortillas heavy with cheese and very light on meat, lettuce, tomato, guacamole, etc. Tamales very thick and undercooked, they were mushy and lacked flavor. The wait staff not very personable...our waiter left half way through taking our orders to placate a whining customer at another table. read more

I waited ten minutes without being seated or acknowledged, then left. Twice employees came out of the kitchen area, saw me waiting, and did an about face. There are a plethora of Mexican restaurants in Winder. I'll take my business elsewhere. read more

How this place got 3 stars I'll never know. Call me hard-headed, slow, not the sharpest tack in the pack - whatever. After giving these folks three tries, it's still not good. Unfortunately one star is as low as can be rated. My wife ordered the taco salad bowl - it came out of the kitchen swimming in some kind of grease. The waiter said it was a cheese sauce???? It smelled awful. The taco bowl looked as if it was several days old and my wife said it tasted as bad as it looked. I ordered the 4 enchiladas beef, chicken, pork and rice - only got three and they had no taste. The chips and salsa they bring to the table - they should have been in the garbage. Do, if you're in Winder Ga and looking for Mexican good, do yourself a favor and find somewhere. read more

Food was great, but service was not too great our waiter came twice to our table ask us what we wanted and again to give us the check. Not sure if we will go back. read more

I used to frequent this place and still visit there other restaurant it the last 3or 4 times there was a horrific odor and lots of flies. It made me queasy. read more

Best mexican food in the area .... great service .... low prices.... large portions ... what more could you ask for????

We were passing through to go to Athens. Great service, margaritas, food. Would highly recommend this hole in the wall. read more

Why do these restaurants act like they suddenly don't speak Spanish when you point out the dish is not what you ordered and they act like you don't know what the menu describes? Blows their mind I suppose when the white wasp begins talking in their language; suddenly they don't know their native language either!!!! The food is decent but points off for cheating on the food. read more

Loved it Mexican lunch special great place good service. Some of the best Mexican food I have had in a long time. Steak was tender and juicy. read more

El Camino Mexican Restaurant - Bisteck a la mexicana! - Mexican Near Me - Winder, Georgia

We came here because it is always packed on the weekends. We thought it must be pretty good to be so busy. Quite a lot of food for the money, but all of it lacks flavor. To start, their salsa lacks any flavor and looked like tomato juice with 3 chucks of onion. I ordered a tamal and 2 enchiladas. The tamal was okay but stuffed with VERY little pork, the enchiladas were relatively flavorless and their sauce was bland. Their rice tastes like steamed white rice. My fiance ordered a chimichanga and it was a sad excuse for fried. It was wet and limp. He said the chicken was decent quality, it was just under seasoned. If you're looking for a Mexican restaurant that has little flavor and is bland for your grandmother that can't do salt or spice this is perfect. If you're looking for flavor, pass this one up. read more
