We always order to go and the food is always good. Believe it or not, but the bean and cheese burrito is an awesome menu item! We've also ordered the carne en salsa verde and really liked that. Plus their chips and salsa are also very tasty. read more

I tried the chile relleno with enchilada, rice and beans! Super delicious, super friendly and welcoming staff, overall super fast! Excellent work guys! Reason I gave it 4 stars out of 5 is because the Mexican food tasted a bit Americanized in my opinion, but still very delicious ! read more

El Campanario Restaurant - Mold on tortilla chips. Unsatisfactory customer service. I was not even given an apology just an I don't know what to tell you". - Mexican Near Me - Indio, California

Do not order the tacos de pescado. Instead of fish fillet they give you what looks like fish sticks. Also wouldn't recommend going in the even towards close time because the food is no longer fresh. I got some beans that were dry and flakey. I was genuinely surprise given the food is usually great here. Now I know though. read more

The trio fajitas was disgustingly salty. The services was not that great. My first time coming here was okay okay services. My second time was just horrible, I asked for a water an lemon. The server just ignored me. He kept speaking in Spanish, not paying attention to me. I'm very disappointed that im being treated differently because I'm not Mexican an can't speak Spanish. read more

Order: Campechana ( octupos, crab meat, shrimp, avocado and tender scallops. Shrimp was not deveined. So as not to disturb the integrity and structure of shrimp and keeping it whole, they could've used a toothpick procedure to eliminate the eating of "Shrimp Shit"!! Very disappointed on Campanarios not paying attention to detail The service was awesome! Owner/ manager is hands on and served me my order. Overall deserves @ 2nd visit. Order will be the molcahetes redemption stay tuned... read more

El Campanario Restaurant - Mexican Near Me - Indio, California

VERY DISAPOINTING!!! I was recommended by a friend to try this place even thought the reviews are not that good. It was my husbands 55th birthday and we are new to town. We were so excited by reading the reviews. I told the hostess when we arrived it was a special day and she said she would tell our server. Once sat I also told a bus boy quietly the same. Our dinner came, we even ordered desert. NOTHING. Not even a mention of a special day, NOTHING. When I left I told the hostess what a disappointment the experience was and that I would never come again for a special occasion or recommend! She looked puzzled, but didnt apologize either. Maybe they dont do anything for special occasions but thats not what i was told and they should have said something upon arrival. read more

Food is very delicious. Service is fast and cordial. Atmosphere is pleasant. Truly recommend this authentic Mexican restaurant.

Never going back, they may or may not remember us from today. Servers tried, but there is no way that they could cover up the fact that the food was not good. It seemed old, more than 5 of our family members seem to have got food poisoning including me. The rest have stomach aches and feel nauseated. We were there to celebrate my dad for his Early Dia de Los Padres. He had a recent diagnosis of cancer so he may not be around for next year's holiday. His aguachile was good and shrimp ceviche was fair. The corn Tortillas were good. Everything else was trash. It's hard to critique and write this, since this is owned by Mexican family but we like to be fair and warn others. A wet burrito got my brother-in-law sick, the shrimp ceviche got my sister and 2nd brother-in-law ill. The tiny menudo got my sister still sick and it's 10:15 p.m. this was a 1:00 p.m. luncheon. My little nice said her quesadilla tasted weird and she refused to eat it. We are not delicate at all, my fat ass will eat and does eat a lot of Mexican food. To call this "Authentic Mexican" is a joke! I got sick on the so called mole; a half a chicken breast that was cut in half, beat to death, grilled, dried up and covered in fake "mole". The beans we noticed were sour, rice seems to come from Rice a Roni box. Ice tea was good, chips salty, salsa ok. My dad is ok, thank God. Everyone pretty much said it was the worst Mexican food they have tried including my 14 year old niece. Good luck with the business! Make some changes, people giving it 5 stars must not know good Mexican food and yellow cheese is not authentic more like a sacrilegious. Peace read more

I really wanted to like this place as the reviews seemed good. Food was just ok with the carnitas I ordered being dry and not very flavorful. Service was a bit slow. read more

One of my favorite Mexican restaurants in the Coachella Valley. My husband and I are regulars and have been coming since 2012. This is a very family oriented place and the staff are great! The food is amazing hands down. read more

El Campanario Restaurant - Enchiladas Rojas De Pollo, rice, and lettuce. - Mexican Near Me - Indio, California

Never going back again, I made a reservation for a family dinner at the end when it was time to pay we were told that one of the family members that came with us had not paid so we were charged for their bill we then ended up finding out that they double charged us, on top of that some of us were charged the same items on the different receipt... We went to go ask why we were getting charged for something that was already paid for and they claimed they charged us twice as a joke... also forgot to mentioned they made a 19 year old pay for beers ... ON TOP OF ALL THAT MESS the owner was rude, didn't want to refund us & was causing a scene ... IF YOU EVER GO EAT HERE MAKE SURE YOU CHECK YOUR RECEIPT BEFORE YOU LEAVE !!!!! VERY UNPROFESSIONAL BUSINESS MANAGEMENT !!!! read more

I had high hopes for this restaurant, but was very disappointed with the food and service. I see others have rated this very high, but alas it was not for me and my party. read more

I was in town for the Indian Wells tennis tournament. Making reservations here were quick and easy. I was a little surprised by the venue--I assumed it would be nicer, but it looks like it was taken over from a diner and never changed. Our service was awesome and the food was delicious. I was even complimented by my father-in-law and my husband on this "great find." read more

Stopped here on a long drive Wow so good Building looks like an old Denny's or Carrows but the food was amazing service great and of course can not beat an $11 cazadores cadillac margarita in the 100 degree weather read more

The food and service was very quick we got seated right away and drinks were taken by the hostess a gentleman brought the drinks over and then right away someone came over with chips and salsa I was very pleased with the speed of service and the food was just as tasty we had two items fajitas which we are very specific and difficult to order because we want them a certain way and they did it 100% without question and my father loved them they were delicious my mother and I split a combination plate dinner with taco and enchilada an extra taco the tacos were crisp and fresh as we had ordered the crunchy tacos and the enchilada was to die for the sauce was tasty the rice and beans were good traditional refried beans the rice was different than other Spanish style rice and I've had previously but it was good with no complaints the restaurant was clean and look very presentable even though it was very busy and has a full bar it was not loud or overbearing it had a very nice basic ambiance keep it up and we will be back read more

Arrived with a large group, food was good and the group ordered Posole, tacos, molcajete, etc. I ordered fish tacos with beans and salad. My tacos and beans were good. The salad they served was terrible-lettuce was browning, onions were soggy, and cucumbers were so soft-all was inedible. I brought this to the attention of the staff and the server said that it's "all the salad they served..." seriously? That should NEVER have been put on a plate. Doubt that I will return. read more

El Campanario Restaurant - Mexican Near Me - Indio, California

We got to our timeshare resort in Indio near 10 pm, and even though it was Friday night there didn't seem to be many places still open. At least that's what the lady told us at the desk. She recommended El Campanario, saying she'd only had a margarita there. But it was open, so off we went. I wasn't expecting it to look like a former Bob's Big Boy, with booths and a diner ambiance, but if the food is good... And it was open. My Yelp tip said that it seemed authentic, and I guess it was. I had a guava margarita, which tasted good, though I don't think there was a scintilla of alcohol in it. I followed that up with the Torta Ahogada - a carne asada sandwich on a big torta roll. I was about a quarter through it when I realized that a) I asked for the sour cream on the side, but it was glopped onto the middle of the sandwich and b) the "very spicy sauce" of the menu description was nowhere to be found. Questioning the waiter elicited the amazing response that he didn't think I'd want it, since it was very spicy and was poured all over the sandwich. WTF??? Was he my mommy?? Not only that, but I was speaking non-gringo Spanish to him the whole time, so why would he assume that I wouldn't want it the way it's served? Besides, "torta ahogada" means "DROWNED SANDWICH!" Talk about racial profiling!! My husband, the real gringo, had fajitas, which came with the usual accompaniments, including some tasty guacamole, but without any of the sizzling sound effects. He liked it well enough. Despite the omissions with my torta, the service was very good, and the food was decent. But not quite good enough to warrant a second visit. read more
