The food is flavored good, the salsa is runny and chunky which I don't like as much as a nice smooth salsa. The service is hit and miss but a majority of the time you almost have to go get your own refill and to go boxes yourself. Also the check is unreadable so u sit at the cash register watching someone punch in the prices so fast you hope you're not getting cheated so I don't like that the most. Also if you get anything to go with white cheese sauce on it you're lucky to find any cheese when eating and you get much more product eating inside. The ambiance is good they have a lot of new flooring and artistic designs if they just cared about their food more this could be a better place I have ate here often and sometimes you are happy and sometimes your not eating here is my opinion. read more

My Wife and I ate there last night (10/29/2024) and the food was great! I had the Big Burrito, and my wife had the Chicken Chimichangas. We had a very nice waitress who visited our table several times to see if we needed anything. Very pleasant time and great prices. Will definitely go back if we have the chance. read more

I used to brag that we had the best Mexican Restaurant in the county right here in Lebanon. But, in the past couple of years the quality has gone way down and we don't go there anymore. I've heard complaints that they don't speak fluent English, but to me that should be a good sign, one that tells us they know how to cook this food. But, something has gone drastically wrong. Fortunately we we have a new Mexican family restaurant business with locations in both Castlewood and Abingdon. read more

This used to be a very good Mexican Restaurant. Sadly, a few months ago, something changed and our last two visits were not good. That's sad since they have recently totally remodeled and its looks much better, but the food quality is now very poor and inconsistent. Service is okay but most servers barely speak english, if at all. read more

I have no idea how they are even still in business. 0/5 never recommend. From a local, don't eat here. Bad food. Dirty restaurant. The staff is also highly rude and perverted and makes women feel VERY uncomfortable. Just bad bad bad. read more

So Yelp has two listings for El Campesino. Same phone number different addresses. Call, ask 'em what their address is and they hang up on me. Call again and they refuse to pick up the phone. Unreal!!! read more

Yes my wife and I had a wonderful experience with the restaurant and we absolutely love the food and the atmosphere was very friendly and welcoming. We will definitely go back soon read more

By far the worst Mexican food I've ever seen. The chicken looked so slimy I couldn't eat it. The vegetables were turning brown and rotting. Asked for water and got something brown with stuff floating in my glass. Ruined appetite, nothing on my plate was touched and was still charged full price. The owner of the restaurant didn't seem to care as he spent the entire time walking around the store on the phone. I will never be returning. Worst service and food I've ever seen. read more

Great Food Great Service. Love this place. Great Atmosphere. I do wish they had come to Lebanon

This place used to be a bit off, but now, it's my favorite restaurant in lebanon. My wife wants to go here everyday and that's understandable. The food is pretty typical Mexican food, but they recently renovated the building, the staff is always great (as long as your nice to them), and the price is very reasonable. This, Tokyo, and bonanza are definitely worth your try if you're in lebanon. Read my other reviews on those restaurants if you'd like! read more

This is standard cheap Mexican, don't expect anything special. A few dishes are surprisingly bad but most are edible. What can be said is that service us EXTREMELY fast, it'll blow your socks off, but then again any dish you will order is meat on a tortilla or chips with a squirt of beans, guacamole, or some iceberg lettuce, so everything is essentially premade, but slopped together once you order it. Good dishes are the fajitas which cone out hot and sizzling, or the spicy nachos. read more

Absolutely horrible place to eat !!! Waited over thirty minutes just to receive drinks. After the manger had come over and was absolutely disrespectful and cussed us up and down the whole time there. He then proceeded to grab his area while my young niece was at the table !!!!!! Kept threatening to take the confrontation out to the parking lot. Food could easily been better. Just overall horrendous service !!!!! Would definitely not recommend to anyone!!!!!! read more

Just can't seem to find Mexican food that we like in this area. To start, the salsa was very bland. I got the taco salad and hubby got two chorizo quesadillas with rice. The beans in my salad looked disgusting. It really made me lose my appetite. The chicken was flavorless too. Hubby said his wasn't bad. Thankfully we didn't need anything because once we got our order, we never saw our waiter again. Literally. We found him sitting in the other room by the cash register where we had to ask him for our bill just to pay. Oh and the walls beside our table were nasty! I was afraid to let my son touch them at all!! I would give only one star except hubby didn't find it too appalling. I personally won't go back. read more

I have to admit, I really enjoyed this place. I tried the carnitas, delicious. The nacho's with beef fajita meat (don't remember the exact name), delicious. Just a basic plate with a taco, enchilada, burrito, rice & beans, guess what... delicious. I find it hard to believe that in Hampton Roads Virginia it is almost impossible to find good Mexican food, yet here in little ol Lebanon you can get some damn good Mexican grub. Honestly, I don't think you can go wrong with anything you order. read more

See all

Please don't eat here people are getting really sick from their food.Several members of my family had to go to the ER after eating here.The place is nasty and the food is not well cooked. read more

Horrible food, not authentic at all. I grew up in Los Angeles and I know what authentic Mexican food is. This place seems like there just trying to make a buck off cheap food no flavor. I can make better in my kitchen! read more

I personally enjoy this restaurant. Their food is always great, especially their salsa. If you like shrimp, I suggest the shrimp quesadilla. I've always had a good experience eating here. Staff is very nice. The establishment is very nice and well kept. I recommend this restaurant. read more

Coming from southern California, where you get real and fresh Mexican food at the drop off a hat, this is nothing special in the slightest. If you crave Mexican, this will not fill the void. Most recent, and rare visit, since it has been years from the last time I ate here, was mediocre. The rice and beans were so bland and lacking flavor, I had a tamale which was nothing but a brick of Masa and a couple agreed of beef. My combo also included an enchilada which was flat, barely any meat (ground beef, yuck), no cheese, and in a flour tortilla not corn. This is definitely not a place I would recommend. read more

A MAN TRIED TO POISON US. Okay, so the food was alright, the salsa, chips, and cheese dip didn't really have much of a taste but my quesadilla was alright. The real problem was when we kindly asked a man for fried ice cream and he rudely rolled his eyes and went to the back. A few minutes later he emerged with a bowl of some white stuff, which was obviously not ice cream. We took a bite and it was bitter and freezing cold and disgusting. If I had to guess it was their cheese dip cold. But the real kicker is the EXTREMELY RUDE man who gave it to us stood and watched us take a bite and laughed at us!!!! Luckily he didn't add it to the bill but I will NEVER eat here again. And PLEASE DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY EATING HERE!!!!!!!! read more

I've eaten quite a few dishes from this place, and they've all been great. The food is prepared very quickly, and the staff are all friendly if you take the time to talk to them. I'd absolutely recommend this place for your lunch hour. read more

We ate at this restaurant on 8/6/16. From the time we walked in the door the waiter was extremely rude. He got our drink order wrong and one of the items I ordered. He then argued with me about what i ordered. Although the food was good, i will NEVER be back here again. read more

The tacos were fantastic, both soft and hard! I recommend the chicken ones over the beef. The food came out so quickly!!! Also the cheese dip is delicious! The only thing I didn't like was the guacamole. read more

The chips and salsa were 2/5. Flavor good, mild heat. Salsa was the runniest I have ever seen. Very hard to eat. Lettuce took on the taste of refrigerator. Uck. Waiter kinda rude. I don't think he likes people. Refried beans were diluted with...oil? Meh... The place is fast, cheap, unpersonable, food=so so. For the price ok. Will I be back. No thanks. Good luck! read more

I love this place! We are a resident of Lebanon and this is the best mexican restaurant in the surrounding counties. They have great food, great service and they make you feel right at home! We have become great friends with the friendly staff! I highly recommend! read more
