BEST MEXICAN RESTAURANT EVER!!! 1000% recommend if you're in the area. Their location is nice, big, clean and has great vibes. The employees there were super nice and served us well even when it was very busy. The food is amazing. read more

My husband and I went for lunch. It was just okay, noting too exciting. I was disappointed in the Chili relleno, growing up in California it is always made with a poblano pepper and steak, NOT a bell pepper and ground beef. But it was lunch and I was looking for something quick and cheap. read more

The majority of the staff is always friendly and welcoming. The food is always delicious, they strive to make everything perfect for each guest. I can't believe at an establishment where all other employees have to dress professional/presentable, including kitchen staff, the hostess is permitted to wear ripped jeans - totally unprofessional. read more

Great Mexican food, great service and reasonable prices. Was there with a party of six, including two children. Waiter was extremely friendly, took our orders and returned in a short time with our orders read more

Go to spot for Mexican food. Love the chicken with jalapeño peppers and poblanos. Great salsa too

I have always preferred Mexican food that tastes authentic, and this is the place to go for it! The margaritas are really good, and you can't forget to order the queso for an appetizer. My favorite meal is the fajita quesadilla. It is enough for two people, so I always take the rest home for leftovers. The service is also great and staff friendly. Now I am craving El Campesino! read more

My mom brought me to El Campesino for lunch one (very cold) day while I was in town, and I really enjoyed it. The restaurant is nicely decorated and bright and clean. The food is great and they offer a lot of it for a reasonable price. The best part? All the vegetarian options! I love Mexican food and eat it on a weekly basis. My mother, however, hasn't had it as much. I had to explain to her the differences between a burrito, enchilada, etc. since the menu didn't specify. If you are new to Mexican food too, I would suggest asking your server to explain the menu to you or being adventurous and ordering off the cuff. The servers are very friendly so I wouldn't worry too much about it. We started off with complimentary chips and salsa- the chips are fresh and the salsa is yumtastic. I, of course, ate way too many of them. Mom ordered the Chicken Suizas Enchiladas and I got the Vegetarian Combo E- a quesadilla, bean burrito, and cheese enchilada. I also ordered a side of rice. I was a good vegetarian and called ahead to make sure the beans weren't cooked with pork (usually pinto beans are); they told me that they were not cooked with any meat and were ok for vegetarians. I was not a good vegetarian, however, and forgot to ask if any of the sauces used chicken broth. I think it would be ok since they are labeled "vegetarian combos," but you might want to double-check if you are a veg like me. The quesadilla was a little plain, but I dunked it in salsa which helped. Both the enchilada and burrito were covered in red sauce and were very good, the burrito being my favorite of the two. The rice was also good- not the best ever, but perfect for being the break I needed from all the beans and cheese. Mom really liked her lunch too. Service was a little slow, but that was fine because we weren't in a rush to be anywhere. Definitely a spot-on Mexican joint I would recommend to anyone that wants to stay away from all the chains that seem to surround the Pittsburgh area. read more

I have been to el campasino location in Monroeville numerous time and it is one if my favorite Mexican restaurants. This location did not disappoint. The appearance and decor here seems a little newer than monroeville but the space seems smaller with less seating. The staff has always been helpful and friendly. As you so at many Mexican restaurants, you get free and endless tortilla chips and salsa. The chips are always hot and fresh. I recommend the Queso cheese dip in addition to the salsa. It is extra but worth it! I always go with one of the vegetarian options but he husband always gets a burrito and we are always happy with our meals. The food is always piping hot and served quickly. I highly recommend a frozen raspberry margarita or the Coronarita (corona upside down in a margarita!). I will always come back to el campasino! read more

I have tried El Campesino a couple of times and recently ordered delivery from there. While the service was fantastic and my order arrived very quickly, the food was only ok. I got an order of chicken fajitas, a beef and bean burrito, and churros for dessert. I was underwhelmed by the chicken fajitas, the chicken was under spiced and there was surprisingly little of it in my order. The burrito was good, simple but a little bit overly salty for my taste, that said I would still probably order it again. The churros were great, crispy on the outside and soft on the inside and if I ever have a craving for churros I know now where to go. Overall, El Campesino was pretty average but I would still visit again and maybe order differently as they have a pretty extensive menu and lots of things to try! read more

First time here. Absolutely amazing food, absolutely amazing service!! Thank you! You have a customer for life!

We had an enjoyable experience for dinner last night. We wanted to watch the pens game and eat a yummy Mexican dinner at the same time so we figured this was a good choice to try. We requested to be near a tv and were sat at a booth where only one of us could really see the tv, but the food and service made up for it. At first service was a bit slow since it was busy, but once we ordered our food it did come out super fast. I ordered the enchiladas and my boyfriend got the taco, enchilada, and tostado combo. We loved the food it was all delicious. I also ordered a coronarita-yummy! We had a nice time and will be returning for sure. read more

Had dinner at El Campiseno's last night. Quaint little place located in one of the shopping plazas off of Route 19. My girlfriend and I like to sit at the bar when we go out and last night was no exception. I ordered an Amber Dos Equies and my lady got a margarita. We found the place to be very friendly. The bar keep was attentive yet kept a conversation going with the people at the bar... a conversation that we subtly got sucked into while enjoying the nacho's, sipping our drinks and looking over the menu. I decided on the tried and true #21 combo platter: one taco, one burrito and a bean tostada. My date had the #25 combo: one enchilada, one burrito, rice and refried beans. Both of our meals came out quickly and both were delicious. My overall impression of this place is high. Good quality food, fast friendly service in a very clean and comfortable atmosphere. Four stars is about right. read more

Very good Mexican food. Very reasonable pricing. Service was good the several times I have been there. Good place for families. Very spacious. Usually pretty popular. read more

This place makes some great food. Very friendly service and fresh tortilla chips make it a fun place to eat. Our kids love it as well so it's an easy night out. read more

Good Mexican spot. Very casual. Their ground beef is delicious. Usually at Mexican places it's fatty, or spicy, or greasy... El Camp's is none of the above. Food is also inexpensive! I realized today it's sometimes cheaper to order individual items instead of a combination platter... I got three items for $10.50 (combo platter 2) and my boyfriend got three individual tacos for $5.50 total. Lesson learned. 4 stars only because there's nothing that's ever "wow"-ed me about it in all my visits there. read more

I've eaten here a few times while visiting family and have enjoyed it each time. The food is always fresh, tasty, hot, and the service is prompt and friendly. I noticed on one of the Yelp reviews someone dissing on the chili relleno, but I've got to tell you I really like it. I've eaten chili rellenos all over the US and Mexico, and rarely are any two the same. (I had one in Mexico City a number of years ago that was a green pepper stuffed with ground meat, queso, walnuts, and cranberries - strange, but good). At El Camp the relleno is a ground beef and cheese stuffed green pepper- simple, but very tasty. read more

Definitely the best food I've had in this area!!! Waiter was amazing. Everything that was brought out was incredible I'm glad I stopped in here! read more

I don't come here often enough to give it 5 stars, though maybe it is close to being worthy. First and foremost, do yourself a favor at the beginning of the meal: spend the $6 and add on the cheese for your complimentary chips/salsa. This stuff is incredible. I don't know what kind of cheese it is, but the taste is a cross between creamy and Heavenly. Tonight, I got the enchiladas "suizas," and they were good, not great. They were chicken/cheese enchiladas served with rice, lettuce, sour cream. The chicken and minimal veggies rolled up all tasted a wee bit bland. Anyways, I can't comment on service because I don't come here often enough, but my guy tonight was quite nice except he didn't check on me quite enough. If you like Mexican food, you can't go wrong with this place. read more

I ordered a chile relleno, which is made with guess what? Relleno chiles. What I was served was a stuffed green bell pepper. It reminded me of the stuffed peppers my mom made when I was a kid. I didn't like them then, still don't like them now. I would have rather they explain to me they were out of the right ingredients so I could pick a different dish, but I guess they thought I wouldn't know the difference. My husband and I also ordered margaritas which were watered down. Not good Mexican food, won't be back. read more

Good authentic Mexican food went here on Valentine's day for Dinner. We actually frequent this place as we live close. They have good food the service is always good too ! Is suggest the fish tacos it's usually my goto They also have happy hour food and drink specials too. Overall a good place with some great eats and service. Maybe I'll see you there sometime read more

First off - we Love this restaurant! So was sad to see they are back to old ways of serving Luke warm food on super hot plates. New location is busy - but service is very good - I believe most people would be happy to wait a little longer to get Hot Food on warm plates. And the last couple of times we were there they are not seasoning the chicken. A little salt & pepper go a long way. Hopefully this criticism is taken as meant - well intended. read more

Second time here, this is our favorite Mexican restaurant in the area. Large portions and great food. Fast and friendly service. You can also get your food to go which is great! I love their refried beans, love their rice, love the flautas, chili verde, enchiladas, tacos and chips and salsa. My husband ate an entire bowl of the salsa and chips himself last time he went. The salsa has just the right amount of heat. The only thing that would make it better, to me, is if they had a chunkier version. When you're in the mood for some great food hit up El Campesino. You will not be sorry. read more

I have been to the Yucatan peninsula of Mexico more times than I care to count and can say with very little chance of contradiction that ALL of the El Campasino locations in Pittsburgh (Canonsburg, Robinson, McKnight Road) not only have the most authentic Mexican cuisine I have had here, their quality is excellent, their prices are more than fair and their portion sizes are practically insane. The service is friendly and expedient and the food is delicious. I personally am extremely pleased with them every time I visit one of their locations. All appear to have equal qualities of variety, taste, service and value. As I say, having been to Mexico many times, their food is not only delicious, it is genuine and authentic. I often get at least two meals out of whatever I order. They have gone a long way toward earning the five star rating I have given them. read more

El Campie!! How I love you!! Seriously excellent all around - food, service, drinks, staff, everything! The only complaint I have is that I can never get enough queso!! In all seriousness, this is an amazing place for Mexican food. I have never had anything bad here. I usually split fajitas and add an order of their corn Tortilla. Everything is always fresh, seasoned perfectly, and oh so delicious. On top of that, your food comes out lightning fast! Go here ASAP and order a medium margarita, queso, and any meal on the menu. You will not be disappointed! read more

Pretty good Mexican cuisine. Staff was friendly. Much better than the nearby Mad Mex. Value was great! Food items and drinks were very tasty! Staff was friendly! read more

I order from El Campesino at least once a month thanks to the pandemic. We actually discovered this place after the lockdown started so have never been inside, but the food is fantastic! I can't wait to be able to go check this place out in person, since we already know the food is stellar. read more

Good food, but not great. Pretty bland to what I know and have had. However, given where they are located fits in perfectly.

Great place. Food is always good and fresh. Service is always on par. Jose is fantastic and always offers a shot of tequila for desert We've been there a few times over the last week and it's always super clean. Service super friendly and fast and food is great. read more

This is the nicest of the El Camps in the Pittsburgh Area that I've been to so far. The review for food and service is the same as the Monroeville location. Great marks for both food, service and consistency. We went tonight and our waiter, Jesus, was awesome! We wanted for nothing the entire time we were there. :) He was great! (I do think its a taaaad overpriced though. Not by a gross amount, but a bit off) read more

El Campesino has wonderful Mexican food. It is more authentic than what I'd call "American Mexican" or "Tex-Mex". But that's what makes their food so great! Their chips and salsa are great - they must be freshly made as you order them. Everytime I come here I leave feeling stuffed. They also have a nice bar. Be sure to check them out! read more

Great Food , Excellent staff & Cooks. The only negative that I could think of were the screaming children at the next table. I guess this is not the fault of the management , It's more the fault of the MORON parents who thought it was a better idea to text on their I-Phones, than to tend to the nightmare children. The poor waiter had to clean up a mess that I'm sure a dozen PIG's couldn't create. I'll be back , But next time I'll be more careful where I sit. read more

Fast, kind and courteous people, and very reasonable prices. I need to try more dishes before leaving a review, but what we had seemed fresh and restaurant is clean. read more

Great restaurant. Good food. Best poblano pepper in town. Big 23 ounce dos x drafts for $3.50. How can you beat that price. This is a local family owned chain with 4 restaurants. Menu is large and very reasonable. Belly band busting dinners for 9.50 to 11.00. I love the chips. Crisp and made here. Order the hot salsa with the chips always.complimentary! Owners and staff very welcoming. Overall the food is much better than national chains but not quite Mexico City. Vote from me as best mexican in Pittsburgh! read more

I have been to many mexican restaurants in the greater Pittsburgh area and the is one of the best. I moved here from California and this is by far one of the most authentic. Most places here tend to disappoint me. I come here often with my husband and daughter. She's 3 years old and even she loves it. I have never had anything bad here and because of how often I frequent this place, I've tried a good portion of the menu. The staff is always super friendly and they are very quick with your order. They make really good margaritas as well . This is definitely one of my favorite spots! Highly recommended! read more

The food here has always been a letdown for me. It is as though nothing is made fresh other than the chips and maybe the salsa. The meat in the entrees seems as though it has been preheated and sitting in a pan of its own juices for far too long, dry but wet. The margaritas are ok, but they are just from a juice box mix. Damn it for being the only Mexican place with a liquor license within 10 miles. read more

Maybe I wasn't hungry enough, maybe my expectations were too high based on the reviews, maybe I ordered the wrong thing or maybe this place is just "A-OK" when it comes to Mexican food. I've been on a vegetarian/vegan kick lately so I got a combination platter under the "Vegetarian" options. My entree came with one cheese enchilada, chile poblano, mexican rice and re-fried beans. I wasn't blown away by any of the items but they were decent. I got most of it "to go" since like I mentioned I realized I wasn't overly hungry. But when I ate the left overs the next day I still felt underwhelmed by the meal. I am happy to report that the chile poblano had a bit of heat as well as the chips and salsa that they served complimentary with your meal. Next time I might check out a meat dish because maybe that's where I went wrong?!?! read more

With the latest temporary shutdown, we are making sure to order take-out from local restaurants that we haven't been to in a while. We chose El Campesino tonight and were not disappointed. Everything was delicious and well portioned. We loved our dinner and will definitely be back soon! Thanks so much El Campesino, great meal!!! read more
