Yelp did its job, as usual. We were seated immediately and the restaurant has a great vibe - comfortable seating, nice decor, and spotlessly clean. Our waiter was very attentive and gracious. We ordered the fresh guacamole as a starter and enjoyed a burrito platter and an enchilada platter (with rice and beans). Delicious flavor and huge portions The only real surprise was the fried topping on the guacamole. I think they were pork rinds... we tried a few but elected to go old school with tortilla chips.

The girl taking orders was not very friendly, wore gloves, but touched EVERYTHING after she spooned it into the bowl. Looked like the gloves hadn't been changed for a long time. She seemed annoyed that they were busy and had a line of customers. The assembly line was very messy *yes they were busy* but they made no attempt to keep the line clean. The girl at checkout seemed annoyed that she was working and didn't even tell me my total owed, just pointed to the screen. The guacamole was delicious, but my bowl with chicken was beyond salty. I couldn't eat it because it was over the top salty. Things have definitely changed and I was very disappointed with my visit and the food

After eating here 5 times, and trying many different menu items, I just cannot recommend "El Camp." The place has that divey kind of feel. It is not well ventilated (from a HVAC standpoint), and in winter is absolutely freezing. It just needs to close for a major renovation. The food is okay, but not predictable. I really like the enchiladas in mole sauce, but the chicken is usually cold. The sides are institutional-bland, and everything needs a healthy dash of cilantro. The salsa is very good, and tastes homemade. read more

Most of the time when you order this it is a white queso with some chorrizo, pico, and other veggies in a deep dish. Here, it was kind of that, but it came on a cast iron plate with a good mound of pico, chorrizo, and veggies on it, but the shallow plate toasted the cheese and kept everything hot. The flour tortillas were good. Be sure to scrape the toasted cheese off the bottom of the pan. My wife had the #9 combo. It had a flauta, chili relleno, and a quesadilla with shredded beef. The flauta was, of course, fried, but the chicken was overdone, bordering on burned. The chile relleno was not a poblano pepper stuffed with cheese, dipped in batter and fried, which she expected having grown up in El Paso, but looked to be a green bell pepper covered in cheese. I had the steak burrito supreme. (Normally, when I think "Burrito Supreme" I think of Taco Bell, and this was much better, of course.) The sauce was very good and the charro beans were good as well. Pam had a strawberry daiquiri, and I had a margarita. Both were very tasty and a good strength. It was our first time there. We'll be back to try some of the other offerings, but we'll almost certainly get the queso.

We were greeted by a couple of small children, one was just walking through the place, and the other was in a walker toy strolling about, sometimes watching tv, sometimes screaming loudly because no one was paying it any attention. We didn't think much of it, so we quietly waited to be seated by an adult. We were sat at our table, placed our drink order, and perused the menu. It was a really strange mix of varying cuisines. A couple of us ordered Mexican dishes, while one was brave and ordered pizza. We tasted our soft drinks only to find they were all very "flat," lacking carbonation. I alerted the waitress to the issue, she didn't seem surprised at all. She quickly offered us Pepsi in a can. The food then came, the pizza was definitely a frozen grocery store pizza. Not nice at all! The taco salad was made with minced beef, like a pizza topping, not seasoned ground beef. The other couple did not mind their Mexican dishes, as they ate them all. They did add that they would not return here on our next trip through town. So, long story short, do yourself a favor and avoid this place!
