Visited here on a vacation to Myrtle Beach, it was outstanding. My boyfriend and I had to go back. We went twice in the span of 3 days!! It is delicious food. We had the shrimp tacos (10/10), enchiladas (10/10), and carnitas (10/10). We also had their complimentary chips and salsa which is SO GOOD. This restaurant is overall great, ambiance, variety, decor, and service is wonderful. Manager is involved and inviting, both waitresses we had were lovely women, recommended items to us, and made it a complete experience! Waitresses were Paulina and Samantha Will be back the next time we visit! read more

I just realized I wrote this review for the location on 29th avenue and the different El Cerro locations have their own yelp review page, so I wanted to make sure this location got the credit. Here is the review: I went to the new El Cerro at 108 S Kings Hwy, Myrtle Beach SC for lunch today with my daughter and son in law. Their flight back home was cancelled yesterday due to the weather, so we were enjoying a bonus day. Nice casual atmosphere and we were very happy with the service. Very friendly and attentive. The food was great and I thought it was reasonably priced. They both had margaritas that they said were really good also. It was my first time at El Cerro and based on that experience, I will definitely go back. read more

We stopped here for lunch on the way to check out the beach and it was really good. We were surprised the reviews weren't better as the food we had was excellent. I had the chicken and mango quesadillas and hubby had fajitas and we thought both were fantastic. Our waiter was friendly and the manager checked in too. Everything was yummy and the service was great. read more

Concierge recommended this restaurant over others for good Mexican cuisine. Really disappointing. Started out with chips and salsa and the chips were not homemade or served warm. Basically flavorless. Salsa may have been homemade but nothing special. Ordered a guacamole, queso and pico appetizer which as not very good. Queso was liquid white with no seasoning, guacamole was just smashed avacado - no onion, jalapeno or tomato, and pico was totally dry. Entrees were green enchiladas which were put under a broiler and the green sauce was totally caked on top and cheese was dark brown. Inside was stewed chicken and nothing else. At least it was moist. Only plus. Rice was flavorless. Asked for sour cream and got crema which was almost liquid. Other entree was beef fajitas and beef was chewy and veggies were ok. Everything seemed to lack seasoning. Homemade tortillas were good. One positive was decent service - reason for 2 stars. Would not be my choice to recommend to tourists. read more

Had a hard time with this one. We sat down and a gentlemen with a camera came over and took our picture letting us know it was for a free postcard. He came back with the postcard and tried to sell us photos. We refused. Ordered the "Al Pastor" it's just carnitas with a red sauce on it. No char or grill marks. No Pineapple. When I asked for pineapple the waitress went back to get some and said that they were out and the pineapple was in the sauce. I sent it back. Bummer read more

Just go!! First impression, we got there about 6 pm on a Sunday and there was maybe 2 other tables there and we thought of leaving because how empty it was. We went in and were kindly treated, and it smelled good! They have good sized portions, that were amazing! And the chips and salsa hit the spot! I got the Quessa- barria, definitely a must try, great flavor and tender meat. Husband got the quesadilla- fajita with steak, and it was juice and tender and the peppers had the best taste. Kids meals were good sized and very good too! I think it may have been the owner stopped by a few times to make sure it was to our liking, go give it a try! read more

It is usually a place I really love but last night they forgot my beans and my rice and my tortillas and I had drove all the way home so by the time I went back there and got that and got back home my $50 meat tray was cold and not really that good so That's all I got. Thank you. But I'll definitely be back. Everybody has bad nights. read more

Great food and it came out FAST! The restaurant was very clean. The waitstaff was very professional and 3 different staff members checked on me. Couple all this with some absolutely beautiful hostesses and it's a great place for a quick and affordable meal. read more

The food had no spices. It was fresh but tasteless. It was so bland I'm surprised it's still open

Service was great, had a guy playing American songs with a Hispanic twist. You will pay anywhere from 15-20 for an entree but the serving size makes up for it! read more

Service was extremely slow, there were 4 tables sat. 3 servers on the floor and still took over 30 minutes to get our food. Waters had to be asked for multiple times before they were brought. Check took an extreme amount of time after the server came back and rewrote down what everyone had to eat. Poor services, very mid food. Not worth the time or effort. Not an authentic experience. Disappointed as it was a birthday celebration. The environment seemed uplifting till we went in there, kids running around uncontrollably. The child tripped the server, good thing she wasn't carrying anything!!! Gave the cards for payment and it took another 20 minutes. Felt sorta ridiculous. Gave back all the wrong cards with the checks. It just felt like a mess. Hoping the birthday girl had a better experience even though we chose to come here. read more

We have been eating at El Cerro for 20+ years locally. We enjoy the food, service and hospitality.

I came with my family - which is 12 of us - we got here around 8:00pm. The hostess and manager were really nice. Tried to be understanding for the fact that we had came last minute as such a large party and that the manager told us we can be sat in about 15 minutes which was really nice of him. We got sat around 8:15-8:30. Now, a waiter didn't come to take our order until about 9:30 and brought us a few baskets of chips. Again - tried to be understanding of the fact that we are a large party and they only had minimal servers. I have never really been upset or mad at an establishment before but I am pretty pissed. We didn't get our food until around 10:30 when the place was already pretty much closed. And when our food did come out they forgot multiple items in our orders and had to re ask us again for our order. We ordered queso as an "appetizer" but it came out with all of our food after waiting an hour and they didn't give us chips with it. We finished our only order of chips at 9:30 so we didn't really have anything to eat it with. Everything was just actually insane. I tried so hard to be understanding but this was actually ridiculous. read more
