This place is awesome! I've been here several times recently and we have had a blast every time! The margaritas are DELICIOUS but be ready for a sugar rush! The food is good. I have gotten the tacos and the corn which was great. I mainly get drinks though when I have been here. The servers have always been super friendly and they do a great job. If you hang out at night the DJs have the place dancing all night! I will be back again soon! read more

Great food and fun atmosphere if you're looking for a fun place to drink and eat good food! I am from San Diego and go to the original location in downtown and this location does not disappoint. The food is great, I highly recommend the carne asada plate and taco flight. They also have the best Ranch Waters in town! read more

I'm not coming back. Music is SO terrible. Cocktails are overpriced and you need to wait for them for hours. + weird vibes Not to mention the fact that the whole neighborhood hates the place because of their loud music over 95 decibels on weekdays. read more

Total disappointment. The beef fajitas were very chewy, shrimp looked boiled instead of grilled, and very pricey. I told the waitress that the beef fajitas were like chewing on rubber, and inedible. She smiled and said, okay! I should have also brought a fly swatter to fight off all the flies. read more

So finally went to check this new place out on 7th street after waiting for the initial hype to die down. Went for lunch around 12:30 on a Tuesday and easily Walked in and picked a table, it was chilly and windy that day and they had all the bay windows open all the doors open and it was just cold. The girl serving us seemed like the only waitress there however she did so in a timely manner, I ordered the California Burrito and it was good, I also ordered one of their margaritas I can't remember which one. My friend ordered a torta with al pastor and it came with parmesan garlic fries, it was a large size torta and he said it was pretty good. The margarita i ordered cost $10 and was very small although tasty definitely not worth the price at that size, tried to order Modelo and they don't have it on tap or in a bottle? Only a 16 oz can and charge $7 for it which is weird considering this is supposed to be a Mexican place. Then I wanted to order two shots of Cazadores Reposado and the waitress came back and told me they don't have the reposado, if you're going to featuring a large list of Tequilas you should probably have them all available, so anyways I ordered the Cazadores Blanco instead and when I got the bill I realized they charge $8 a shot for Cazadores Blanco! That is Patron prices and expensive 7th Street or not, after reading some of the other reviews here I also am put off to hear that they think they can charge a $20 cover to get in there LOL that's ridiculous. I just don't see the point of going to this place when there are so many better bars on 7th that don't do shady stuff like that and don't overcharge so much, I'd say you're not missing much by skipping this place read more

Horrible. Males came into the bathroom (4) and kicked me and my friend out. It was a violation and so weird. He pushed and shoved us out the way and made us leave FROM THE BATHROOM. WEIRDOS. And after I left, one the bouncers commented on my body. So fucking weird. read more

Drinks are watered down!!! Margaritas tasted like 7/11 slushees. Music is good. They need more waitresses. Hard to order food there on the weekends! Need more shade/fans on the patio. read more

Jadyn and the rest o of the staff never cease to amaze me. Amazing bottle service, food, and experience at El Chingon!

The food and service here is amazing. I will say that I found it quite off putting that I had to get wanded and patted down to get into a restaurant at 5PM on a Saturday.They also took and held my pocket knife which I had to retrieve after our early dinner. Newsflash, a good portion of Texans carry pocket knives! My wife couldn't wait to get out of the place because the security was so weird. When we left the security insisted that exit to the right and not to the left. Weirdos! If you have set up your restaurant/bar in such a way that you attract folks that need to be patted down and run through a metal detector the problem is you...not the middle aged guy with a pocket knife and a group of couples looking for a quick bite to eat. read more

I've been coming to this place for a while now and can honestly say it's become my home bar. The vibe and atmosphere is unmatched from the ambiance, drinks, and even catching the games with friends. It's never a dull moment when I'm there and the staff is super friendly and attentive. I bring all my friends and family here especially for my Sunday fundays. The girl who works the front door (I believe her name is Gigi) always makes sure we're taken care of when we come. I give this place an A+ read more

I had the paleta Margarita and the mangonada style margarita. OMG! Amazing! So I don't like margaritas and I don't like drinking but our waitress said they were good so I was like screw it I'll try it. I'm glad I did. I'm definitely coming back for these two. I had the birria tacos I forgot to take a picture. But they were amazing too. They had mariachi when I was here on a Sunday morning. I loved it all. The service the drinks and my food! read more

This place has the most welcoming hostess. I believe her name was Gigi. Very kind and welcoming. The vibe is always enjoyable. Love the music selection and always a blast when I'm there. read more

Blonde girl bartender was so RUDE! Would pressure us on what we wanted, rushed us if we werent ready to order. If we took long on trying to figure out what we wanted while she was there she would just leave and go talk to other male customers. Asked for three dos xx and she took like 15min to bring them ( because she was talking around) keep in mind there was like 7-8 people in the restaurant and thats including us!! ( we were 5) so it was super slow. My friend asked for a beer and she said " I need to see everyones ID when nobody had ordered any drinks. Yet when two other girls showed up she didnt even ID them. I felt kind of a racist vibe. Which is commonly seen because where from out of town. ( and i could care less) but its the customer service industry. You need to be open minded. Because anybody can come in thru those doors...( since we were visiting the city) we wanted to check out the place) I was dissapointed. Hopefully she was just having a bad day, and doesnt treat others like that. The manager was very nice came around to ask us how we were doing. Very attentive. read more

girl bartender was so rude to me and my friends. she kept asking me to pick a drink off the menu in which i was ( i told her 5-6 times my drink but she kept telling me to order off the menu, which i was) then we ordered some margaritas for my friends birthday and when they gave it to us one of the drinks spilt and she was asking for us to pay for it again after the manager said they would make it. we're pretty sure the lady bartender was off coke or some drug because she was not acting right. super rude and the last time i'm coming to this bar. food also took 30 minutes or more read more

Came here for dinner and drinks. I have only been here once before with great food, drinks and service with Jerome. However, my second visit was not so great. 3 out of 8 of us got some sort of food poisoning. Either coming out one end or both after eating here. I only ate a English muffin in the morning, so can definitely say it wasn't from anything else I ate. Not good. Maybe form one person would have been more acceptable, but 3 is just absolutely unacceptable. I only gave two stars because we had a really good server. Do better El Chingon. Getting sick from food is no joke, and after sharing my story I became aware that this has happened before. Disappointing considering I've been searching for this kind of Mexican food. read more

Place is fun! The food and drinks are good. The only problem I had is the super poor service. Our table never got bussed the entire night! read more

The short light completed bouncer with a nose piercing was so ugly towards me and my friend. Very inappropriate. We were having such a good night and he was being so Pervy he was following us and then made a move. Then asked us to leave when my friend denied him. What a terrible experience!! This establishment should really consider how they treat young women. read more

Great atmosphere I most definitely recommend this venue for any occasion every time I have gone Cheyenne has been great and extremely attentive to my party and my self!! This place and it's staff is definitely one of Fortworths best party locations, not to mention the food is amazing also!! read more

Gigi always makes me feel welcomed at El Chingon! I love the atmosphere and aesthetic of this place. Best frozen drinks!

Came here for a night out, never again. This employee literally push me and my friend didn't say excuse me nor apologize. He had the audacity to say it's his job. I told him you could had taped my shoulder not pushed us. Cover fee is $10 not bad but not worth it. The fact that deep elm is better says a lot. read more

Went there last night . Was on my own . Ordered a drink on the bar . It was my birthday and I tried to take a picture with the background and asked the bartender ( GIRL ) if she has 2 seconds to take a picture she said no way and said NO NO . I know it is busy but you walk extra miles to make costumers happy . WENT TO BOGADA it was packed and the bartender didn't hesitate to take a picture of me . SOME OFF THE STAFF NEEDS professional training you will go nowhere with that attitude. read more

Don't even bother giving this place your money. Visited this bar on a Saturday night and waited in line for an hour while other people were let in. There was 3 couples and were charged a cover charge while we saw other people were not, they did not even have a card reader at the reception so they took the card back. What.. also the drinks were not even good. Don't bother visiting this place. read more

Worst customer service ever!!! The manager is so rude!! I was trying to talk to him, Treated him with respect and he cussed me out! we paid for a table of 10 and it was only 8 of us at the table, so I went to get the other 2 that completed the 10. The manager said "fuck that, they cannot come in" I informed him we paid for a table and we were missing two people. He did that don't talk to me with his hand and walked away. It's crazy how they are quick to take your money but don't care to disrespect their customers. We are all adults, I feel like there's no need to disrespect or belittle people. read more

Food is not that great at all looks good on pictures but the taste is not great, service was also slow we were sitting down for about 20 minutes before they help us and the place was empty just a few people.. drinks are ok but besides that i wouldn't recommend to eat at this place.. read more

Loved this place super chill cute patio ! I live that the manager came around and personally asked us how we were doing We literally just left another bar that was so inattentive and never even got our order or asked us how we were doing Our waiter here was super sweet and we absolutely are coming back ! We usually come in the evenings on weekends and it's so much fun ! We had just the chips and guacamole and the watermelon drink ! And my friend got tacos she said they were really good ! read more

I recently moved back from San Diego and the original El Chingon is located there. The drinks are good at this location DJ will be a seven out of 10 all the good songs he spins become more of a techno vibe. Can't speak for every day but that was Sunday afternoon into early evening. Crowd is mainly Hispanic or white. I was told they do Spanish nights starting at 9 PM on the weekends I guess in the back. I DEF have to check that out. Worth checking out ! Crowd is also very young or maybe I'm just older lol read more

Churros is great that's the only reason for two stars but customer service is HORRIBLE. Bartender is not knowledgeable on menu items. Manger Shaun is rude and very nonchalant/passive aggressive with addressing concerns and providing customer service. read more

Giving this place two stars because they brought in a good act (Steve Trevino). If not for him, we would give one star. First as an event venue this sucked, the room was cool however putting seats on top of each other sucked. It was well over priced for this style of venue, especially when there is a two item minimum. Because the seats were so close there was no room to eat or sit comfortably. Especially during a global pandemic the seating was horrible! Employees had their masks down most of the time and being were very very slow. There are no tables to eat at unless you pay an ungodly amount for this type of venue. We did manage to try the tacos by taking turns holding drinks and leaning onto each other. As a Fort Worth transplant from San Diego I had much higher hopes for the food however it was very lackluster. read more

The environment to start is off the chart. It has such an upbeat vibe and the effort to decorate and add a twist is superb. Love love love the vibe. The menu is diverse and the drink was sooooo good. The salsa though... oommggg the green was loaded with flavor and the red was super spicy and good. The tacos were all different. I got the platter with one of each. Definitely coming back. My server/bartender was Sonia, not only was she super sweet and friendly but very tentative to anything I requested and made my drinks to perfection. read more
