    Carne asada sopes.
    Claudia C.

    Came across this small family business. The food was exceptional! I ordered the carne asada platter and my hubs a carne asada (ranchero) burrito. The lady at the front taking orders was super sweet and accommodating.

    This is probably the best Mexican Diner style restaurant that I've eaten at. I'm from Denver and there's a bunch of places here people rave about but I find the quality and flavor always a little disappointing. So I was nothing but shocked to find El Super taco representing the style so we'll in little Alamosa! My favorite dish which was absolutely delicious was the chili verde combo plate! It had everything! super tender and well marinated pork with guacamole, pico and a chili on the side. This was served with fresh corn tortillas with rice and beans. The second dish we ordered was the chili rellenos combo the rellenos were really tasty and done in a traditional no frills way just all flavor. If your in Alamosa and like Mexican food you need to try this spot first.

    The employee just hanging out with girls instead of doing his job.

    The kid at the register was more concerned with talking to the girls hanging out at the counter than with taking any food orders. They have hand-written signs all over saying that "menu prices not updated" even though the menu is electronic. It seems like it would have been easier to just change the menu than hang up a bunch more signs about it. It seems to be just a way to arbitrarily decide how much your food will be. When you ask how much things are, the kid taking orders doesn't have a clue. Pretty great customer service. Also, have fun if you use the women's restroom. The toilet isn't secured to the ground. Food is ok.

    Great Mexican food right off the main drag, Highway 160. I loved their aqua fresca (watermelon) and my beef chimichanda was full of flavor.

FOOD There was complimentary chips and salsa. It was okay. I started craving a stuffed sopapilla ($17.99) as soon as I saw it on the menu. The pork was so tender and the green sauce I requested was full of flavor. Highly recommend this meal. My daughter asked for the quesadillas ($12.49) from the appetizers. It was strange that in the middle of the triangular goodies with requested ground beef was a huge pool of red sauce. She enjoyed the side of guacomole ($1.99). My SO had the steak Mexicana ($17.99) which he seemed to enjoy. My other daughter had the shrimp Mexicana ($17.99). She gobbled the shrimp. I tried her beans and rice which I didn't have with my own meal. They were pretty good. SERVICE I really enjoyed meeting the owner. He came to our table and helped clean up some water my daughter accidentally spilled. The only thing I wish that had happened that evening was that all of our meals would have been served all at once. They were spread out minutes apart. AMBIANCE The parking lot was in construction as of 5/26/2023. Inside, the place may be small, yet, there were large and small tables and booths. It's a seat yourself type of place. There were vibrant colors everywhere. A white board with their daily specials was on the wall near the kitchen. I wish I had seen it earlier. Finally, no background music, yet, there was a flat screen with some kid-friendly movies playing. MY RATING BREAKDOWN Food: 4 | Service: 4 | Ambiance: 4 | Price: 3

Our server was too frazzled to serve everyone in the restaurant efficiently. There were two 5-top tables, and three booths with 2 to 3 people each. It took about 10 min after we were seated before the server came to take our order. I asked for water with lemon, but she forgot the lemon. She brought lemons 10 min later when she brought the food to the 5-top next to us. Our food took another 15 min after we ordered. After food was served to everyone in the restaurant, our server came by to check on us...we were 3/4 done with our meal. FOOD. We were provided chips and salsa (enough for 1-1/2 people only) after we were seated. Since food was slow coming, we asked for more and was told it would cost us $1.99 for another round. Huh?! We agreed to the charge because we were starving! I loved the chips though because it was not store-bought. For our meal, I had a combination meal of chicken enchilada, cheese enchilada and crispy relleno with green chile. Taste wise, the food lacked the UMPH to make the food taste really good although the crispy relleno was REALLY CRISPY! My husband had a beef burrito meal. Like mine, he said it was nothing to write home about. Not sure why this restaurant was given the title of best Mexican restaurant in the SLV. No way! We are not returning.
