Estella's Cantina is the newest food addition to Lake Street in Gary's Miller Beach. We stopped in…read morefor dinner before attending an open house at the Miller Beach Arts and Creative District which is right across the street. Estella's was fantastic. First, the service was top class. Our server was attentive and really did a great job engaging with our kids. According to Estella's website: Indulge in our authentic made-to-order tacos and sip on traditional Mexican classic cocktails and craft tequilas. The tacos are definitely the star of the show on the food menu. Thumbs up all around from our kids. Two of them had steak tacos and the other two had chicken tacos. My wife and I split the nachos with chicken added and they were equally delicious. Also a shout out for their chips and salsa. They are a la carte, but the chips are made to order and were some of the best nacho chips we've had in the area. Estella's won us over for sure. We'll be back!

We spent the day in INDY with our grandson for his 5th birthday . After a long day there, we drove…read moreback home and we were tired and hungry. Nothing sounded good to the Mrs until I mentioned Mexican food and El Charrito. Boom! Instant winner! We got Quesabirria Dinners and a large order of chips and salsa. Delicious. When we dine in person, the service is great and when we order takeout, the food still has the same quality. You can't say that about a lot of restaurants. El Charrito is #1 in our book for quality food, service and ambience. Check them out when you're in the Portage area!

We called our order in and it was ready when we arrived. I ordered the loaded nachos; but instead of the nacho chips I got French fries. Our order also included the Fajita taco salad with chicken, 2 taco dinner (soft shell) shredded chicken and 2 Tostadas. Everyone enjoyed their meal. Overall, I give the experience 5 Stars.

Friendly, kind, great humor. We loved chatting and getting to know him. It's a no frills place with solid food. The guacamole, gorditas, salsa and chips were great. They were able to easily accommodate my vegetarian diet and their rice and beans are meat-free,

I stopped in today for a beef sandwich and the sweet young lady suggested the special, 2 Beef sandwiches to your liking regular/dry/wet and choice of peppers and cheese if you please...plus a order of French fries. All this for$10!! And the beef is cooked in house! This wasn't your typical bucket of precooked slop that sooo many restaurants buy frozen . Restaurants don't cook anymore, they simply heat up pre- made frozen tasteless slop. Imagine a Beef roasting in the oven..Just how it should be made and served. Stop in and give this nice couple a try! I promise you'll be happy. I also bought a few tacos but I was so filled from the beef sandwich I didn't really try the tacos. But I think I wanna try the Ribeye steak burrito on my next visit.

Yuck. The steak tacos were terrible-no flavor at all. The chicken quesadilla was supposed to be…read morejust chicken and cheese, but it came with peppers and onions. We sent it back, and a minute later they returned the same quesadilla with the peppers picked off only the top half. On top of that, most of the food was cold. Honestly, it probably would've been warmer sitting in a cabinet. The server also wasn't very helpful. We asked several times for more chips and salsa and didn't get any until we asked a different server. You'd honestly be better off going to a fast-food restaurant. We spent way too much money for a really shitty meal.

We saw flan on the dessert menu and couldn't pass that up-- and so glad we didn't! The BEST flan (smooth creamy custard goodness) and large enough helping that it worked for both of us, surrounded by a delicious hard sauce. Busy but happy, friendly service, and music as background, not so loud we couldn't talk (but of course, we were very busy eating!). Price reasonable for the food and we'll be back.
