We like this place so much that we went three times in two weeks…read more I've had the sopes, huaraches, and tacos. The sopes and huaraches were campechanos, and the tacos were fajita. The sopes and huaraches have a nice crisp texture, which is exactly how I prefer them. They're topped with beans, meat, lettuce, tomato, sour cream, onion, cheese, and avocado. The tacos are served on handmade tortillas with meat, onion, and cilantro. The handmade tortillas really make a difference. The campechano is excellent, with great flavor and a nice balance between the chorizo and fajita. The fajita tacos are also very good. The meat is flavorful without being overly salty. Both the green and red salsas are delicious. The service is great as well. The staff was attentive, friendly, and welcoming every time we visited. It's a small restaurant with a warm, inviting atmosphere. We have really enjoyed every visit and will definitely be back.

This place tastes like an Abuela's family kitchen has been put in the middle of a strip mall! Service was beyond great! From helping with my initial selection, to the constant refill on my coffee and checking to make sure the food was good. The setting is clean, fresh, and just the right about of decor to help you feel like your in Mexico.

The menu is huge and somehow everything sounds goods and it'shard to choose just one. So.. we ordered a few different items to try their food (see pics), and not a single one disappointed us. Yum! Fresh, flavorful, and made to order. Nothing sat under warming lights. Nice! The prices are impressive. It explains the steady stream of to-go orders flying out the door, and regulars. That constant buzz of people means they're doing something right. The vibe is very casual and welcoming. Don't be surprised if this becomes one of your new fav Mexican food spots.

They brought a large basket of perfectly crispy, warm chips with salsa and took my order. I got the #15 lunch special which is your choice of two enchiladas (I got sour cream chicken), rice and beans. The food was served quickly and at the perfect temperature. My enchiladas were bursting with chicken and the sour cream sauce was the perfect compliment. The rice was excellent as well. Even the iced tea is great, and featured a legit lemon slice. They have a full bar which I'll be trying on my next visit and two large TVs set where you can see one or both from any seat in the dining room. I told my server she's going to get sick of seeing me because I'll be here at least twice a week! Service was excellent by the way. My tea was even refilled without having to ask. It was a 10 star meal!

We entered and no one says anything, lady came in after us waiting, shoving us to see if there is a list for waiting... like girl were the only two people in line. We got sat and the workers are very friendly, no problem there. Chips were good and came out crisp. I ordered the two taco plate. Taco shell was very stale, was very sad. The ground beef wasn't that good, chicken taco was better (surprisingly). Rice and beans were decent. Overall, didn't hate it here, but also not that great. There was a lot of people here and a lot of people waiting to be seated as well.

We started with the Guacamole de la Mesa, prepared fresh tableside, and it was the perfect way to kick off the meal. The ingredients were incredibly fresh, and you could really taste the difference. Watching it being made right in front of us added a fun touch to the experience, and the flavor was spot-on; fresh, creamy, and perfectly seasoned. For my entrée, I ordered the chimichanga with creamy jalapeño sauce, and it was phenomenal. The chimichanga was crispy on the outside while remaining flavorful and tender inside. The creamy jalapeño sauce was the star of the dish, adding just the right amount of richness and a subtle kick without overpowering the other flavors. Every bite was delicious. My girlfriend ordered the quesabirria tacos, and they were equally impressive. The tacos were packed with flavorful, tender meat and perfectly crisped tortillas loaded with melted cheese. The consommé on the side brought everything together and made each bite even more satisfying. The atmosphere was welcoming, the food came out promptly, and every dish felt thoughtfully prepared. It's clear that El Norte takes pride in both quality and presentation. We'll definitely be coming back, and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for fantastic Mexican food. Easy five stars!

They have quite a few options and the tacos are huge. Normally I can eat 5 tacos when hungry but I was already stuffed after 4 tacos here. They really load them up with meat. Got the trompo, lengua, and barbacoa, and ironically thought the trompo tacos were the least impressive since the meat was a little dry. The lengua was pretty good but the barbacoa was probably my favorite as the meat was soft and loaded with sauce and flavor. It was a nice touch that they give grilled onions and a grilled pepper with the cilantro and onions. Def a great option and will come back if craving authentic tacos.
