    Burritos Mexicana
    Lisa P.

    The restaurant was authentic with the decor. The food was very enjoyable. I ordered the Burritos Mexicana and really enjoyed the flavor and the beef tips instead of ground beef. I missed having rice with the entree. Overall good. The wait staff were very busy and you can clearly see they are short staffed. But they got it done. Again good food!

    Thumbs up, good eats!

    Came to El Cascabel as a family member of the owner recommended it being close to Grinnell (we'd…read morebeen in Marshalltown and were looking for Mexican here) and were excited at how close it is! The location is pretty cool - outside is very pretty to walk by and see and inside, and outside really, you see the trains go by directly next to it! That in itself already gave a cool ambiance. They played great music upon walking - Spanish station perhaps, but we loved it and as soon as we walked in were greeted with big smiles. It's a pretty big restaurant with a lot of room! An extensive menu also, we ended up with enchiladas, cheese crisp, and a chicken dish. They brought out some chips and salsa ahead of our meal, for the table, and that was lovely. Chips were warm but didn't seem super fresh although were still great. The salsa was quite mild but wouldn't expect different in the heartland. The service was wonderful and our server was attentive. As for the flavor of enchiladas - very good. Cheesy and delicious. The chicken was good, but being so close to Mexico coming from southern AZ we have pretty authentic close to native flavors. The seasoning was ok and the rice and beans that it came with were also alright. We were largely impressed with the service and structure more than anything. I was really happy with the michelada - such a staple for my meals when having Mexican so it was perfect!! We enjoyed overall and recommend. We may have to try others to have a better fair ranking of Mexican in Grinnell. But it's worth a try!

    If you are in Grinnell and love history, this is the place to go. It's where Grinnell was founded…read morein the 1850's where two train tracks cross. The restaurant is in the repurposed train depot. As for the food, the usual Mexican menu. The enchilada we had was very good as were the street tacos. Our meal started with warm fresh tortilla chips. The service was friendly and accommodating.

My family was traveling and decided to stop here on a whim. Man, I should have read the reviews beforehand. The young woman at the register with multiple facial piercings took our order, but she clearly wasn't paying attention. We kept our order as simple as possible, yet it was still wrong. They forgot one of our meals and my husband's side. Mistakes happen, so we let them know. It then took another 10 to 15 minutes to receive the missing items. Not the end of the world, right? The family we were traveling with had an even worse experience. They waited over 30 minutes while several families who ordered after them (and multiple drive-thru orders) were served first. At one point, I was convinced I could've walked behind the counter, clocked in, watched the training videos, and made their order myself. Were they waiting for the vegetables to finish growing? When they finally asked about their food, the staff showed zero urgency and simply said they'd have to wait even longer. After another 15 to 20 minutes, they gave up and asked for a refund. The manager (a middle aged guy) then informed them he had to "calculate" the refund because they'd already received their drinks. The lion, the witch, and the audacity of this dude. Like, bro... it's Taco Bell, not an accounting firm. Just apologize, own up to your mistake, and issue the full refund. He was doing too much. After a ridiculous amount of back and forth, I believe they finally got the full refund. Overall, this was one of the worst fast-food experiences I've ever had. This place felt poorly managed, unclean, and staffed by people who seemed either unwilling or unable to provide even basic customer service. Avoid this place like the plague.
