Came here a month ago after seeing their reviews on Yelp. My aunt and I were looking for authentic…read moretacos. We go out to lunch once a month and we look for different cuisines each time. My taco standards are high because I lived in LA for 13 years. My aunt got the ground beef burrito dinner. She enjoyed it and had leftovers. I ordered two chicken and one steak taco. I loved the chicken tacos. I got mine with lettuce and tomato. And there were chips on the table that came with a saucy salsa. They also had Dr Pepper which is a major plus in my book. They would have been five stars in my eyes. But today, I came back craving tacos. I had been released from the hospital and all I wanted were these tacos. We looked up their hours on Yelp. It said they'd be open until 4. I called ahead to try to place a pickup order. I called for 15 minutes straight. No one picked up the phone. They also don't have an accurate menu anywhere listed online. All the Yelp menus are over 8 years old. Well we arrived before 4 and the door was locked. There were people inside eating and they just stared at us. It just left a bad taste in my mouth so I won't be coming back. You have hours and a phone for a reason.

The place has a welcoming, casual atmosphere. There is choice of seating: booth, table, or bar side. It's clean and well attended. The wait staff was nice. The chef even came to clarify some things on my order (how I wanted my egg) and checked on me afterwards with future suggestions. I'll be back. I seated myself in a booth. Fresh made chips and salsa choices were brought to the table with napkins and utensils. Rhodes chips were just right. They were made from good tortillas, crisp fried in clean oil. I could have just had that for breakfast. I needed proteins, so I chose the Chilaquiles con Huevo in green salsa. I was told the red was not spicy but can be adjusted to my liking. My eggs (2) were over easy (well executed), served over cheesy corn fried tortilla strips with sour cream, tomatoes, refried beans, rice and guacamole. I make it through half the dish. The rest was taken home and eaten the next day. Just as tasty. I have more s dishes to try and a Summer month to do it.

I ordered the taco dinner which came with a chorizo,pastor, and carne asada taco all with cilantro and onion along with beans and rice. Chorizo had a great spice level and crisp. Pastor had a nice balance of sweet and spicy. Carne asada was alright. The beans and rice were an afterthought. Very friendly staff when I walked in and a very chill vibe. If you're in the area looking to try a new spot El Mezcal is it!

I added lime (limon), but I didn't like their salsas. Overall, it was okay 3/5. My boyfriend ordered: 3 tacos - chicken (pollo), steak (asada), and Al pastor: Onion (cebolla) and cilantro - He said they were okay, but not very flavorful either. - Of the three, he liked the chicken the most. - He also wasn't a fan of the salsa. Chips & salsa: They give you a good size brown paper bag filled with chips and a nice size salsa. - I was not a fan of the salsa, but I like the chips; you can tell they make them fresh in house. - My boyfriend was not a fan of either the salsa or the chips. He said they were thick and greasy. - I agree they are thick and they do have grease, but that's because they are freshly fried corn tortillas, which I think that's a good thing.
