We are big fans of this place and will be back…read more We came here on Valentine's Day weekend and there were tons of heart decorations. It was very cute. It's a large space so I don't think there's ever any wait. Service was quick and friendly. I tried the margarita flight. I actually wasn't the biggest fan (too sweet) but I'm glad I tried it. Next time I'll stick with another drink on their menu (they have so many great looking ones.) My husband got a skinny margarita and liked it. My older son requested queso and it was pretty good. I ended up drizzling it on my beans. He also got chicken tenders, ended up eating the fries, not loving the chicken so we should try something else. My younger son shared my carne asada, which was delicious. I highly recommend. I added the chimmichurri sauce which is the way to go. I got it with black beans. I wasn't a fan of the flour tortillas so no point in getting them and wasting the carbs. My husband got the taco de asada with refried beans and corn tortillas. He enjoyed it and would get it again. This is definitely a great place to stop near Legoland. I would eat here again.

My only regret was not coming here sooner.

I got the enchiladas creama with shredded chicken. The chicken was super juicy which is hard to do with shredded chicken. Our server Veronica was so kind and attentive. I have a peanut allergy and she double, triple checked to make sure there was no peanuts in kitchen. The place is very clean, the booths done with nice leather detail. The bar area is very nicely decorated, I love their bar stools. We will definitely be coming back.

Well ... we order some steak ranchero and steak in green sauce , lady tell us after we order 2 min later that they don't have steak anymore ( really ? Bad inventory ) so then we order the shrimp fajitas and breaded shrimp , the fajitas there were nice , but the breaded shrimp totally disappointed, was brought with pieces of jalapeños breaded , was not that good , place look a little dirty inside and service was not that great ... I hate to shut down the door to places , but this one definitely I'm not coming back to try seconds ...

This place is an authentic, family owned Mexican restaurant. I've personally considered this my…read morefavorite restaurant ever since I can remember, even as time passed and I found myself fortunate enough to travel the world and experience authentic Mexican food many a time, this place continues to hold a special place in my heart. The restaurant itself (referring to the old location on Main Street, as of writing this the restaurant is in the process of relocating) has a small, cozy vibe. Lots of colorful decorations, and depending on the time of year you're likely to come across some holiday decorations. The service is great, most if not all of the employees speak Spanish so if that is your preferred language you'll have no troubles. The menu is large, with tons of options for all ages; though I will say I tend to order the exact same thing every time I go (give the fajitas a try, Chicken is my favorite here, they season the meat very well). Preperation/cook time is also very quick, often you will place an order and have your food on the table in 15-20 minutes. The servers are all pleasant to interact with in my experience, and seem to be knowledgeable when asked about the menu. All in all- if you're looking for a great local joint to enjoy some REAL (not some pale crappy tex-mex imitation) Mexican food, and support a family business, you can't do better than El Olivo!

This isn't located inside of a small shopping plaza and it is hard to miss. The inside is very small but they do have seating if you want to eat there. They have a large variety on the menu, but I definitely opted for the tacos and they did not disappoint. The guys that are running the place are very friendly and I will definitely be back.

Anytime we're in Florida, we have to stop here. The food is absolutely amazing--every option we've…read moretried has been fantastic. The portions are generous, the service is fast, and the staff are kind and efficient, even during the busiest times. They offer both indoor and outdoor seating, and honestly, tacos outside just hit differently--there's no comparison to other shops in the area. The place is small, so be sure to order a good amount--you'll probably want more after your first bite! Don't skip the sauces either; they're flavorful and pair perfectly with everything. Pro tip: Have exact cash or your card ready. The line moves quickly, especially during the lunch rush. Beyond the food, the shop itself is worth exploring. They carry a wide selection of grocery items, western wear, fresh pan dulce, and other authentic finds. Before you leave, treat yourself to a sweet pan dulce or a refreshing paleta. You won't regret it. Highly recommend--this spot truly delivers on all fronts
