We were just meandering through this area recently and discovered the cute little downtown area of…read moreFarmersville. Five out of six locals recommended this place. I checked it out on YELP and it only had 3.5 stars, so that gave me a little pause. However, five out of six locals can't be wrong, right? The first thing you notice are the prices...it's like you stepped back into 2015; hardly any entree's over $9.99. along with the obligatory chips and salsa, they also offer free queso. My wife had the "Mexican plate" - 2 tamales, an enchiladas and crispy taco, rice and beans - $9.99. I had 12 shrimp in a chipotle sauce with rice and corn tortillas - $10.99. The beer and margaritas are also incredibly affordable compared to most places these days. Is it the best Mexican food that I've ever had? No. But it was quite good and I would certainly eat here again. Our servers were great - Michelle is quiet and efficient. Mona is efficient and a bit of a prankster. Excellent teamwork. Jalapeño's, keep up the great work!!

Been here twice. This is small town Mexican food, hole in the wall type place. You seat yourself…read morewhen you arrive (there are no signs about this). If there are no tables available, you wait for one. The menu has a lot of food and combo options. They do have a bar, but didn't seem to have a bartender. The servers were making their own drinks, so you can't expect to place a fancy bar order here. They dont bring you a check, you just pay at the front and they'll know what to charge. Service is slow, for any small time town. No need to hurry through dinner, just sit and relax and your food will be ready when its ready. They do provide chips, salsa and queso for every guest while you wait for your food. Good luck not filling up on that before you get your food. The salsa and queso are both so good! I love their chili con carne. It's got deep flavors, hints of cinnamon and a great mouth feel. The steak was super flavorful and juicy. It can stand on its own. Affordable dinner, left full and would return again, now that we have some expectations settled.

I ordered the Surf & Turf burrito to go. It was huge! I ate only half that night and finished the rest the next day for lunch. I liked that they didn't skimp on the amount of protein in the burrito. Every bite had either steak or shrimp in it. It was so fresh and delicious. I highly recommend trying that one. They also have bowls. I'm not sure if you can get any burrito as a bowl. If so, that would be awesome! I'll definitely be back to try other items on the menu.

Also- the beer was warm and the dressed glass became a naked pour after the beer hit the rim and poured over.

My wife and I have been eating at El Rodeo now for the past year or so. We've been there for our…read morefive times over that time period. The food has been consistently hot and fresh, of good quality overall and tasty! My wife's go to meal has been the Tacos al Carbon, which she really enjoys. The portion size has always been adequate. I've had the El Combo Plate, the El Lopez, a mixed Enchilada Plate, and Birria Tacos. I've also enjoyed everything I've eaten at El Rodeo. Recently, we opted to return to our previous go to Tex Mex restaurant (El Fenix), because of the price increases at El Rodeo. Probably the biggest advantage El Rodeo has over El Fenix is menus choices. El Rodeo's menu is more extensive. However, El Fenix has a full bar and better atmosphere. Whereas, El Rodeo does have somewhat of hole in the wall ambiance, with much simpler furnishings. As far as overall food quality, my wife and I both agree that El Fenix has the edge over El Rodeo. Interestingly, both restaurants have almost the exact same salsa recipe. Both taste fresh, but both are also fairly watery, which, for me, is a fail. I prefer a salsa with I guess more of a tomato base. I mean, I still eat the salsa at El Rodeo, but it's definitely not the star of the meal! The chips at El Rodeo are better than those at El Fenix. (I did not intend for this to be a comparison to El Fenix, it just worked out that way, because I'm a little delayed on submitting this updated review on El Rodeo.) I do very much appreciate the large drink mugs at El Rodeo. I've would have to literally chug one's drink throughout the meal to even need a single refill. The mugs are HUGE! So, we'll be back to El Rodeo despite the pricing increases, but probably not as frequently as we would like. Times are tough and value shopping, even for dine out spots, is paramount! If you try El Rodeo you won't be disappointed, so do give it a try! Eat well, Be well. Cheers!
