Fish Tacos were very good with a slight heat to them. The fried plantanes were the best I have ever had, and freshly made. The cheese puspusa was very good, would highly recommend.

The restaurant is adorable, service is terrific, and the food is amazing. Very reasonably priced.Wheelchair accessibility: Small wheelchair ramp attached to handicap spot. Ramp may not be wide enough, but the one step is about 6 inches up.

Just moved to area and decided to stop on my sister’s last day in town. So glad we did!! I will definitely be a regular customer from now on!! The food was so good and the service was great. We dug in as soon as the food came out, it looked so good I forgot to take photos.

My husband and I have been looking for a new staple taco place near our apartment. We decided to give El Amigo a try, and we are SO GLAD we did. The food was DELICIOUS. We got asada, pastor, pollo, and the shrimp tacos. It came with three salsas and slices of lime and radish. It went under my radar for a while because it looks a bit inconspicuous. But my husband found it on google, and THANK GOODNESS he did. Can't wait for summer so we can eat our tacos and crack open a refreshing coke to wash it all down, while enjoying the nice hot weather in their outdoor seating area.

This place deserves every good review it's gotten. I could not have possibly been happier with the food, everything was incredible. And they've got cantaloupe juice!

The staff is nice. You order at counter and they bring your food. The food was wonderful! We recommend the chicken fajitas and queso.

We dined in and sat outside. It’s counter service, so you order when you walk in and they were bringing everyone’s food out very quickly. We absolutely loved everything we got.. the quesadillas, gorditas, tacos and all the sides. I was expecting the side salad that came with my food to be simple but it had fresh sliced avocados and so many fresh veggies arranged very beautifully. The staff were very kind and warm. Highly recommend for anyone to try them out. They get packed because the locals know this place is amazing
