“Chicken fajitas were fine. Chile rellano consisted of a large plate crammed with food; everything was mashed together. Actually, quite unappetizing though the taste was OK. Margarita was quite good. Salsa was not spicy at all; it required ordering habanero dip to add a tiny amount to the initial dip (for $2). Service was fine except for al long wait for the check.“

“This is not your regular Mexican restaurant. They primarily have seafood. The food was great and the portions are very large. The dry ceviche (instead of salsa and chips) was good, but all the salsas were too spicy for us. I'd definitely come back, as they have a good variety of dishes to try.“

“I have been coming to Tacos el Tio Chetos for a very long time. The waitresses have always been very good, but the one that has been with them for years is awesome. She keeps up with the full dining room and I have watched her take deliveries and bring me my drink at the same time. I am well known there now since I eat there often. It is the best Mexican food in the area by far, and the most authentic! The food is inconsistent in its preparation, but always has been very delicious. Just like I cook! Try the Norteno and the ACP, but their weekend special of Barbacoa is outstanding!“

“This restaurant has an upscale vibe compared to the El Paso kind of Mexican restaurant. It was beautifully decorated and the service was great. The managers made our short wait enjoyable. Families were there having a wonderful time. Food was great. I didn't like the churros they were fried way too hard. Couldn't even eat them. But I took them to go. Would have been recooked had I ate them there no doubt. The managers and staff were there to make sure my experience was one of enjoyment.“

“We have been to El Paso many times and every time it’s awesome! We have been in small groups and big groups and have always had excellent service and excellent food. I love the fiesta burrito and the white cheese sauce is amazing. We always start out with guacamole regional. It’s a must have for everyone. We have many friends that visit us and they always want to make one of our dinners at El Paso. Thanks for your constant attention to detail and delicious food!“

“Eat here at least once a week. My only suggestion would be to use different take out containers for bean dip. I checked my bag before leaving,thankfully. The bean dip was oozing in the bottom of bag. The container was turned sideways. I emptied the bag and cleaned it up. The hostess gave me a new bag.“

“me and my boyfriend ate here yesterday and i wanted to brag on them as well as express how thankful i am for the kindness and compassion they showed us. i had ordered the amigos super which is something i had never gotten before. long story short, it was made with a ranchero sauce that didn’t taste very good to me. i am a very anxious person, and i hate complaining or being difficult in any way. our waiter noticed i wasn’t eating, and came by to see if everything was okay. i told him i didn’t like what i had ordered, and he immediately suggested a substitute for the ranchero sauce, took what i didn’t eat to the kitchen and brought my food back within 10 minutes and made sure i liked it as well before leaving our table. it was delicious!! i wish i would’ve gotten our waiter’s name so i could give him a shoutout on here. i highly recommend this restaurant to anyone who hasn’t tried it. the service is fast, and they are all super friendly and understanding!! i’ll definitely be back in the future!“

“Easily my favorite resteraunt around. No contest. They make the best food, hands down, for miles around. I only wish I lived closer, so I could come in more often.Vegetarian options: Various Non-Meat options, and you pick how the meal is built manually, and you see them make it in front of you. So you know for sure everything that goes into your meal.Dietary restrictions: As you select each ingredient individually, you decide entirely what is in the food you're ordering.Parking: The parking lot is behind the store, not in front. You'll need to go around the building to find it if you're coming in from the highway.Kid-friendliness: Kids eat free at certain times on Mondays.Wheelchair accessibility: The curb right in front of the entrance is ramped for wheelchairs, and the parking space right up front are all handicap friendly spaces.“
