What a great first experience! As soon as we walked in, we were greeted with friendly smiles and lively energy. The service was so polite, attentive, and super fast! We got our food barely five minutes after ordering, and it was delicious! Overall, we had an awesome lunch experience, and we definitely plan on returning in the future.

The food is always delicious, and the service is excellent.
We relocated to the Knoxville area almost 5 years ago from Phoenix, Arizona--we had no idea how many terrible meals and how long it would take to find really excellent Mexican food.Yay! We've done it! El Mezcal is not only the best Mexican around, they have dishes from various regions in Mexico and some "Southern friendly" dishes (drenched in runny white cheese sauce) so we can eat her and invite our neighbors to learn to eat really great Mexican food by degrees! Chips and salsa are terrific. I am working my way thru the menu...soup, rice and beans, tacos, fajitas, chicken dishes, enchiladas and tamales all tasty!The folks who work at this Kingston Pike location are top notch in speed, friendliness and keeping you topped off and the tables clean.Our church friends have a standing Sunday afternoon lunch here so leave us tables on Sunday afternoon and I won't regret sharing!Kid-friendliness: Our kids love the food and thought the fried ice cream was amazing!

I ordered a tortilla soup and the tortilla tasted like mold. I politely told the owner and instead of apologizing he told me that when he goes to a restaurant and doesn't like the food he pays. He is a cynic. Terrible restaurant.

Ordered a chicken fajita chipolte and a regular chicken fajita meal with my girlfriend, i am alergic to shrimp and my girlfriend is highly alergic to seafood and had a allergic reaction to the food that cause her to not be ablr to eat her food either just like me, we drank our drinks and asked the server if the food was cross contaminated(cooked on same grill as the regular food ) and shrimp cooked on same grill, he said yes they was cooked on same grill without being cleaned, but we could tell the owner when we left and he would take care of it and not charge us cause we couldnt eat the food. When i asked the owner at check out, he said he wasnt gonna take care of both only one and then they started a huge argument inside of the store with us , the fat server even grabbed his junk and told me if i didnt want to pay for the food i could suck his junk for the meal and that is grosa and totally unacceptable, as a veteran of the armed forces ive been many place and never have i or my girlfriend been treated with so much disrespect in one place before. I had to give this place a one star but i really wanted to give it zero stars , i told them i was going to call police and thats when they told me they would take care of it. My best advice is DO NOT GO HERE........
