Service was very good. Our dinner was great. Restaurant was clean. The flowers outside welcome you is a nice touch.

I travel for work, so I'm always looking for local spots to grab lunch. Stopped in here for lunch today. I was craving some Carne Asada and they had a good priced lunch portion so I decided to check it out! Service was excellent! Very attentive host and servers. Food came out quick, hot and very flavorful. The salsa was also great! I would definitely stop here again.

We've been going here for around 20 years I think. Have NEVER had a bad meal after 30 trips. Sometimes I'll order too large of a meal just to have leftovers on purpose. The salsa is fantastic, too.

This is a must have. #25 Burrito/Burrito combo. Shredded chicken and beef....a litteral 8.5 out of 10. I have yet to find a 10. Simple food amazing flavor.

Quite enjoyed the food. The steak and shrimp plate was more than enough for a big guy like me

Seems like this location has not bein trained on customers service. The young girl that seated us was too shy. Once at our table, the male waitres appeared mad with a really rude tone of voice started to take our order. Not even a hello or nothing just like, " READY TO ORDER?" in a very scolded tone of voice. I think that if you have a strong voice you should softened when speaking to a customer. We choose to eat there, there is other awesome places to go that the food is better, And the customer service is way better. I regret not talking the manager or getting the waitress name.

Loved the Atmosphere and the Friendly Staff. One waiter started to just stop and chat with us and made us feel important. The food was hot and Very Good! Large Portions went home for 2nd meal. Prices are reasonable

Having just moved to Washington State from Texas we have definitely missed really good Mexican food. We've tried several options locally and this is as close as we've found to what we think of as "authentic". The restaurant has very bright colors, is well lit, clean, and provides plenty of space for tables. My only complaint is that the price is a bit high. We'll see how the second visit goes but expecting more great service and very good food.

Seems to be the highest rated Mexican restaurant in Yakima. Good flavors. Big portions
Rice was dried out, beans had no flavor and the beef was watery and ruined my tacos. Bagged up 90%of both my hubby's and my food for our dogs. I get text messages every time my card is used and our bill came to 26.22 but my bank said they changed 31.44 instead. I went in to show them and the manager called my bank liars so watch your bank statement for them charging too much!

We have been customers of El Porton for many, many years and I have never been this disappointed with their service. We called on a Wednesday to make a reservation for a birthday celebration on Friday of the same week for a party of 8. We confirmed the reservation over the phone with the hostess. We called early on Friday to verify that our table remained reserved, to which the hostess replied that it had been canceled. Suggesting we get there early if we wanted a table. Now, how can someone with a party of 8 be expected to wait for a table, on a busy weekend, where there will most likely not be any tables? We asked to speak to the manager to which then their tone changed stating they could reserve our table. This call happened around 5:45pm. Reservation was for 7pm. Got there early. We overheard a hostess or waitress saying, “oh, they got here?” We went straight to our table. Waiter by the name of Horacio took our drinks and meal order. Brought out our meals and drinks. However, he did not check on our table for the rest of the dinner. We saw him walking around the other surrounding tables and serving others, but not once did he approach our table to ask if we needed anything. We tried to signal him over but he would not stare our direction. He knew it was a birthday celebration since that is what we had called our reservation for. We needed napkins, wanted salsa, needed tortillas that he said he’d bring, but never did. Refills. Nothing. We had to ask a different lady cleaning tables if we could get our dad an ice cream treat for his birthday. We were all VERY disappointed in this waiter’s service. I don’t know if it’s because he knew the backstory of me wanting to speak to management for canceling our table reservation. Never expected this from El Porton and I DO NOT recommend this place any longer. We ALWAYS tip, even with bad service, however, this “service” was not deserving of anything. We have met the owners working the restaurant and they are very friendly people. But these waiters and servers that have been there for years no longer fit my expectations.
