Reviews El Paso Mexican Restaurant

Great food, extremely reasonable prices. Sat at the bar. Bartender was VERY attentive. We did go during a slow time. Clean. Could see kitchen while sitting at bar and it was spotless. Great margaritas, a little sour but definitely did the trick. The palomas (made with Squirt soda per my request) were SOOOO GOOD.

I would like to share my experience at this restaurant I have been in business personally myself for 48 years my philosophy, and doing business is the customer is always right, especially if you won’t return business and good reviews this is very difficult for me to write a negative review Because being in business, I don’t like to do this because many times people are so unfair for no apparent reason, but I felt it very strongly that people need to know about the owner of this restaurant. It was a Sunday afternoon and I had traveled outside of Tennessee to Charlotte, North Carolina , on my way back I stopped in because I was really hungry and was in the mood for Mexican food. Win. The waiter came up to take my order. I asked him what was his suggestion on the menu and his favorite thing so I took his word for it, and ordered what he had suggested shortly there after I received my food, and it was way too hot and spicy, I do love spicy although this was way too hot and spicy and it was cold so I ate several bites of it and decided to steal tip so when I got to the register I had already left a $12 tip for a $16 bill before I left my table. I got a notification on my credit card which is a business account that someone had tried to charge something on my card And my bank had closed down my card so when I got to the register to pay I explained to the owner for the $16 bill what it happened and I showed him on my phone where I had gotten notification from my bank not only did he make a scene to embarrass me in front of everyone in the restaurant But threatened to call the police. I informed him that I knew many people in the area of Morganton, and around the Morganton area that he should be familiar with that were personal friends of mine that also had Mexican restaurants, and that I would assure him that I would pay my $16 bill if he would only give me the opportunity to make several phone calls instead of complying to my request, he continued to embarrass me in front of everyone in the restaurant and follow me out to my car to take my tag number and tell me he was gonna call the police I said to him sir what is wrong with you? We are talking about a $16 bill. I have no intentions of not paying this bill but I do not have any cash on me at the time and I have no access to my ATM card he stood in the parking lot and yelled at me and treated me like a hard criminal. When I left the restaurant I called a friend of mine is 20 minutes away that at one time had worked for him And he said to me I’m not surprised at all He is a real jerk and very difficult to work for that’s why I was only there for a short time I asked My Friend would you do me a great favor and told him my experience would you please go to the restaurant and pay my $16 bill when he arrived at the restaurant, he explained to the man that I was a very decent And kind individual. He paid my bill and assured me by giving me a copy or sending me a copy to my phone!!!! This man needs to understand their consequences for his actions for $16 bill that was paid within 45 minutes of leaving the restaurant so I ask you do you want to give this kind of businessman your business and guess what the food was lousy the service was lousy, and his attitude was embarrassing for him as a business owner. I hope he reads this and understand you never know who you’re talking to you never know who you’re waiting on always treat everyone with class and dignity and respect I’m beginning to look at a lot of his reviews and I’m finding that I’m not the only one that is been so unsatisfied I guess that’s why he only has a 4.5 stars like I said I would much rather give a good review, but this was necessary for everyone to know what a piece of garbage he is

Surprisingly decent little Mexican establishment that you would pass by without even noticing it's there. Prices are reasonable and the food was good. Would recommend to anyone looking for their Mexican food fix.

Not much to say, everything is wonderful. Great margaritas. Unless you are a heavy weight, don't get the big one. Prices are fine and the service can't be beat. Food was better then expected.

By far the best Mexican food I've had on the east coast! My wife ordered taquitos, and I ordered the burrito Fiesta and some Lengua Tacos. The food was phenomenal! And will make a trip through Morganton just for this again! The staff was super friendly and caring! The environment was super inviting! And the process were excellent! YUM!!!
