Great great food since the restaurants got new management. The food taste delicious and fresh. Staff are super friendly and restaurant was clean. This is defiantly our new spot.

In the old El Pueblito location, but way better! Food is ordered at the counter and served at your table. The chips are super fresh (they fry their own) and our dinners were hot, fresh, and delicious. You choose your taco toppings - choice of either cheese & lettuce or cilantro & onion. There are lots of meat choices. The chile relleno tacos (my favorite) were very good without being too greasy. The adult beverages options are beer and margaritas. The dining room was pretty full for around 8pm on a Friday, maybe because of the margarita special (1/2 price from 4-8pm on Fridays). Pros: Really great food, generous portions freshly prepared, nice spot for a quick dinner before the movie theater! Cons: The margaritas were too sweet for my taste. The chips were served with a very small portion of pico di gallo and hot & mild sauces in plastic squeeze bottles (no salsa to speak of). RECOMMENDATION FOR THE MANAGEMENT: There is an unused area at the back of the restaurant (looks like it may have been the full bar area of the previous establishment). This would be a great area for A SALSA BAR! When we lived in another area, we used to go out of our way to visit a casual Mexican spot that had a salsa bar (with around a dozen or so freshly prepared salsas) just because sampling the different salsas was such a fun activity to share with friends & family.
