We thoroughly enjoyed our meal at this lovely Mexican restaurant, the service was brilliant and food was very nice, I would definitely recommend going here. Whilst visiting Scarborough a couple recommended EL Gringos to us and we're glad they did 👍
Genuinely the best Mexican I've ever had. I ordered the beef and chicken chimichanga and it was honestly so nice. The food came so quickly. The waitress Aman we had was so nice and attentive. She gave great service. 10/10 recommend
Great local restaurant, the food is very tasty and the service is always good.
A wonderful Mexican restaurant in Scarborough. The food portion was great and quantity was sufficient, and the taste was great as I thought it should be. The nachos were nicely poured with cheese but it made the nachos soggy rather than crispy. The burger was giant and full of cheese which was very tasty. The chicken fajitas were served on skillet which should have been sizzling hot but it wasn’t hot. It could have been hotter. The Enchiladas were too good and cheesy. Staff were helpful and kind. They even offered us birthday dessert complementary. The interior was so beautiful. There were big mexican hats also kept for hire in restaurants along with mexican music.
Booked a table over the phone. Staff were super friendly and table was already ready for when we arrived. Prices were great. We had the BBQ hot honey wings which were really tasty but mostly BBQ. Chicken was super soft though and tasty. Fajitas were lovely great portion size and very tasty. Gland slam was great, highly recommend the ribs they were lovely! Overall, lovely food and service, will definitely be back again
