★★★★★ 5.0 Shanz Dev · Jan 2026

Such a fabulous time had at this restaurant, it is amazing! The food, the staff, the atmosphere, and just the overall happiness of everyone in the restaurant makes you feel good. Absolutely wonderful food, even got takeout to go and will definitely return.

★★★★☆ 4.0 Nick Stone · Jan 2026

The last dinner we had here was great. From the cheese dip to the taquitos were very good, even the kids chicken strips were fantastic. Unfortunately my steak was very over cooked and dry. Everything else was delicious.

★★★★★ 5.0 Mark McGillis · Nov 2025

Our family loves El Caporal! Service is always fantastic and the food is great too. Our kids really like it and can always find something for everyone on the menu. Enchiladas are a favorite and the Pollo Chipotle. Drinks are generous and tasty as well. The prices also make it an affordable place to take the family out for dinner too!

★★★★★ 5.0 Nina Portillo · Feb 2026

Very well cooked and seasoned food, very authentic. Not too salty or greasy. The jumbo margaritas were perfect as well. Definitely will be returning for date night

Freddy was absolutely wonderful in helping me navigate my celiac allergy! He explained that their chips are cooked in a separate fryer, so there’s no risk of cross-contamination, and he was very knowledgeable about the seasonings used on the meats. He guided me to options that were completely gluten-free, which gave me such peace of mind. It was so refreshing to enjoy a truly authentic Mexican meal without any worry and leave with a full, happy belly! I’ll definitely be returning!
