★★★☆☆ 3.0 Alejandro Avalos · Jul 2025

The food was amazing. I got the avocado salad and the flan for dessert. It's a really nice place, the bar is separated, which is nice. The service was not good. I had to keep asking for water. The cups are too small it was a little busy, so i understood, but i had to keep reminding her. asked about the special for the day she didn't know what it was, but its on the menu she said they hadn't told her and never even went to ask.

El Gallo Negro in Windsor is way good. The salsa is nothing short of incredible….bursting with flavor and the perfect complement to their dishes. The food is consistently fresh, delicious, and served with care. Whether you're indulging in their mole enchiladas, tacos, or burritos, every bite is a delight. The service is always top-notch, with friendly and attentive staff who make you feel right at home. And let's not forget the drinks! Their cocktails are especially fantastic, with a great selection of tequilas and mezcal that pair beautifully with the menu. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, making it a perfect spot for a casual meal or a special night out. If you're in Windsor and craving authentic Mexican cuisine with a modern twist, El Gallo Negro is a must-visit. Highly recommende

★★★★★ 5.0 Luis Enrique Martinez · May 2025

Amazing Mexican cuisine and drinks! You must try the mole — a rich, traditional dish originally from Oaxaca, Mexico. The chef is also from Oaxaca, bringing authentic flavor to every bite. The micheladas are the best around, and don’t miss the house mezcal — it’s exceptional. Would you like a version for a review, social media post, or menu description?

Lorena is the main reason I come to El Gallo Negro! She is always courteous, attentive and makes you feel like familia. On top of having the best margaritas around, their food is authentic in every bite. 10 out of 10 every time!

★★★★★ 5.0 Tammy Chin · Dec 2024

You MUST TRY!! El Gallo Negro is a total gem. First time in and truly knocked me out my socks. The food was delicious- so rich in flavor and the jamaica agua fresca was so refreshing and not too sweet. You can tell they care about the quality of their dishes. The staff were friendly and accommodating. The restaurant is clean, well decorated, and offers several dining spaces for people to enjoy. I would come here more if I lived closer.
