El Marques Mexican Restaurant

We were passing through town and stopped by for dinner. We ordered 2 Tamales, Kids Quesadilla, 2 Carne Asada Tacos Plate, 3 A La Carte Tacos. The food was good and the service was good. It's a quiet place in a small quiet town.

I had a great experience at El Marques Mexican Restaurant in Tonopah. The food was not only delicious but also very reasonably priced. Their menu offers a wide variety of choices, and we went for the chimichanga with beef, which was packed with flavor and plenty of beef. We also tried the chicken enchiladas, which were equally tasty. The bonus was the complimentary chips and salsa, a pleasant surprise. The service was speedy, allowing us to continue our journey to Vegas without delay. El Marques was the perfect dinner stop on our way.

Had dinner our first night in Tonopah and then decided on this restaurant. Like many of the restaurants in Tonopah, they are quite dated, but the food and service are what counts the most. The staff was very responsive to our needs and a special “shout-out” to Weeze, our server. She made the dinner memorable. The menu consists of the standard variety of Mexican food dishes you might find in any similar type of restaurant. The food was good, and the serving size was reasonable, but having to pay for fountain soda refills was a little strange. The restaurant was clean and appears to be maintained in an acceptable manner. FYI, we did like the chips and salsa they provided prior to our main entrée.

Came in with a party of 13 without notice. They were able to seat us quickly, although there was no A/C in the section, an exterior door was opened that made the room comfortable. The food and service were decent, nothing exceptional. Had the steak y papas, steak cooked to order med rare. There were no complaints in our party on anything ordered. Tonopah does not have a lot of dining options, this is one of the better ones overall in my opinion. Would definitely return upon a future visit to town.

Waited 10 minutes before someone came from the back to seat us. It appeared like the waitress was the only one working. She took our order went to the kitchen and 5 minutes later brought our food. Nothing was cooked from scratch at this restaurant. Canned chicken for the enchiladas and sauce from a can. Save your money.
