The Vegetable Fajitas with the veggies burned by request is something I have to keep coming back for. Their chips and salsa are amazing. I love this place.

We loved the ogden el matador (now closed), we love the bountiful one too. The never ending free salsa and chips are so delish and always get a side of cheese with it. Usually get enchiladas or tamales, but the Bravo burrito is always yummy since it has the meat of your choice plus rice and beans inside the burrito. My favorite is the sasparilla bottles or the pina colada specialy drinks or the horchata is amazing too. Plenty of parking, clean restrooms.

My wife and I decided to go out to dinner with our younger son. We got there about 8:30 on a Saturday night (half an hour before closing). We were seated very quickly and the waiter came out promptly. All three of us decided to get the Grilled Chicken El Paso burrito ($15.99) and it came with rice and beans. Little on the pricier side, but everywhere is getting that way. While we waited they gave us chips and salsa. The salsa was really good, it was warm and chunky. One of the better salsas I've had before. Our meal came out really quickly and was well portioned. This burrito was a little different, kind of a cross between fajitas with the vegetables and a burrito. We all got a smothered with a tomatillo sauce. All three of us really liked it. The atmosphere was consistent with most Mex

So usually El Matador is pretty good! Tonight it was a different story! First there we're seven of us. FOUR big men two women and a young man. They seated us in a cramped booth. We should of said something, that's on all. Next our drinks took a long time and one of the drinks didn't come till after we got our meals and the waiter spilled the drink all over the table and almost on me! Next when our meals came they mixed one of ours with the table next to us! Which was a veggie burrito and we ordered a chicken with smothered Verde. We had to ask two times to get the chicken and Verde! We asked for extra salsa never received it! The refined beans on my meal look like they sat under a heat lamp and were dry and uneatable! Also charging for a refill on drinks is a bit crazy when you spend o
