Best Mexican around! My one year old will even eat the salsa. The ranchero enchiladas is my go to. The manager is so nice and very funny. The staff is awesome, eating here is an easy choice!

Load the family up on the burros and ride on over to El Rodeo for some tasty Mexican cuisine. It's like being at a fiesta from the moment you'll walk in the door.

The best part of the experience is that the prices were very reasonable. The food was average for Mexican food.

The food was pretty good. I travel for work, and I tried and eat birria tacos for quesabirria at any new mexican restaurant that I find myself around. They have a large selection of mexican soda such as jarritos. Of course.The inside makes you feel like you're south of the border. A rather large menu. Plenty to choose from. I believe this is the second time i've had el Rodeo. I would certainly order from there again i would recommend!
