★★★★☆ 4.0 Rebecca Hatten-Carr (Becca) · Feb 2026

Quick service. Flavors were absolutely on point. I do wish my steak was a bit more tender. Would visit again.

★★★★★ 5.0 Trace Alvis · Dec 2025

The decorum is beautiful, the staff was definitely worth their salt, too. I was a plain Jane today and only got a burger and some fries, but it was absolutely delicious. You’re committing a sin if you skip this joint.

★★★★★ 5.0 Jessica Blitz · Sep 2025

Top notch food. Excellent service. Highly recommend and can’t wait to go back! We had a VERY large group show up, without notice. We were not only welcomed but received better service than I’ve received at some places with only 2 or 4 people and we had almost 20. The food came out hot and well organized, everyone was courteous and friendly, and coming and going was a breeze! They even sang and danced with a few from our group to celebrate birthdays (young and old). I cannot say enough wonderful things about El Tejano!

★★★★★ 5.0 Tim Gobel · Aug 2021

Excellent service! Very good food, nice atmosphere! I will definitely be coming back here to try some other items! I had the California burrito with shredded chicken but I got into eating it before I took a picture. IT was very good. Sophie told me that this chicken soup that they have is excellent! The waiter walked by me with an order of the soup and it smelled delicious so I will definitely take Sophie's advice in the future.

I had the chimichanga with steak instead of ground beef - absolutely delicious! Service was friendly and very fast. I will definitely be coming back.
