Pecina's Mexican Cafe - El Reno Location

We came as a group to Pecina's Mexican Restaurant, since it was located right across the street of the church where my brother-in-law's memorial service took place. We had party of approximately, 16 people and they cleared a sitting place to accommodate all of us. Since it was Valentine's Day this place was really busy and staff were well organized really welcoming and very efficient. The food was good nothing to brag about, and as with every Mexican restaurant all the salsas, and guacamole contains cilantro. Have news, not every Hispanic wants cilantro in their salsa or guacamole. The staff were very pleasant they did an outstanding job in meeting all our needs I don't think and one went hungry. This was my first time there, and since we were only there for a solemn occasion I can't say t

Stopped by Pecina's on our last visit to El Reno. Had a good time overall but it wasn't anything that blew us away. It's a small cozy place just southwest of downtown. Really clean both inside and out which was nice to see. The staff was polite but kept their distance with us. They seemed more relaxed with other customers who came in while we were there. Probably regulars. The white queso is as good as people say. And the tortilla chips were honestly some of the best we've had. Not greasy at all. They also brought out another cheese dip that was pretty tasty. The salsa was okay but nothing memorable. One thing that bugged us was how little they brought of everything. No refills either. We barely saw our server so we never got a chance to ask for more. Later on we noticed another table aske

The chips, tortillas, cheese and salsa were delicious. We enjoyed the meals we ordered. My hubby gave me a few bites of his churro with caramel and vanilla sauce, and it was so tasty! We only had to wait 5-10 minutes on a Friday night to get a table we wanted which is not bad at all! They were full and the place is small- but there’s enough room that my anxiety didn’t kick in, because it was busy, not crazy. They have an insane amount of people working the dining area, so the service was phenomenal. We didn’t have to wait long for anything. Everyone working was incredibly friendly. They must have just as many cooks in the back because our food came out crazy fast, but was somehow all fresh. Also, the decor and the patio were all beautiful! I love traveling and finding amazing Mexican resta

The restaurant is about less than 4 miles off route 40. On vacation, I told my husband I want to go to a new place for Taco Salad. Pecina has the highest rating on Google for the area. The appetizer, chips and two types of sauce is superb! I have never tasted sauce so delicious. My mouth is salivating writing the review. I ordered Chicken Taco Salad. OMG! The best!!! I checked out the restroom. It is clean and colorful. The next time I stop by the restaurant, I will order a different food item in the menu. I will also order a Chicken Taco Salad to go. We drove all the way to Las Vegas. I tried to find a similar tasting Taco Salad and appetizer. I did not find it.

This is a great little family owned Mexican restaurant in El Reno. It’s really popular with the locals and for good reason. The food is very good, the portions are large and the service is great. It’s a small place, so sometimes it gets a little crowded, but they have plans to move into a bigger location soon. Next time you’re out in El Reno, stop in for lunch or dinner. You’ll be glad you did.
