I thought the food here was just average. The salsa was good and had the right amount of spiciness. We also received a small cheese quesadilla along with the chips. I had a combination platter of enchilada, burrito and tamale. My daughter had chimichangas. One of my daughter's chimichangas had a banana filling which we thought was strange. After dinner,... More

Sweet waitstaff, decent food, and a lively place. Several large parties enjoying themselves. At the end of the school year, I am sure this is a go to for college groups. What's not to like? Booze and decent food! I love Mexican food, and I found this place completely acceptable - nothing exceptional, but not bad at all. I liked... More

The food is really, really good Mexican. It seems that everything is just right for my taste. Salsa is spicy with a kick but not fiery hot. The food just delicious. The little extras are a nice touch. Before ordering, we were served the traditional chips and salsa. A few minutes later we were surprised with a small quesadila. After... More

Went here for a quick Mother's Day lunch. Great food - lots of attention to salsa, seasoning and such. Ambiance is very casual; service is friendly but not overbearing. Good place.

Excellent service, pleasant, colorful surroundings and a wide open dining space just a short walk to Congress Park and downtown Saratoga. The three of us enjoyed our entrées from the extensive and varied menu. As another reviewer stated, the meal was good but not exceptional. The chips and salsa, additional quesadilla, tasty dessert and complimentary shot of tequila raises the... More

Decided to stop here while visiting Saratoga Springs because my daughter loves Mexican food and the reviews were glowing. The interior is vibrant and lively. The service was kind and attentive. We received small free plates of yummy extras both before and after the meal (cheese quesadilla and apple flautas). Tasty salsa with free chips. The entree was good, but... More

Service was excellent and food and drink were great. After the meal, server came with a complimentary fried banana desert, said it was included, then discovered there was a b.d. at the table. All the servers came back to sing, had me where a sombrero and brought a free desert. During all this our server realized we did not get... More

We had SUCH a great time yesterday at El Mexicano. I wanted to take my mom to dinner for her birthday tomorrow, and she wanted Mexican but most of the Mexican places in Saratoga have been disappointing. Needless to say, this is our new favorite place. First: food quality. My mom and her husband tend to not really like anywhere... More

We find ourselves coming back again and again. The food and drinks are good, the service is fast and friendly. Even on a night with a packed house you get the consistency we have come to rely on. Chips and salsa included, always a plus when you are hungry and want something to snack on right away. Plenty of easy... More
