My favorite place of all time in El Paso! Always looking forward to L&J's when I visit. The service is always great and everyone is so friendly including the owners. They have the best hot sauce and be sure to order the queso with the real green chiles! more

The location of this place seems a little bit odd since it is right next to a cemetery but I think it gives this joint a lot of character. The food is nothing out of this world but it's pretty good and it's packed during lunch time. On some nights they have pretty good beer specials and they allow food... more

I am in love with several Mexican food places in El Paso, but this may be my favorite. I LOVE L&J! I especially their guacamole tacos, made with amazing guacamole and their fantastic tortilla shells. They have amazingly delicious and super-fresh food, super-fast and friendly service, and wonderful red and green salsas, too. This is a locals place and I... more

Got this off TA. Very good food. Large portions. Fast service. Friendly. We enjoyed everything but the salsa - not sure what it contained but we are used to TexMex so maybe that was the problem. Otherwise, everything was well done. Lots of locals there. more

Took the advice of one of the hotel employees and visited L&J, it was a great choice! I had the signature Chicken Enchiladas with an Asada Taco on the side. They make the enchiladas flat instead of rolling them and then they covered the top in slices of incredible green chili's. The beans on the side with chips and pico... more

One of the better choices for mexican food in El Paso - not much for atmosphere in the high class sense, but this place is designed to eat in! The bar is pretty good, but lacking in selection. You come here to eat mexican food: Period. more

Grab the first parking space you can find, even if it's a block away, and hurry inside this place that is teeming with noise, people, and the fragrances of real Mexican food. The standout is the hauntingly delicious green-chile salsa. It is like no other I've ever had and is reason enough to go. I haven't had any dish there... more

My mom and I ate at L & J Cafe last Saturday around 4:00. First of all, the place was packed, even at 4:00 in the afternoon. We were comfortably seated at a table, but within reaching distance of two other tables. The service was prompt, the food was excellent! I had the green chile enchiladas, which I would recommend.... more

The L & J cafe is a great place to eat lunch on a weekday! The food is absolutely wonderful. It has been in business since 1927 & is located in an older part of town near a cemetery. It has a large bar area and a couple of small rooms with tables. Nobody goes for the atmosphere- only the... more
