Food is great but service really stinks. Even when they aren’t busy. They have my favorite salsa there and it all I’ve been craving this while pregnancy.

My family eats here as often as we can. We have always had decent to great service and the food is better then many of the other Mexican establishments in town. The price is also hard to beat and when you are feeding a family, that is very important.

Great nacho plate. Awesomely-priced lunch specials. Solid burritos and enchiladas. Gratuitous serving sizes. Chips are made in the restaurant. The house salsa is a bit lackluster in spiciness but is smooth and relatively no-frills, tastes fresh and will accommodate all tastes. The best thing here is the fried Ice cream. There’s no Kellogg’s frosted flakes, no cut corners. A beautiful mix of cold and warm with a solid center! They definitely have the temperature down for a dish that can go so wrong so easily. It’s made, compiled and topped better than any other Mexican restaurant I’ve been to, and I lived in San Antonio for two years as an avid foodie. I’ll definitely be stopping by again.

Ate here for the first time and I had the pollo loco. It was good, tastes the same as other places. I do like the salsa because it is spicy and the service was good and fast. They have great happy hour deals on drinks.

Waited 5 minutes to before even being acknowledged and was greeted with«there are no tables.» A table opened up after 10 mins and we were seated. The waiter came over and did not even greet us. After ordering from a menu that was hard to follow and with too many items, the food for our party of 3 came out 5 minutes apart. The food was about the same as every other Mexican place in Cleveland. Poor service and mediocre food gives this place two stars. Next time I’ll just go to tres hermonos. Also I am writing this while waiting for the check. Very poor service.

My first visit to this Mexican restaurant. I was surprised at at several things. Reasonable prices, happy hour, 95 cent hard taco special on Mondays, fast service, and busy on a Monday night. Also, I can’t believe I haven’t been here. Features; they have TVs, decorations and sign specials on walls and hanging from ceiling, and really pleasant dining room. The service was fast. Everybody that works here seems to only know stuff on the menu as far as the English language concerned. Oh, of course only know the main words needed to check you out. Waitress keeps coming by asking«you doing ok». menu items ordered: 3 hard tacos for 95 cents each, sweet tea with meal and for desert(20oz draft of cider boys). They have an extensive menu with appetizers, nachos, salads, burritos, quesadillas, enchiladas, combinations, and even a vegetarian section on their menu. They also have deserts like fried ice cream, cheesecake, chocolate cake, and even a banana burrito which I never heard of before ever.

The food is ok — drive to Chattanooga for good Mexican food. Service is typically slow, but the restaurant is clean.

Absolutely the worst service I have ever had anywhere. Waited over 30 minutes for our food. Had to ask 3 times over one hour for our check while we were having a beer and talking with friends. Finally got up and went to the register and told them to ring me up. While waiting for them to ring me up I noticed their employees siting around eating and talking with each other instead of taking care of their customers. As my friends got up to go pay at the register since they wouldn’t bring the check one of the waiters accused them of trying to leave without paying. Food was ok which is why I have 2 instead of 1 star. I’ll never go back.

Growing up on the border of Mexico, I like real Mexican food. But being vegan means finding a good place that serves quality Mexican without relying on cheese to cover up a bland dish. El Cazadors fits the bill for me. First…loved the salsa. Tasted better than most of the stuff that is way too bland. Still not a chunky salsa… but for a tomato sauce salsa, the flavor was very good. Not very spicy(but yes, spicier than a lot of the bland stuff they call salsa here in Tennessee). The warm basket of chips was fine… as it worked to deliver the salsa. They brought out replacements chips and salsa when we near the bottom. I enjoyed a nice cold Negro Modello which came with a lime wedge. Place was PACKED on an early Friday night. Almost every table was full and parking was a jammed too. Service was fine. They do have a vegetarian section of the large menu, which was not as good for us as most of the items had cheese(not vegan) but a few items stood out, and we also noted other items on the menu that were not on the vegetarian section. Wife ordered a bean and rice burrito, quac on top with red sauce. I ordered the vegetarian enchiladas, hold the cheese and hold the sour scream. To my surprise, the enchilada was dry… as in no sauce. And in flour tortillas. Weird! Maybe there was a misunderstanding? Not sure, but the salsa was good on it. The insides were excellent. Smoky grilled taste onions, spinach, and assorted veggies. Served with a good rice and lettuce/tomato. Not sure what the point of lettuce tomato is on the side, but I ate it. I liked that the rice had some veggies and some potato in it. Not plain! The bean and rice burrito was good too. Wife was happy. Prices were reasonable and it looks like they have a good happy hour for margaritas. We need to come back. Note: They have a drive thru, but it is only for pick up of phoned in orders. Inside when full can be a little loud and crazy. You pay at the cashier.

As far as Mexican places in Cleveland goes, this is my favorite. Food is always fresh and the price is way cheaper than it should be.

Went for dinner on Saturday night, it wasn’t too busy. My boyfriend ordered Pollo Loco and I got number 6 combo. The salsa was so spicy I couldn’t even eat it. The chips tasted pretty stale. I don’t like how they serve them either, no jar of salsa. Especially when they don’t bring you more or ask if you’d like more chips and salsa. The food wasn’t very good. I thought the Pollo Loco was a very small portion for $ 9. My taco was bland and has no flavor. The red sauce on the enchilada was brown and my boyfriend said tasted like cinnamon. Beans were good. But I think this is the only Mexican place in town that puts all kinds of weird vegetables in their rice(even with the Pollo Loco). It has carrots, peas, potatoes, and more in it. Not my thing. Service was so-so. Waiter didn’t really check up on us or ask if we needed anything. Margaritas were pretty good too. I would much rather go to Las Mas or La Altena.

I love this place! It is the best Mexican restaurant in Cleveland. Always clean, great service, and food/drinks are to die for. They know what they’re doing.
