" I wanted to explore some new Mexican restaurants in the area, and I hit the jackpot with El Lago! I have been searching for quality Mexican fare, and I found it! Their salsa is fresh, not just out of a jar, and the cheese dip is to die for. The staff was equally fantastic—quick and cheerful. Looking forward to going again to try more of their menu items! " (*Curated Review*)

" El Lago has become a staple for our family dinners! We love the atmosphere that feels both lively and comforting. The variety on the menu is impressive, and I recently tried their Poblano Relleno, which blew me away. The portion sizes are decent, and they strive hard to accommodate families. Highly recommend the fellas and ladies of El Lago for their diligent service and attentiveness! " (*Curated Review*)

" Still getting to know the Mexican food scene in Nixa, I decided to check out El Lago based on some recommendations. I was satisfied with everything from the warm chips and fabulous salsa to the Pork Carnitas that melted in your mouth! The staff took care of us kindly but seemed a little rushed. Overall, I left with a smile and a full belly. A truly authentic dining experience with a welcoming feel! " (*Curated Review*)

" I recently visited El Lago for my sister’s birthday party, and I was thoroughly impressed. We booked a table for ten and the staff was incredibly accommodating, helping us with group orders. The menu is vast, offering many traditional options, along with some unique creations. I tried the Shrimp Quesadilla, which was fresh and seasoned to perfection. The only downside was that it took a while for the food to arrive, likely due to the large order, but everyone agreed it was worth the wait. The atmosphere is great for celebrations, lively yet comfortable. " (*Curated Review*)

" I wasn’t expecting much, but El Lago surprised me with its great offerings! I sampled the vegetarian options, and they were not only filling but also bursting with flavor. The ingredients tasted fresh and were well-prepared. The only drawback was the wait time for the food to arrive, but with such quality, I can’t complain too much. I will definitely look forward to going back. " (*Curated Review*)

" I went to El Lago a few weeks ago with my kids, and they loved it. The children's menu had plenty of options, and the staff was extremely kind to my little ones. My husband and I shared some enchiladas and they were delicious, both flavor and freshness-wise. We all enjoyed the bright and colorful decor that added to the cheerful atmosphere. We will certainly be back as we were all satisfied! " (*Curated Review*)

" El Lago recently met my expectations after hearing all the hype. They have an intriguing dish called cecina that I'd never seen before. It's not the typical Mexican fare you'd expect but a wonderful addition to the menu. For a casual eatery, they provide impressive service and consistently high-quality dishes, which is hard to find. Will be looking forward to my next visit! " (*Curated Review*)
