" Fantastic Mexican food! I was amazed by the quality. The salsa was fresh and full of flavor. The staff was remarkably friendly, making the whole experience enjoyable. The only downside was the decor; it could use an update. Overall, I would recommend El Puerto though; you won't be disappointed! " (*Curated Review*)

" Rating this place is hard because I really wanted to love it! The service was friendly, but the food didn’t wow me. My shrimp quesadilla was quite ordinary, and my friend’s dish didn’t look appealing. I might give it another chance, but I’d probably stick to the more popular dishes next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" This restaurant has the feel of an authentic Mexican cantina. The décor is inviting, and the staff is welcoming. I was impressed by the quality of the tacos; they had a perfect balance of flavors! Also, the portion size was generous. The only downside was the wait time, as it was quite busy, but the food made it all worthwhile. Definitely coming back! " (*Curated Review*)

" We stumbled upon El Puerto while passing through and were so pleasantly surprised! The guacamole was fresh and bursting with flavor. I ordered a combination plate that included enchiladas and tacos, and it was a great way to sample different dishes. The ambiance was festive, creating a warm dining experience. I would not hesitate to stop by again next time we're in the area. " (*Curated Review*)

" We had a mishap with our order, but the staff immediately corrected it and ensured we were satisfied. I was really impressed by how willing they were to make things right. The food was still enjoyable; I had the shrimp tacos, which were flavorful, just wish they included a bit more shrimp. The ambiance is great for families, and there are plenty of options on the menu. " (*Curated Review*)

" On my visit, the food was great! The shrimp fajitas were sizzling and the portion was just right! The service was a bit slow, but the friendly staff made up for it. I love the atmosphere, very upbeat and colorful. All in all, a nice place to eat with friends or family. " (*Curated Review*)

" El Puerto has a wonderful family atmosphere. We celebrated my sister's birthday here, and the staff went out of their way to make it special. The food was fantastic, especially the carne asada! Their desserts are also worth trying. Just a friendly reminder: reservations might be a good idea on weekends. " (*Curated Review*)
