Reviews for El Puente in St. Charles, IL
I got the puente enchiladas and they were really good. My friend got steak and it was ok. We also got ceviche and guacamole for... the appetizers and they were good. Salsas were ok and we got two palomas which were delicious. Our waitresses was really politeand friendly and we liked the decor. It was not busy when we went which is a plus for us. Read more
Good food at a fair price delicious chips very nice warm salsa and the other one's not too hot. Good portions.
We went in to el puente over an hour before close excited for some margaritas and pina coladas because it is a Mexican... restaurant after all! We got there and we are told they aren?t serving any frozen drinks anymore. Which was a disappointment. Weordered our food and my husband got the ?tacos el pastor? which in the description came with THREE tacos rice and beans. When weget our meal he only has received two tacos, our waitress comes and asks how everything is and we explain that he was supposedto get 3 tacos with his meal. And she says ?because you got flour tortillas you only get 2.? We were both shocked at this, neverhave I ever been given less than at any Mexican place because of the tortilla that was chosen, and we frequent different Mexicanfood joints almost weekly. We were never told that he would be getting less food when ordering nor does it say it ANYWHERE onthe menu. We were charged the same amount for 1 less taco, and the taco was only half full. The food was very bland. Overall wewill not be going back there and feel that we were scammed a little. Service was very good, that is why they are getting 2stars. Read more
I had the Steak and grilled vegetables quesadillas plate with rice and beans for $20 including tip. (no drinks) Server was quick... and food was served fast near closing time (8:00pm) It's really just steak fajitas with cheese sandwiched between one largefolded flour tortilla minus a fajitas hot plate. Grilled onions and green/red peppers and strips or chunks of steak =fajitas. Nothing special about the steak. Wish the beans were not refried and steak better seasoned. They do serve corn chipsand salsa while you wait but the salsa is not pico de gallo. The warm salsa was like tomato paste - no flavor. I feel they arecutting corners at this place. I wouldn't come back. Read more
This place is amazing. The food was made with so much care and clear experience. It reminded me of my fathers restaurant when I... was little. If you are in the area and looking for Mexican food, do yourself a favor and come here you will not bedisappointed. Read more
I'd been to this restaurant multiple times. Everytime I get half stale chips and flat soda. Perhaps they need to upgrade their... machines. The margaritas, rice and beans are good, but other than that the food is O.K for the price you pay. The chimangasdon't have the red sausage and cheese that goes on top which was disappointing. The cheese enchiladas are good, and the carneasada was not bad. You get a red spicy salsa and a non spicy. The none spicy taste like tomato sauce. Would probably not comeback or recommend unless they make a drastic change. Read more
