Additional Information
Nothing disappoints when eating at El Mejicano. The food is authentic and delicious. Portions are more than enough. My favorite... part of the meal is when they bring salsa and chips to the table. Went through it, and they always bring a second serving. Iwill say equal to the food, the service is phenomenal. Most times, we get Berto as a server. He is beyond kind and gracious. Wewere taking home some soup, but asked the tortillas to be kept to the side. We forgot the bag on the table, and he literally ranout of the restaurant as we were pulling away in our car. Definitely go support this small business. Read more
My chum and I impulsively decided to mosey over here for an early lunch this past Friday. Neither one of us had been to Denville... in ages, though I definitely remember frequenting Carver's next door back in the day. The interior has a Mexican kitschy vibe -a lot of bright colors and festive decorations all over the place. The place was pretty empty when we got there, and we had ourpick of seating options; my chum is used to the finer things in life and immediately went for one of the booths. I chose toroll with the brunch menu, which is reminiscent of one you'd find at any standard American restaurant, but with anunderstandably ethnic twist - rather than, say, bacon and eggs, you're looking at beans and chorizo. Unique, but not sodrastically different that it's going to scare off more cautious eaters. I went with a chorizo, eggs and potatoes dish, thespecific name of which escapes me (I wasn't able to find a brunch menu online, so that's some constructive feedback for theirwebmaster). It was pretty tasty - I thought the chorizo was solid, flavorful and pared well with the scrambled eggs. I wasn't asenthusiastic about the potatoes, which were a little undercooked and greasy. I left most of those on the plate. My chum wentwith the chicken enchiladas (and wanted it noted that she was impressed with the available meat options for that particulardish) and enjoyed them. Nothing was earth-shatteringly amazing, but it did its job by and large. The price point was EXCELLENT.When my chum gave me the amount of the bill, I honestly thought for a moment that it was just the price for my portion of themeal. The generously portioned entrees are around $11 or so, which is great and arguably the strongest selling point of ElMejicano. The service was decent until the tail-end of the experience. Our waiter stopped by on a regular basis throughout mostof the meal to check in, and our food came by pretty quickly. For whatever reason, the waiter went MIA right around when Read more
I have to give this place four stars because they have great food! The absolute best tortilla soup I have ever had and great... enchiladas. I don't know what it was, but even their tortilla chips were great. I had a few mix-ups with my food but like everyother restaurant I'm sure they're shorthanded. First I got the wrong sauce on my enchiladas but they quickly remedied it. Thenthe second time I got chicken enchiladas rather than ground beef that I ordered. They were still really good. I have to say thestaff is very accommodating they took 20% off our bill. I can't ask for more than that. Quaint little place. We will definitelybe back. Read more
My clients wanted Mexican for lunch so they picked this place for lunch. They called in all the orders and I picked it up. When... I got the items things started to spill and didn't get better when I left. I ordered the shrimp fajita lunch special and it camewith a drink. When I got in the platter was jumbled because it spilled a bit. I dug in and the fajitas were just ok. I wasn'tfeeling the flavors. The rice was the best part of the dish. All in all I had a decent experience. Read more
