I have been going there for over 20 years and I went to go order on all meat burrito when they have their specials and they ran ... out of ground beef. I was very disappointed Read more
Been going to El Sombrero for 39 years. I always get the same thing. A dry deluxe burrito. Taste just as good as it did in 1983... !! Cant thank my friend enough for showing me this place. Read more
I ordered 2 chicken fajitas for my Mom and I via drive thru. Both of the fajitas were cold and completely filled with cheese and... onions...there was hardly any chicken and a few pieces of green peppers. In addition my fajita had ground beef pieces in it.????(Which leads me to believe that they are not doing a good job at separating the meat or utensils.) Read more
The wet ground beef burritos are very delicious if you love cheese and flavor this is it.
Came on a Wednesday to get some wet burritos during the wet burrito deal day ($1 off each wet burrito you get, I think).... Tuesdays is deal day for dry burritos. Super good wet burritos! Got a chicken and bean burrito. Very nice and helpful staff. Iwas a little annoyed that they still put lettuce in my burrito when I asked for none, but oh well. Just be prepared for the longline if you go on a Wednesday. Read more
Convenient, cheap but GOOD food. Has a drive thru which makes it a good hidden lunch. Portion sizes are decent for what you pay.... Will go visit again to get something other than chicken tacos! Read more
I had never been here but I know it's been around for a long time so I wanted to give it a try. My partner and I got a chicken... fajita, chicken hard taco, chicken tostada, chips with salsa, and a Coke to drink. The tostada was very tasty and the chips werelight and crunchy with good seasoning. The food was hot, freshly put together, and severed politely. Unfortunately, that's wherethe good part of my review ends. The chicken fajita was more of a chicken fajita burrito, which is actually a decent idea for adrive through, but I think of fajita chicken as being very flavorful and this was not. The peppers and onions within the fajitaburrito were cooked through but they lacked any grilled/seared flavor and seemed like they were blanched and then slid around aflat top to reheat. They put too much of the typical TexMex cheese blend inside and also added lettuce which just gets soggyfrom the heat of everything. My partner thought her taco was just ok, but didn't have much else to say other than that. If youwant cheaply made TexMex there are other places in the city that would accommodate you with overall better food. Read more
