Reviews for El Imperio Mexican Food in Madison, WI
I\'ll be honest, it\'s a small place but it has some lovely decorations. The service was quick and food got out to us readily.... That being said the staff is unreliable and condescending, and the food itself is bland when it comes out properly.\n\nMysignificant other ordered her food very specifically, because she has certain allergies. Not only did we have to get the foodtaken back twice because it came out wrong both times but the second time it came out full of something she specifically askednone of be on it and it\'s something she was allergic to. Only to have someone from the kitchen come out and tell her what sheordered (I\'m not sure in what restaurant this is ever considered a good idea, but it was especially bad here)\n\nShe was afraidthat she left her debit card there that evening, it took an hour and a half of calls and being run around before finally theysaid they didn\'t have it. They could have just said that instead of three different we\'ll call you back in 15 minutes kind ofb******* things.\n\nFor my money the food was bland and uninspired. Especially in the Madison area you can do a lot better, Idon\'t know how one makes steak that tasteless in Mexican food but El Imperio found a way. Though I\'m not sure how much one canexpect from a Mexican food place mounted right next to an adult toy store so...\n\nEither way I suggest you save your moneyunless you\'re really desperate. There are plenty of places in the area that do a lot better and they\'re just a few minutesdown the road. And I\'ll promise you that they aren\'t willing to argue with you over what you ordered.

We attended the grand opening today because we\'ve been waiting for them to open for months! Our expectations were high and the... quality of their food didn\'t disappoint. The camarones a la diabla was excellent, and something we will definitely go back for.The pastor tacos were good and can hold their own against the other restaurants in the area. Things were a bit hectic because itwas so busy, but that should be expected for a grand opening with a restaurant working out it\'s kinks. Looking forward to goingback soon! Read more
