Reviews for El Caporal - Mexican Bar & Grill in Mason, OH

Not my first time dining here but it was a delicious end to an exhausting day. Great service and absolutely wonderful food! And... need I mention the margaritas! ???? Perfect! Thanks for a great night! Read more

The food makes me question who actually eats this. Go eat some of their "Grilled Chicken" and tell me that is good. You never... get an entrée without something major missing from it. On this order alone I got 3 tacos with the wrong meat with no toppings. Fajitas that came with no tortillas and two 10$ cheese quesadillas that had a few melted shredded cheese stripes inside. It'sa joke. Read more

We ate her on Sun. 8/14/22. We are from UT and were visiting our daughter and her family. I have Celiac so we of course had to... look up and call many restaurants that could accommodate Gluten Free food. This restaurant does not as of yet, have a “GlutenFree” or “ Gluten Friendly” menu but the manager (I assume he was the manager, server 0006) was extremely accommodatingand made sure the kitchen took precautions to make me a plate without gluten products. The food was Delicious and I had zeroissues! The one thing I was disappointed with is I could not eat the chips and salsa as the chips are deep fried in a vat withother products that contain gluten so I ordered a side salad to start. Thank your efforts and for a great meal. My daughter’sfamily has lived in OH for 5 months and said not only was it the best Mexican food they have ever had but that it was by far thebest meal they had had since they moved there, and they have sampled a lot of restaurants. They actually live 40 miles from theEl Caporal but said they will definitely make more trips to eat here. Kudos to the cooks! Note to manager: If you could get afew bags of Gluten Free corn chips from the store and keep them on hand for the people that have Celiac that would put the mealover the top! (Assuming the Salsa doesn’t contain gluten). Also, your hostess that night was very friendly and accommodating.The bathrooms were clean as was the restaurant and had a great ambience! Read more

Food tasted good, this place has happy hour 3-7. They have good selection of beverages. Even good menu is very big and there are... several options for vegetarians as well. Portion size is also good. Read more

This restaurant will not disappoint. This was our regular ‘go to’ Mexican restaurant when we lived in Mason. We moved to... Minnesota ten years ago and finally returned to find they still have great food and staff. Rarely have to wait to be seated andaway prompt with drinks, ordering, and bringing out the food. Endless supply of chips and salsa to be had. Inside and outsidedining options and great prices for the portions. Read more

Staying at a hotel a few miles away. My husband and I wanted a good Mexican place for dinner. Found this place on Google maps... with a high star rating...and we agree!! I had the original fajitas- with steak, chicken, shrimp, onions and peppers. Myhusband had a spinach quesadilla. Food came out in a decent amount of time, it was hot and it had a good flavor to it. Thesalsa, that came out with the chips, was a bit on the spicy side but it was really good. Read more

Visited here about a month ago based off a neighbors recommendation and recently visited again. We used to go to El Vaquero in... Mason but may make this our go to now for Mexican food. Prices and portions are good, steak and ingredients taste fresh.Margaritas are generous as well! Staff was very friendly both times we've been here. Read more

So glad we came here! All of the food came out crazy quick. Our server Enrique seemed to know everyone, and treated us the... same. Clean restaurant and fun atmosphere. We will definitely stop here next time we're down this way. Read more
