Reviews for El Santo in New Westminster, BC
The Fish Tacos and Horchatas were delicious. Not sure the exact name of the other drink my friend had, but it tasted great, too.... ???? This place has a nice ambience to have a lunch out with your friends, and I didn't think the prices were too expensive forthe quality. The servers are really nice and the place itself is very clean. However, I will say that the churros me and myfriends decided to have after our meal did seem a bit undercooked. Read more
Amazing food and service! We came in as a large party of 10 and the waiting staff was very accommodating and friendly to get us... seated. They provided us with more than enough room for 10 people and even offered up another table for even more room. Thewaitress we had was exceptionally friendly and helpful when it came to checking up on us, making sure our waters were topped upand ensuring us our meals will come. With such a large party and a busy Friday, the food was expectedly slow but the waitresskept apologizing about it and did what she can to ease our wait. We ordered the fish taco, barbacoa taco, tortilla soup and atrio of guacamole. The tortilla soup was huge for what it was and tasted really good with generous servings of chicken andtortilla. I would highly recommend getting a chip and dip of your choice, we went with the guacamole, because the chips arebottomless and homemade with very nice seasoning. The waitress kept on giving us refills which was great! The tacos weredelicious as well and came with generous servings of meat. Overall a fantastic experience and would come back for sure! Read more
I wish I would have found El Santo sooner. Been here a few times already and have always had a great time. Amazing tacos. Have... tried their pescado, barbacao, al pastor and lengua. Honestly, lengua was likely the best with either pescado or barbacao comingclose 2nd. Real fresh tasting ingredients and great quality as well. The tacos aslo come with either a green or red sauce whichhelps make them even better. Definitely try their churros. Probably thr favorite part of eating here has been the churros.Comes with their creme de leche dipping sauce. Just the perfect pairing. A little more on the $$$ side but, have throughlyenjoyed each visit here. Read more
Great vibe, service, food and cocktails. The play on flavours was delightful. The whole fish is a must if you have worked up the... appetite for you. The servers even offer to debone it for you. Loved it. Read more
A great Mexican establishment with a fairly wide Saturday brunch menu and delicious non alcoholic cocktails. We had the Trio... de salsas (most amazing corn chips), fish tacos (Pescado), ceviche, Costlitta Benedict which had a cornbread base andEnchiladas Suizas. Everyone enjoyed their meals which hit the spot. To drink we had Squirt soda and Zero proof Mangonada with ato die for chamay and tajin rim on the glass. Yummy. Decent prices. Read more
Ambiance is great. Staffs are friendly. Food presentation is great. It's just the food is a little bit salty. Corn gnocchi is... also way too dry compared to the ones I had in Mexico. Overall, a nice place to have a drink. Read more
My boyfriend and I celebrated our Valentine?s Day over here. Nice atmosphere, friendly staffs. We?d ordered twin cocktails, a... guacamole trio, pork and beef tongue tacos. My boyfriend said the pork tacos were a bit dried, but overall they tastedgood. Unfortunately they don?t have pictures on the menu so it?s hard for us know what the dishes likes like. We will checkingon Instagram before we go next time Read more
nice cocktails and delicious tacos! entrees were ok - really impressive presentation but the flavour just wasn?t there.... surprised to say the entrees fell bland. (tuna + corn gnocchi was disappointing; chorizo stuffed chicken leg was nice butmissing something). apps are great! potatoes, guac and all tacos are fantastic! i?ll stick to the basics next time Read more
