Reviews for El Mariachi Mexican Restaurant in Watertown, WI
If you are looking for authentic look somewhere else, if you want American/Mexican food this place is ok. Nothing we were... served had spice, but theres a selection of hot sauce on the table. Portions are reasonable, price could be better, a quartercup of mashed avocado was almost $6.00 a meal for 2 was $41 total. The small condiment cup of pico de gallo was $2.00. Over$3.00 for a glass of soda....Then they print a "suggested tip" at the bottom of the bill, we asked where to pay and were curtlytold "up front" so we went up front and stood there almost 10 minutes before we went to find someone to give our money to. Thentheres the suprise surcharge if you want to use your debit card. we wont be coming back This was particularly disappointingbecause my husband and I dine out maybe 4 times a year. Read more
My son and I stopped here on a whim. We decided to try this one when it popped up as a place to eat when we finished shopping.... Glad we did. We both enjoyed it a lot. I tried a vegetarian option and he tried the Texas taco salad with 3 different kinds ofmeat in it (steak, chicken and shrimp). We both liked our dishes. His meat was seared and tastes really good. We will definitelybe back when we are in the area. Read more
What can I say El Mariachi delivers the goods. Located just off hwy 26 in Watertown in a strip mall this little Mexican... restaurant serves up big. Fast and friendly service with amazing food. Read more
I had the opportunity to take my family to El Mariachi. It was a pleasant visit. It was about 6:30pm on a Wednesday. We were met... with a smile and seated right away. It was actually kind of a different experience having dinner here vs having lunch. We hadabout 3 waiters/waitresses, waiting on us. One person would take our drink order. While they were getting our drinks someoneelse would bring us salsa and chips. Then the next waiter would pop in and take our order. Overall it was a great experience.The food is always amazing and didn't take long to get, maybe 20 minutes for 2 adults and 3 kids. There were 2 birthday's therewhile we were there, they had a cool little song and put a sombrero on your head to celebrate your special day. My onlysuggestion would be getting the bill a little sooner than we did. If were asking for to go boxes, that mean were ready to go. 3young kids is pure chaos to try and contain in confined spaces when we're trying to leave. I should have to ask for my bill,it's an automatic thing. Read more
The shrimp salad is an absolute must- my all time favorite. The shrimp was steaming hot, just the right amount of salad dressing... with asparagus. The El Super is definitely a 2 person job- delicious mix of all the meat and veggies with that traditionalMexican flare and seasoning. Lime margarita also not bad. Highly recommend Read more
I always enjoy el mariachis. I think their prices are fair and portions are good and food delicious. I usually get a lime... jarrito with my meal everyone I eat there but they told me they don?t carry them anymore. They also don?t have any appetizerslike cheese dip or anything. Food was good as always but when I went to check out they charged me $3 for a service fee. I wasplanning on leaving a $10 tip but I left $7 instead. Just know if this service fee continues your taking money from yourwaitstaff since people won?t tip as much. Also this service fee should be posted by the register and not a surprise when you getthe bill back. Also the raspberry mojitos are delicious. Read more
Excellent!! The food was hot and delicious. The staff was friendly and helpful.
Unlike many places this restaurant has the waiter walking around constantly without intruption to glance and ensure all... customers are happy. The salmon and shrimp is delicious and the chicken fajitas all though appetizing could use some moreflavor. All though I am Latino and love flavor and heat. It was still something I would eat again. This is a place that couldvery easily with a few upgrades be on a bigger booming scale like red lobster or olive garden. Please tip your servers well.They deserve it and our server was on point. Please order the larger margarita it will get you on your level. ....will go backand do another review for sure. Read more
