In Short
A colorful dining room caters to sit-down eaters who want to hear each other talk. Drinks start strong and get stronger as the bartender learns your name. There are only a handful of entrees served, but taco lovers aren't left out. El Camino gets closer to authentic Mexican than most, with soft-shell versions of the grilled steak, fresh fish tacos and the puerco adobo (braised pork shoulder).

El Camino had a simple, but strong menu. No mind-blowing options, but overall well flavored and balanced. If you're looking for a simple Mex-Tex meal try them out. Try the fried plantains! We went on a Saturday evening and it was crowded and loud. This is a great place to start the night over drinks, but not a quiet gathering place for family. The waitstaff was friendly & courteous.

I love this place. The food is amazing, the ambiance is great and drinks are strong. Food is very authentic and interesting. Staff are knowledgable, but at times can be a bit snobbish. It is definitely true that this is where the beautiful people hang out. The bar is a great spot for single people. I met my own husband there---12 years ago. :)

This place is good for feeling like you've had a little trip down south. I've had their enchiladas, and they are tender, fresh with good sauces. Their drinks are delicious. Their coconut cake is to die for. Great place for dates or groups.

What to Drink:
The house margarita shakes fresh lemon-lime juice and triple sec into the mix, but keeps the sweetness to a pleasant minimum.
