What People Are Saying About El Camino

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).

Great Mex Food & atmosphere!
by SearchingforGreatSandwich at Citysearch
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.
- Pros: solid mexican meal
- Cons: crowded & loud

Great food, good atmosphere, Did not need reservations!

I am from Portland and this place was a very nice local place. The food was hot and yummy! We had fish tacos, tacos, chicken and cheese enchiladas and tamales. All very good for decent price. Wait staff was great. I would say my fav. was the enchiladas.
- Pros: Food
- Cons: not really kid friendly (bring crayons, or something) & parking

Mediocre Mexican
by rmcmahon at Citysearch
Well I went here expecting a lot based on the reviews. I was sorely disappointed. First no chips and salsa - not a big deal but important to many. Second the fish tacos were over cooked and $20!!! Nothong like the amazing halibut tacos at Carte de Oxaca and ony $9!!! The margaritas were weak but tasty. Overall mediocre. Service on a Friday (early) was actually ok.
- Pros: None
- Cons: Expensive and mediocre
The Details on El Camino
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.
