Honestly the nicest wait staff I have ever experienced. Also, this is a great value at an incredible price! Tons of flavor and tons of meat on the quesadilla! Definitely a great experience! I'm in town visiting from Houston with my little girl and we decided to meet some family here. So glad we came today!
Family and I was on our way to MS on Interstate 55 and decided to stop at El Jimador for lunch. Never been to the place just seen it on our Google search for Mexican Cuisine. Our waiter was the nicest guy and super friendly. I had the fajitas and they were seasoned perfectly and the best I ever had at a restaurant. The rest of the family said there food was great as well. Before leaving the waiter asked if we wanted to go drinks. That attention to detail with customers goes a long way. This will be a regular stop from now on while traveling though Hammond.
Excellent food and service. We go nearly every Tuesday with a large group and they always accommodate and keep our tickets straight!
We stopped here while in Hammond on our 20th wedding anniversary. The food was great, the service was wonderful. We had the privilege of sitting next to a young mother and her 4 kids. Never in my life had I heard such respectful and polite children. Every time the waiter went to them, it was please and thank you. When we left I told the mom she was doing a great job raising her kids.
Excellent lunch specials even on weekends. Excellent service. Chatted a little in Spanish but they spoke English perfectly. Free chips and salsa. If your significant other is in a bad mood from hunger, bring them here.
I highly recommend this place. We went last night and the food was amazing. The customer service was just as good. I brought my mom and my nephew. My nephew ended up throwing up all over the table as soon as the food came out. I felt so bad about it but they took care of the situation. I went to clean it and they told me just to sit at another table and they will take care of it. They brought us out fresh food and served us as if nothing ever happened. Super friendly and amazing food. I will be a life time customer
This restaurant is housed in an old Shoney's restaurant. I admit that I was a bit skeptical when we pulled in to the parking lot, I had not heard of any of my friends trying the place. The service was really good. The food was pretty good. The chips and salsa were fresh and tasty. Prices were good. I will definitely return for another visit!
Definitely the best Mexican food in So. Louisiana. Better than anything in BR. We go there often even though it's a little bit of a drive for us. Highly recommended!!Can't beat the prices and the service.
3-1-2022 Stopped in for Taco Tuesday but no luck since it was Mardi Gras, but the fajitas were spot on as usual.Previously... just have to say the last several visits have once again been fantastic. In fact I'm on here updating the review, because the whole family is asking to pick up food tonight for dinner!!! Back to full stars.Previously... first less than stellar experience. Came in for lunch and the food was great... the guacamole on the other hand was old... and obviously so. We sent back our order of extra guacamole hoping for a remake, but none was offered. He even brought more of the old stuff on my fajitas plate, also sent back. The pina coladas were out and the strawberry margaritas ran out after the first one... hope this place isn't going down already! Lowered two stars.Previously... Just visited again and everything was great, upped my rating!Previously...We heard that this was opened by the same people that previously owned El Tapatio... which was one of our favorite tex-mex spots for years. Our party of 5 was seated immediately and the service was great and friendly. They brought plenty of salsa, but it just didn't have the zing it used to have... a little too much on the tomatoes. The fajitas were great portions as usual for a great price. The chicken, steak and shrimp were all top quality meats. The kids had quesadillas, both shrimp and chicken... and seemed satisfied. The youngest had a kid's nacho plate with added jalapeños. Our adult drinks were great too. So... definitely worth a visit... the salsa is not as it was before... but that's just my opinion. We'll be back soon.
Attempted to give them a try today, and although the place was far from full, we were told that it was and that there would be a 30 minute wait. Shortly after, the white family behind us without a reservation was seated. We were a small party of 3 and they were close to 10. smh
