      Why is there no menu?

      A:

      Good question! I tried the generic online one and they don't use the same menu as the other El Paso's!

      First...it's New Orleans Louisiana!!!...not south of the border. If you can't appreciate that upon walking in, perhaps you need to rethink your choices!

      If you post a bad review a Mexican food restaurant because you don't agree with the way they make their margaritas, you may need a rationality check!

      Great service, these people care about the way the food is prepared. Recipes are very New Mexican.

      Everything we tried was wonderful.

      Great tequila selection...which is rare in New Orleans!

      This is the place to go if you're looking for a good deal on margaritas! From 3 to 6 PM they have a two for one deal for frozen or on the rocks margaritas for $8! The food is well priced and flavorful, I got my son, the kids beef enchilada plate for $7 and it was a lot of food! The service is always great, the hostess and waiters are always nice. They have New Orleans wall art and TV screens if you'd like to watch a game or the news while you eat! They completely remodeled the place and it's super cute!

      Overall, the food was just ok. The chips and salsa & bean dip were mediocre. I ordered the enchiladas supreme, the cheese, chicken and beef were good but the bean salad enchilada was not good. I felt the beans weren't fresh. My husband ordered the fajitas trio, he enjoyed it.

      They had 2 for 9 small margarita specials

      Super tasty Mexican food! They serve you beans and salsa as starters. Nice variety of drinks and very friendly staff. If you're in NOLA around Garden District and feel like fresh food, you should totally check out this place!

      Carnitas taco was dry & tough. Service was underwhelming.. never saw waiter after he took the order. Will not visit again.

      We popped in here early on a Tuesday only to find out they had 2-for-1 margs! We started with queso with chorizo and guacamole. The queso was delicious. The guac was just good. Highlight was our server was attentive so we always had plenty of chips! For dinner, we had a steak quesadilla, California burrito, pollo loco and a steak chimichanga. The pollo loco was great and super flavorful. The chimichanga was good but just pretty tiny. The quesadillas were your run of the mill but we're also pretty tiny (makes sense when you get two). On the other hand, the burrito was massive. Overall, the food was good and the 2-for-1 is definitely a draw. I'm sure we'll be back again!

      We (Party of 3) went here on a Tuesday around 5:30pm and they were not busy. They had no specials on Tuesday. Our waiter was not overly welcoming and did not come to check on us often. When we received our check there was already a 20% gratuity on the check. On the menu it says that a 20% gratuity was only added on party's of or greater. I had confronted the waiter about this and his response was that a 20% Gratuity was added on all tables on Tuesday. That was not made clear anywhere. Will not be coming back.

      water is the best thing on the menu. 0 stars if possible. terrible service and food. house margs taste like thick syrup. way over priced. apparently tostadas and chalupas are the same thing. Server constantly made mistakes. This would've been ok if she was apologetic or even just fixed the mistakes, but she insisted on lying and blaming her mistakes on us. She also wanted to charge us to fix her mistakes. Please just avoid this place if you can.

      iced water in plastic cup is the best thing served.
