Disappointment numero uno... – We were looking to give some out of towners a treat at an authentic Mexican Restaurant. But... 1) We made reservations, but they weren't honored.

When a ... read more

Speak Spanish and get preferential treatment.. – I used to enjoy this place, but lately the staff have been shorting the portions on "Gringo" guests. Seeing the exact same thing being served to the person in front of me, but with larger portions, just because this person is Latino. I speak Spanish and the things the cooks and servers tell each other (in front of the customer no less!) about the person ordering is shocking! Rude and obnoxious behavior. I only went back to this joint on the insistance of those in my eating par... read more

Amazing authentic Mexican food. This place is great there is a market, deli, fast food, as well as sit down full menu service. My daughter and I sat down at El Cafe.

The best I have had since living in AZ. It was so good after we were finished I went to the deli and purchased 6 tamales and a container of pico de gillo, as well as the salsa verde. The service w... read more

Truly Mexican! – I've lived here all my life, this is it! Even with all the new business opening in TwinCities, they've remained authentic. Great food, we eat here all the time, (they seem to have very loyal clientele) We bring them new customers all the time, it's a great place, the people, the ambience, the decor, the smells, the music, I love coming here!

A hopping market serving heavenly authentic Mexican food with roots. – In Short The hub of the Hispanic-Latino community in St. Paul, this is a full-service grocery store, bakery, gift shop and cafeteria, all in one very busy space. Huge, colorful pinatas twirl over the heads of West Side neighbors seated at small window-side tables, watching the view of bustling Concord Street. Most options are served with refried beans and well-spiced rice; all dishes are made to order and can include mild or hot shredded beef or chicken.
