Great service and food. Much better than the one in Bartlett This is #1 El Mezcal

Nice clean establishment with friendly servers and the owner is super nice! Came in today the place an Uber eats order but had an issue with pricing at checkout and the owner was extremely helpful and patient while I worked out all the kinks.

THE BEST MICHILADAS IN TENNESSEE, If your looking for a taste of California/tijuana you must try this location. Great friendly staff, delicious food and peaceful atmosphere.

A great little spot for a quick lunch or nice dinner. Close to I-40 on Hwy 64 in the plaza with grocery store. Easy access for take out. Nice dining area & they also have a very nice patio area too. The staff is very friendly and helpful, the food is very good. The atmosphere is welcoming and clean. Covid guidelines in place must wear a mask. They have dine in service as well as take out. I was in to make alarge lunch order for take out and the server was very helpful. I highly recommend to anyone in this area looking for a place for a nice Mexican meal.

This is one of my favorite Mexican restaurants! The food is always excellent, good portions and everything perfect! The attention is very good too. I always have quality time here with my family. I don’t understand why they have such a low rating. I recommend them!

Good service, not too crowded, patio seating, good food and very good margarita ! Stopped for lunch and the Pollo y camarone fajitas were excellent ! Stopped by again street tacos and Camerones la mojo de Ajo

I’ve visited multiple times and tasted a variety of meals — every single one was amazing! The customer service is exceptional as well.

The food was very good. The wait staff is not very attentive. They sat 3 adults and a 2 year old in a booth, and then brought out 8 plates to put on that small table. Didn't have any room to move, and not much space between the seats and the table to eat.
