El Mezcal

Joy riding on the interstate near Steven's Point, WI, when I started to get hungry and saw the beautiful lights on the exterior of this Mexican restaurant (Oopsy-daisy, I forgot to take a photo of the restaurant exterior). I asked the server his favorite dish (as per my norm) and he picked the El Zarape. It was so good and the portion was enough for 2 people. I decided to order some Horchata and it was frothy! Are there Horchata cows in Wisconsin?!? (Just kidding). Seriously though, it was fresh, smooth, and delicious! I thought that this was going to be just another Mexican food place but then I took my first bite and loved the entire experience! I ordered the flan to go and I'm eagerly anticipating my treat later tonight...

There are several Mexican restaurants in the area, and we decided to go to this one due to a picky child and the fact that they had mini corn dogs on the menu. Big mistake. Definitely not authentic Mexican food. The flavor of the enchiladas was not pleasant, took two bites, and didn't finish the rest. Ate one of the tacos and left the other. The meat was flavorless. The chimichanga was average. The corn dogs were enjoyed. However, before ordering, child asked how many there were and was told 10. When they came out, there was 6. Child pointed this out to the server, who said "oh I just guessed." The other kid ordered the cheeseburger, she didn't like it, so her sister took it. She also did not like it. The ambiance was nice and decor festive.

No bueno, margaritas were bogo, another person dining with us got beef enchiladas with raw ground beef. Shrimp cocktail had zero flavor, chips and salsa was not good.

Food was tasty. Service was great. Ambiance isn't great but is fine. Had house margaritas, Sol beers and fajitas.

Wholly enjoyable. While certainly not authentic Mexican it's delicious in it's own way anyway whether you call it Tex-Mex, Mexican-American or just plain delicious.

Salsa's really good and is especially better when you ask for the picante salsas. Mnm

I like to think you can judge a place by their tamale and this tamale was absolutely excellent. Fat and tender deliciousness, with a nice runny salsas. Yumn!!

Went with the veggie fajitas and was so thankful the veggies weren't soaked in grease and were plentiful and of good variety instead of just onions and peppers. Nice touch with the slice of lemon too!

Happy friendly service with but a slight language barrier ...but that's part of the fun, isn't it?

Immersive, very good casual Mexi-American dining.

Terrific food, great patio. I enjoyed the beans and rice a ton. Is recommend if you're in the mood for some classic Mexican food! :)

I love El Mezcal. I would die for El Mezcal. If you never have ate here you have to go because it is very yummy. I love the taco!!! YOU NEED TO GO HERE BECAUSE ITS LIFE CHANGING!!!!!!!!!!!!!

excellent food and atmosphere. enjoyed our night out with the group!

good service, courteous and great food!

I really enjoyed the shrimp tacos! I had the flour tortillas. The guacamole in the tacos was so great! I will definitely get an order of it the next time we go!

Best to dine-in! We have eaten here both in the restaurant and carry out and let me just say, carry out isn't as good. By the time you get your food home it is soggy and cold. But otherwise our experiences in the restaurant have been great. The food is good, portions are huge, and service is good.
