El Local - Milwaukee

Came from Illinois to try a different Mexican restaurant. This place was good, the service was ok. I ordered bistec encebollado and my partner ordered soupa de res. The bistec dish I had was made with skirt steak, pretty spicy so beware those who don't like heat in there food. I didnt expect it to be that spicy they incorporate lots of jalapeños into this dish but I ate it anyways once mixed with the rice and beans it was tolerable but it did clear my sinuses lol. Thesoupa de res had good flavor, first time I ever seen it with a red soup its usually clear or a pail color but flavor was good, the meat was really tender. There jimaica drink was really good and flavorful. Overall, it was good.

After living in Los Angeles, it?s hard to find good authentic Mexican food anywhere. After moving to Milwaukee I?ve been trying a lot different places. I took one bite of the tacos here I knew this place was legit! My taste bites felt like they were at home in East L.A.

This Mexican joint off of I-43 is it! The interior is very cute and colorful and gives off a bright welcoming feeling, the place was very clean. The staff was great as well. Now for the food, excuse me as I reminisce for a second..... Yeah, it was that good. Now everyone knows at these Mexican spots you get the standard tortilla chips with sauce, and here was no different. I got a nice sized bowl of tortilla chips (not pictured, my sorry ???? with 3 different kinds ofsauce: 1. Salsa 2. Some kind of Verde sauce. 3. A spicy hot sauce. The chips were lightly seasoned so they were ight. Now to the main course. I got 3 ground beef tacos and a beef burrito with rice and beans, (cause I knew nothing but TacoBell My whole life . But this was AMAZING, so I order my food and it arrived quick, like Lighting McQueen *Cha-chow* quick. Everything was nice and hot, (I burned myself 3-4 times tops , and the ground beef was JUICY. Both the taco andburrito was filled to the brim with meat. the portions were very large for the price point and the presentation wasn't even that bad. Sadly I didn't get any dessert, I didn't see any on the menu plus I was so satisfied I didn't even careafterward. And get this, everything I got came to about $20, I paid around $19 and some change but that was cheap as hell for a filling meal. If you're in the mood for Mexican and you're around the area give this place a shot you will notregret it. Cheers.

Long time customer. Always satisfied with the food and the service. My super picky kids approve of the rice and beans, which says a lot.

Rice to go is over priced one gallon 30 bucks is too expensive everything else is reasonable
