This restaurant was recommended to us by Brenda at Elk’s Refuge and we are so glad we took her advice. If you are looking for authentic Mexican cuisine, then look no further than the El Metate for the place to dine. For us, this restaurant was a gastronomic delight. The food here was fantastic, generous portions, served hot and in a timely manner. The staff members were all wonderful and took care of us with a friendly smile. Just beware, parking can be a bit of a problem, especially during the peak season. We were there at the end of September and the streets were still packed.

Authentic Mexican that deserves the recommendation! I ordered the Pozole (special of the day) and it was probably the best I’ve had in years compared to countless other places. We also ordered the goritas and the sope. You will not leave hungry. Service was amazing, friendly and helpful. This place deserves a 5 star review.

Finally got to try cactus! We ordered the Azteca Huaraches. The salsa for the chips was delicious. The chips themselves weren’t the best I’ve ever had. They also brought us 2 other salsas for our entrees: a green one and a red one – the green was mild with a tiny hint of heat. The red was a solid med/hot heat. We enjoyed the Huarache. Their guacamole was tasty but different from other guacamole we’ve had elsewhere. Service was great. They were very attentive. When you’re ready to leave you go up to the counter to pay. This was definitely a very authentic meal. We are glad we ate here.

I’m from Mexico City, and I really recommend this shrimp broth; it’s good. The staff is very attentive, and they have Pacifico and Modelo draft beer.

I tried the tampanquilla plate and it did not disappoint. The verde chicken enchiladas were fresh and slightly spicy. Hearty. The beans, rice and cheese was very tasty and the asada steak had a lemony marinade. I’d recommend this plate.

We had the steak and cactus hurraches and a side of guac along with chips and salsa. The food was very good. We also enjoyed the decor and found the restaurant to be very authentic.

I was threatened with Police.
So the atmosphere was not bad the waitress was friendly. The food (Chicken Enchiladas) however was not good in my opinion. It was below average for Mexican food. I honestly only ate about 10% of the food as I was tasting, beans were very runny and flavorless, the green salsa was watery and flavorless, I bit into pieces of chicken bone, the chicken itself was very dry. I’ve had worse but at least I didn’t get threatened with getting the cops on me. I travel a lot for work and in many states if you don’t like the food and you’ve only taken a few bites the kitchen usually tries to correct it by offering something else or not charging for what Little you actually ate. I politely told the waitress that I didn’t like the food and then I only would pay for the drink since no where near enough was consumed (literally 10% or less).
The manager came over and vas very upset it was almost as if I personally offended her. She threatened to call the cops. I’m here for work and not for drama so I politely paid anyways.
I’ve never had such a terrible dining experience in my life. I cannot recommend this place. Everyone except for this lady seemed friendly and cheerful. Maybe she was just having a bad day, God bless her.

Very delicious and authentic food complete with some very spicy salsa. Both meals were prepared fresh, had a large portion, and were fairly priced. Definitely worth a look.

Great, authentic Mexican food in Jackson Hole! Everything we tried was delicious, and the menu had several unique dishes I’d never seen before. I’m already looking forward to coming back to try more. The service was friendly, the food came out quickly, and the prices were very reasonable. There is plenty of seating.
