Was skeptical about eating here after reading the reviews, but we were in town and this was the only restaurant that was open and suited our dietary needs. We both got the BYOB with marinated Chicken. Got Guac which was $2.50 extra and it was just a tiny bit that was served! Not at all worth it. The bowl is a bit smaller than Chipotle and not that filling as well.

Since the owner had commented on a previous review that they offer vegetarian options and also have grilled potatoes, I asked the girl who was serving, if we could have potatoes. She said that it only comes inside the burrito, but they offer mashed potatoes. After asking her multiple times if it has dairy and confirming that it doesn’t , we ordered it. When we got it we tasted cheese and she again went into the kitchen to confirm it. She said although she asked the kitchen multiple times, they said there was no dairy, but they had just checked the packet again and it did contain dairy !

The bowls we had were not that filling, so we also ordered a Chicken fajita to share and that was really good, although it did have a bit too much oil.

The interior is decorated beautifully and it has a lot of seating. The girl who served us was very helpful.

Eaten at El Gordo Burro multiple times from afternoon to evening. The most recent was for diner and we drove over 40 minutes since the choices elsewhere were either oddly unsatisfying or the reviews of the other places were concerning.

The atmosphere is cute and family style. Staying away from the entry door to reduce cold in winter and heat in summer may be a desired move. The recent addition of cute little “burro” stuffed animals is a good touch. It is good the main dining room is delightful since heading to the “bar” or bathroom is in the adjoining space.

The food is delightful and presents well. I do crave a bit more taste but don’t want a good thing in the 40+ mile area to go down hill.

I haven’t ordered any drinks beyond tea. They had Mexican coke on the specials blackboard last time and some potentially interesting margaritas.

In summary, it is a good bet we will return even after trying other odd Mexican restaurants.

We’ve been meaning to get here when we visit and finally made it today! We will absolutely be coming back. The parking isn’t great, but not horrible.
Walking in, the atmosphere is awesome! Little donkeys all over, really great paintings. Plants with chili pepper lights hanging from the ceiling.
The staff was all friendly and quick to help with recommendations on food.
The food!! It was so good!! My daughter wanted a quesadilla, but with shredded pork. Not a problem at all! She even told us after we left, that was the best quesadilla she’s ever had.
The chimichurri steak tacos were phenomenal. My wife got a huge platter of something that looked and tasted excellent.
The margarita flights were delicious, we tried 8 different flavors and while I thought they were a little sweet, they were still very good.
Hopefully they start selling shirts and hoodies too, because I loved them! We got a $5 stuffed donkey for our daughter.
This will definitely be on the return trip list when we’re back in town!!

Great food, though a lot of items are a little pricey. I get it, though. The service was a little slow, despite there not being too many other customers. They forgot one of my friend’s meals in the window and had to take it to go because my friend didn’t want to cause an issue, and we had another engagement to get to.

All in all, i suggest visiting this place if you are in the area. Be warned though, because public parking in this area of town can often be an issue since it is rather limited. (We need a parking garage)

We visited this new restaurant on the recommendation of our son and his girlfriend who absolutely love Mexican food. The restaurant is clean, bright, and spacious. Our server was very friendly and provided us chips and delicious salsa while we ordered our drinks. The menu has a great selection of dishes, and among the six of us, we tried several! My tacos were delicious! The cilantro shrimp with slaw and avocado were perfect. This restaurant is a great addition to downtown Dubois. We can’t wait to go again!

This is an amazing place to sit down and eat and I was surprised after my food came that it wasn’t a packed house! I ordered the signature burrito (El Gordo Burro) and it did not disappoint! Also ordered the churro bites with cream cheese and raspberry dipping sauces and the chef said that they’re addictive and he wasn’t kidding! Even got an order to go they were so good. Definitely going back! Everyone was so friendly and the food was even better. They have multiple TVs as well if you enjoy watching something while you eat as well. Seriously, don’t cheat yourself by eating mediocre Mexican food, go here and have the best!

Also, I’ve read other reviews saying it’s bland (not true) and the portion sizes are small for the price and comparing it to Chipotle, don’t compare something made fresh to generic fast food. I’m very picky about my flavors and the guac was amazing!!!!

Really neat little restaurant with fantastic food and friendly service. Salsa was awesome, and I loved their enchiladas. Will absolutely come back, and beats driving an hour to Altoona.

Great staff, good atmosphere and the chicken quesadilla and the azzon chicken and rice dish was fantastic. Highly recommend. Last but not lease the watermelon margarita is out of this world. Highly recommended

Stopped in after working a late shift to get myself something to eat before picking my daughter up. I ordered a chicken burrito bowl with cheese lettuce salsa and sour cream. All I got was chicken and lettuce. No cheese salsa or sour cream. The lady who took my order was one the phone the entire time with what seemed like a personal phone call. Bowl is also small for what I paid $13.00. Honestly it wasn’t that great – I ate a few bits and tossed the rest. I don’t think I would try again
