They have horrible service they always get the orders wrong. I always go there but this time they done pissed me off. I ordered my food and drink they gave me a number and has me sitting for like 15 min without asking me anything it turns out they never even made my order and the guy was like “oh I thought you didn’t ordered anything” like why would I sit there for 15 min if I’m not ordering food like I was so pissed. Then they are so unsanitary the guy who did my food WASHED his hands with the gloves on he didn’t even switched gloves nothing then he goes on to clean his face TOUCHING his NASTY SWETY TOWEL for his face. DISGUSTING never coming back.

Young lady was very rude at the front counter. I used to come here all the time but this is why I got to 5th street. Best elugar in tyler . They greet you with a smile and treat you like family. This is why I go to 5th street. Please do better a good attitude free

El Lugar has been a favorite of mine for many years. When I was in college at TJC I frequented El Lugar probably a couple time a week. I moved almost 20 years ago and my career as take me from Tyler to many states. I was back in town recently and OMG what a treat. Not only was I greeted by the same faces from 20 years ago the food was simply amazing. I was so glad to see they are still serving the people of East Texas so many years later and the food was as delicious as I remembered!

So I’ve been to this place before and the food does taste good. The horrible thing about particular location is there customer service. They either never answer the phone or is always busy. This time, I was trying to place a large phone order but was put on hold for over 10 minutes, then they hangs up on me. I call back, she hangs up again when I say I’m trying to place a calling order. I call back AGAIN because I need to place a large order. It’s the same young lady that answers and I tell her what previously transpired. She then proceeded to tell me angrily that I’m not the only person who’s trying to place an order. I advise I understood that but with over 10 minutes and multiple calls, I should be able to place my order as well that would have been well over $100. I even apologize that she was having a frustrating time. Her answer to that was to try to put me on hold again.
The people at my office love these tacos and it’s so out of the way to go to the one off of 5th Street, but it doesn’t look like the one on Gentry Pkwy neither want or need the business. They really need better help and/or better training for to avoid missing out on potential revenue.

The meat was not packed with flavor but reasonably priced for the portions. Overall it tasted fine. I wouldn’t say it was a hit or a miss. I would come back for the taco’s not the burrito . The torta did look like it was worth trying. Will try that next time

The only suggestion is for someone to clean the tables. Everything else about El Lugar is fantastic, and it’s our favorite place in TX for authentic Mexican food.
