Why have I been sleeping on coming here? I’m devastated that I’ve lived in Rapid City for 3 years and this is my first time trying this place. First off, I’m so happy to have found a Mexican restaurant that serves table salsa that has an actual kick and awesome flavor. Secondly, the Carne Asada in the street tacos is phenomenal. Thirdly, I’ve never had rice and beans THIS GOOD! (And I grew up in Tucson, Az) My only disappointment is that they were out of Aguas Frescas when I came, but that’s life, and Jarritos is a good second choice. I will DEFINITELY be coming back here often, as this is going to be my new favorite place to get tacos.

We’ve only dined here once for dinner but it was great. Homemade salsa, delicious guacamole and large portions. We had the shrimp fajitas and the chicken enchiladas and a tostada. The meal was not only full of flavor, the plating looked good (odd to say I know). The restaurant staff were friendly and the service quick. Highly recommend for a great meal.

If you’re craving Mexican food, I highly recommend El Sombrero! I went there twice during my trip to Rapid City, and both times it did not disappoint. The first time, I ordered the Tres Hermanos — shrimp, chicken, and beef — and the second time, I tried the Camarones a la Fiesta. Both dishes came with rice, beans, lettuce, and guacamole. Everything was so good, and the guacamole was absolutely delicious! The portions are generous, and you’ll definitely leave full. 100/10!

Literally horrified at how they even call this a Mexican restaurant. They tell me they’re out of queso, and that there won’t be any made in time before I leave. Then I’m reading other reviews and seeing that this is common. Sounds like laziness in the kitchen. There is no way. So I ask for tacos, not realizing what they’re about to do. I asked for two beef two chicken, and they refused to give me my beef ones and then I’m absolutely baffled and shocked to see they put SHREDDED cheese on my tacos that weren’t even correct. I have never been to a Mexican restaurant that does this. Oh you think that’s it? Mid-chew of my third taco, there were hairs in it and I had to spit it out and couldn’t even eat my last one because that made me lose my appetite. Never. Again.

Wow! The food here was very good! No wait when we went; got seated right away. We got margaritas which were also good. Service was quick and attentive. I got the carne asada and the steak was flavorful and juicy. The rice was also very good, I normally don’t finish the rice but it was so yummy I finished my whole plate. They do charge 3.95% fee for using credit card.

My husband and I had some bad luck with restaurants this trip. Thankfully we found a good one here. I ordered the meal that comes with an enchilada, a burrito, rice and beans. The portions are large here. I was only able to eat half. My margarita was good too. Our server was quick and brought everything out to us exactly as ordered. They hit the mark on the first try with no issues. I recommend this restaurant.

My mom and I visited here for the first time. I decided to get the loco burrito and my mom had the chili relleno. The potion sizes were good, but the flavor for being Mexican food was very bland. Our waiter was polite, however, the beer the was ordered was out dated, he said the shelf life was 6-8 months. I think when you order from a restaurant, the beer should not by outdated. Otherwise, the overall experience was okay.

Best Mexican by far.
Food was tasty, portions were generous.
Pico/ salsa with chips so delicious.
Fajita burrito was outstanding.
Normally, I’m skeptical when it comes to ordering fried ice cream. Wow was it awesome.
Place is very clean.
Staff was kind.

Solid experience, good food, decent price and good service. Small-ish place in a mini-mall, but nice decor. I had a good lunch. Thank you.
