There’s a Mexican rule that says you should never try Mexican food outside Mexico, but El Comal in North Park is the exception. The dishes here truly capture authentic Mexican flavor.
We ordered the pozole, and although the hominy could use a bit more of that chewy consistency you find back home, the taste was rich and traditional. The tampiqueña was delicious, perfectly seasoned, and satisfying. The nopal salad could use just a touch more Mexican spice, but overall everything was very good.
The service was outstanding, friendly, and attentive. And a special mention goes to the agua de horchata, an absolute delight.

My husband and I have been looking for delicious, authentic mexican restaurants and I’m glad we stumbled upon this place as we strolled through North Park. The food was delicious! Out of this world! The place was surrounded with beautiful colors with a beautiful Mexican aesthetic theme. The server was extremely friendly, welcoming and kept checking in to see if we needed anything else. I will definitely be coming back! 10/10.

Amazing Sunday brunch experience!
The flavor and the atmosphere brought me back to the years I lived in Mexico City. The Chilaquiles were spectacular. I did t eat the burrito, but was told that it was also amazing. Definitely hit this spot if you’re craving great Mexican food, not CalMex, but Mexican

We had a late afternoon lunch here – excellent food, friendly service, and a relaxing atmosphere. The covered patio area is especially nice on a warm day. Highly recommend the chicken mole and tacos.

I called in my order and picked it up. Service was great. Very attentive and friendly staff working here. The atmosphere is cute. Cozy inside, and has a lovely outdoor patio.
I got a carne asada burrito. The flavor of the beef was good, and it well prepared. My biggest hangup was that there were pieces of chewy gristle. 🙁 That is an automatic NO for me. I could not finish my burrito because of that, and I would never order carne asada or beef from here again. I had to take off two stars for this because meat quality is very important to me.
As many have mentioned, they serve arroz blanco (white rice) here instead of the traditional Mexican arroz rojo most are used to. I was really missing the flavors there.
I do wanna try the cochinita pibil plate at some point, so I will give them another chance.

Love this place! I went there for my birthday recently, and I was treated exceptionally special by the staff. The place itself is not very impressive, but it has an old authentic charm about it that makes you feel at home. The food is better than what you get in Old Town, and you can taste the care that goes into preparing the dishes. There is an external eating area if you want to be outside, but it is still very cozy.

Red Mole Enchiladas and Carne Asada Burrito were really good. The Cadillac Margarita was the best I’ve ever had. Our waiter was super nice. Like we heard another couple say, this place lived up to the hype!

we had an amazing time here! food was amazing and the server was so friendly. we got here around 11:15 and were the only ones here until noon. burritos are hugee so if two people want the same one i’d recommend sharing! portions in general are pretty huge, and everything was great!

Food was pretty good! Our party didn’t love the beans, but everything else was delicious. Our service was wonderful even though our server was very busy. The place itself was pretty crowded at dinner time so you definitely sit close to others.
