Reviews
We’ve visited this El Asadero location several times now because it’s very convenient to our home, and it’s become a solid go-to when we’re craving Mexican food. The restaurant has a contemporary vibe with a large menu that includes some fun fusion-style items, although this visit we both stuck with more traditional dishes.
You start with chips and salsa, and their salsa is excellent—fresh, flavorful, and a great kickoff to the meal. I ordered a combo enchilada plate, and my husband had the pork burrito verde. Both dishes were very good, with the kitchen giving traditional items a slightly more modern slant that works well. We also shared a cheese chile relleno, which was fantastic.
Since it was Monday, they were running their medium margarita special for $6.99. Great value, and they add a little flair by bringing it out with a mini indoor sparkler (for lack of a better description). It’s a fun touch without being over the top.
Portions here run a bit on the smaller side compared to many Mexican restaurants, but with the chips and salsa, you still walk away satisfied. Service is consistently excellent—friendly, quick, and attentive. The restaurant is clean and well maintained.
If I have one minor critique, it’s that the ventilation feels a little underpowered. When all the windows are closed, you can really smell the grill when you walk in. It hasn’t lingered on our clothes, but it does give the dining room a slightly smoky feel. The lighting is also a bit bright for my personal taste, but that’s preference more than a problem.
Overall, El Asadero delivers solid food, good value, and a great experience. We come here regularly and will definitely keep coming back whenever the Mexican craving hits.
I hopped onto Uber eats and saw they had a BoGo on Quesa Birria. I usually just get fast food when I go out as prices have gone up everywhere. But it seemed like a great deal.
Just ordered the quesas and nothing else. The delivery driver dropped off a HUGE bag. It had my order as well as the dipping sauces for the quesas, the beans and rice for both orders AND they gave me chips and salsa and creamy verde.
Hands down the best Mexican food I’ve had in YEARS! The barbacoa melts in your mouth and tastes like it’s been slow roasting all day. The presentation was fantastic, even for the styrofoam to-go boxes. Even the salsa was piquing my interest as I was eating it. The quality was amazing. I would not be surprised if they are processing their own tomatoes and peppers in house. The flavor was pristine.
All in all I would highly recommend. I would have been happy with just my order, but this really hit the spot! I hope to visit the restaurant in person when it warms up.
The big negative for us was the service. We hardly ever saw our server. Our fajitas were delivered with no tortilla shells. We asked the man who brought them for some, but there was an obvious language barrier. It was quite some time before the server ever came back to the table and by the time we actually got the tortilla shells, the fajitas were cold.
Service was good, not friendly
Host wasn’t friendly either
My taco salad was swimming in hamburger grease.
Granddaughter loved her cheese steak burrito and rice
We didn’t care for the corn chips
Salsa was great
The presentation was amazing
