This place is always incredible! Yummy food and drinks. We split the whole fish and it came with delicious toppings to make fish tacos. So so good! The drinks are amazing!! Love the pineapple margarita they made me. Pricey but worth it!

Food was absolutely delicious. Service was spot on and very helpful. I got the muscles as a meal, it was spicy, but a good spicy. We will definitely be back.

My boyfriend and I stopped in for dinner on Sunday night. We unexpectedly found one of our new favorite spots.

We got the chips and salsa to start and were pleasantly surprised by the depths of flavors. Sweet, spicy, bright and herbal.
We also shared the caeser salad and the augachile. Both incredible. We each got our own tacos and margaritas. I had a guava house margarita and they were dangerously delicious.

Overall this was a wonderful dining experience. Atmosphere was comfortable and stylish. Service was attentive- every empty plate was immediately replaced with the next course. We skipped on dessert, though I wish we at least took it to go.
We will definitely be returning!

Freaking spicy! No mention of spice levels on the menu. I had the huarache. One bite and I was breathing fire looking for refuge. Couldn’t eat another bite. The plantains were good, not spicy.

Came in on a Wednesday evening and there were quite a few open tables. when they understood It was just a party of one they recommend sitting at the bar. I opted not to and asked for a table. The hostess fumbled for a minute, and again asked me to sit in the bar area at one of the long shared Islands. Asked if I could have a table and told me that the whole restaurant was reserved for the night. I agreed to sit in the bar area, and for the hour and 10 minutes that I was there, I saw multiple tables empty, never occupied with their so-called reservations. I just don’t think they wanted to sit a party of one at a table for whatever reason. The music is excessively loud and the service is extremely slow.
Chips and salsa were by far the best thing to eat. The Ceviche is overly fishy and lacked any other type of flavor. 3 tacos, soft shell crap (bad), carne asada (ok), chicken (good). I wouldn’t recommend this establishment, but enjoy at your own risk.

Who would have thought bomb Mexican in Montana!!??
I am a Flight Attendant, I travel the whole country and I like to find little spots like this one to try the food. I have to be 100% honest. I was totally blown away by this hidden gem. I have been in Michelin Mexican restaurants and this place is absolutely amazing! I was very impressed by the menu, which have some options that not many modern Mexican restaurants will offer e.i. Tacos de papa con rajas.
I started with cangrejo tostada: wow! So refreshing, the different flavors in your mouth, I’d absolutely order it again and again!
Then I ordered: 3 different tacos: Papas con rajas, cochinita pibil, tacos al pastor. TBH I was blown away by these 3 tacos. My absolute favorite were papas con rajas and the taco star of the night: Cochinita pibil!
They have their house hot sauces: the red one is a strawberry habanero and the green one is green apple habanero. Best hot sauces I’ve ever tried!
I had to try the 3 leches (great dessert!) you are not going to retreat coming to the Camino.
I had 2 beers (which were $3 each!! – happy hour all day every day)
El Camino is absolutely worth it! I texted all my loved ones and I’m coming back to Missoula (I live in VA) just to have dinner with them at The Camino.
Suggestion: Please start selling the hot sauces

I love eating at The Camino! The servers are friendly and helpful.
The chips and dip are always spot-on, and the tacos never miss – especially the mahi and pork belly.
Plus, the “2 for Flinching” cocktail is absolutely epic.

Excellent service, excellent food and one of the only places open past 9 pm. Great ambiance, modern but inviting.

Our server was exceptional and there’s food was delicious. The mezcal selection is impressive and they had outside seating.

I highly recommend giving this place a try. Oooh, very vegan friendly too.

The drinks were great, bartender was pretty good. The chips and salsa were fantastic, but you have to pay for them. The main course left a lot to be desired the chicken tacos were essentially a bland fancy chicken nugget in a taco. I understand this is a fusion mexican restaurant and it’s left to interpretation but this was lacking.
The atmosphere was very trendy and loud more of a college scene. Would recommend for a first date with drinks, chips and salsa then pop over to stave and hoop if it went well.

I recently dined at the Camino a Mexican restaurant and had a pretty great experience! The ambiance was trendy and inviting, with cool artwork and a relaxed vibe. The menu offered unique twists on classic Mexican dishes, and the flavors were exceptional. The staff was knowledgeable and friendly, recommending the best dishes and adjusting it to our needs. Not true Mexican, but good with a hipster spin. Overall, a must-visit spot for those seeking a hip and delicious Mexican dining experience! Three tacos hits the spot.
