This place is clearly catering to white boomers. It's also very pricey for the quality of food. I ordered chile rellenos (cheese-stuffed poblano peppers), and they ended up being two mounds of ground beef with melted cheese on top. There were 4 tiny chunks of poblano peppers in the mounds of meat. I spent $15 on that meal, of which I only ate the rice and beans bc I'm vegetarian. Don't waste your time here, when there are dozens of better and more affordable Mexican restaurants on Williamson.

In the event you are having a terrible day and just want to make it a bit more terrible, for terrible sake, jump on Uber Eats and order the worlds worst burrito in the world from this place. I can't even begin to fully explain what was delivered in the name of a burrito but it was some odd mix of old chicken, 3 beans, wrapped in a tortilla and covered with either a sheen of melted velveeta cheese or perhaps wall paste. It's impossible to eat this monstrosity but if you are into recycling, it could be re-utilized as part of a speed bump on the nearby road. Steer clear of this restaurant.

I was in the mood for some Mexican Food, and I talk to someone online about a good place to go they recommended el rodeo, they did not leave me a stray. I got a margarita and some chip sit down order their burritos rancheros, one with steak one with chicken. I will say the food was awesome the service was great the girl that was working the door and waiting tables I think had too much on her she was not very attentive but she took my order pretty fast it was brought by somebody else and I really never saw her again until it's time for me to get the check. But I will say it was some of the best Mexican food I have had in quite some time if I lived here I would be a regular

I can see why this El Rodeo has a poor Health Score of 62! It's a pain picking up my to go orders here, it's usually 10 minutes AFTER they say it will be ready. Plus they have a bunch of really young, clueless kids running the show there.

I had the Nachos Del Mar and I must say, it was delicious. If you don't mind seafood and cheese, you have to try it! It's the bomb! Seasoned to perfection. They know what they're doing, that's for sure

One star is really harsh for me. I highly do not recommend this restaurant as I've given them many chances because they're so close to my house. I am a loyal customer and I tip well over 20% every time, as I am a server at another restaurant. No matter what, I tip very well because I understand not everything is my servers fault. I've had one specific server many times coming here, and every single time, she over charges me or charges me extra for something that another server does not charge extra for but I don't complain. Most recently I came in and had a menu item listed at $9.99. Listed on menu and everywhere online at $9.99. I was charged $11.99. The cashier said the prices changed and she couldn't change my ticket price. The manager then said there was nothing he could do either as the owners had not given them new menus yet or changed anything online, when prices changed over a month ago. Like I said I come at least every two weeks. I told them I knew they don't personally care but that I will not be back as a customer. It's very disappointing and frustrating. The restaurant I work at treats customers with more value, and I love where I work because we take care of much larger customer issues without a second thought. This location has proven terrible customer service to a very loyal and well-tipping, respectful customer. I have to let people know. Thanks for nothing, El Rodeo Williamson. Owners should consider their loyal, well-tipping and respectful customers.

Delicious!! We had a large group but we're sat immediately and they worked with dietary needs. Great customer service, great food.
