I normally am not a fan of Mexican food, but this was my exception! Everything about this place was fantastic. I would like the salsa a little more spicy and possibly a bit chunkier, but that really is just personal preference and a bit of nit picking.

I’ve gone here since 2007. It’s not at all what it used to be. There is no way Jaime is looking at this food and approving it. It’s reheated bullshi* the first pictures are the uncooked food I was served. The last one was after I cooked it myself. Absolutely atrocious for the price.

This is a nice little hole in the wall restaurant. The food is always good, especially their fajitas. The price is what wins this place over though, it’s good food for a good price. My wife loves the Margaritas here.

Wesley Juron
I’ve been going here a couple of years, and it is my go-to place for some good Mexican food. The staff is always friendly and attentive. The prices are very good and it is easy to eat there for 8-12 dollars. It is clean and well maintained.

This is our favorite restaurant in Madison County and we’ve been going there for more than ten years! The food is excellent for very reasonable price. It’s authentic Mexican, not “Americanized” or Tex-Mex. The drinks are great too. The staff is wonderful, warm, friendly, very willing to explain items, fast, and willing to teach us the occasional phrase. Most have been there many years so it appears to be a good, happy place to work. The atmosphere is old-style Mexican restaurant with painted furniture and art on the walls but not tacky OR overcome with glitz. We recommend El Olmeca to anyone who wants good food in a nice atmosphere.

I’ve been here plenty of times. Love the chips and salsa and bean dip! My fiancé raves about their burrito macho and is the only thing he ever orders there

Marie Parker
The food was not only good but it came out quick and all our plates were full, no one was able to finish their meal so we all had to ask for a togo box.. Plus the hospitalty was on point! I will keep going back

Andrew Cogan
An awesome find. My wife and I both had variants of the fajitas, from the wide and varied menu (I don’t want to say overwhelming range because that might be construed as negative and there is nothing negative to say about this restaurant).
