I went in to order take out only , But while waiting inside I noticed how nice and comfortable El Lago is and the Staff was very friendly and my order was ready in a reasonable amount of time. The food was delicious and plentiful. I had the Mini Chimichangas and a chorizo’s Torta Yummmm and next time that I’m in town I’m eating inside.

The staff ND service is great. The food quality is average at best. The place is a little run down but not terrible. We will return there to dine but not often.

first time trying this place and I will never return. I found a pincher bug in my meal and it clearly looks like it was cooked with my food. Disgusted. definitely don’t recommend, after taking the food back and showing them what I had found the lady (possibly owner) said “it’s common to find bugs in your food. it’s not a big deal” we asked for our money and she said “oh come on are you serious” she voided the transaction, but still had the audacity to want to charge me $5 for an horchata that wasn’t priced $5, but that was the minimum credit card limit, so she wanted to swipe my card for $5. Extremely unprofessional. They only care about their money.

Good food especially for the price. We were there after Navy PIR as we wanted to get further away from the graduation crowds. The food came out quickly and the ladies there were really nice.

Been here several times for lunch & dinner. Fresh tortilla chips served with cheese sauce & salsa for your pre order are really good. Tamales with rice and beans dinner is tasty & the mini chimi-chongas are delightful. I got a big container of Pazoli to go & they serve it with the chopped cabbage and radish for garnish. (Pazole & Manolo are only available on the weekends) lovin the Pazole

Disgusted and Nasty! Found bugs in the food! Place is dirty!!!! My friend and I ordered a chicken sandwich and the steak skillet. We picked up the food and started eating. As my friend took her second bite she spit her food out and pointed out an earwig bug in her food. We immediately both stopped eating and I took the food back. Once there I asked for a manager and it took a minute to get someone’s attention. When she finally came out she asked what the problem was, I showed her the bug and at first she just looked at me confused. Once I repeated I wanted a refund she said it was fine. She instructed the other ladies to void the original transaction and charge me the other food. When I mentioned again I didn’t want the other food she got mad and kept repeating “come on you already started eating the food.” She tried to argue with me that the other food was fine and that I should pay for it. I told her that I was uncomfortable to eat the food since we found a bug in the other plate, I wasn’t going to wait to find one on my plate as well. She finally said “Wow! Ok! Fine! You know I once found a bug in my food at Red Lobster!” Like okay? I feel like she wanted me to be ok with bugs in her restaurants food! Then as she did the void she told me she was going to charge the drink. I agreed since I had actually drank the whole thing. The drink was like $3 and some change. Since I paid card she said “the minimum is $5 to charge a card so I’m just going to charge you that!” Without asking me if it was ok or not she proceeded. I told her to not charge the card and I paid cash. She’s rude and to my opinion disgusting. Charging my card without my ok and thinking finding bugs in the food is “normal”!!! Place is dirty never going there again!
