Beautiful place for some Mexican food. The waitress Jessica was terrific with explaining the menu and making sure I had everything I needed. The “sopa de mariscos” was so delicious I took my time so I could enjoy every flavor it had to offer.

Really loud. But not their fault. Food was ok. Drinks were typical ready made mixes. Only fresh thing is the Horchata water. That stuff is amazing.

I have been to other El Nopal locations and I did not realize how much better the food can be until I had some here. The food was very well made and was quite a bit better than other locations I have been to. I overheard that they may be closing sometime in a few months when their lease ends and I would really like to go back a few times before that happens.
