El Metate - Reservar una mesa

Wanted to find some quick (non fast food) Mexican food to grab for the usual weekly lunch with the gf. Food was fresh tasty here so happy I ended chose this place. ITEM 'S ORDERED: Burrito Vegeteriano Chili Relleno Cheese Enchilada (w/ rice beans) TASTE: Burrito Vegeteriano is the usual bean cheese burrito but with added lettuce tomato. I enjoyed this very much, it was fresh, nice size, well flavored (not too salty) worked well with the red sauce. They gave an option of wet or dry burrito, I chose dry. These are a little more 'runny ' of a bean than whole so the burrito didn 't hold together as much as other ones I 've had. Chili Relleno Cheese Enchilada (w/ rice beans) was a well made combo...

Mexican Approved! Great food at a Great price! Great service! Can't get better than that! We paid 5.50 for a generously stacked tostada de Ceviche de pescado, 5.50 for a tostada de ceviche de camaron, and Only FIVE DOLLARS for a deliciously prepared Michelada! For being a hot summer day, this refreshing meal was an Oasis!! It was very forgiving on my wallet and my stomach. This was my second time here in June! ALSO only $24 for a Molcajete dish which is a great price compared to other local restraunts: (i.e:Cabreras $28 Molcajete) this Molcajete included: nopales, chorizo, asada, chicken, cheese, shrimp, rice and Beans!!!! What!?!!

Very good food, off the radar a little. Really glad I saw the good reviews or I may not have found this place. It's just a 50 yards off of Colorado Blvd, but you would never notice it as you drive by. I had a taco de pescado, and a tostada de cameron. It was under $10 with tax and tip. Taco was excellent. Grilled, not fried. Tostada was good. Tasty shrimp but not as much as I would have liked. Tortillas were excellent. Salsa was great, and chips were good. Service was okay. I'll be back again, but there are a few other Mexican restaurants I like better.

This is a wonderful family run and truly authentic Mexican restaurant where I eat at least a couple times a month. In my opinion, it's easily the best one locally, and certainly the best for the price and style: the kind of hidden but amazing place Anthony Bourdain, in his day, could've and should've brought to light. Don't miss out on it and for all you who are already in the know, show your support for this hard working mom, pop, and sons.

The burritos are good and the price is reasonable. You can easily park on the street. I would recommend El Metate Burrito if u like cheese.
