“ I always get the mini taco to go. Great customer service on the phone and in person. I have no hassle or made to feel like I am asking too much for them to put all of the garnishing on the side; they did it beautifully. Both locations, Gillis Hill RD and this location are a great place to go. ”
“ Some of the Best Mexican Food ever! Well worth the money, and Always guaranteed to have extras to take home for later. If You're looking for Authentic Mexican Flavor and Service, this is The Place!! ”
“ The Asada Tacos were the bomb! Homemade corn tortillas and a very generous portion of carne asada in each taco, along with rice and beans, is sure to fill you up good. This particular location was recommended to me by a nice lady I met while making a quick stop after arriving from out of town. My server was Patty who made me feel like I was being treated to a homemade meal prepared and served by her own hands, in her own home. I will go and see Patty again, and have the Asada Tacos again before I leave town. ”

“ I find the food here to be excellent. The Pedro's shredded beef quesadilla is the best anywhere. I have a long history with Pedro's quesadillas and look forward to many more years enjoying them with El Cazador. Edit:. My wife found a new favorite this weekend. Fajita Veggie Nachos. Second edit to add picture of steak fajita quesadilla. I had jalapenos added. Yum. ”
“ Excellent Mexican Restaurant. Eric, our server is awesome. He remembered who we were and what we ordered when we returned for the second time two weeks later. The dress code is very casual. The guacamole is awesome and fresh. ”
