El Bronco can’t be Beat!
Our family ate here for lunch on Sunday. We arrived about five minutes before they opened at noon. There was already a significant line of patrons waiting outside the door. Once the door opened, the line moved quickly and we were seated by friendly staff. Their menu is extensive, with a good variety of dishes to choose. I had the Camarones Loco - shrimp and scallops with peppers, squash and zucchini, all over a bed of rice and topped with cheese sauce. The dish was excellent! The prices are very reasonable, with our four entrees costing $66, tip included. Definitely worth another visit.

My husband and I stopped here because it was right off 81 and we were looking for a fast-food alternative. The waiter was friendly and we were very pleased with the steak fajitas for two. The restaurant is comfortable, clean, and has a pleasant ambiance with Mexican music playing.

We have being going to El Bronco for several years. It is the best Mexican restaurant in the area of the five we have visited. The food is great, the service is exceptional, not long wait times -- even when they are busy. The staff is exceptionally pleasant and helpful. I have carb restrictions and they can accommodate that. I love the fact that the restaurant is a family business.

Stopped in for lunch. The place seems to always be busy! The reason is the place is clean, servers are friendly and the food is always great!

Decent Mexican food for a decent price! My taco salad was medium sized but filling. Husband”s chicken fajita was large and good!

We ordered two combo meals to take home. Once home we were missing items in both orders. Had to call and make a second trip back to restaurant to pickup the remainder of the order. Of course once we got back home the initial order was not hot. Very disappointing. For the high price for the food they need to do better getting the order right. Check your order before heading home.

I would give 10 stars, BUT everytime we order, they forget our wraps, white sauce, and everything else we order. The food is good, I guess, I've heard they're good, hard to say when you don't get what you order.

This is a good Mexican place in an area not known for good Mexican. The menu is varied and they can pack a lot of people into this small restaurant and tiny bar. Sometimes a short wait but it turns over fast.

Everything about our lunch experience here was good - the food, atmosphere, service, etc.. All 3 in our party had variations of lunch fajitas (Texas, chicken and steak). The person who had the steak commented how much larger the pieces of meat were compared to the Mexican restaurant he normally eats at. For my Texas fajita, the steak, chicken AND shrimp were all cooked just right (which can be a challenge for shrimp) and all the side dishes had very good flavor. The lunch size plates had more than ample portions.
If back in the area and craving Mexican food, this will be the place I'll come back to!

1pm Sunday, the place was packed. We waited with several other groups in the entryway for a full five minutes. No one greeted us, though every waiter in the place passed in front of us at least three times (they were busy, I get it, but an acknowledgment is always nice). Once we got seated, food service was fast. The waiter recommended the Burrito Texano, which I ordered; my wife got the beef chimi, again, waiter’s rec; both were unremarkable, but good enough to take leftovers home (the portions are large). Plenty of good chips and salsa.
