El Metate 3 Soddy Daisy

I really enjoy the quality of food there and the staff is excellent!

Good people and a lot of good food. We order to go because we have our dog with us.

Wow that was amazing food! Super authentic. Super tasty. We live 45 min away and it was sooo worth the drive. We will be back View menu

With as many times as I’ve been here, I have always had an identical experience. Fast service, friendly staff, and great Mexican food, and one of the only places that’s still affordable to eat out at. Highly recommend!!

We discovered this gem on the way back from the annual county fair. One of my personal top 10 best dine-in experiences of all time with the family, but noted it would be a good date night spot the next time wifey and I have a date night.

I stick with fajitas, sometimes tacos and enchiladas, or pollo con queso (their version of a pollo loco at other Mexican restaurants). The manager or owner (I’m assuming) is usually walking around and he always asks how everything is. We always leave happy!

It’s been a while but I saw a young mother in this restaurant with two young kids. They were being a bit rowdy as kids do but were within reason. I watched this mother tend to her children while trying to sneak a bite in between playing with them. In the end she had one fall asleep on her lap with the other one leaned onto her other shoulder and somehow still ably feeding her child and herself. She just really looked like a kind, patient mother. I told my waiter I would pick up her tab and to please not say anything to her. Well, it must have literally gotten lost in translation because before I knew it I had a teary-eyed mother standing in front of me thanking me for what I’d done. I told h... View menu
