"FIRST OFF HAZARDOUS TO THOSE WITH ALLERGIES. I have waited days to write this review. I wanted to be in a level headspace, before I talked about my experience. I went to dinner here for my friends birthday last Friday. We all ordered dishes that had no fish. I ordered the chicken fajitas and split that with my friend. I grabbed the first taco and was halfway through it when my friend unearthed a shrimp on my plate. At that moment I stopped eating my taco because I am mildly allergic to shellfish. I told my waiter the problem and he took away my plate and asked if I would like anything else. I did not feel comfortable eating anything else, knowing that this cross contamination had occurred. I sat and ate my side of rice to hopefully dilute the shrimp effects. Minutes later I had gone pale and could no longer feel my lips, while having a cough. At this point we asked to receive the check immediately, that took 10 minutes. I would have left by myself if we had multiple cars, but I was the only person with a vehicle. After receiving our checks, he removed my fajitas but still charged me for my rice side. I truly would have not minded if anyone had apologized for the inconvenience and horrible cross contamination of a common allergen. The manager came across my table by happenstance and it was clear he was uniformed about my condition and the cause. We left before he could come back and help further with the issue because I was in need of benadryl. Mostly I am upset with the unapologetic attitude of the workers and the irresponsible manner in which they handle food that could be hazardous and even deadly."

"Great and Inexpensive. I may sound crazy, because some people say they don 't like this place very much, but to me, it 's some of the best cheap food I 've ever had.<br/ <br/ $3.99 Special!!! Let me say it again… $3.99 Special!!!<br/ <br/ It 's hard to get out of a fast food restaurant for that price and this stuff is made by hand with loving care by some of the best guys and gals from South of the border. Fresh salsa, great chips, flavorful ingredients and they 're service is lightning fast too. More times than not, the salsa is pretty spicy... that 's a good thing in my book. El Rodeo has got handling a busy lunch down to a science. The place starts getting packed shortly after 11 a.m. and it 's still full at 1 a.m. Even during the busiest rush, the service doesn 't suffer.<br/ <br/ Today was no different. I got there at 12:30 p.m. and the place was packed, but I still got seated right away at a nice little table close to the big screen TV. Watching TV isn 't why I came here, but catching ESPN in the early afternoon never hurt anyone.<br/ <br/ The look of the place has really changed in the last couple of years. They have all new murals painted on the walls of tough looking Mexican bull riders and their hot little Latin maidens. The place is just downright cool. And the outdoor seating… I didn 't even tell you about that. It 's huge, with wrought iron tables and colorful umbrellas. There 's so much foliage around that it feels like a tropical oasis.<br/ <br/ Enough of the environment… Let 's get to the food. I usually come on Wednesday 's or Thursday 's. This being a Wednesday, #5 was the lunch special. $3.99! I always go for the chicken, so the lunch came with a chicken taco, a chicken burrito, and a side of Spanish rice. The plates are always filled up and covered in creamy Mexican cheese. Awesome!<br/ <br/ Each table has a selection of hot sauces based on taste and they help accentuate the great flavors in the food. If you couldn 't tell by now, I 'm in love with this place and you might be too, if you give it a shot. I try to come here every week or so. I wouldn 't want to eat here more frequently than that, or I might get a little pudgy around the middle. (That 's a joke for those of you who know me; I 'm 'portly wide. ' <br/ <br/ Atmosphere: Nice, clean and relaxing even during the lunch rush.<br/ Service: Extraordinary... really. They need to sell their system of service to other restaurants. The servers are always friendly and they get your food out in a flash. That 's a huge plus if you 're trying to grab a fast lunch.<br/ Overall: Good, inexpensive food that tastes great and will fill you up.<br/ Special Note: I 've been eating here since before my kids were born. I love it and I 'm looking forward to many more years of belly filling experiences here. Enjoy!"

"Reading some of the previous reviews, my expectations were low, but I was very pleasantly surprised. The service was great. They filled up our chips and salsa almost immediately upon running low. They came by several times and asked if we neededanything, but not so much that it was annoying. The place was about half full, so not sure if that was a factor. Anyway, nothingto complain about there. The queso was great. I didn't have a can of Rotel dumped into it, but I actually prefer it that way.Rotel has a kind of metallic taste. If you want a Rotel like queso, just mix some salsa in and it's even better than Rotel. Thesalsa is top notch AND it comes warm which I love. The beans and rice were good. They seemed a little less salty than I'm usedto, but I prefer that as well. There's too much salt in everything already. If you want you can always add more. I tried thechicken quesadilla and while I thought the queso was little bland, my kid loved it. I got the pambazo which is a basically atorta with potatos and a teeny bit of chorizo, where the bread is slathered in something called red guajillo pepper sauce. Notmany places serve it, but it is really good. The one here was made in a way I'm not accustomed to. The ones I've had had theguajillo pepper sauce baked into the bread. Here, it was slathered on after the fact, making the bread wet. It still tasteddelicious, but you have to eat it with a fork and knife unless you're willing to make a huge mess, and there's no saving it forlater unless you're a fan of soggy bread. Maybe it's a regional variation? Not a big fan of doing this way, but like I said, itwas still good. Prices were not great, but not horrible either. All in all, really good. If this place was closer to my homeI'd come here often. For now this will be my pambazo place."
