El Comal Authentic Mexican Food — Restaurant in Bridgeton

Service was quick and friendly, staff speaks both English and Spanish, and area was clean and efficient. My friend and I got the chicken tacos and quesabirra tacos, and we were both satisfied with the taste, temperature, and portion size of the our plates. The table was served with complementary chips and salsa, and our drinks were fairly cheap (we got agua fresca). We took are time and stayed in there a while, and even when the establishment got busy, our waiter took the time to check on us multiple times. Afterwards while paying the bill, I decided to get another drink that they didn’t have already prepared, and right there on the spot the back kitchen took the time to make the drink for me. On our way out the waiter (manager I would assume also) thanked us for staying and went out of his way to make sure we were comfortable and to know he was appreciative of our service. Overall, the food is cheap in comparison to some Mexican food in the area, the staff was VERY polite and went out of their way to make sure you were satisfied, and the food and drinks were pretty good too! Would definitely call it authentic if that’s something you’re looking for. The birra was really good, and I would recommend it to anyone wanting to try El Comal. Overall, great dining experience for the...

The birria is OUTSTANDING and available daily--most places offer it one day a week IF you're lucky. The meat is nice and lean, too--not chewy or full of gristle.

If you're looking for some solid authentic Mexican food, look no further--but, if ambience is a deal breaker for you, better make that a...

Best Mexican restaurant in bridgeton! Food is amazing and fresh. Birria tacos are amazing and the broth they serve with it is so flavorful. The mango drink they sell is really good also.

Such a nice place with terrific food! Worth...
