El Metate Mexican Grill — Restaurant in Clanton

You will NOT regret it! I know there are about 5-6 places for Mexican food here in Clanton now, BUT this place is amazing! I have not had a single item yet that I did not like! The dishes burst with flavor. You can tell that each item is cooked to order and is served hot and in timely fashion. There has never been a wait to sit here as I believe that people have not given it a try yet being that there was a place that opened up shortly before they did.

I had a wonderful experience at this restaurant! The staff were incredibly kind and welcoming from the moment I walked in. Their warmth really made the meal even more enjoyable. The menu had a great variety of authentic options and it was very easy to read. I ordered the burrito supreme and an chorizo cheese dip and everything was absolutely delicious. You can really taste the care that goes into the cooking. Highly recommend—thank you for such a great meal...
