Sofi's Mexican Restaurant — Restaurant in El Paso

This place is okay... probably some of the better menudo on the westside. I was pretty disappointed with my "lonche" which is what they consider a ham sandwich with cheese, lettuce, tomato, and avocado. Let me say, it was literally two pieces of sliced ham that you can honestly purchase from Sam's or walmart Deli in between a soggy french bread. The fries were pretty disappointing too, they were either fried in oil that was too cold before placing the raw potato or they simply did not cook them long enough. There service is also hit or miss. A lot of the ladies who work there hang around the kitchen window until an order comes out or until somebody needs to get seated. Good luck getting them to come to your table once your meal has been delivered to check on you. My family has come here plenty of times, and although I understand the pandemic has affected many businesses, quality should not have been affected nor should the service. On the plus side, their tortilla chips are amazing... found out they are actually purchased from a nearby meat market. Give it try, you might catch them on a good day; just go early, because they close in...

It is slightly challenging to review this place because it is hit or miss depending on what you order. My reviews always focus on the delicious but I'll mention later some items that could use improvement.

First, all the burritos are delicious. Every time I visit, I get a burrito on the side of my main meal and every time the burrito is my favorite. I often get the chile relleno or the chicharron. The chilaquiles are also very very good. The chips are perfectly crunchy and the sauce has the right balance of spice with a rich thick flavor. My mom's favorite whenever I go with her is the soup. It is very good but not my go to. So if you do visit, I highly recommend their burritos, chilaquiles, and their juevos rancheros.

Now, unfortunately, not everything is as delicious as the burritos. I only ordered the torta de milenesa once and I did eat the whole thing. However, it lacked alot of flavor. Maybe it was a one off but I did not enjoy the meal. For now on, I will stick to...

The food did not have fresh ingredients and the quality was poor for the price. My friend and I had lunch at this restaurant. My guacamole was already dark brown and black in spots. They added extra cilantro and pico de gallo on the top to camouflage it. My friend had enchiladas with moldy cheese and a piece of plastic in them. She was very nice about the incident and let the waitress and the owner know that it was served to her. She said she was not looking for a refund because she had already eaten more than half the plate, but she thought they would like to know. They did not care, and did not even apologize. I was more apologetic because I took her to that restaurant. I will not go there again. 18$ for a one person lunch with poor quality ingredients is ridiculous. It’s a shame because the food is good, but who wants to eat moldy cheese...
