El Chango Borracho — Restaurant in Gretna

I wish I could review the food at this restaurant but my group of 7 was forced to leave prior to being seated. We waited nearly 2 hours for a table after being told the wait would only be about an 1 hour but I consider this understandable as my group was large and this restaurant doesn't take reservations. After the long wait, our table was finally ready but instead of sitting us at a table that could comfortable fit 7 people, the host wanted to sit us at a 6 top with 1 additional char jammed into the corner. After waiting for so long, my group just wanted to sit comfortably without jamming each other with our elbows the entire time we were eating. We asked that one of the 4 top tables that had been empty the entire time we were waiting outside be joined to our table so there would be enough space for everyone but the host refused. We spoke to the manager about the situation and he stated "that's the best I can do" without making any changes to the current table configuration. My friends and I felt completely disrespected and decided to leave rather than deal with what would likely be continued poor service. I've seen excellent reviews of this restaurant online, but given the level of service provided, I will not be returning even with a...

Let me start by saying that this is the best Mexican food I’ve had to date. I had lunch here and everything was delicious. They start you off with complimentary chips and salsa, both made fresh. I ordered the rib eye tacos that came with 3 tacos covered with some grilled veggies and melted mozzarella cheese and it was spectacular. For our appetizer we had birria fries that were big enough to be a full entree. They were covered with pickled grilled onions, peppers and cherry tomatoes with cheese, needless to say it was delicious. My girl had a half slab of pork ribs with a mango habanero sauce and it was delicious, had just the right amount of heat and sweetness. Along with the other sides that came with the meals everything was delicious. I tried bone marrow for the first time here, it came on side my rib eye tacos. That was ok, I wasn’t sure if I was supposed to just eat the marrow right out of the charred bone or not, but I added it on top my tacos and it was ok, can’t really describe the taste, but definitely worth trying out if you haven’t already. We ended the day with some margaritas and they were delicious and left me with a slight buzz. I’ll definitely be eating here again soon. The prices are good and the...

My husband and I have been wanting to try this place for a couple weeks now however we were very aware of it being busy so we tried it on a tuesday after 6 and only waited about 10 min. The first thing I noticed when we walked thru the doors was how beautiful the interior design was! The chairs are extremely comfortable I loved how large they are. The attention of service with our waitress was okay but it seemed that they were either short staffed or just behind on orders because our drinks took a while and so did the appetizer. I don’t recommend the house margarita it tasted very artificial maybe get the top shelf? We had the cactus salad for an appetizer and it was delicious it was served with a few deep fried tacos that consisted of a corn tortilla with a potato filling! I had the salmon which was delicious and served aesthetically pleasing. My husband had the tacos “ el gover” and they were delicious! Overall the food was great but I would say margaritas and service could be better nonetheless I would recommend and...
