El Gallo Mexican Cuisine — Restaurant in Hawthorne

At one point I wanted to try Mexican food , not Taco Bell. I ran across El Gallo. I figured I'll give it a try. Let me tell you.... To say I was impressed is an extreme understatement, if you like it spicy ask and they'll accommodate you to your desire. Now I have tried almost every dish, and plan to completely try everything they offer. The food comes well prepared and as I expected. I've stopped ordering Chinese or Italian. Let me tell you I don't write reviews on anything, this restaurant I had to; The food is great the guacamole is out of this world, and I've had it before at a another restaurant. The delivery drivers are top notch, friendly, polite considerate and they deserve a they deserve a 30% tip or more. This is not fast food take out " this is real food and healthy". I rate this experience 5 diamonds out of 5. And like I said before I don't write reviews for anything not even Amazon. If you want to try Mexican, scratch that, great food give El Gallo a try, you won't be disappointed its home cooked meal that you can order.

Keep up the great work......I have been telling others of...

I came here hungry for just a burrito, but ended up getting a whole different experience! You can tell the chefs put love and effort into the food they make, everything is fresh and tasty! I ended up settling on a chicken quesadilla with a side of refried beans and it definitely hit the spot. And like any authentic Mexican restaurant, they give you fresh chips and salsa once you sit down (always reassures me that I'm not about to be served microwave food!!!)

The owner Rey was our host for the evening and you can tell he cares about his business. He's extremely personable and makes sure his guests are happy and taken care of. 10/10 job on his part!

If you're in the area don't pass this place up. You have to find parking on the street but don't let that stop you from coming here - it's worth it! I'll be sure to pass by again next time I'm in the area, I need to try the rest of...

My husband brought home dinner from here he was in the mood for burritos . So as usual my 11 year old and I always order carnitas in our burrito . So my husband called and order 4 burritos 2 of which were filled with carnitas. After my extremely hungry 11 year old ate 3/4 of this damn burrito she pulls out a chunk of RAW pork literally RAW uncooked pork. So of course I was dissecting my burrito which was also filled with raw pork. Very upsetting after spending 75$ on 4 burritos 2 of which uneatable. Still trying to figure out how someone doesn’t see that they filled 2 burritos with raw meat. This was my first time visiting this establishment I wouldn’t recommend nor will I be back considering how sick my daughter could have gotten . This is what my daughter pulled out...
