El Puerto — Restaurant in McCook

We came to a nearby Kansas town for the holidays and met up with extended family for supper. Someone local suggested we go to El Puerto in downtown McCook. Our party of six got there an hour before closing and had an absolutely perfect experience. The waitstaff was attentive, pleasant, and helpful. The atmosphere was excellent - a beautiful Christmas tree graced the entrance, the place was bustling with holiday customers. The lighting was elegant yet still casual, the updated furnishings were much nicer than the usual sit-down Mexican restaurant. And the food! Oh my gosh everything we ordered was so delicious! It was all genuinely outstanding - from the generously portioned steak quesadilla my daughter had, to the flavorful enchiladas, shrimp tacos, chicken chimichangas and sizzling fajitas. It was all so good! Even the chips were warm! We finished as the posted closing time neared, but the eloquent waiter didn't rush us at all. As we were leaving, I told one of the waitstaff, "this was fantastic!" and I meant it! We will definitely be back and would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone near McCook. It is worth the drive if you are within an hour! You will be so...

While spending a couple days in McCook I decided to try this place out. Denver has plenty of choices for Mexican fare but not all are created equal. El Puerto (The Port) has an expansive menu and the prices are all very reasonable. Glad I decided to "dock" here!

Even though I stopped by during the dinner rush, I was seated promptly and my food came out in less than 10 minutes. The salsa offered with the tortilla chips was so thick the chips almost broke! Always a good sign.

I ordered the Enchiladas Supremas and all four enchiladas were delicious. Out the door with a solo dinner and drink for less than $20. Highly recommend if you're...

Great place for authentic Mexican food! My fiance and I had lunch with our pastor and his wife (they come here regularly and recommended it). He and I both ordered the dinner special which were HUGE! The ladies ordered the Monterey. They both enjoyed it and said it was delicious. They offered chips and salsa. We then asked for queso and guac. We also had a side of their delicious green Chile sauce with the meal. Would definitely recommend if you like...
