Elsa's Corner Cantina — Restaurant in Sugarcreek Township

I'm left flabbergasted, by the terrible food. Normally, for the sake of being polite, when someone buys me dinner, I'll at least eat part of my meal, even if I don't like it. This does occasionally happen with family who have different tastes. Not this meal.

It first sensed red flags with the wobbly table, and no where for my to place my bag, or phone, with a party of 6, but, okay, it's a bar, so I shrug it off. Then, the waiter appeared to forget about us, and we sat waiting. When the chips and salsa came, my hopes started to fall. The chips were horribly stale, and the salsa is watered-down, and has to be the cheapest whole sale salsa I've ever tasted.

I took the first sip of my soda - BAM my face contorts in horror; my soda tastes....moldy!!! How?? That soda dispensing machine can't have ever been cleaned! I shoved it aside, and resolved to ask for water. Spoiler: the waiter never hung around long enough for me to even ask.

When we ordered, the waiter seemed very inexperienced, which made the experience awkward. I will chalk it up to a learning period, but it didn't help my vote of this place.

As we waited, a family member noted how weak his Pina colada was - which, by the way, came in a normal soda glass - and I noticed that most of the alcoholic drinks were in carnival pre-mix, slushie, machine on the wall. Am I in a cheap Vegas dive??

When the food arrived, my eat-absolutely-everything partner, stopped eating his quesadilla, right as I took my first bite - I nearly gagged. It was stale tortilla, sprinkling of cheese, and microwave-boiled ground beef tossed in red grease. No vegetables, no seasoning. There is no way that was chorizo. I looked down at my toppings and see a heap of brown goop, and a tiny bit of tomatoes, which after testing, is reminisce of old onion you thought you could still squeeze your money's worth from, but definitely was past its prime.

I leaned over to try my partner's food, and oh boy, it was just as bad. We both stopped eating.

I'm legitimately concerned about health violations, let alone the poor preparation.

Can I give...

I rarely leave one star reviews but this Elsa's location earned this single star. I have been to Elsa's at other locations over many years and never had a bad experience. I went to this one with a group and even with the establishment over half empy the staff seemed confused and unsure how seat us; this dragged on for several minutes . Once finally seated I ordered the usual margarita and took a few sips , it tasted like syrup and was not good. I initially just let it sit there but the waitress came back by and asked how it was going and I was just honest with her that it was the worst margarita I have ever had at an Elsa's. I asked to send it back and she refused but wanted me to buy a beer if I didn't like it. I have never been to an establisment that wouldn't take back a poorly made drink. I finally just told her I didn't want it and to please tell them it was terrible. No one came to say we are sorry about that. She just said that the person who made it knows what they are doing and made it correctly. She ended up charging me for the drink and I paid for it as they had no care at all about my issues. They may have sold me one margarita, but they would have sold me food and a few beers if they would have just taken back the poorly prepared margarita or simply offered to remake it. I know I will not be going back and I cannot recommend this...

If I could do no stars I absolutely would. My boyfriend & I can here today for lunch and had a horrible experience. Waited forever to even be greeted & to get drinks, chips took forever to get. I ordered a chicken burrito with no beans was brought out what seemed like basically a burrito with nothing BUT beans and the chicken tasted like it came from a can which was nasty. Had my burrito remade and the second time it came out I couldn’t even touch it because it looked so disgusting, who wants a whole mound of cheese on their burrito?? I asked to speak to the manager when the server brought the check over and voiced my concerns about the service, the disgusting food and if we were able to atleast get my burrito removed from the bill since I didn’t eat it & she caught an attitude and only said “okay” and my boyfriend had to speak up again and ask if that was okay and all she said was “ well from the looks of it you guys barely touched anything so you can leave” no apology or anything. This place is not a mexican restaurant what so ever, it screams sports bar with a mexican restaurant title. I basically only ate chips because that was the only edible thing that looked appetizing. This restaurant should be on Kitchen Nightmares or Bar rescue because...
