Awesome Place!!! Food is really good!!Excellent Service!! Mexician Flag Drink is really good!!! Pain Killer is good too!!! Clean Inside!! We are from Houston!!
This place is fantastic. Superb service. Great attitudes from employees. Quick service.
Went to lunch today and got my money out to pay bill and in doing so pulled out bill money & left on seat. The waiter came running out to parking lot with all the money & returned it before I even made it to my car. Very honest employees. You don’t find that much anymore. I’m now a more customer than I was before. Thank you so much. .
Always great!! Food is always the same and always delicious. We eat Mexican a lot and I have yet to find anywhere that compares. Especially the Tamales!!!
Always a great place to enjoy a Mexican-style meal. When they make a mistake, just let them know. They are happy to get it right for you. Ive been coming here for years and Ill keep coming back. Great food, great experience.
A little loud with clanging dishes and voices, but the food and service was exceptional!
It has great fresh food. My family loved it. We will be going back.
From start to finish my experience at this restaurant was phenomenal. Walking in, we were IMMEDIATELY greeted and seated (though we were a party of 8 and they were packed). The service was phenomenal! Within minutes of being seated, we ordered drinks, and our meal and it was placed in front of us HOT AND DELICIOUS in less than 5 mins. Before our complimentary chips were out and we even had time to have a need, our waitress brought us a new basket. A spill was made, they IMMEDIATELY and with joy cleaned it thoroughly! They were quick to have refills and provide the check in a timely manner. The manager like his team was also GREAT! I was so impressed I asked specifically for him to compliment their service. Even this request was fulfilled in less than a minute. We were even sent off with a complimentary key chain and Cinco de mayo tshirt. I would definitely recommend this restaurant and visit again very soon!
Good food and staff,!
Really enjoyed lunch here. Fajitas and margaritas. Happy hour $3.99 margaritas and they did NOT skimp on the alcohol. It's a creeper. Lol. The salsa was also very good with the perfect amount of heat.
Drink was good. Food was good but could have been presented better
Great food and great server.
Excellent customer service and jam up food.
Highly recommend
Israel is now our go to margarita maker. We made this our top spot to go to. Staff is super friendly.
We had the best time there. Staff was friendly and welcoming. Really great bar as well.
Really nice bar lights food was good
Excellent. I tried the pork and it was tender and delicious with just the right seasoning. My wife had the taco salad which had a most unusual flavor but very nice. Portions are huge. It would get 5 stars but decor and age of furnishings were detracting. Don't let that drop you from trying though. We will definitely go back to try some of the dishes we had never seen before on a Mexican menu.
My family and I love coming here. On our last visit, service was top notch. Julio took care of us. He kept our cups full, replenish our chips, and check on us throughout our visit. Food was good as well. We got the spinach enchiladas, chicken and steak fajita salad, a chicken burrito, and kids pizza.
Great service and food is the best in town!
I love the salsa and chips but when I asked for a second helping of salsa it had no flavor whatever as if someone left something out. No excuse for that
Full as a tick ! Excellent service and taste.
The food was abundant and reasonable.
GreAt food, fun and margaritas
Great drinks food came out fast.
Staff was friendly and kind. The food was pretty tasty. It was a little bland but the wait to receive our meal was not over 25 minutes. The waitress me and my date had made great eye contact and was attentive to our table. I would come back here again for sure.

Very courteous very clean very nice place food is more than worth the value recommend them 100%
Fantastic , great food, enjoyed time with my son
Everything about this place is top tier. We eat a lot of mexican food and this is the one we go to every time we are trying to eat in Flowood. They have the most variety in their menu and the most consistent food. The owner, John, is a perfectionist and will not settle for anything below the best quality. John and his staff will treat you like family everytime you eat at his restaurant.
The food was great as it always is the bar tender was a little heavy handed when it came to my mixed drink but it was still good if you like your drinks strong
Always good! Yummy!
A little slow on service but very nice staff.
(Translated by Google) Nice place only that they take a long time to give the food but in what fits well !!

Lugar agradable solo q tardan mucho en dar la comida pero en lo q cabe bien!!
Our waiter was very attentive and kind and our food was good. The atmosphere here, however, is very loud making even conversations between my wife and I very difficult.
Good food and service but its always loud and can be hard to have a conversation with more than 2 or 3 people.
(Translated by Google) Good place, only the Swiss enchiladas are not that good :(

Definitely happy to have found this place, having came here from CA I had tried other places in the area they don't compare
Excellent food, good margaritas and friendly service!
Staff was friendly and accommodating to my large party. Food was decent.
The food was good. The service adequate while sitting on the empty outdoor patio. Really good price on margaritas as late as 7pm on a Monday.
No place to sit while waiting 25 mins for a table.Poor service. Decent food except the guac. Great margaritas.
Very nice place ,friendly host good was good

Great service and amazing food!
Good food
Steak fajitas are similar to the other restaurants,they were good but nothing to "die" for. Margarita was good, but basic like most mexican chains.
No complaints everything went great little pricey but whats not !!
This is by far the best Mexican Restaurant I've been to in Mississippi! The Service is great and the food and drinks are Money! Best Decor for a Mexican Restaurant I've seen too! Will definitely be a frequent customer!

This is our go-to Mexican spot. That's saying a lot when you have 7 other Mexican places within a 2 mile vicinity. Prices are just right. The service and staff are great. They even re-opened their kitchen for us one night when we walked in near closing time as they knew every other restaurant was closed. They honestly treat you like family here and that is why they are superior!
Out of the countless Mexican eateries in town, this is my favorite. Good service, good food, always consistent. If you haven't been, you're missing out!
Great food great service
great food and excellent service
Great food n service
The first waiter couldn't speak English so they replaced him with one that could. Other that it would have been 5 stars
Great food and. Customer services
Delicious Food, nice service very Clean and safe
Oh my gosh! So delicious! I highly recommend it. Even if you have a kiddo that isn't "into" this culinary delight of a restaurant they have many scrumptious options. We had a to-go order that was two person fajitas and it's phenomenal and a great portion. Also, the in house atmosphere is fantastic, and we each tried something else which was dynamite too. Additionally, the service is great both ways!
Great food good environment would recommend to anyone
OMG!! Amazing food and awesome service!! Alejandra was an amazing server!! We will definitely be back to see her!!
Good food but expensive
Stopped in after shopping and was taken by surprise! Don't let the outside (2 restaurants in one building) fool you!
Ordered the fajitas for two and margaritas! Margs were awesome! Best in the area I've had for sure, and the fajitas were perfect.
Live music between 6-8 pm, very clean, crowded, and great service!
Good food and service
A bit pricier than most local Mexican places, but the quality is definitely there! Friendly waitress was quick with a recommendation when I couldn't find exactly what I was looking for on the menu, and she helped me to customize a dish that was perfect for my special dietary needs.
The bar tender continued to come up missing but he was still nice. Nice food.
Carry out lunch was great as well as the service.
While visiting Jackson for work, I needed a #tacotuesday meal and found El Portrillo to be very near my hotel- thankfully walking distance! They have tasty tacos, enchiladas, tamales, and -of course/ margaritas.
Clean and comfortable tables, friendly waitstaff and greeters. Would definitely return.
We really enjoyed El Portillo! The menu offers a variety of special dinners and the classics. We ordered fajitas and shredded chicken enchiladas. The portions were huge and everything tasted great. The margaritas were strong and served with fresh sliced fruit. And shout out to our server, Adam, he was so friendly and attentive.
The food is good here a little pricier than usual Mexican restaurants but I will say you get a larger quantity of food. The inside of the restaurant is very beautiful!! We went on a Friday evening it was 4 of us and had a 20 min wait @ 7pm to be seated and it took until 9:30 to be finished. Seems like a long time to me! The server was busy but we waited over 20 min just for the check. And that long in between to order and so on and so forth.
2/23/3019- Good food. Good friendly service. Very nice atmosphere. I really enjoyed my visit
Great authentic Mexican food, reasonably priced and served in a nice atmosphere. The staff is very friendly and hospitable. I went for lunch and was very pleased.
I love to eat here. Margaritas are great! Food is very good . Sometimes they rush you at near closing time and that's why only 4 stars.
In Flowood on business. This place is a short walk from Hilton Garden Inn. I pulled up to a stool at the bar. Had a huge ice cold beer in minutes and chips and salsa. Chips and salsa was good, not spectacular but probably appeals to a wide range of pallets. The menu is encyclopedic. I think I spent 10 minutes reading it. I settled on Matt's appetizer which had bacon wrapped shrimp, chicken and steak quesadillas, tamales, and barbacoa and chicken flautas. As a meal it could easily feed two. All for $14 which was a pretty good deal. Quesadillas and bacon shrimp were my fav on the plate.
I have lived, worked, and ate at Mexican restaurants in Seattle, LA, and Mexicali MX, so please continue reading this review.
First finding a restaurant cooking their own fresh tortillas is very rare and there is nothing better to get them fresh. Seeing that first, I knew I was going to order their Carnitas de Salsa Verde (aka Chile Verde) which is chucks of Braised Pork in a Green Sauce made mostly from Tomotillas.
What I got was absolutely AMAZING!!!!! I worked in a Mexican restaurant in high school and started making Chile Verde at home after it closed down, because I had the recipe and couldn't find a place that made it better than I could at home.
What El Portrillo served me was the BEST I ever had in over 20 years. It was so good, I made my waiter walk me back into the cocina (kitchen) and not only thanked the chef, but also provided him a gratuity that would cover a few cases of their favorite cerveza.
I honestly didn't read why this place has such poor reviews, and usually take a lot of faith in my fellow Yelpers and probably wouldn't have stopped here except that I wanted a margarita and was short on time.
So glad I didn't take them off my list, to find a place with 4 Stars or higher.
I like this place...it has plenty of seating and tv's are always on a good football, basketball, baseball or soccer game. The portions are huge and the consistency of the dishes are on point. They have separate bar room and the It has never taken me long to get my food and I've had birthday parties with 10 people in it, the service was just as good when 2 people dined in. My go to dishes are the Happy Plate Texana or the Quesadilla Suprema Texana, both are great.
I was quite surprised about this restaurant.
I ordered a top shelf margarita. I asked them to blend it, as opposed to ice. It was delicious!
I ordered the spinach quesadillas. They were excellent!
I will definitely be coming back.
The waitress was wonderful, and I am sorry that I don't know her name.
Ordered the Carnitas en Salsa Roja and I thought it was really good. Pork was tender and the sauce was bomb --- very flavorful and good amount of spice. They give good portions and it will definitely fill you up. They also gave free chips and salsa. Chips were fresh and crispy and salsa was great.
Great food and service. Would recommend this place.
Best traditional Mexican I have found so far in the area! While there are a few authentic Mexican restaurants in the area, this is the Mexican that us Southerners hold near and dear to our hearts, white cheese dip and all!! Also, the prices are great for the amount of food you receive, even on the lunch menu!! The service is great and the portions are perfect for food now and leftovers later! I'll definitely be returning to El Portrillo during my time in the area!
The best Mexican restaurant in Jackson metro area! Fresh salsa, freshly made flour tortillas and wonderful service. Never had a bad experience.

El Portrillo was nothing but tremendous customer service from start to finish during my experience.
I first called in and spoke with Angela who greeted me through the phone with a smile! She was very nice and super helpful in some questions I had!
Emad, the owner, truly cares about his business and was willing to go the extra mile to make sure he took the time to speak to me.
Definitely worth a visit if you're in the area!
Great staff! More than generous portions for the price.
I Loved the food the portion size was large. My dinner could have feed two people.
One of my favorites in town. Always good.
Nice service good food priced right
Great Mexican joint. Fast, good, and good service. Definitely in our list of places to go when in town.
Me and my wife are from Georgia we come to Mississippi to visit quite often and every chance we get we stop by El Portrillo the service is excellent and the food is wonderful we encourage things to say if you never tried it you don't know what you're missing you to keep up the good work
Great food! Great prices! Very nice staff!
Great service and excellent food
Fairly generic, but tasty and quick Mexican food. Quick and attentive service.
Omg fell in love with this place best Mexican food ever
Great food great atmosphere
Good Mexican food, but a little expensive. Very small queso for the price.
Good food, large portions. Friendly fast service.
This is the best Mexican restaurant of the 11 within a 1 mile radius. Very good salsa, good food, and always friendly.
Good food. Nothing spectacular or distinguishing from any other restaurants of the type. Servers where nice and food was fast.
The atmosphere was great. Lot's of aztec adornments and decorations. The food was delicious, reasonably priced and generously portioned. The waitstaff was attentive and helpful.
Food is really good! I love their Fajitas and appetizer plate! Dinner service is great! Every now and then I get a bad server for Lunch. Prices are totally reasonable. Their wine pours are very generous too!
Try the cheese dip! It was melted white cheese with beans that was to die for. For my entree I had the beef and shrimp fajitas with all the fixings which came out fast and sizzling. The flavor was phenomenal and the service was even better. Don't forgot about the margaritas too, I enjoyed them and left satisfied!
My favorite Mexican cuisine bar none. Fast, hot, crazy fresh and good. Excellent consistent staff and service.
This is your typical Americanized Mexican restaurant. That being said the food is good and better than most order by the number places. Their menu is huge with lots of reasonably priced specialty items. The salsa is decent and the cheese dip is excellent. We always receive excellent service and continue to go here even though it isn't the closest to our house and we have lots of options.
Great food with large portions. Some of the best Mexican food we have eaten.
Great food. Great prices. Good service. Coldest beer around.
Hands down, the best Mexican food in the Jackson area! Everything is made fresh daily. The salsa is yum-o. Even the seafood is great!
The food was great but a little more expensive than most Mexican restaurants. Service was good and food came out at reasonable time but not as fast as some others.
Excellent service, generous portions (normal fajitas are more than enough for two), great flavor.
I cant belive some one wanted cheaper food. Great food, large portions and ice cold beer. I enjoyed.
Awesome! We love this place! Great food and generous portions. Friendly staff!
Great Place,Good Food and Grea...
Great Place,Good Food and Great Service!!!!
