I have been to two of the mariachi restaurants on many occasions and have never left disappointed, though each time I have left quite full. The food is served efficiently and very hot. We have always felt that we received a lot of food for the $ we spent. Parking Can Be Tough, But otherwise A great experience.

Mexican food confuses me. It seems very similar to itself very often. But I like it. Just not the fast food kind, I guess I need to find more authentic. Which I think this place is.

Food always comes out fast and hot! Delicious Mexican food. I usually get the enchiladas and they are fabulous! Margaritas are great here too. Super friendly staff!

Not what I expected in a strip mall. Decent Mexican food, loud atmosphere. Wait staff attentive and worked as a team. Only gripe was a slow check at the end of our meal.

El Mariachi is a solid choice for Mexican food. The restaurant is nice, the staff attentive and the food consistently tasty. The prices are very reasonable and you get good sized portions. A good bet.

Delicious Mexican food! Very authentic- comparable to the Mexican food you would get in San Diego. Best chips and salsa around. Highly recommend the fajitas and enchiladas. Margaritas are great as well.
