    This place is amazing. The service was wonderful, the Sangria is epic and the food is delicious. I will definitely be returning. It’s now one of my favorite places. The brunch is a great way to try a bunch of different dishes.

    Used to be so much better. Now it just seems like everyday Mexican food. Service was very challenging as well We always looked forward to going here but now just ordinary

    What Happened? Used to be the go-to for Mexican. Menu weak, service very slow. Food bland and portions small. Music very loud and not appropriate for dinnertime. Plenty of staff present, 12 empty tables at dinner on Friday.. Clearly, I was the last to get the message. Complete waste of $160. NEVER AGAIN! Very sad this place had a lot of promise.

    We arrived at 2:00 PM for a Mothers Day early dinner and we had no trouble being seated. The Server was good and the food very good. We will definitely return.

    Not impressed. Hard , not fresh rice, same for the beans . Food was not worth taking leftovers home. The only thing we enjoy was the guacamole. Will not go again.

    El Gaupo never disappoints! Being Valentine's Day, it was very busy. The food was excellent and the service superb! Thank you for a lovely evening!

    Delicious! Everyone was happy with their meals (including the kids!) Portions were generous enough that we all took a little home for later.

    Told a meal was Gluten Free when really it was not. Thank goodness we asked to see the label on the food product. Another meal had way too much green sauce on it. Chips were then very soggy and all you tasted was the green sauce. We had a very lovely waitress who did all she could to make things right. So loud in this restaurant when busy. Has great happy hour deals!! I will come back.
