   Great tasting food, loved the tacos. The margaritas were good but very small and mostly ice, not worth it for the price.

    Great service. Great food and drinks. I sat facing the back wall, which is just dark grey - it could use some colour or decorations to match the rest of the restaurant. It was a bit too dark in the back corner as well.

    I would definitely recommend this restaurant, bar tender is fast, service is a little slow usually and food is a little slower but nice to enjoy your drink and talk with the relaxing ambience. Food is defiantly worth the wait.

    I picked this restaurant because of the guests previous reviews on open table, so I went, waiter was grumpy, we asked to change table and he was annoyed. Food is ok not impressed, overall experience was ok or good but not exceptional for sure.

    We had been to El Tres a few times before & the food was always good. We went on Saturday & ordered tacos. My husband had the sampler (4 tacos) & I had 3 fish tacos. We both agreed that the food wasn’t great. It was hard ,..and cold. Also the shredded beets in the fish tacos was tasteless & extremely messy. A nice slaw or shredded lettuce would have been better. Our server on the other hand, was great! Because of the quality of our meals, we will not rush back.

    The ambience was excellent from the moment we entered. Our server was very friendly, personable, a good sense of humour, very attentive and knowledgeable about the menu, food sensitivities, allergies and gluten free options. We most certainly will return.

    We definitely enjoyed our dining experience at El Tres, but the lighting was very poor. We could not see our meals or what we were eating. Being able to see your food and the ingredients is very much a part of the dining experience.

    Best margaritas I have had in some time. Service was excellent and food very good - group had appetizers and not entrees. Wait staff (Nick) provided just the right amount of attention - not overbearing but there when we needed. I will definitely be a return customer as will the guests in my party.

    The margaritas and guacamole are worth it. The other menu items are average. The service this time was substandard. Not enough servers we think.

    We went there as a family for my wife's birthday celebration on January 7, 2023. The food was amazing. We felt that there could have been more attention from the server. The place was packed. He made good suggestions about the menu, but we missed the high-quality service (checking on drinks, clearing the table, and quick chatting). We could not ask questions as he was running all the time, saying, "I will be right back"; we heard this statement 6 or 7 times. We always go as a family for lunch. In the future, we will stick to that (maybe not a child place in the evening, just a thought!). Overall, it was a good experience, and the food was perfect (you can tell they go into detail to prepare it)—food 10/10.

    Great food, atmosphere and staff! I would definitely recommend eating there. There were only two waiters working for a full house. I would have given 5 stars for service if another waiter was on shift. I would also like to see corn tortillas and nachos, instead of just wheat flour, for a more gluten friendly menu.
