Review by Savion V.

El Camino offers a cozy vibe with a trendy twist, perfect for a casual dinner. I indulged in their steak tacos, and they were surprisingly tender and flavorful. The chicken mole, rich with spices, left me wanting more. Happy hour margaritas at just $4 were irresistible, making them a highlight of the night. The staff was attentive, particularly Marvin, who made us feel right at home. Though the guacamole was on the pricier side for the portion, overall, it's a delightful spot worth frequenting. 🌮
