El Portal Restaurant offers a wonderful blend of authentic Mexican flavors in a cozy setting. I particularly enjoyed their carne asada soft tacos, wrapped in warm corn tortillas - definitely a highlight! The live mariachi music added a festive touch, making it perfect for a casual gathering with friends. The outdoor seating is a must-try, especially with their refreshing margaritas. While the service was friendly, they seemed a bit overwhelmed. Overall, a great spot for tasty bites and a lovely atmosphere... 💃
