It is situated on the corner of a shopping street.
They offer a lunch menu on weekdays.
This time, I opted for the ceviche, but unfortunately, the seafood was not fresh and had a very unpleasant texture.
However, the cheese dip was excellent.

El Porton's chicken soup (see the photo below) is one of the best bowls of soup available at any Little Rock restaurant, and at $8.99 for a big bowl of soup, it's a bargain.
It contains lots of tender chicken, rice, pico de gallo, slices of avocado, and a good bit of chopped cilantro.
Well-made soups are increasingly hard to find in a lot of local restaurants.
It's too easy to throw together some mix of fat, salt, and thickening, flavor it with this or that, and call that a bowl of soup.
Making a good broth or stock takes time and skill, after all.
El Porton's chicken soup is the real deal.
A bowl of it is so large that, unless you have an enormous appetite, you'll end up sharing it with your table companion. Other items on the menu are tasty, too, from the street tacos to the piquant salsa.
But it's the chicken soup I return to El Porton for, over and over.
It's the best to be found in this area.

Went with coworkers for lunch.
As soon as we sat down they were there with complimentary chips and salsa and to take drink orders.
There were 4 of us and we each had different dishes.
They have a smart serving robotic tray with a cat face playing music to bring out the food.
I had the California Burrito but it was cold.
I was told it was this way because of the cold ingredients but I asked to have it heated.
They prepared a new burrito steaming hot along with the plate being hot as well.
It was stuffed more with shredded chicken this time and delicious.
The staff was very friendly and all the food was great.
