We are early birds and are regulars when we find a place we like; so looking for a new place since we moved and went on a Friday about 330. Seated quickly and they accommodated our request for a booth. Our server was Victoria and a teammate India . Drinks were tweaked orders and they executed on all the special requests. Chips were fresh and the choice of red and green salsas a nice touch. Food came out and was really good. Nice date “night” for these boomers. Very happy to over tip! Would like a patio, as typically indoors is difficult for me to hear. It was ok when we started but was getting “loud” by 5 when we were leaving. Strongly recommend.

Always good food and service at Gringo's! They brought back my favorite menu item, Chicken El Dorado! Now if they would just bring back the pulled pork enchiladas! I had the El Dorado tonight and I would give it a 4.5. tonight it was a little bit overdone but still very good. The service had told us previously that they only had one cook in the kitchen so I can understand how busy it must have been in there. So give them points for the hard work! They did a great job , grace under pressure.

Outstanding customer service, loved our server super nice if correct her name was Trinity. The food was great, went with something different & got the chicken & steak mix, delicious & my partner got the enchiladas. My wait was no big deal since I got on the waitlist on OpenTable, overall good experience.

Guys, if you haven’t been to Gringo take the time to go out and try them. They are absolutely amazing. I mean the food is super fresh service is great. I mean for me took me a little to get me a little while longer to get my food but it’s OK because it’s really good. I got patient lol so I was able to deal with the wait but once again Husband and I enjoy ourself

Outstanding food! Pork Tamales are amazing. The hot sauce wasn’t hot enough for us but they do offer a hotter one which was perfect. Queso is great! Chips light and crunchy. Quick service. Huge parking lot.

The food was delicious and the portions were insanely large. My daughter got the chicken fajitas and I got the Enchiladas. We had to take most home as we couldn't eat it all. The resturant was clean and the staff was super nice.

My wife and I decided to try this place out. We've been past it numerous times but just haven't stopped in. We're definitely glad that we did. The food was great, the service was great as well. I had the Bangin' shrimp tacos, and my wife had the Cheese enchilada dinner. Afterwards, we split an order of sopapillas which were really good as well. Overall, we had a great experience and will be back again. Also, they give a military discount.
