The best fajita skillet in Columbus hands down. The ingredients are seasoned, all the food comes out hot & ready to eat. Definitely leave you satisfied. They have the best margaritas and happy hour on the north side!! And Columbus I think!

Okkkkkkkkay sooooo, I didn't like it. We came for the buffet. ONLY to be disappointed to discover they stop serving buffet after lunch😒. They have this combination platter where you can get three items your choice. I choice I hard taco and two soft taco. But they aren't authentic tacos (cilantro,diced onions or pickled onions, pineapple, your choice of meat, with lime or lemon) and they NOT American(lettuce, tomatoes, cheese). I dont know what the heck I received. The server said the 🌮 come with cheese and lettuce only and the chicken. Sooo where did these peppers and onions come from? Did ya serve me fajita chicken meat in my 🌮? AND it tasted blend. Best friend has a bean allergy specifically asked for no beans. WHAT to our surprise!! TWO bean hiding under his rice. Smh. WISH I could've said this place was more than unimpressive. Service was nice won't drink not that bad. NOW I WILL say there were 2 families of more than 8 testing there, and a few others as well. Will I be back....

I had a fantastic time dining at El Rodeo! The atmosphere was vibrant and welcoming, and the food was absolutely delicious. Every dish was flavorful and clearly made with fresh ingredients. The staff was super friendly and attentive, making sure we had everything we needed. Overall, it’s definitely a spot I’d rate a full 10 out of 10, and I can’t wait to come back for more amazing Mexican cuisine!

Came to this great Mexican restaurant for a lunch. Their dining room was beautiful with Mexican style decorations. The lake view at the patio was also great. Service was great. WiFi was not available. They also had daily specials and lunch buffet. Their free chips and salsa tasted wonderful. My steak fajita was also authentic and fresh. I liked the way they put some toasted tomatoes in it. The price was great with a large size.
