Love the food the staff is just not very friendly until of course my pretty young wife came with me then two of the waiters had the audacity to hit on her and ask her for her phone number and pretend that I wasnt even sitting there so aside from rude employee the reason I even gave it the reading that I did it because the food is that good however if you dont like your girlfriend or your woman to be hit on dont bring them here because the staff himself will be doing the pick up line. The only reason I didnt make a scene about it is because I was tired so instead of done again with simple change the order to go I will also add that I ordered a specific type of tequila and they were out of it and Im so the bartender give me a cheap version of celebrating my glasses and then tell me that it was the more expensive version so I would go there to order out but I would never eat there again and never drink there again

This isnt my #1 Mexican restaurant in Woodstock, but its probably my #2. Most of their food that Ive tried is kinda average, but their burrito loco is out of this world. They have two different types... The chicken or steak. My wife loves it too, so we split one order (its a lot of food), and ask them to make it 1/2 chicken and 1/2 streak b/c we can never decide which one is better. The prices are very reasonable, the staff is great, the chips/salsa/cheese dip is really good and their margaritas are some of the best Ive ever had. I wont speak to the other items on the menu, but if you order the burrito loco, I feel pretty confident that youll come back and order it again.

Person Hello
WAIT ...THERES A TACO BELL ACROSS THE STREET. My wife and I both ordered chicken in our meals, She a non meat eater and I with heart disease both got beaf. Then after returning the food my wife was lied to about making a new meal. They just picked off the beaf and brought it back.Management needs to take seriously the request of its patrons. I understand mistakes are made, however copping attitudes and lieing are not remedies. As for the food i dont know. Since we couldnt eat it i cant say .At this point we didnt trust the staff for a 3rd trip back to the kitchen. Lousey place. Wont go back!!!!

Terrible service most of the time. Not just the servers, but if you ask the food runners for something, you wont get it. I had to even go to the bar for silverware despite asking 2 different people. Our waitress took our order after like 20 minutes of waiting, never to return until it was time for a check. It wasnt always this way, it used to be very good with great service but things have gone down hill. There are too many better choices in the area.

Just finished a meal with my family. Mine and my wifes food was good, however my daughter ordered the kids cheeseburger and the bun she received was rock hard. Now I realize I shouldnt expect a gourmet hamburger from a Mexican restaurant but the cooks should also recognize a ROCK HARD bun...told my server only to watch him go back into the kitchen and MICROWAVE a new bun...come on...

Food was way better than Los Bravos, but service was horribly slow. The margarita was a waste of money. I couldnt drink it because it was too sweet. They need better servers and a decent bartender. They give a lot of food though. It had good flavor. The chips were fresh, and that was a great way to start.

This is the worst restaurant Ive ever been to in my life. Mexican food is one of the easiest to cook. I mean how can you mess up a taco? The food was bland, they only serve refried beans.. Disgusting. Ill never come here again and I wont recommend this restaurant to anyone!

Service is terrible. Two meals were messed up and my parents got there food after I was done. Got someone elses check. Staff needs to learn more English. Good food just need better service. Manager was on break the whole time. Terrible experience.

It took them three times to serve my chicken and cheese Quesadilla! First they served me plain cheese, next they served me plain chicken, and last, finally they served me what I Wanted! After that, my family never went to that place ever again.

I bring my family here on occasion because its very close to home. While its not the best food or service, its also not the worst. I usually get the chicken soup, which is consistently decent, and I like the chips and salsa for the most part.

WORST mexican food Ive ever eaten in my life. Service was AWFUL. Food came out cold. Took 20 minutes before we had to walk to the kitchen and ask for chips. Never laid eyes on a menu. Terrible experience. Dont even want to give it one star.

Service good. Atmosphere nice. Salsa great. Food unbeable...barely edible. Fajitas were fried in last years oil! How can you ruin a taco? Need to do much better with the food--after all, thats why we are there.

My husband and I have been eating here for years! We absolutely love this place! Great food, awesome service and tasty margaritas! We highly recommend El Jinete to anyone and hope they enjoy it as much as we do!

Family friendly, good food, friendly staff. My personal favorites are the traditional tacos and the Camarones Mocambo (shrimp in chipotle sauce). They get busy on Friday nights so get there early.

Good Mex. Ive eaten here 10 times and every time service and food is solid. Not sure why all the negative reviews on here. In fact one of the better Mex food establishments Ive ever eaten at.

Delicious fajitas! Very well seasoned, we got the order for two and it was loaded with chicken, steak, shrimp, pork, and more. The pico and beans lacked seasoning. Very friendly staff!!

Carnitas were super dry. More like chipped beef than juicy tender carnitas. Steak fajitas were relatively cold and also dry. Guac was the only redeeming quality. We will not be back.

Food and service was terrible. Chips were probably yesterdays uneaten batch. Not to mention my grilled chicken nachos tasted just about as bad as they smelled. Never coming back.

Food inconsistent. Wait staff ok. Found a hair in the cheese dip and they asked if I another one. Never apologized or even acted concerned. I come here because of the deck.

I had a hair in my food. They would serve a side of guacamole. Was only saying dip for $3.99 Im not cheap but this place sucks. No way I would give it even 1 star

All the servers were friendly, and came back repeatedly to refill our chips and drinks. The guacamole was really quite good and my dinner came out excellent.

My go-to Mexican restaurant for pickup. Food is always quick and fresh. Not one to drive out of the way to get, but definitely worth stopping at if hungry.
