“ I tried the Baja Tacos here today at El Camino's and I would say they were quite excellent, I would definitely recommend them. I've also tried other things before as well, such as the Fajitas, Taco Salad, Chimichanga, Beef Burrito, and perhaps a variety of other foods that I like pretty well too; though among the things I've tried, while the Fajitas is one of my top favorites, I would say the Baja Tacos being as good as they are, easily makes it high on my list of foods to deem as a favorite. Aside from the food, the atmosphere is friendly as well as the service is good. Also to add, Carlos (the owner of the restaurant) and his family are wonderful people too. ”
“ Wonderful place to eat! Our server Jessica was top notch kept our drinks, chips and salsa full and kept checking in to see if anything was needed! only issue the chicken was tough but our server offered another meal to make it right. ”

“ Came here for the first time last night. It was awesomely delicious!! Food was great, as well as the servers; each employee was outstanding. Try the raspberry margaritas ... ”
“ We went Tuesday night and had a fabulous meal. The carnitas were the best I have had. I got them in a chimichanga but will get them in tacos next time. We had the best waiter Miguel and will ask for his section next time. Highly recommend. ”
“ This is a great place for all of your favorite Mexican flavors. The service here is fast and you will likely get seated quickly. It is an easy restaurant to find located just south of the court house square in a small shopping area. The facility is kept clean. The food is very tastey and will come out quickly and hot. There is plenty of parking in the large lot and it is free. ”
“ If I could give six stars and a slice of my burrito to El Camino's, I would. The food? Amazing. Every bite was packed with flavor, and the portion sizes were no joke—definitely come hungry or bring a to-go plan. The atmosphere was a pleasant surprise—super clean, stylish, and artsy in a way that made us feel like we’d stumbled into a trendy hidden gem. It’s cool without trying too hard. Now, Autumn. What can I say? She was beyond amazing. Attentive, kind, funny, and made us feel totally at ease without hovering. We told her we were on our second date, and not only was she impressed with our vibes, she gave us genuine laughs and made the whole experience feel extra special. We’ve already decided: when we get married (too soon? maybe...), Autumn’s invited. She was that good. ”
