I went to El Salto's after the recommendation of many people and I was excited to try this place out. When I arrived at the restaurant, my expectations plummeted. The building was run down and the set up was unorganized. It seemed like no one knew where anything was. Service was awful, we had to wait forever for our order to be taken, drinks to come to the table, and check to be brought to us. I can understand if the place was busy, but we were one of three families dining that day. I would hate to have to eat here during a busy time! The food, when we finally got it, was tasteless and colorless. The salsa was made with canned tomatoes, tomato paste and was just BLAH. The chips were even stale. Oh and the portions were quite small, at least the taco salad I had was pretty sad looking. I don't believe the people that told me this place had good Mexican food have ever had GOOD Mexican food.

I have been eating at this restaurant since it first opened it's doors. I have endured excruciating slow, rude and neglectful service. But I continue to return. Why? The Chili Rellenos are the best I have ever had. Over the years this restaurant has grown and become much more customer friendly, and service has improved tremendously. That being said, there is still room for improvement. Twice, within the last couple of months, I have returned food which had obviously spoiled. Also, sometimes the food is so bland, and neglectfully prepared, I wonder why I keep returning. I contribute this to the different chefs/cooks in the kitchen. One of the chefs is definitely an expert in Mexican cuisine and no thought is too small in food preparation. However, one of the other chef's is a pretender and is just painting by the numbers. You will know who is working when your food is served. On the occasions I have complained, the staff were quick to resolve the problem. Overall I would say this restaurant is becoming one of the best. And I will return, I always do.

This restaurant is fantastic. I have never had a meal that I did not finish. The service is friendly and fast...and you can't find a cheaper, more delicious meal. About the 2 bad review's below mine, 'jcorrales' ordered way too many things on the menu, if you had ordered just one meal like the rest of us, you might have enjoyed yourself. Then 2 desserts? Come on now. Gross. And 'holisticlady' reviewed the El Salto in Parkville, not on Richie Highway...which is completely different... owned and run by different people...so that review needs to move to the Parkville El Salto.
