El Loro - Mexican restaurant in New Hope - 7849 N 42nd Ave, USA

I’m absolutely blown away by the service at El Loro in New Hope/Crystal. Fastest food service I’ve experienced before. The food was very delicious/authentic and the drinks were fantastic! My only complaint is that the margaritas weren’t big enough 😉

My husband picked up food for dinner tonight and can I just say, I’d rather have starved to death. We ordered taquito meal, got two really nasty chicken burritos with chicken and onions and a few peppers with really watery queso on top. GROSS! Ordered bean dip, it was watery queso and the beans tasted burned. My husband got a burrito that was supposed to have chorizo, steak and chicken it only had chorizo and he got two with no rice or beans. Thank god they didn’t screw up the chimi. I used to love this place and have had these items before and loved them. I will never go back! It was absolutely disgusting. Our to go meal was about $75 and they should be paying us for the wasted drive to pick it up.

I've been to several El Loros all over the metro but I only ever order one meal: the Burrrito Ruleta. This is fire 🔥! I order it every time, for the past 10 years at least and it never fails. Grilled chicken in a burrito, doused in a cheesy blanket with rice and pico de gallo on the side. Amazing. I don't have any idea what the other food in their giant menu tastes like, but you'll never go wrong with the Burrito Ruleta. I also go to El Loro if I want a margarita (frozen or ice) with a real kick. They don't bother with that watery nonsense you buy at other restaurants, El Loro gives you the real deal. Lol Lastly, I love the new location because it is bright! The Crystal location will always have a nostalgic place in my heart but I do love all the windows at the 42nd Ave place.

Food was delicious and quick. Service was friendly. Kids menu had lots of options. Lots of drink options as well. Love how colorful the place is, especially the booths.

Service was good! She was tentative. Service 4/5. Food was 2/5. The food was way over cooked, and to much cheese sauce. It was like they know they over cooked it and tried to hide it with cheese sauce. The restaurant was large, so much unused space, was not busy at all. There was stuff random spots throughout half of the unused restaurant. Bathrooms were kinda gross, flies, all the cleaner sitting on the counter. Not sure if I would go back.

First time here. They transformed the Country Kitchen to a Mexican Restaurant! Delicious food. The service was super fast, and food arrived quickly. To be honest, it was too fast that we felt rushed. I prefer to take a little time to get through the menu and enjoy the company of those I'm dining with. Because of the quick food, we weren't there very long. Don't get me wrong, we all were impressed with the food and will be back! Delicious! Be aware, they add a service fee without mentioning it if you use a credit card. Irritating as more and more businesses sneak in fees...

This is a must go whenever I'm home. My grandma and I go here often. Great food and friendly staff. I would recommend going here, especially since they changed locations!

Good local Mexican food with a bar. Chips with salsa and a creamy ranchy dip served with drinks. Our waiter was very patient as we chatted prior to ordering. They have an extensive menu. They do add a service fee if you pay with credit card.
