My travels landed me in Elkhart and I wanted to see the Mexican restaurant scene in the area and I was highly impressed with this business. I first want to say, the waitress Itzel and the whole staff was extremely friendly environment. The for the food it was delicious, I had had a chicken burrito with rice and beans. I recommend this restaurant if you want true Mexican dishes; the food taste just as I remember when I traveled to Mexico!!

This was my first time trying their food because I was bored and thought it sounded good. When we got in the building we were immediately welcomed and sat. As well as chips and salsa almost immediately. Then I heard some music on and then we realized it was karaoke night. And the food was so good. I had the Enchiladas queso blanco and the steak street tacos. They were both really really good. Overall I cannot wait for my next time I can go here.

**update** Have been here a few times recently and i swear the order food to table time has been no more than 5 minutes! Great and friendly service!! Good atmosphere, friendly staff, and good food. My "go-to" plate: steak fajitas!!! The tacos are also great, i prefer the pork! Only place i k kw of that only the 1st bowl of table chips are free...the rest you get charged for.

Had to choose between all the restaurants in the area on our road trip home, and I am so glad we decided on El Camino Real. The service and food were amazing. We received a very warm welcome and friendly service from the moment we walked in. The food was even more impressive — absolutely delicious, fresh, and full of authentic Mexican dishes and flavor. El bistec tampiqueno y las enchiladas increible. Por fin buena comida mexicana. I can tell they put real care into every dish. Definitely a memorable stop, and we’ll be coming back whenever we’re in the area!

Great menu, food, & service. Our server was great! She was friendly and we had fun learning a bit of Spanish. The atmosphere was comfortable and quiet, compared to other places that are so loud you can't hold a conversation with the people at your table. Mas Contente'
