The food here is amazing! It is my boyfriend and I’s go to for Mexican in Sanford. Everything from the chips and salsa to the burritos and don’t forget the margaritas! My favorite is the Sanford burrito and my boyfriend’s is the Cali or pulled pork burritos. The restaurant is a bit out dated and worn looking and the staff can sometimes be a hit or miss, but overall it’s well worth it!

We had takeaway from El Mexicano last night. After a long day we needed some comfort food and having just moved to the area were pleased to find a place that serves good authentic fare. The food took a little bit to come out (we ordered a lot), but it was obvious they do a lot of takeaway and DoorDash orders so we didn't mind at all. The flavor, quality, and friendly service made up for any wait time. My husband tried the burrito with tomatillo verdes sauce and I had the taco platter (frijole and hongo). Just curious to see what their vegetarian tacos were like, I was excited to try both. I really enjoyed them, especially the mushroom (hongo). So much flavor packed into each bite! Thankfully my husband let me try some of his burrito so I could have a taste of that too. It was also very flavorful (he opted for chicken tinga). We also tried the coconut shrimp (reminded me of Cocos in Biddeford, one of my favorite places), the catina salad, and the fried ice cream (which kind of tasted like a churro on the outside). Across the board we were very satisfied with our meals and look forward to coming back in person to eat. I know I'll definitely be getting the hongo taco and coconut shrimp again - that pineapple sauce is Service: Takeaway Meal type: Dinner Price per person: $10–20 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 4 Recommended dishes: Salsa and Chips, Guacamole, Tortilla Chips, Fried Ice Cream Recommendation for vegetarians: Highly recommend Parking space: Plenty of parking Parking options: Free of charge parking lot
