Fast and friendly service, food tasted good, I didn’t care for the tortillas and presentation was a little sloppy so much sauce I couldn’t tell what I was eating 🤷🏽‍♀️that is just me being weird🤣 Tip: if you are fat, don’t ask for a booth🥹

Our favorite Mexican restaurant. Every time we go out of town & eat at a Mexican restaurant, we end up comparing that food and service to El Molino's. Very few come up to El Molino's standards and we travel alot. My favorite plate is the El Jacal, Combo #4, which consists of a pork tamal, a cheese chile relleno, & a chicken flauta with salad, rice and the best beans. Delicious! Also, the Margaritas are fantastic. Great place, great people, great service, great food, great Margaritas, what else could you ask for?

Do they have a gluten free menu

Yvette Butler | Oct 1, 2018

We do not have a separate gluten free menu but we prepare several items that are gluten free. Menu items that are gluten free consist of tacos with soft corn tortillas, enchiladas, (the only sauce not gluten free is the mole sauce - the other four signature sauces and two table salsas are all gluten free) or fajitas. The chicken, machaca beef and ground beef along with the refried beans are all gluten free. Our rice is made with chicken stock and although the chicken bouillon cubes we occasionally use are labeled "gluten free", they do contain a small amount of maltodextrin; which as you may know can be harmful for very severe cases of Celiac disease. In our fryer we fry both flour and corn items, making any fried food a threat of cross contamination. This would also include the complementary chips served at the table. Depending on the severity of your allergy, it would be your own judgement as to whether you should consume the rice or fried foods. We hope to see you soon.

How is their machaca?

It's ok...if I recall...prices are fair and the ambiance is decent...a couple of the chefs dishes are outstanding. I like their chicken soup...The enchiladas are hit or miss...Salsa Street in Dundee across from the Mall is the absolute best Mexican in the area!
