El Mezcal Mexican Grill

This place is a fantastic, hole in the wall spot! The service was very fast, even for a Friday night and fully packed. I got the vegetable fajitas and my partner got Chile rellenos. Amazing food, great portions. We will definitely be back when we are in Cullman.

A friend wanted mexican food, and I had been wanting to try this place for about a year. So the stars aligned, and so El Mezcal was the destination. Colorful upbeat kinda vibe and friendly staff. I ordered my measuring stick combo plate of cheese enchilada and a beef taco combo. The combo plate was about what you would expect. Good and tasty. If you want basic Mexican restaurant style Mexican, you won't be disappointed. But I also ordered a street style chicken taco. And the game changed. Very good! I will return and delve a little deeper into the menu and leave an update. In summation, give this place a go if ya got a hankerin for some restaurant/Tex Mex food.

Asked for a medium steak. Asked the waitress if could fix the issue and brought me back the same well done steak. Since I told the waitress I didn’t want it at that point the cook came out saying I was the one who was burnt and no clue about steaks. Also the steaks have way to much slat.

The food was great, but the service was not. Did not get our cheese dip till after our meal. Did not get a refill of our waters. The server was more worried about serving her family than taking care of the customers. We asked 3 times for a server, and even walked to the bar to ask for our server and was told to hang on so they could make there families drinks from the bar. We waited even longer and had to go to the manager to ask for a box and our ticket.

Love the food. Service was beyond great. Didn't have to wait to be seated. Food was hot and fresh. Chips was very warm. Didn't wait long to get our food. The place was very clean.
