The food was great! They start you off with the table salsa and chips, and the flavor of the salsa is fresh and appealing. The food was delicious and hot from the kitchen. The staff were very attentive and pleasant!

My first time coming to this location. I have been to the Branson, West location. I loved the food, the staff and the inviting atmosphere.

Worst enchiladas I have ever had in my entire life. Terrible. And the chili relleno was so bad I couldn't get it out of my mouth fast enough. 😩
btw, no soap in the bathroom, so have to question cleanliness.

Came here for the second time, since the place opened and have to only give it a two star review. Each time I returned, it seems to go downhill. Food portions are small on a three item combo your beans and rice count as one of the items. Purchased the fajitas again as well. This time it was primarily green bell peppers and onions with lack of Christmas very mushy and overcooked.
When asking for no rice, the server could not understand. If you are visiting Branson, I do not recommend this I recommend you would go to a different restaurant.

Great restaurant. Generous portions. Light, crispy chips. It's my favorite place to be on Tuesdays! Taco Tuesday include hard or soft, beef or chicken with plenty of meat and cheese

Fajitas
Ever since moving to the area, we've been searching for the best Mexican food restaurant. We've got our favorites, and they will continue to be in rotation, but El Lago is really tops. They bring you complimentary chips and salsa, of course; the chips are beautifully thin and delicate and the salsa was so good, I ordered a container to take home with me! My husband ordered the Chimichanga Fajita (cheese sauce on the side - I never heard of cheese sauce on a Chimichanga until moving to the Midwest) and ordered the Nachos Fajita. I have never had a better plate of nachos. Both were so flavorful, I wish my camera could capture it. We will be coming back!

Come here for tasty Mexican meals! We had been to the original El Lago in Branson West which is incredible, and this new location in Branson, just off of Hwy 65, is equally good. Friendly service, and we were seated quickly. Extensive menu of items, and if you can visit for a later lunch (1:30 or 2?) you can avoid more crowds. Our drinks and food arrived quickly too, and at good temperatures.
Enjoyed salsa of varying degrees of heat (had to ask for anything above mild) with freshly made chips (although a lot of small fragments of chips in basket). Beans and rice were warm, comforting and delicious. Adequate portions of beef in tacos with lettuce, tomato, onion, shredded cheese and delicious, fresh guacamole. Chile Relleno also highly recommended.
Can't wait to eat here again! Affordable, delicious food at a convenient location away from busy Branson strip.

Variety of Salsas Are Available Upon Request
This was my 1st time visiting here to eat. The chips and salsa are great! I got 2 soft tacos and a bed of rice. It was warm and decent taste. I would have liked to have had a larger tortilla with the soft tacos. The restaurant was huge! Plenty of space!
