Haven’t been here for a while so was looking forward to a nice meal with our grandchildren as a treat for their birthdays. We were the only ones in for at least an hour. We’d looked at the menu online: 2 meals for £25 plus 2 drinks. We ordered chicken & prawn fajitas, sorry no prawns, a steak, sorry no steak, chicken Maryland & the blackened salmon. Not very good at all , we used to love the food at El Gringos, sadly this was our last visit.

Had a takeaway. 2nd rubbish one from here so will not order again. 1 hour late, that was an issue with kids. Chips not cooked, Nacho's welded to tin foil tray with congealed cheese. Veg enchiladas a soggy mess, inedible.

Absolutely terrible. Went friday evening, we was the only ones there. No mash, no coleslaw. Order was taken wrong. My friend had to wait while we ate for his to cook. I took one mouthful of rice and reslised it was micro rice! This was confirmed by the waiter. Food bland. Asked to speak with the manager but he wouldn't come out of the kitchen, too busy with takeaway orders. Left the young staff to deal with our complaint. Do yourself a favour and dont waste your money on this place.

August 29 for my birthday. 6 adults, one 10 year old. The restaurant had only two people and a child when we went in , so we sat down. We were there over 2 hours ,waitress was nice but we waited ages to order the starters, then they were ages before we got them, the mains came. Most of the mains were cold wrong items on the meal, also one meal was asked to remove items from the plate because they don't like them, but they came with all on the meal, plus a item was ordered but never came , this was not on the bill but it was still ordered but not received, overall very disappointed with the food .

Sat in the dark, had to ask for a drink 20 minutes after we was there, had our starters an hour and half after drinks then was told their was not enough chicken for both meals, left paying for what we had. Will never return, its not the same anymore

Do not even contemplate going. Took over an hour for food to arrive, after waiting 15min to be served. It was practically empty and looked like it was about to close down! Grubby & dim feeling. No atmosphere just terrible. I got my food which was Luke warm and chicken was brown? Just didn’t touch it. Rubbish service and wish we’d had just left and gone elsewhere to be honest! Could kick myself for not.

Extremely rude chef!! Staff was nice but looked like they didn't know what to do and how to run the tables smoothly. We waited nearly an hour for starter (1 for the whole table!) and another 30-40 minutes after that for mains. Part of the order was missed for one person and when we asked waiting staff, the chef shouted so we and all restaurant could hear 'what's his problem?!' We left paying only for what we had. It looked like they were much more focused on take away orders than the customers they had in the restaurant. Massive shame, because food that we had was lovely, but will never go back because of chef's attitude.

Looking for an exceptional Mexican dining experience? Look no further than El Gringos in Yeadon. This restaurant is an absolute must-visit. Came to see the play in town and had late dinner there.... Fantastic place worth coming from Leeds just for that restaurant! The food is authentic and bursting with flavors that transport you straight to Mexico. But what truly sets El Gringos apart is the phenomenal prices and fantastic service. Trust me, a meal at El Gringos is an experience worth savoring.

Having been a few time, we were looking forward to tonight however the food was bland, half the amount of potato skins on the plate compared to the menu description. The place looks run down, dim lighting and just kids serving, no management. Do not go here, waste of money.

Visited on a Saturday evening. Quite a few people in but not overly busy. We found the service very slow. Arrived at 8pm but didn’t get the main food course until 9.20pm. Food was ok but nothing special. There was a large group of people at the other end of the restaurant who were loud and complaining about most of the food. We found that this table got most of staffs attention , we never got asked if we wanted more drinks etc and didn’t get asked if our food was ok.

The staff are so friendly and welcoming. My teenagers and husband got a belly buster platter with burgers , ribs ,chicken , chips and veg on it. They were so impressed it was all cooked perfectly. I am vegetarian and got a veggie chimichanga which was lovely. It is such good value for money and I can't believe it wasn't busier . I have paid twice as much in the past for food nowhere near this good.

The food was great, but the staff seemed to struggle with the basics. We had a 1 hour 10-minute gap between our starters and mains. We ordered a round of drinks and randomly 1 pint arrived out of 5 drinks and after I asked a second pint arrived and a rum and the other 2 drink never arrived. I believe our table wasn't the only people who was complaining The main issue is this restaurant was too busy serving takeaway orders that the customer in the restaurant just didn't get properly looked after. When our food finally arrive none of us was really bothered it got ate but we was passed it a bit. I get it stuff happens, but better communication. Oh well nevermind.

It used to be so good but has gone downhill recently. After the last takeaway we got was cold, like it had been sat in the car for an hour, I thought I'd try collection. Of 3 meals ordered, 2 were wrong. A vegan quesadilla with cheese and sour cream and chicken and mash with no mash. When we phoned about it we were told a manager would call back but if course they didn't. We'll give it a miss from now on.

Always loved this place and i cant fault the waiters and waitresses and they do the best cocktails. However, we ordered food to be delivered, food wasnt hot i'd say luke warm. My daughter had eaten half her chicken burger then noticed it was pink inside, she showed me and i told her not to eat anymore. I had messaged them twice, first message they have seen with no reply and the second message they are clearly ignoring! They either need new msnagemeng or a chef who knows how to cook! picture of burger in comments 🤮🤮

This place is really basic. Food is slopped onto a plate with little thought to any presentation. We had two different main dishes but they both looked identical when they arrived. The waiters are 15 years old and really not sure about anything really.

Two stars for the excellent friendly service from the young lady that served us. I personally did not like the food. The fajitas were bland. More like chicken in gravy. Just bland. You got 5 or 6 fajitas but a minuscule set of sides that were gone in one, possibly two rolls. I asked for more and was given them with no problems. Don't think I will be in a hurry to return.

A bit loud (maybe I'm getting old). But the food was tasty and the service very friendly. I rarely use cash any more, so couldn't leave a cash tip.

Ive bough a few takeaways from here on special occasions and I’ve always really loved it. So for my birthday i wanted to go and have it at the actual restaurant. I was so surprised to see how quiet it was. The service was amazing i don’t know what other reviews are about. Our starter took 30 mins but I prefer this as it gives me time to talk and spend time with my family. 20 mins after the starter we got our mains and it was the best chicken ive ever eaten. The portions are big aswell and i couldn’t finish it. They also let me keep one of their sombreros since it was my birthday which was so sweet of them. They definitely deserve more customers! I will be going as much as i can. Definitely the best birthday meal ive ever had. Thankyou.

We ordered our food at 8pm on a Saturday night, we asked how long for delivery told 50mins to an hour, not the best but having been hear before and having a taste for Burrito we were happy to wait. After 1 hr 10 mins I called and got told it was being bagged up and would be with us in the next 10 mins. I called a further 20 mins later and was told it was with the delivery driver, it took a further 15 minutes for it to turn up. At this point it was 9:45pm and we were over it. The food was obviously cold and did not meet the usual standard. It was tasty but it was like eating next day food.

We have had Just Eat delivery from El Gringos a few times over the last 2 months and it has been a delicious meal every time. My wife has a gluten allergy and they are very careful and have some good options for her. The portions are very large, consistently prepared, and a substantial menu to boot. We are very glad to have discovered this restaurant! We have had the Burritos, enchiladas, chimichangas, Monterey chicken, and the Cajun chicken. All were excellent. The chimichangas are deep fried burritos essentially so calorie beware! 🤤 Highly recommended.

I had the best burger I have ever eaten that I hadn’t made myself from El Gringos. The burger was perfectly seasoned, tender and juicy. The food was delicious and still piping hot when it arrived. The portions are incredibly generous and excellent value for money. I ordered a child’s burger meal and still couldn’t eat it all and I am a good eater. Coleslaw, fries and onion rings were also delicious and the cheesecake is amazing. I’m delighted to have this restaurant available to us and you can order directly with them so they can keep all the revenue from your order.

Best birria tacos in Leeds!! Staff are always so friendly, music is a vibe and food is 10/10 and fairly priced. We waited a little longer for our tacos (we were having drinks so didn’t mind) and they gave us a tequila shot each for the wait!! Highly recommend <3

Good steady Mexican food. Feel as though portion sizes have got smaller vs previous times, but that was a while ago (hasn't everything). Service could have been warmer and friendly. Not rude but no small talk or being made to feel particularly welcome. Music was blaring so not easy to chat but that is maybe me getting old... Glad the restaurant is still doing well. Been in Chapel A a long time. Can and probably should improve though.

Went for a friends birthday on Saturday evening. Table was booked for 7:30 and we was not seated until 8:20. Our food was served at different times, 2 of us ate about 30/40 minutes after everyone else had finished food and one meal was forgotten about and cooked last minute afterwards. The food was not great either. It’s understandable the staff were understaffed and extremely busy but there was no accountability or explanation for the poor service. When the bill came we questioned this, and they knocked four beers on the bill (there was 8 of us).
