Reviews for El Molino Mexican Restaurant in Lebanon, TN

Food is okay. More like a fast food type of Mexican restaurant but the service and atmosphere are great. I've never felt out of... place anytime I've visited and the employees are always super pleasant and accommodating. Read more

So glad we stopped in. You are immediately sincerely greeted and your waiter is direct and personable. We had the pork pastor... tacos and carne asada and both were very moist tasty and plentiful. Well worth a visit. Read more

The is one of my favorite. I have never had a bad experience their guacamole is amazing. The food is always great! We always end... up with the same waiter and I always joke and ask if he ever has a day off. But he is the best so it's always great seeing himthere. Read more

It's an amazing restaurant. Great food. Never a bad experience here. Last time I was there I had the hardest working server.... Literally! Never seen a waiter work that hard and make it look that easy. Also want to say to everyone who reads this: If you Go out to a restaurant and get good service Then show your gratitude and tip And don't just short change I'm getting a good tipif you can afford it. I always did no matter what but i always tip with it better for good service. Read more

I have always enjoyed this restaurant, and their food and service is always good, but for the past few months they have started... charging a credit card fee if you pay with card. Also if you purchase alcohol they charge an alcohol service fee which wasaround $1.50. This is ludicrous and I have never been charged these "hidden fees" by any restaurant. Prices went up likeeverywhere else, but now they're adding fees they don't disclose beforehand. It's just a shady practice and it makes me want toavoid eating here in the future. Read more

El Molinos Sampler was great!! The server Gabriel was great as always!! One of my favorite places to eat always!

I used to enjoy coming here but my experience tonight was bad. I came to treat myself to my favorite meal and regret coming here... at all. The chips tasted like they were fried in bad oil. Beggars came in and verbally discussed which tables would be good tobeg for money. I don?t know if staff kicked the beggars out or not, but they proceeded to beg in the parking lot after. Staffsat a crying baby behind me that cried the entire time. Other table?s foods were served before my simple meal even though Iordered first. I decided to forgive the things that took away from a quiet dinner until the very end. My server dropped checksoff to two tables. I asked if I pay at the front and he insisted that he take my card himself. The other table proceeded tocheck out at the front while I waited for my server. Eventually, he came back empty handed. He left my card unattended somewherein the restaurant. I did get my card back, but I advise bringing cash. Overall, I regret not going the the Mexican restaurantacross the street tonight. While the poor quality of guests/beggars isn?t the fault of the restaurant, I included theinformation for readers to be aware of the kind of people hang around the area. Stay alert everywhere. Beggars and loud babiesare not factored into the rating. The irresponsible care of my card and bad food is what earned 1 star. Read more

Service was good, very friendly and attentive. Like the atmosphere and the music. Very clean and pleasant. Down side, my tamales... were piping hot on the inside but lukewarm on the outside which means they were microwaved. Also, the sign of a good Mexicanrestaurant is how it smells when you walk in. If you can't smell the food when you walk in, that's never a good sign. I didn'tsmell anything when I walked in. I was just passing through Lebanon on my way home. Probably won't be back since I don't conethis way often. Stop microwaving tamales and I'd give you 5 stars. Read more
