Reviews for El Saltillo Mexican Restaurant in Ocean Springs, MS

Never had a bad experience here. AMAZING MEXICAN FOOD at a really affordable price, unless you're my friend and I. LOL. So... excited for the Pascagoula opening so I don't have to drive as far. The food is great, the staff is always friendly, and here'swhere my friend and I ruin it's affordability; Margaritas. SADLY this location only had one glass for the 60oz Margarita. BUTlast trip we learned we could get a pitcher. OH BOY, he's a terrible influence on me. BEFORE moving down to MS, rarely drank,like less than once a year. After moving, do a lot of it. By the way, I ordered the 60oz and he ordered the pitcher. I finishedthe 60oz without issue and then we killed the half gallon pitcher of it. (which is only 64oz). The waiter was great, when hebrought out the giant margarita, the novelty sized one and saw it was for a short man, had that thing downed in like 10minutes. ALCOHOLISM aside, their margaritas are great and so is their food. HIGHLY HIGHLY RECOMMEND THEM. Also, SUPERCONSISTENT QUALITY between locations. Which there's like 5 of them and I think I've been to 3 of them. And I learned you canorder margaritas by the pitcherful. NEAT!!! Read more

Excellent Mexican food. Very low priced for the scenery and service. Waiter was very good and knowledgeable of the menu. This is... one of our favorites in the Biloxi/Ocean Springs area! Read more

Have eaten here approximately 20 years. Lunches, dinner's, anniversaries, graduations, family gatherings, a friend or two...... sometimes alone. Enjoyed well prepared food...good tea but the straws are ALWAYS too short. Barely stick above tea level. Gooddesserts. (Note the restroom could be cleaner... hand soap would be nice) BUT LAST & FINAL VISIT there a misunderstandingbetween the (nice) waiter & myself which they handled completely wrong caused an unfortunate scene. I sat not touching anything& asked for what I had pointed to. The gentleman did not speak or understand English very well. I AM NOT PREJUDICE by anymeasure & my very large family is multiracial. The manager comes to the table & tells me I ordered 16. Again I explain I POINTEDto my selection. 16, 15,, 82,or 9....pointed with my finger! He kept insisting I received the right meal. He got louder &louder EVEN TELLING my guest (I always pay the bill too & tip well... I've done this work too in my earlier life). My guest juststared at him in disbelief. I was so UNNECESSARILY embarrassed & insulted over a simple dinner misunderstanding. Irarely....only 2 times in my life... have 'asked' , not complained, about a meal. I didn't want a free meal. I asked for thecorrect one which even cost more in a respectable manner as my mother taught me. I sat as my guest ate. My dinner sat untouched.I paid the ENTIRE BILL in a respectful manner & thanked the cashier. I tipped the waiter we had. They didn't offer to replacethe dinner nor deduct the cost of it. This simply shows the character of the manager. I simply will not go again. Read more

Food is always delicious, service is always fantastic, everyone there has always been super nice. Our favorite place to eat out.

Ohmygoodness! So delicious as always!! They are never stingy on the steak for the steak nachos and the quesidillas! And their... shrimp tacos are amazing as well! And very reasonably priced, with great service! Read more

Food was mediocre at best. Nothing was piping hot (closer to barely warm). And there was hardly any lettuce in the taco salad.... Service was terrible. We were rather amused that the cheese dip arrived before the chips! I think next time we will just goacross the parking lot to Taco Bell. Read more

I?ve been to both restaurants? this one and the one in Biloxi. Ordinarily, when a restaurant had completely inattentive staff,... there is just no way I?d give them four stars. Likewise, the cleanliness is a little marginal as well. BUT THE FOOD ISRIDICULOUS. So I cannot go below a four star review. I just can?t. Because the 24-oz Margarita (be it mango or traditional) isjust amazing. I had the Zacatecano Shrimp and they were stunning, while my partner had the carnitas burrito and he loved everybite. The food is first so good, it makes you forget about the fact that you had to wipe off your seat or your server wasmissing for huge chunks of time. Read more

Staple of ocean springs Mexican food. They've been here for over 20 years for a reason. Consistently good food that's... affordable, and served by folks who know what they're doing. I've had literally every item on the menu, and every single oneof them is good. I recommend the steak fajitas, California burrito, and Carne Asada for the meat eaters, and they have greatsalads for the non meat eaters. The chicken dishes are very flavorful as well. Believe it or not the burgers here are amazing,so if you're here with a big party and don't like Mexican food, get the burger! It's really really good. If you're a drinker, they have the typical margaritas, both frozen and in the rocks. Read more
