El Matador Authentic restaurant

Food was
"Awesomely awesome at its awesomeness."
Ordered a wet burrito and got a babii in an incubator.
Wasn't expecting the burrito to be oh so massive!
Horchata was gr8.
Got 3 refills & one to go.(Maybe I was thirsty thirsty? Idk.)
But overall the experience, the food and the atmosphere were enjoyable.
As a trucker and tourist, I definitely recommend eating here and returning.

The Chile Relleno, tamale, Rice and beans plate was excellent.
Their chips and salsa are delicious and the service was excellent.
Their menu has many options to choose from and the prices are reasonable.

The best menudo in town. Friendly service that is very tentative to your needs. Great menu selection. Their green sauce wet burrito is phenomenal its so good.

Highly recommend this place, always letting my coworkers know this is the place to get some good food, my go to is a wet burrito with red enchilada sauce, the staff are really friendly and on top of everything. Been coming here for a couple years now.

We absolutely LOVED this place. Cute little whole in the wall authentic Mexican food. Not your average place. Absolutely delicious. Everything we are was exceptional. The wait staff were very welcoming and friendly. Small interior but it made it very cozy feeling. We ordered carne asada burrito, sangria, cheese enchilada and pork tamale. Loved every bite! Very filling. Priced well. 5 stars. We're going back here for sure.

This was my first time coming to this place and it definitely didn't disappoint. I found myself with a terrible cold and googled "Caldo de Pollo" and after reading other reviews and looking at photos from other reviewers I decided to give them a shot. I headed there during my lunch hour after I called in my order ahead. The place is small but clean and it wasn't too crowded. I can only speak for what I ate, the side of rice that comes with the soup is flavorful and well seasoned. The tortilla chips were warm and tasted like if they had just been made. The caldo de pollo "chicken and vegetable soup" was very well balanced, the chicken tasted fresh, the vegetables were fresh and cut in large pieces to scoop onto your spoon, it was as if my parents made me soup at home. I highly recommend this restaurant and immediately came into the office and told everyone about it. Needless to say, the caldo de pollo instantly made me feel better!

Great small place with very friendly staff and great food. There are lots of Mexican food restaurants around but I would go out of my way to come back here

Taco Tuesday was a hit. First time there. Great tasting tacos. Friendly warm greeting. Will be back.

Everything here was amazing. The service was the best. The guy who helped us made the experience so much fun!

I recommend it. if you really want mexican food, this is the place

Terrific chili verde and huevos. Tortillas were excellent. Family vibe to the restaurant and service was both efficient and friendly. Overall, I'd definitely go again.

Delicious. Tried the Chile relleno and cheese enchiladas; my bestie tried the shrimp cocktail and wet burrito. 10/10 appetizer salsa creeps up on you if you keep going. Junior is the best. Thanks for the amazing dinner.

Love the food cuz everything is made fresh. They will make anything that you want

I cannot recommend this place enough. The food is great and you get what you pay for. Three tacos are plenty filling for me here. If you are in the irwindale area and want delicious food, do yourself a huge favor and stop by here. You will not be disappointed. Great service, delicious food, and speedy

Food was delicious and all the waiters are so friendly. The place is small and it was packed but I still had a good time. Cozy vibes.

Chile Relleno burrito and chicken mole enchiladas are delicious!

Great Food, not Grease, Always Fresh, Best Customer Service Ever and The Best Menudo in Irwindale Ca . They Close Early and may it outside as well. You can call for Take out as well. The Menudo Sales out Fast on the Weekend.

Boy, what an awesome Mexican restaurant! The chili relleno was excellent, the service was great, if you are near Irwindale over by SCE main office, go there and check it out yourself. Nice people, authentic Mexican, highly recommended!

Small but everything is delicious. Lots of options in beers. When ordering the Michelada, you pick from their icy cold selection. Delicious
