Try one of these tips to improve your results:
  • Ensure your search term was spelled correctly.
  • Use a filter, search by neighborhood or drag and zoom the map to check a different part of town.
  • Make your search less specific (e.g. Chinese instead of Kung Pao chicken).
  • Are we missing a venue or event? Add it and let us know what you think.
  • There is always that one friend who insists they know the best Mexican food. They are the connoisseur, and even though they have the same skin tone as Paul Rueben, they know where the “gringo food” is and scoffs at anyone who dines at such unauthentic establishments. The fact of the matter is, good Mexican is good Mexican, plain and simple, no matter if there are American twists on it or not. That’s like saying a sprinkling of a little chili powder onto a steak is making it all vato and therefore rending it less credible on the dinner table. In our book, the more spin you put on an age old recipe the better. El Lucerito is no exception. With 39 years of experience, all homemade ingredients, and bar overflowing with margaritas, it is possible for even the staunchest traditionalist not to be impressed. Bring your friend, stick a homemade tamale in front of them and tell them to keep quiet.

    What exactly is 'eh?'

    Eh. I don’t feel strongly about it either way. I don’t hate it or love it, I wouldn’t recommend it or dismiss it, it just is.
