    They always give me top notch service, always. I have eaten at this restaurant for 20+ years and personally, I think their food is the best authentic Mexican dishes. As I said before, always great service, always friendly, and always delicioso! If you've never ate here, you are definitely missing out! Suggestion: try the chicken, cheese, and rice with shredded chicken. It's less than $10 and you'll not only enjoy it, you'll be stuffed when you're finished!

    We had been going to another Mexican restaurant in town, but the last two times we went my food was cold..both times. Decided to try El Gallero and it was fantastic. We have been here twice and both times the food, service, and atmosphere was good.

    We just happened upon this place as we were looking for a place to eat before we did some shopping. Just be aware....mixed drinks are not available. You can get a beer but margaritas are out of the question. I'm not sure why that was. I'm deducting a star because it smelled like lacquer when we walked in....like there had been some remodeling going on....Not a big deal but I was a tad dizzy with a headache for a little while. Other than that food was good and prices reasonable. For the 2 of us we spent a little over $30.

    Tonight was 1st night we have ordered from here since my grandad passed year ago. It was his favorite place we have just been busy an going to other places. This was best Mexican I have had in hole year I have been 2 others in milan, paris, and mckenzie and tonight this restaurant put all the others to shame. My daughter an I ordered to go she got steak an shrimp fajitas and I got 2 tacos. The tacos had so much flavor they was absolutely perfect even the rice which im not big on was delicious an had flavor! The salsa an cheese dip also delicious an had just enough kick to keep u coming back for more. This will be are spot for Mexican from now on because it was best we have had in so long. I mean we was both just blown away with how flavorful everything was.

    Very good food with excellent service. Not my 1st choice for Mexican in Milan but definitely quality food. Very clean and nice inside as well.

    Huge menu, good service provided by jovial people in a clean, authentic Mexican atmosphere. I had the Fiesta Dinner and everything on the entire plate was terrifically made. Even the stuffed pepper was exquisite. Perfect pop on the outside melty goodness on the inside. Beef products were mildly seasoned and a good selection of salad items was provided. Shredded chicken was tender and well spied and the rice was less spicy than most but still held a good flavor and both the soft, hard, flour and corn tortillas were steamed and served nicely.
