El Camino Incorporated - Abbeville

This restaurant is not known for its Mexican cuisine. While they do serve Mexican food, it is not their specialty. The Mexican dishes are not very good, but their steak is excellent. Instead of ordering tacos, try the ribs and grilled vegetables - you won't be disappointed.

I recommend going to El Camino, but with some reservations. I have been dining at El Camino since I was a child. When I was younger, I was very picky and would only order their chips and cheese appetizer with a cherry coke. My family would go there religiously every Friday night. As I grew older, my taste buds expanded and I started to appreciate other menu items. However, since they moved to their current location, the quality of the food and the atmosphere seem to have declined. The old spot had a special charm that the new location lacks. Many of their menu items don't live up to the standards of the old days. The ground meat lacks flavor and is dry, which ruins dishes like taco salad, tostada deluxe, and burritos. The salsa also looks unappetizing. Overall, the Mexican food at El Camino is not worth the time or money, except for the chips and cheese, which are still great. If you avoid dishes with meat, the experience might not be so bad. However, their steaks are still excellent. The ribeyes are perfectly seasoned and cooked to perfection. This is usually what my family orders when we dine there. The grilled menu items are also worth trying. The service has been lacking in recent times, as I had to ask for refills. If you're looking for good Mexican food, I wouldn't recommend El Camino. But if you're in the mood for great steaks or grilled dishes, I would definitely recommend it.
