El Portal #1 - Hartselle

This is the best Mexican restaurant in Hartselle. Try it, you won't regret it!

If you eat at the restaurant it's good.if you get it to go,there's no telling what you'll get.i ordered a taco salad and got it home and I couldn't believe what I saw when I opened the Styrofoam to go plate it was in.about a quarter inch of water in the bottom.i guess they had washed the lettuce and it was still soaking wet.it had lettuce, chicken and sour cream.pitiful!! I used to love this place.but they've got sloppy.lost my business!!

This is our local go-to for Mexican food. Great service and food is always good. Thanks Jose Fransico for your kindness and perfect service! Food was hot and tasty and beer was cold!

I'm from Arizona visiting family in Falkville. I was intrigued to see what southern style Mexican food had to offer.... this place is not southern at all. It is AUTHENTIC Mexican food and delicious! The restaurant is clean, atmosphere is welcoming and the food came out quickly. The staff were incredibly friendly. I highly recommend this place.

Great experience. Great staff. Good food. Local ownership. You can tell they care!
