El Santo - Sacramento

Food was poor quality for sure. Service took a long time even though there was only a handful of tables. Flies all over the salad bar area. For the price it was definitely not a good experience.

Was very disappointed. Left feeling that I was oversold on an experience that even in the best of times would not happen. The restaurant's online menu is not accurate. Diners are only offered the full Monty and cannot select from smaller a la minute options. Meat was ok but for the price, I could get better quality at Safeway and cook it myself. The staff was overwhelmed and seemed distracted. There was a major issue with our bill (they gave us someone else's check). We couldn't get drinks ordered unless we went to the bar. There were long periods between meat service and the side bar was barely restocked with goodies. It was dirty and dark. It literally felt like a business in transition. The staff was very friendly and if this place survives Covid, I might try them again but at this point in time, I cannot recommend the restaurant. They have some work to do to get it right.

Great service and food, although salad bar could be better :

The sides were old and dried, rice wasn’t cooked all the way, salads were empty but service was great! So, I will be going back.

I went first because they advertised a Brazilian steakhouse dining menu, but when I arrived there they had completely got rid of the part of the restaurant that only offers Mexican cuisine. I went specifically for the Brazilian steak house and when my wife and I showed up, it was a break.
