El Puerto

Adding to the competition for best Mexican restaurant in Charlottesville is El Puerto, located on the north side of Emmet Road opposite Kroger and the Barracks Road Shopping Center. While they do serve the traditional Mexican fare, this cozy restaurant stakes its claim in value – they have tons of both lunch and dinner specials for under 10 bucks. They offer a comprehensive dinner for two for under 20 dollars, and their drink specials are amazing – including the Jumbo Texas Margarita, with a hint of orange. El Puerto’s menu is one to be explored and revisited, so go see them today!
