El Mexico Lindo translates to “The Beautiful Mexico.” Angela and her husband, Sergio – with more than 30 years in the restaurant industry – kicked off the venture together on November 11, 2013.
Their menu is flexible—you can order lunch any time of day, and they also have a light eater’s menu.
Everything here is handmade, from their salsa and tamales to chili rellenos and cheese dip. Yes, you can even buy the delicious salsa to take home with you… and you’ll want to! What sets their food apart is that everything down to the fajita seasoning is made by Sergio.
They offer pickup, takeout, and dine-in options. The family-run restaurant is clean and cozy, and a family-oriented establishment. “We pride ourselves on knowing our customers by name and providing quick service—usually within 30 seconds,” Angie said.
They strive to offer the best food in town at reasonable prices. Their signature dish is the Ranchero Special—fajita meat over rice with cheese dip on top. It’s become their most popular item.
“I run my restaurant differently than most; it’s not like a franchise,” Angela explained. “I employ many students and prioritize their education and extracurricular activities. The children’s menu is essentially the same as the light eater’s menu, with smaller portions,” she added.
“We have a loyal local customer base; some visit daily, sometimes more than once a day. People traveling through often make it a point to stop by whenever they pass through town. This kind of loyalty makes us feel appreciated and valued.” She added that they enjoy serving and giving back to the local community through various sponsorships and fundraisers.
