Super good food. Rice had a great taste and the nachos were good. Beans needed a little salt but perfect for those with high blood pressure. Wonderful service, ladies checked on us throughout . Nice ambiance and plenty of parking.

Food was pretty good and the service was outstanding! Prices were a little on the higher side compared to similar places but everything was definitely fresh made.

Lunch today at El Compa was delicious! The restaurant was very clean both inside as well as the patio area. The service was also great! We had the Cheese Enchilada plate, Chile Relleno Burrito and Chile Relleno plate. All were delicious, I recommend all three. Parking is available in the parking lot, prices were reasonable.

The food is always so fresh and delicious, I know the owner and his wife. Amazing couple and parents. One of the best ownership relationship in the business. The lovely wife always welcomes you, serves you, plus checks everything is running smoothly. The handsome husband is always doing the cooking as he's the chef ‍. The small establishments has seating in the outside of the patio and inside but if your a group of 8 or more they can definitely accommodate you. It does get packed easily for dinning in. Some prefer to order takeout because of the long waiting. You must be patient of others it takes time to digest great food.

Mojarra Frita was awesome, great beans and rice too, super soft and flavorful. My hubby had the carne asada plate and it was soo good. You can tell the place is authentic just from the salsa. It has that perfect kick. Great place to lunch - not much of a romantic vibe but great food!!!! Also, they have a kids menu, which I adore, rather than trying to order food that might be spicy and trying to share.
