    Exceptional food! We had the Sikil Pak and the amberjack fish to start, followed by lamb empanada, half the rack of lamb (2 pieces) and the pork. Everything tasted so different and was super flavourful. Service 10/10 friendly, attentive, this restaurant is worthy of its Michelins!

    El Pocho is one of our absolute favourite places in the city and it never disappoints. We had never had the fixed menu before because we usually come with a smaller group but it was just as amazing as always! The food was paced well, there was a lot of it for the price, and we were pleasantly full at the end of the meal. Would 10/10 recommend this place to anyone (and we always do, because we love it dearly).

    This was an exceptionally wonderful experience considering the circumstances of a late reservation on my part. When I finally arrived an hour later (granted my guest had arrived on time), the staff was so generous in attending to me immediately. As well, we ended up leaving after 8 pm & were gracious enough to help charge my phone while we were dining! Appreciate the hospitality and loved the food/sevice & atmosphere! 5 stars 🌟!!!
