Overall El Luchador was good. We had a reservation for 3 for 4pm, (arrived at @3:50pm, probably during a shift change?) but were seated promptly. It did take probably 10 minutes for anyone to take our drink order though. We ordered Chicken Fajitas, Birria Torta, El Pastor Taco plate, and the Homemade Guacamole as a starter. The Guac was ok, had more citrus and veggies than I am accustomed to, and wasn't very much of a serving for $9.99, all 3 of us barely had 3 chips 1/4-full before the cup was empty. The Chicken Fajitas were ok, the chicken was pretty dry and kind of chewy. They do serve a huge portion of chicken and vegetables, and it was enough to bring home some for another 2-3 tacos the next day. The Birria Torta was giagantic, juicy and flavorful, and came with fries on the side. The El Pastor Tacos were almost big enough to hold with two hands and super flavorful, and came with refried beans (a bit dry) and a very unmemorable, mexican rice. I would rate this experience, Good. It was an excellent value for the money. Food portions were large, and tasty. The inside was also very clean and looked well serviced. We also thought that with a name like "El Luchador" there would be more Luchador wretling influence besides just a wall of painted masks. Maybe include some memorabilia on the walls or some luchadorian wrestler themed menu items? We will definately be back and also recommend to friends.

The booth was cramped for 4 people. Our booth was close to the kitchen. It was too warm and too loud. Other parts of the restaurant were nice and cool. Food was good for the price. Bar has lots of potential. Happy hour pricing at the bar all day every day. Will go that route next time. All staff were great!

This place is underrated! But I understand that everyone’s experiences can be totally different depending on the day. As soon as we walked in, we were pleasantly surprised by the vibe (especially since we knew what it looked like when Sweet Tomatoes owned the space). There’s a lot of seating, it‘s spacious, and the decor was well chosen. They have an open kitchen, which I love. There’s a long bar and an outside patio. We were immediately greeted by the hostess who was friendly and welcoming. Our server was even friendlier and very professional. The menu has a lot of yummy sounding options, which means we’ll definitely be back to try other stuff. We got the house made guac, house infused mango habanero margarita, a beer on draft, birrio burrito, and steak/shrimp fajitas. Everything was freshly made and delicious. Even our kids chicken tenders were made in-house. The service was quick, attentive, and warm. We already told our friends about this place! We’ll definitely be back soon.

The music was very loud. The manager did reduce the volume but it was difficult to have a normal conversation

It was very, very cold in the restaurant. The green chili burrito was very salty. The El Lunchador margarita was not good. The service was great and the Flan was awesome.
