Reviews For El Chingon Mexican Grill

The food was absolutely delicious. Being a native of Arizona, recently moved to Bonifay, I haven't had a real southwest Mexican food experience in over 4 years. This place brought back tasteful memories of home and the prices are outstandingly low, which also reminds me of the Mexican food back west. Overall this place is fantastic. My family and I will definitely make this a regular place to dine.

The food was great. The burrito was filled with steak cooked perfectly. The service was topnotch. We went through 6 salsa dishes because best salsa I have had. Margaritas are delicious.

My husband and I generally eat at Cancuns once a weekend but today it was packed! We have driven past ur restaurant due to it looking a bit run down and by a flee market it just didn’t appeal to us and we kinda just stick to what we know... today however we just wanted to eat and not wait two hours so we gave your restaurant a chance! My husband and I were tasting the food and deciding if it was better or worse then other Mexican spots we been to. Salsa was amazing had lots of flavor and not super spicy cheese came in a huge dish (bigger then most other places as when we were done w our food we still had 1/3 left in the bowl! Which never happens) and was super good hot all the way through the chips were thin and warm and not super salty then the prices were pretty good! I got the ribeye with rice and beans and my husband got I can’t remember. The name but it had pork chop steak chicken a huge hunk of cheese cacti shrimp and more it was so good for both my husband and I to go out it was only 60 and we paid a 20 tip so way less then most places we have been in this economy! Great place sad we didn’t stop sooner great people great atmosphere great food great price will be back asap:)

Started with complimentary WARM thin tortilla chips - perfection with the tasty salsa. Dad is PICKY and raved over his chicken Chimichanga lunch special. I had the Pollo Feliz and can't believe the value. EXCELLENT EXCELLENT EXCELLENT for middle of nowhere Florida Mexican! Very unexpected and we will be back on our way through!

I literally just left this place. I had to leave a review. The man who sat us (seemed like the manager), was not welcoming. My husband said hola and he just starred at us. I said “hi” then he replied hi and we followed him to a table. When we left, he was at the check in counter and we said “thank you, bye” and he completely ignored us. The food was delivered quickly however, I had to return the tacos because they were cold. They tasted deliciously when they were hot. The young servers were nice and caring. I would go back for the food but not for the manager’s attention.

My wife and I found this place on Google while RVing in Bonifay. We were looking for a place to eat lunch. We ordered the sampler appetizer to share. It came with a white cheese sauce and a savory sauce. The savory sauce was my favorite. I put it on everything. It also came with guacamole, lettuce, tomatoes, and sour cream. We're not big eaters, but it hit the spot. Service is fast and friendly. Prices are very competitive, . We'll definitely go back before returning home.

Outstanding service and the food was top notch. Carnitas were flavorful and tender. Don't let the outside fool you. This is a must stop for locals and travelers. Will definitely dine here again and again.
