El Gallo Bravo: Reviews & Ratings
Was craving some caldo de camaron for the season. Ordered the michi caldo which included shrimp, fish and octopus. It was delicious. We also ordered the carne asada burrito and it was very flavorful. Definitely coming back!
Wow. I've passed by this place many times but decided to stop today instead of going to iHop, and let me tell you it was the best decision! We ordered menudo, tacos, agua de piña, and chilaquiles verdes. I was expecting mediocre Mexican food but what I got instead were dishes that reminded me of my childhood. Everything was so good, which is hard to find in a restaurant. Usually restaurants have certain dishes that are better than others, so when I was looking at other yelp reviews I noticed there wasn't one thing in particular that stood out. I can't wait to come back and try something new. Additionally, the customer service was wonderful. Assuming this is family owned since there were pictures of them near the register. So happy for this delicious find.
Stoped by here today my gf wanted to try it, really glad we came it was so damn good! My picadillo plate was 10/10 with tortillas hechas a mano. Her asada burrito was also really good but my plate was alittle better lol, Service was also amazing! And they serve BEER! Definitely recommend to anyone in the area wanting good Mexican food.
We were looking for a place to eat We found Gallo Bravo through Yelp and what a great find it was! Starting with their crispy chips and delicious salsa, my husband and I both ordered menudo which is homemade and to die for but the best part for me was the homemade tortillas! They really took me back to my childhood in Guatemala! The owners are super nice and we can't wait to come back and try other dishes! We definitely recommend it! If you are looking for a great place to eat mexican food, this is it! They also have pupusas!!!!
My son just finished soccer practice and was hungry. We happened to see this place open so we stopped by. We walked in at 6:50 and saw they closed at 7:00 so we were ready to leave but they insisted we stay and I'm glad we did the food was amazing, very authentic and everyone loved their plate. We got a quesadilla, pupusas, a taco plate and a bowl of seafood soup. The only thing better than the food was the service. This is a small family owned restaurant that knows how to serve great food and treat customers like family. We will definitely be coming back.
The food is so good! I definitely recommend coming here. Staff is also very friendly and provide great service. I will be coming back!
1st time visiting & recently changed ownership too. The owners were friendly & attentive. The food was delicious! I really like the salsa, very delicious & not spicy. They also had homemade tortillas! The restaurant is spacious & good for larger parties too. Definitely will be back!
DELICIOUS!!! I had heard great things about El Gallo Bravo. Homemade authentic food and humble serviceable, attentive new owners. I had a breakfast plate of NOPALITOS CON LENGUA en salsa y cebollas, tender rice and cheese covered beans. DELICIOUS!!! The agua de jamaica was fresh and the service authentic and friendly. WE RECOMMEND EL GALLO BRAVO to all the high desert. Buena gente y comida. Thank you
I seldom give 5 stars, but this place has offered me the best seafood soup I ever had since I became a yelper so... here it goes! The place itself features nothing special in itself yet it's very clean. The kitchen is semi opened, you can tell how clean it is and also see that everything is made from scratch to order. The staff is super friendly and helpful. They even gave me some birria consommé sampler when I asked if i could just get a taste of it. The best part: The food! Their chicken meat is such a delish. seasoned to perfection with an after taste of mesquite (I think?), perfectly cooked, some of the best chicken taco I ate but the best.... was the spicy seafood soup. The owner/cook told me she would make it extra spicy for me and that everything was made to order, including the soup broth. She didn't lie and didn't disappoint. The seafood was so fresh and so perfectly cooked (the octopus would literally melt in my mouth), the flavors were so intense yet delicate. Lot of shrimps and large chunks of firm fish. Perfectly seasoned, it reminded me some of the soups I used to eat in south Asia but in a better, more tasteful version with of course a different (Mexican) kick. I think the tortilla is homemade, but I am not 100% sure. I highly recommend this place and can't wait to go back! PS: seat yourself, pay at the register once you're done. Help yourself with drinks.
