Editorial Review for El Indio Mexican Restaurant – by Erin Chambers
In Short
The imported, Mexican ceramic tiles that colorfully line the floor at this friendly no-frills eatery have been in place for decades, as have many of the kitchen staff in back. Get in line by the rod iron gate under the colorful Mexican flags and be sure to grab your chips, salsa and guac before you order. The carnitas, carne asada, rolled tacos and enchiladas come in combo plates with refried beans and rice.

Insider Tips
Where to SitThe round, tiled tables across the street are part of El Indio, and a nice place to sit on a sunny day, if you don't mind the freeway noise from I-5.
The ExtrasMortiditas are the famous rolled tacos, chopped into one-inch chunks and covered with nacho cheese sauce--jalapenos optional.
What to DrinkLook for authentic Mexican beverages like tamarindo and hibiscus juice over by the soda machines.
