El Caporal means the foreman

Ride on in.

The head cowboy runs the ranch, and here he never left. Pull up a chair, the chips are warm, the skillet is hot and the queso is world famous. Make sure to take some home.

★★★★★
This is my absolute favorite place to eat!! Everything is always amazing. It's a lil pricey but it's worth it. Sizzling hot fajitas, the best Queso anywhere and their frozen margaritas are definitely NOT watered down as Ive found at other places. On a nice day, bring your dog and enjoy your meal on their outdoor patio. Highly recommend.

The owners and staff know you by name, they shake your hand and greet you personally. The food is phenomenal and the only Mexican restaurant in the area I'm willing to pay for. No notes. Amazing.

This is easily our favorite Mexican restaurant in the area. The atmosphere is festive, clean, and modern. The food is well seasoned, hot, and delicious. Try the Burrito Ranchero. It's my cheesy savory favorite! We’ve been long-term fans/customers and love this place!
