Hear from our valued guests
Very good food and great service! We especially liked all the sauces with the chips and the food.
The food prices were a little above average, but not bad. The service was excellent! The rice was a little bland. Overall, it was very good food.
Since the Los Cucos in our hometown burned down, we have been missing the great dishes offered by Los Cucos restaurants. El Campo Los Cucos DID NOT DISAPPOINT. Service was great, drinks were amazing, and the FOOD WAS FABULOUS!!! Will be visiting again for sure.
I ordered online today beef quesadilla, I don't know where they got the beef from I ordered around 5:00PM , came in paid for it the To Go cashier went to the back , I tell whoever the cook was today the food was awesome 😎👍, it was hot tender , when I come through from Houston I will stop again this locations food taste way better than the restaurant in Houston WOW , I PROMISED myself I would right a review and not forget , everyone was friendly, there was one gentleman standing at the door when I came in he had long dreads , maybe he was one of the host he made sure to say thank you when I was leaving , I think for a small town like El Campo this was great service I'm in love with that quesadilla,
The food is always delicious. Plain and simple. And definitely try the stuffed avocados. If you are a fan of avocados in any way, this will change your life.lol
Very good food. Our waiter was very responsive and the food was delivered quickly and hot. Highly likely to return when in El Campo.
It was super busy and loud when our family arrived at the restaurant you couldn't hear the person singing near the entrance. The food was delicious although our waitress seemed to be a bit overwhelmed and stressed. The place was clean and well-maintained. Would recommend this place overall.
Wonderful experience! Lester our server was amazing! He never let us run out of drinks or chips. When we asked for a to go box he brought us salsa and green sauce to take home with chips as well! Such a great lunch there! I loved they had the Olympics on!
The best Mexican food I have ever eaten!!! And look at all you get. Well worth every penny. The service was superb, my glass of water was never empty. I got extra chips and dip to take home, waitress was super nice and extremely efficient. Everything was very clean. Great place to eat. Definitely will go back.
Excellent choice I made the day I decided to try out this newer location of Los Cucos. I was delighted to find this beautiful restaurant in Bay City, TX. We arrived mid afternoon (4:00) and enjoyed every moment of our visit. We knew from the first moment that we were entering a first rate establishment. Everyone we encountered was extremely welcoming and professional. Our waiter was very kind and provided excellent service all though we only had Margaritas and appetizers during their happy hour. I'm so happy to know of this new-ish location and I can't wait to visit again when I'm back in the area, which will be more often now.
