Authentic Mexican cuisine, freshly prepared and delivered to your table piping hot. That’s what you will get when you visit El Sombrero Mexican Grill in Oakwood, Georgia. El Sombrero has been a familiar fixture in the state of Georgia for over twenty-five years. The restaurant is locally owned and operated, with the majority of its restaurants in the northeast Georgia area.

The menu at El Sombrero reads like a Mexican foodie’s dream. Everything from tacos, burritos, quesadillas and enchiladas to appetizers of various soups and salads, all are made-to-order and brought to your table by friendly waiters and waitresses. Daily lunch specials offer smaller portions of their fabulous dinner items for a lower price. My personal favorite has to be one of their specialties – the Mexican Cheese Steak. A generous portion of seasoned steak cut into strips, along with lettuce, tomato, and cheese wrapped in a huge flour tortilla and covered in more cheese, with a side of refried beans or Mexican rice. Pair that with their endless warm tortilla chips and salsa and you’ve got a meal that will keep you coming back for more!

El Sombrero also offers nine types of nachos, six different chip dips (besides the salsa), twelve different quesadillas, and an endless variety of combo dinners to suit almost any taste. Seriously. The combos are one entire page in the menu! They even have vegetarian and kids meals. Each El Sombrero location also features a full bar. It’s the perfect place to bring a date, especially if you both love Mexican food and great margaritas.
