“We get take-out a couple of times a month at El Cazador and have always had a positive experience. The staff are friendly and prompt, and the food is consistently good. Our order has always been correct the first time. I have to recommend the Salsa Verde if you want your food mildly caliente! Also, their guacamole is always fresh and flavorful.” —Morgan M.
“A great restaurant with authentic Mexican food. They have a big variety of dishes to try. Also they have big margaritas, so you’ll defiantly get your money’s worth. I sat outside on the deck when I was there, which I recommend so you can see the ocean and the sunset. If you have a larger group you might want to call ahead especially in the summer season. Overall great food, service and atmosphere!” —Sam B.
