| - Not good not good not good not good.
Oh god, guys, I don't know where to start with El Guero. First of all, never get corn on anything you order cause that stuff comes straight out of a can. It's not even tasteless, it is actively bad, and this is corn we're talking about. I almost felt like I was being personally attacked.
Secondly, the hot salsa is HOLY CRAP SO SALTY. I am not one to complain about the saltiness of food but I had trouble eating my bowl because of how salty it was. I'm sure that other ingredients contributed to the overall salinity of my meal. To add to this, the beans have absolutely no flavor.
I have admittedly only had one experience with El Guero and I may chance returning to try a different set of ingredients, but I was pretty disappointed by a few things that are not hard to get right.
The portions were acceptable for the price, and the service was alright, but I will give this place maybe one more try before it's gone from my life forever. What I can definitely say is that if you're craving a fast Mexican lunch, go to Ohio City Burrito if you have the time. Otherwise, support a brand new restaurant and enjoy Charkha's awesome Indian lunch buffet right down the street.
El Guero is not worth your time or money. Avoid wherever possible.
