REVIEWS
See what our customers are saying.
Out of all the Mexican food shops in my area on this site, El Lider is consistently the best. Their birria is hands down the best I've had, and they knock it out of the park with their selection of agua frescas and churros. Seriously, if you are in the mood for good Mexican food, I can't recommend them enough!

El Lider is always bomb. I tried the birria eggrolls today for the first time... fire. I tried it with consomes (included), the red sauce provided but loved them with the avacado sauce the best. Tacos were great also. And as always their customer service is fantastic. 10/10

Wow this was incredible. The eggrolls were super crispy and delicious. The ramen arrived hot and not soggy at all. Both the eggrolls and ramen were generous sizes. Will order again!
