El Sombrero - Table reservation

I can't believe all of the good reviews this place has. While the service was friendly and fast, the food was not great. The chips and salsa that we ordered had stale chips and the salsa tasted like Italian marinara sauce. The guacamole was a strange consistency--pureed like baby food and had no flavor. There could not have been any cilantro or jalepeno in it. Nothing tasted home made. We ordered a pitcher of margaritas and were served frozen strawberry margaritas (???) that did not at all taste like there was any tequila in them. We all ordered fajitas and they also had a strange flavor and the meat was tough--not marinated. I realize that we have amazing Mexican and Tex-Mex in the south-we...

OK, maybe in Mexico City this place wouldn't get a look in but here it does fine. We were staying in the Ibis Hotel literally next door and sampled chicken fahitas for two and herself had a tiramisu for afters. The service, the speed of service, the price and most importantly the food itself were all top notch.

I don't usually like Mexican food, but this place was right under our hotel (Ibis Saarbrucken City Centre) and served us well. The Chilli con Carne and Fajita's were very good indeed. Be aware - the portions are huge!

The food was ok, nothing special. Reasonable price, however, waiting for 1 hour for main courses is not ok, had to ask the staff for a few times. No apology,no explanation. Disappointed with the service.
