Came to cellular express and had the beautiful suprise of meeting Poblano who asked if i was hungry, I am glad i was, what a delicious chile relleno carne asada 😋 so much freshness and flavor in every bite, the owner Al was there and greeted me with a very warm smile, Sylvia and Poblano were very hospitable and eager to make sure i was happy with the food and service, can't wait to come back and try all the other delicious food they serve

Restaurants El Gordo is a small hole in the wall restaurant in a small shopping center with small parking lot that's gets packed with car because others businesses in the shopping center. A friend of my recommend to try Restaurant El Gordo the food is incredible good but owners is very friendly and greet you at the door. The restaurant is small and the owner told down please order we told me we like order our food to go. One of his cooks ask us what we like to order my wife order carne asada burrito and I order the chile relleno plate. They people in the restaurant enjoy the food at the restaurant. Our food was ready and then we left the restaurant. When we go home I open my chile relleno and took a bite the chile relleno was really with so much flavors in the chile relleno
