El Picante Mexican Grill

What a find! This is an unpretentious licensed cafe. The atmosphere was lovely - every table full, the server, Ellie, was charming and helpful. We were walk-ins and they accommodated us without fuss. Having lived in Texas we were delighted at the menu - proper TexMex and every dish had authentic flavours. I was beaten! The portion sizes are ample and colourful. Definitely be returning here!

Food is good. Very tasty. Delivery service needs improvement. Online order took 110 minutes to arrive. Rang them a couple of times and they have no idea when the food will arrive.

Amazing food, huge sizes, and relatively low prices. The best combo you can have!

I like the food, I have ordered from here numerous times trying their different food and I have had authentic Mexican food in different countries and in the states. Things that I think they could improve on: Salsa - the salsa doesn't taste pleasant and is very bitter. I have always avoided using them, they need to improve their ingredients because the taste is very bad and doesn't taste authentic to any Mex inspired salsa. Burritos - while these don't taste bad, the burrito balance is very different to a traditional Mexican burrito. It has its own take on it which is okay but to make this taste improve they should make it closer to the real thing. The carne asada burrito was also very far from meeting any mark of that of a proper Mexican burrito and didn't taste as pleasant to eat. Overall: salsa and burritos could be better, especially the salsa

Food was great. Service was lovely. Polite people, definitely best Mexican restaurant in Bedford

Attended tonight and the service was phenomenal!! Very attentive young lady and helped massively with the birthday cake for my granddaughter and great food and drinks quick service. First time trying and will not be the last Thank you El-Picante.

One of the best Mexican food I have tired so far!!! We ordered the Golden cassava fries for starters which was so good 10/10 but I personally found it very difficult to distinguish just normal potatoes fries to the cassava fries.But regardless, they were 10/10! Next we had chilli con carne with stake, another 10/10 the steak was a-bit on the tough side but we loved it still, and the portion was huge! Overall the food was freshly made and it tasted so authentic! I will definitely be coming back again to try this restaurant! Bonus point also would be the affordability!

I did scheduled ordered to be delivered by 8:30 which was 20 mints late. Food came but was too much salty. We put in bin
