El Pastor Mexican Restaurant
Since opening in 1998, we have established a reputation for traditional Mexican food. We serve up homemade food that traditional Mexican families would eat every day. This is food that mama would make back in our small town in Mexico with exciting dishes and unique ambiance. We serve only choice meats and seafood, fresh rice and beans, and our tortillas are baked fresh daily. Our authentic menu and atmosphere create a truly enjoyable dining experience.
Some Things Happy Customers Have Said
Sandra D.
El Pastor catered our party. We received many compliments -- our guests loved the food! Generous portions at a very reasonable price. Staff was easy to work with and everything we needed was provided, including a lighter for the sterno. Cheese dip and horchata especially delicious.

We ordered the taco bar for an office luncheon for 20 people and it was fabulous! Very reasonably priced and the food was really good. On time delivery with a smile! We added on the guacamole and it was one of the best I’ve had! Thank you!

Delicious food, over sized servings (the burrito was the whole length of a long plate and half the width), delicious margaritas, also over sized! Loved the place. Servers were kind and friendly. Definitely recommended
Rebecca K.
This is a great Mexican restaurant, all the flavors are there and their decorations are very typical of Mexico. Their mole has one of the best flavors in Madison. I would greatly recommend anyone who wants to try real Mexican food to go here and try some enchiladas or tacos.

Great food! I had the enchilada Suiza which was absolutely delicious!! The shrimp dish was amazing!The service was great. The place is medium sized so around dinner time the tables were filling up quickly. The horchata was delicious. Prices are very reasonable. Great experience!
