El Picante Mexican Grill in Bedford

What a great restaurant. Took my husband Steve and my friend for her birthday meal and we had so much fun. The guy who attended to us was friendly and funny. The food was amazing. Definitely worth going. We'll be back again.

There are not many Mexican restaurants in the UK and so it was refreshing to stumbled across this little gem.The service was friendly and professional with accurate advice about the food that was very welcome.I have saved the best for last :). The food was absolutely delicious. Freshly made and they clearly didn't scrimp on any of the ingredients as the meal was substantial leaving me feeling well fed and satisfied after paying the bill which I thought was very reasonable.A well deserved 5 stars for this establishment.

Food was absolutely amazing. I ordered food to collect at 8:45pm but didn't realise they closed at 9pm. I am in the area working and was advised by a colleague that the food here was great. I got lost ( Google maps kept redirecting) and arrived at 9pm. The lovely staff didn't show any annoyance and waited for my arrival before closing. Thank you for being so kind. Both my colleague and I loved the food ( I had a sirloin steak burrito) it was tasty, hot and fabulous. Will definitely be back and would highly recommend 👌

Great atmosphere, great food and great service! Always love el picantes food here and service is great. Fun atmosphere with music and food that makes you want to dance 💃🏽 Manuel is our fave! Brilliant cocktails 🍸 👌

Amazing food and amazing staff. Definitely worth a visit and will be back for more

Fantastic food and amazing staff. The food not only tastes great it also comes in big portions. The staff are brilliant and very attentive, even noticing when we looked at the open door because of the cold breeze and running to close the door.Overall fantastic experience, will definitely be returning.

Some of the very best food in Bedford. A huge menu with amazing portion sizes, friendly and charismatic staff, and burritos to die for.Cannot recommend this place enough. It feels truly authentic and everything a Mexican restaurant should be!

This place has the best food I've ever had. Fresh and delicious. 5 stars don't do it justice. I'll definitely be coming back until I have sampled the entire menu.The service was also brilliant and all the staff were very positive and friendly.

Very lovely staff, food is in big portion, with lots of meat inside. Highly recommended.

First time in this restaurant. Good service; food delicious- big portion- forgot the dish name but ordered crispy corn base with beans, pork and cheese. Will definitely return to try other dishes
