The food at El Segundo is excellent. It is very flavorful and tasty. The downsides are ones that I unfortunately have found at other Cameron Mitchell restaurants. Those are even though I made a reservation, I had to wait 15 minutes before being seated. In the scheme of things, this is not that big of an issue, but like I stated, it has occurred at other Cameron Mitchell restaurants. The other issue is the noise level. The extremely loud music made it difficult to have a conversation, resulting in people talking louder to be heard, resulting in the overall decibel level to continue to increase. This was at lunch time at a restaurant, not a evening night club. Like I said the food was outstanding, but the noise level diminished the overall dining experience.

The decor and atmosphere was nice, although the music was pretty loud! I struggled hearing my dining partner that was 2 feet across from me. I was not impressed by the food at all, I honestly would have preferred Taco Bell and I am not being hyperbolic. One positive thing was the quickness- we had an appetizer a meal and a cocktail and cashed out in 30 minutes. I honestly would not go back. 🤷‍♀️

Tried El Segundo for the first time at brunch. The location is great and the overall vibe of the place is nice as well! Enjoyed the Huevos Rancheros and the Bloody Mary. Both were delicious! Looking forward to returning for dinner to enjoy their Margaritas on tap as well as the Mezcal lineup.

My husband and I decided to try El Segundo for our 31st anniversary. Loved the vibe of the place, our server was fantastic and the food was good. My brisket was tasty, but a little bit fatty otherwise I would give 5 stars. Chips and salsa were delicious and fresh plus our margarita and Paloma slush were delicious & refreshing! Noise level was pretty high, but not unexpected. Overall a great experience !

It’s a Cameron Mitchell restaurant but also a bit more “affordable” than other choices… and it was a busy night in the Short North. All that aside I guess I had higher hopes for this restaurant. The service was not so great and the noise level coming from the open front windows was excessive. I think I would have had as good of a meal, if not better, at any of the other Mexican restaurants in town.

Unfortunately, this is the worst Cameron Mitchell restaurant we have ever been to before. The food is just meh, it’s too expensive for what it is and the overall decor looks as though they were almost trying too hard. Would much rather go to Marcellas

My husband and I decided to eat here for brunch for our anniversary. It was just ok, very overpriced for Mexican food and not what we’d expect from a Cameron Mitchell restaurant. The queso didn’t have much flavor, you have to pay $7 for chips and salsa and the Mexican rice tasted like it was out of the box. Our service was good and the ambiance is fine, but the food is lacking.

Great pineapple margaritas. Our server came by multiple times in a short period to see how we were doing. She also made sure we were able to grab another drink before happy hour ended. Fish tacos are also bomb! Noise level was expected for it being a Friday happy hour in a busy area of Columbus.

Food was great. We went on a busy evening, so we understood that there would be a wait for the food - but at times it felt as if our server forgot to check on us (at one point we were waiting to order dessert, but he didn't come back for 15+ minutes so we decided against it). I'll definitely be back, but was a bit disappointed with that part of the experience.
