Best Mexican restaurant in Pikeville!! Food is always fresh and they have the best shrimp in town. Their salsa and cheese dip is way better than any of the other places I've tried. I highly recommend eating from El Picante if you are wanting authentic Mexican cuisine. It's top notch and the staff is amazing!!

Normally, I love this restaurant. Today, I was very disappointed. I ordered the 106. Papitas Mexicanas which is my standard. It is supposed to be covered in cheese. The cheese makes the dish. Today's order barely had a spoonful of cheese and the french fries were overcooked. It was so dry. I'm hoping it was a one off.

The beef was a little dry and the huge portion only came with 2 small tortillas. The vegetables were delicious.
