El Sombrero in Regensburg

Very welcoming place, warm colors and Mexican setting. Each table has a lot of privacy thanks to the walls that act as booths. The menu is very rich and the dishes are tasty and well made. The service is courteous but a single waiter can have difficulty serving all the tables.

Quaint little Mexican restaurant. Food starter, main course, dessert all tasted great and large portions. Short wait for the food, service super friendly. Highly recommended!

Essen okay, Bedienung lustlos und eine richtige Rechnung gab‘s auch nicht, „da hätte man alles nochmal stornieren müssen und dann kann nur der Chef, der heut nicht da is“ - wer‘s glaubt 🙄

The restaurant is really well designed and has a nice atmosphere. Unfortunately, the tacos I ordered have nothing to do with the original tacos and are more similar to spring rolls. The fajitas were very good though. Unfortunately, what made the evening very unpleasant for us was the service. From the start she was very snippy and rude. Paying by card was rather complicated. Guests were pressured to leave by asking them to pay. However, this was already at 9:15 p.m., even though the restaurant is supposedly open until 11 p.m. All in all, unfortunately for us it was a pretty unpleasant visit to a restaurant that we wouldn't like to repeat.

Price-performance is not fair, for €16 not a single sauce is weak

Very unpleasant experience with a very rude waiter. Tacos have nothing to do with tacos! On top of that, super overpriced and the NeoTaste coupon was not accepted. The waiters even became abusive at times, which is why I don't recommend this restaurant!

Super nice restaurant with very, very tasty food! You immediately feel as if you were in Mexico, as the ambience is super beautiful and lovingly detailed. Price-performance ratio is completely consistent. Gladly again!

A restaurant as you would imagine. The food and drinks are super delicious. The staff was very attentive and friendly. Although almost all of the seats were occupied, there was never the feeling that things were hectic. Simply recommended. Keep it up.

Super Mexican Cozy Nice personel Large selection delicious Nice location to sit outside (when it's warm 😉) 👍

I really enjoy staying at El Sombrero! Recently, the new lunch offer surprised me so positively in terms of price/performance that I made several recommendations to my friends. Something like this rarely or never exists anymore. The vegetarian version was super tasty, beautifully prepared and definitely left me full when I left the store. I will now come for lunch more often and can recommend that everyone do the same. Thank you and see you next time

Unfortunately, I am very disappointed with how this restaurant has developed in recent years. I have been a regular customer for the past few years. Unfortunately the service has become so bad and the food is so expensive. We waited 25 minutes for an iced tea and many dishes were no longer in stock (at 6:00 p.m.). We waited 45 minutes for food and at the end the waiter asked us if we wanted to tip him. A few years ago I could recommend the store, but not anymore. Never again!

It was my first time as a guest with my wife, at first it was a bit confusing but then it subsided. The food was very tasty and the prices are completely reasonable. The interior is cozy and pleasant. Small and nice fits, I would say. The outside area is in a great location. Staff very friendly and knew the dishes. I'd love to go there again.

Delicious food and good attentive service 👍 my Mexican for many years 😍

Worst Mexican food. The tacos were like fried spring rolls. Burrito looked like it came out of the microwave. One star is still too many

Unfortunately, the enchilada tasted almost like nothing. A little more spice wouldn't have hurt. You should also think about the filling. Soft-boiled broccoli and cauliflower somehow don't work. The side salad on the other hand was fresh and crunchy. Service was friendly and food came to the table quickly. Unfortunately, instead of a small water, a large water was charged, which we noticed too late.

Top service, Jay was the best ❤️

Best shot in the world. Great host and jay is the best bartender

The fajitas are better than my Mexican friend's. Sorry Marisol 🙈

I wrote the following email about a week ago, but unfortunately I didn't get a reply! Ladies and Gentlemen I am contacting you to describe an extremely unpleasant experience I had in your restaurant on August 10, 2024. When we arrived, the waiter in charge was visibly overwhelmed, but we accepted this with understanding as the place was quite busy. Right at the start of our visit, we pointed out to the waiter that we wanted to use a coupon. Unfortunately, at the end of the meal there was a misunderstanding as the waiter informed us that the coupon could no longer be redeemed because he had already entered the amount in the cash register. To my astonishment, he claimed that we had not informed him of this in a timely manner, even though this had happened. When I tried to solve the problem, the waiter wouldn't let me finish and reacted extremely unprofessionally. I then asked him to let me finish, to which he replied "no" and accused me of treating him disrespectfully because I was disturbing him at work. At this point there were only 3 tables outside with 2-4 people each, which made me feel very unwelcome. To top off this inappropriate behavior, he pushed me aside, which I found to be extremely disrespectful and also drew the attention of other guests. He also told us that such a misunderstanding had happened before and complained about your cooperation with NeoTaste. I would like to emphasize that I have been working in the catering industry for five years and therefore have a certain understanding of stressful situations. However, the waiter's snappy answers and his irritable manner are absolutely unacceptable and are by no means the manners that should be displayed in a professional catering establishment. I really hope that you take this matter seriously to ensure that something like this doesn't happen again in the future. Such behavior not only spoils the experience of your guests, but also damages the reputation of your establishment. Finally, I would like to emphasize that I am not writing this message primarily because of the misunderstanding regarding the coupon, but rather because of how it was responded to. It's a shame that we got a rather negative impression, even though the food was excellent. I am of course available to answer any questions you may have at any time.

It would actually be a great shame, but a great restaurant doesn't accept our Neotaste voucher. We have already redeemed around 30 Neotaste vouchers, it always worked, but not this time. Would definitely not recommend getting there with Neotaste Reply to comment: Food is really good, you can definitely come here if you want to enjoy good Mexican food. Unfortunately, the Neotaste incident ruined my evening. I can't give more than one star for my personal experience.

The food was very greasy and didn't taste good and I'm not at peace

Very good food, friendly service and great location. Stable chairs and tables. Highly recommended

Very friendly staff and the food here is fantastic

Very tasty food in the old town. We were here as a family and tried different dishes. The homemade iced tea and the Plato Mexicano were particularly recommended. We'll definitely come back.

Damn tasty, but a bit pricey. Nice personel

The homemade ice tea was very tasty with fruits in it. They were good portions. I had the Enchilada Vera Cruz €16.50, my partner had Fajita de Argentina €23.20. The enchiladas tasted very delicious and the salad was also tasty. Unfortunately the Argentina was disappointing, it was very spicy and not special in taste. Beforehand we had bread "Pan Con Ajo" €6.00. Just a great sandwich. Together with the Ice Tea €5.30 and a beer €4.50, this came to a total of €55.50. However, we received a bill for +-€87. When we asked for the specific bill we were told that it is "just" 87 euros. We were briefly shown the receipt, but we were not given time to read it. It seemed quite menacing. In short, excellent food, but not a pleasant feeling about having to pay this bill, which is a shame.

El Sombrero behind the statue of Don Juan d'Austria at the Old Town Hall in Regensburg Ambiance We sat outside due to the weather. The atmosphere here is of course fantastic with the old houses and the old town hall in the background. I've never sat inside so I can't judge it. The seating is not very comfortable, but OK. It is a typical tourist restaurant and the food and drink menus are prepared accordingly, which is not particularly appealing to me. food and drinks We had different dishes, but they were all very “Germanized”, i.e. H. with typical German vegetables and the dishes were very lightly seasoned. The starter Gambas al Ajillo was – considering the price – very straightforward. Just a few shrimps in the broth with 2 small pieces of baguettes. I would like to leave it uncommented as to whether they were actually prawns (due to their size). The main course was fajitas in various variations. The chicken was okay, the beef was very well done, it had definitely been left on the oven or in the convection oven for too long. Everything is VERY LITTLE seasoned. The prices correspond to the rush of the tourist or walking public; For me the price/performance ratio was not appropriate. service Service varies greatly depending on who is serving, from very polite and courteous to visibly bored. Here, the boss should perhaps speak to the service staff in his own interest or give clear instructions. It took a little longer before both drinks and food were served. Conclusion We certainly won't be coming back any time soon. There are better Spanish and Mexican restaurants here in Regensburg.

We came here because of neotaste and couldn't redeem the voucher because we didn't let them know beforehand. In all other restaurants this is not a problem. Food was really not convincing. Guacamole is a better choice if you want to eat Mexican food.

The meal was okay. Not the best Mexican I've ever eaten, but not bad either. Price was high, but still ok. The atmosphere is very nice, even with the outdoor seating. But what really bothered us was the service staff assigned to us. She was very snippy and extremely stressed. Drinks were forgotten twice, but they ended up appearing on the bill, which seemed to lead to endless discussions. In addition, our voucher was not accepted because we should have said this beforehand because the service staff would have to enter this differently into the cash register. A subsequent cancellation and retyping was refused by the boss; he was friendly but extremely uncooperative. We won't be coming back.

Great store. Food top, service top, reservation top ;) Looking forward to next time

Always happy to come here, also perfect for watching football! Staff also great

Food tasted very good. Big portion. And Ali served us and he gave us excellent recommendations and at the same time was very friendly. Gladly again

Very tasty food and extremely friendly conditions! Works great with NeoTaste.

Super tasty, super friendly, can't be topped

The BEST Mexican food in Regensburg. The ambience is so good. I would highly recommend to sit inside the restaurant to experience both the food and the colorful atmosphere😍

The food was delicious and everyone was nice, but you should use the toilets again with a brush.

The food was delicious and the meaning was very, very friendly. Keep it up dear El Sombrero team.

Uriges, nicht zu lautes Restaurant mit Kneipencharme. Nette Bedienung, gutes und reichliches Essen zu einem vernünftigen Preis

Had ordered a table for 3 people, which can accommodate a maximum of 2 people. We were then brought a very wobbly chair. When we asked why we got such a small table despite making a reservation, the young man who served us and seemed very annoyed said that we don't have to eat here. We then changed the restaurant and were able to get to know the very nice and attentive service staff.

Rarely have I experienced such insolence. We had reserved a table for 3 people. When we arrived, the waiter showed us to our table, which was actually only for 2 people. For the 3rd person he brought a rickety chair. When we asked for another table, he said in an extremely unfriendly manner that we could just leave if the space didn't suit us. We actually left because we didn't want to be treated like that. Never again !!

We had dinner today with a teenager, a toddler and a dog. The service was top. Everyone enjoyed the food very much. Not a long wait. The dog got some water. Price-wise, completely okay.

The restaurant is cozy, especially on warm summer evenings when you can sit outside. The menu is clear and well structured. The service was friendly and the food was ready fairly soon after ordering. The food was very tasty, the salad perhaps had a little too much dressing for my liking and the quesadillas had a little too much sauce. But it was all within reason and overall the taste was very tasty. Portion sizes are good and the price is appropriate.

Very tasty and the waiters were very friendly😁

Small restaurant with a welcoming, cozy atmosphere and friendly service. The large salad for the starter was very simple, mostly iceberg lettuce with some cucumber and tomato, the dressing was very bland. The main courses, however (fajitas), were very tasty and well seasoned.

The food tasted great! The waiters were all very friendly and the atmosphere was great :)

Really relaxed & casual restaurant with Mexican flair. The food tasted very good!

Leider muss ich eine eher schlechte Bewertung hinterlassen... Das Personal ist nicht besonders freundlich, als wir bereits beim hinsetzen nach den Getränken gefragt wurden und ich entgegnete, dass wir noch ein paar Minuten benötigen ist das bei der Bedienung nicht gut angekommen. Meine Vorspeise (chilli con carne klein) hat zwar sehr gut geschmeckt allerdings muss ich bemängeln, das Hackfleisch ist sehr fest und klumpig gewesen... Ist kein schönes Gefühl im Mund. Der Hauptgang hat sehr gut geschmeckt nur der Hauptgang ist in Fett geschwommen. Bei meiner Begleitung hat soweit alles gepasst bis auf den Sangria aber das ist Geschmacksache und kann daher nicht gewertet werden. Was allerdings nicht okay ist, dass die Preise im Lokal nicht mit den Preis online übereinstimmen. Das Essen ist für die gebotene Menge und Qualität zu teuer.

Sehr lecker, wie immer! Top Service, sehr freundlich! Tolles Ambiente! Immer wieder gern Herzlichst Sängerin Marita

Nettes, kleines, mexikanisches Restaurant im Zentrum der Altstadt von Regensburg. Höfliche Bedienung und gemütliches Flair. Das Essen war sehr lecker und wunderschön angerichtet. Preise sind auf Regensburger Altstadtniveau.

Essen hat unserer Gruppe sehr geschmeckt. Alle waren glücklich danach. Klein aber fein! Wir kommen gerne wieder

Schön und auf jeden Fall empfehlenswert 👌

Übertrieben lecker, super freundliches und aufmerksames Personal und super nice Location! Wenn man in Regensburg wirklich gut essen gehen möchte, dann sollte man sich für das El Sombrero entscheiden! Ich freue mich jetzt schon auf meinen nächsten Besuch in Regensburg, sogar auf den Tequila! DANKE 🙃

Klein, aber fein, kann ich da nur sagen. Sehr gemütlich, sehr freundlicher und schneller Service und das Essen war einfach lecker. Ich werde gerne wieder hingehen und kann es nur empfehlen für Freunde der mexikanischen Küche.

Schönes kleines Lokal mit sehr netter Bedienung. Essen war top und ausreichend. Sehr zu empfehlen.

Absolut empfehlenswert! Das Essen ist lecker, die Preise sind angemessen und das Ambiente sehr schön. Besonders auffällig ist das freundliche Personal und der sehr gute Service. Jederzeit wieder gerne:)

Kurzfristig noch einen Slot bekommen obwohl der Abend durchreserviert war, Service, Bestellung und Essen war schnell erledigt, Essen war echt lecker!! Junges motiviertes Team. Jederzeit wieder!

Unser Lieblingsmexikaner, schon seit Jahren! Die Plato Mexicano mit vier verschiedenen Tacos, den einmaligen zwei Saucen und das köstliche Chilli, drapiert auf einer Tacoschicht in Kombination mit dem knackigen Salat - ein Gedicht! Gibt auch Veggie Alternativen, die dem geschmacklich in nichts zurück stehen. Freundlicher Chef, der flexibel auf die Wünsche von kleineren Gästen eingeht. Ambiente wie in einer urigen mexikanischen Cantina. Tequila Sorten vom Feinsten!

Leckeres Essen, freundliche Bedienung!

Sehr gutes Essen. Drinks (aperol Spritz, Sangria) nicht ganz so toll, aber essen war super topp! (Fajitas) service ausgezeichnet. Sehr netter Kellner und sehr aufmerksam.

Sehr gutes Essen. Drinks (aperol Spritz, Sangria) nicht ganz so toll, aber essen war super topp! (Fajitas)

Sehr leckeres Essen, Super Service. Wir kommen wieder

Absolut tolles Personal …ABER leider war das Essen gar so besonders gut. Unflexible Küche - fertig Gemüse in den Tacos - Preise viel zu hoch für die Qualität des Essens! Keine reines Rindfleisch nur gemischt (wenn ein Gericht fast 17,00 Euro kostet kann man wenigstens reines Rind erwarten) -Tacos waren sehr sehr ölig absolutes NOGO! Hatten es dann doch bereut dieses Restaurant ausgesucht zu haben. Wir werden leider nicht wieder kommen aber wünschen euch das Beste.

Ein kleines, aber feines mexikanisches Restaurant, das Essen war top, da hat sich das Warten gelohnt.

Gutes und hochwertiges Essen. Tacos etwas fettig - natürlich Geschmackssache, wie man's mag. Typische Preise für Großstadtverhältnisse. Laden sauber und Personal nett. Wer die Kost noch nicht so kennt und mal was neues probieren möchte, ist hier gut aufgehoben. Das Lokal an sich ist altstadttypisch leider nicht barrierefrei.

Die Natchos waren kalt und zäh, der Salat fast ohne Dresseng, Enchiladas waren geschmacklich sehr neutral

Mein Essen (Fajitas) war sehr gut, dass Essen der anderen sah etwas lieblos aus (Salat) Richtig schade war, dass wir nach dem Essen ca 1 h keine Möglichkeit hatten Getränke zu bestellen. Die Lage ist super und das Restaurant innen wirklich gelungen.

Delicious food and friendly service.

Gemütliche Atmosphäre, leckeres Essen, tolle Cocktails, nette und freundliche Bedienung, wir kommen wieder 😊

Wir sind 20 minuten zu spät zur Reservierung gekommen und es war gar kein Problem. Fantastisches essen super Gewürzt und voller Geschmack. Die Tacos sind sind geil aber das Essen allgemein, ist dort sehr qualitativ und man kriegt ne große Portion!!! Das Guacamole dip ist perfekt und schön säuerlich, man schmeckt die frische raus. Unglaublich liebe und lustige Mitarbeiter/innen die die Atmosphäre sehr angenehm machen. :) Drinnen sieht es genau so gemütlich aus wie es ist und die Klos sind sauber! Safe 10/10 von mir, wahrscheinlich auch mein neues Lieblingsrestaurant. Noch nie gemacht aber einfach so gut das ich ne Google-Bewertung hinterlassen musste.

Haben To Go bestellt, hat alles super geklappt Hatten Burrito und Nachos mit Käse. Der Burrito hat zwar gut geschmeckt, aber der Preis von 16,50€ pro Stück für diese gefüllte "Teig Briefmarke " ist mehr als unverschämt. Vor allem in der jetzigen Zeit, viel zu teuer, fühle mich maßlos abgezockt. Die Nachos hingegen waren mit 9€ im Normalpreis, wobei ich noch nie frittierte Nachos gegessen habe und noch nicht ganz weiß was ich davon halten soll. Frittiert schmeckt ja eigentlich so gut wie alles und mit "Nachos mit Käse überbacken" hat das wenig zu tun gehabt. Abgesehen vom Preis, 2 viel zu kleine Gerichte + 1x Nachos 40€, war es ganz ok und lecker, werde aber nicht noch mal hingehen.

Gutes Essen, gute Drinks. Gelungener Abend. Gern wieder!

Sehr freundliche Bedienung, Mega leckeres Essen

Ein sehr netter Mexikaner, nähe Fischmarkt. Das Ambiente lädt zum Verweilen ein ☺️ . Die Getränkekarte hat reichlich Auswahl. Und das Personal / Besitzer sind unglaublich zuvorkommend und hilfsbereit. Kann ich nur weiterempfehlen 👍👍👍

das Essen war deutlich zu salzig

Sehr lecker gegessen. Netter Service. Preis - Leistung ist sehr gut.

Sehr freundlich, trotz vollem Restaurant und Außenbereich alles perfekt! Essen und Sangria mega lecker 🤩

Ich kann nur positives berichten. Gutes Essen, freundliche Bedienung. Besser geht's nicht!

It was a very good experience. The food was very delicious, and the price was according to the quality. I think I could also come again. The waitress was very friendly. Pets are also allowed. I can just recommended.

Super leckeres Essen 😋😋😋 Kein Tex-Mex was man so üblicherweise bekommt 😊 Kann ich nur weiterempfehlen. Leider am Sonntag, kann man nur von der Sonntagskarte bestellen, sonst hätte Sch schon was anderes bestellt, aber trotzdem alles sehr gut 😊 Sangria kann ich auch empfehlen 🍷

Essen wirklich lecker Service schnell und freundlich - und aufmerksam Immer wieder gerne (Getränke auch sehr gut )

Nettes Personal, nettes Ambiente und das Essen war auch sehr lecker. Empfehlenswert

Wir waren 2 Mal in 8 Tagen hier zum Abendessen. Es hat uns sehr gut hier gefallen und wunderbar geschmeckt. Der Kellner war sehr nett und hat uns gut beraten. Wenn wir wieder in Regensburg sind, kommen wir auf jeden Fall gerne wieder.

Simple Food, nice waiter and service. Several dishes on the menu were not available. Fajitas were okay. All other were also satisfied. Unfortunately also several Tequila on the card were not available. However, we will try again!
