Amazing food and service! This was our first time and the host/server was genuinely friendly and answered all my silly questions. I cannot say enough about the really good salsa with the chips. Be back again soon!

Looooove this place. The food here is absolutely delicious and the staff are kind and friendly. The atmosphere is kind of fun, especially if there is singing or karaoke going on. We always make a stop here at El Nopal after our long hikes or climbs near Sumas border. Just before heading back to Vancouver we always make sure stop for lunch or dinner and wrap up the day with delicious and good quality food. Try Express Burrito and Chicken Steak Fajitas very tasty and satisfying.

Still the best Mexican food in the Lower Mainland (BC) and Fraser Valley (BC). Located just across the Huntingdon/Sumas border crossing in Sumas, WA, USA. We've been going here for over 20 years. The food is simply exceptional with tons of flavour. Dishes shown are Acapulco Steak (with garlic prawns, rice, beans and salad) and Enchiladas Suizas (with rice and beans). Lots of food...you will be full if you finish. Great, fast service. Large parking lot out front and many seating options. The food isn't cheap, but good value for taste and amount. Worth making the effort to stop here!
