We were staying at the lodge next door and ate at the steakhouse our first night, second night we were tired and just wanted quick casual bite to eat. We each ordered carne asada tacos, they were out of pork already. They brought out chips and salsa. The chips were a thicker crunchy type chip, which were tasty. The crushed tomato based salsa was really good. It was our favorite. Bright, fresh tasting, and a little spicy. When the tacos came, our nice server brought out the green and orange hot sauce. She warned us that the orange one was really spicy, so we only did a quick taste. It was very hot-hotter than we enjoy. So, we stuck to the green sauce and the tomato salsa. We even took some salsa to go. All for $21 dollars before tip.We got stuffed and woke up the next morning still talking about how delicious everything was. We had to leave the next day, so we couldn't/t go back, bet we would have in a heartbeat. It will be on our list to eat there every day next time we go to Jackson.

If I could give six stars, I would!My friend and I were just coming out of a week-long backpacking trip in the Gros Ventre and wanted a warm meal. This was one of the top-rated restaurants in Jackson. There was another well-rated Mexican spot, but given that the name of this restaurant is in Spanish, we thought it would be more authentic.There was a line; it was an afternoon on a holiday, so this was understandable. After a little while we were seated.I don't like thinking about menus. They had some options on the menu for two people--we selected Molcajete.During this time, everyone around us was drinking these absolutely massive drinks that I would describe as a shandy margarita--they involved a 40 oz beer, agua fresca, and a pink salted (massive) glass. But they weren't on the menu as far as we could tell, and we didn't venture to inquire.After a little while, the dishes started coming out: a bowl of green sauce, a bowl of red sauce, a stack of 20 corn tortilla, a bowl of sliced limes, and a massive frying pan piled high with chicken, steak, chorizo, shrimp, massive jalapeños, cactus, and green onions.It was a choose-your-own-adventure taco festival! Turns out the bowls full of sauce were hot sauce, not salsa, but we didn't want to waste it, so we were soon sweating! It was a kind of ridiculous amount of food for two people, but after a week in the wilderness, we were ready for it!While all this was going on, the tables started consolidating in part of the room to host an ever-growing birthday party. By the time we left, there must have been thirty people lining a series of tables snaked around the room. They were having a great time, so it was a lovely atmosphere to be in.All in all, El Metate can provide an experience you won't soon forget! I can't wait to go again!
