El Asado Mexican Grill & Meat Market

The service is great and the food... To die for. We even checked out the market next door everything in there was farm fresh and the staff is very friendly. Need a good cut of meat or chicken this is the place to seek.

Amazing grilled meats! Super fresh and tasty we will definitely be back. The two person Asado isn't cheap but you get a ton of food at amazing value. Highly recommend for a casual dinner spot with delicious food.

If you're in the mood for authentic Mexican cuisine, El Asado is a hidden gem that deserves a visit! Tucked away as a charming hole-in-the-wall, don’t let the modest decor fool you; the real star here is the food. Each dish bursts with flavor, showcasing a perfect balance of spices that will leave your taste buds dancing with delight. While the service is solid, it doesn’t quite reach extraordinary heights. However, the quality of the food more than compensates for any service shortcomings. Though the prices lean towards the higher side, the generous portions and exceptional flavors make it well worth it. A must-try is the "Christmas Style" sauce, which combines both the green and red varieties. It’s a tough choice to make between the two, so why not indulge in both? Don’t forget to explore the market next door, which shares the same name. They offer farm-fresh meats that are free from hormones and antibiotics, making it a perfect stop for quality ingredients. Overall, El Asado is a delightful culinary experience that I highly recommend. Enjoy the food, embrace the flavors, and don’t overlook the market—this spot truly has it all!

The cut of meat for the fajitas was fantastic. Home made (2) tortillas. Whole meal was excellent. Staff was very friendly and prompt.

The meat here is the best I can find in the palm springs area. Bold claim, I know. I used to go to Jensens but now come here. Try the already prepared black beans from the fridge as well.

There is a few spots in the valley that serve quality meats and know they're product El Asado in Cathedral City has quality, I drive 35 min every 2 weeks thats 1hr 10min there and back, why do I tell you all this? Because they are quality meats, This place is famous for their high quality meats, every place always says they have quality meats but their meat is rancher sourced beef!! I arrived, and they sold out on some of the meat!! This place custom cuts you're meats, they teach you how to cook and season meats, it's you're 1 stop to quality meats, you won't go wrong! At least try them, they even have wagyu local rancher sourced meat and the like. Try them!!

This place is just superb. The carne asada plate is our favorite dish so far. Staff are very friendly and kind. This is a hidden gem!

This is an amazing little gem of a restaurant, tucked into a modest setting in a strip mall. My family and I went on New Year's Eve for lunch. The food is amazing. I ordered the carne asada platter, my wife got the steak fajitas, and the kids ordered some different burritos and tacos. All of the meats were fresh, and the flavors were robust without being too hot. They have some great local craft brews in cans, as well as Mexican Cokes and other soft drinks.
