A colleague and I stumbled upon this restaurant and wow, what a little gem. I love the family owned feel. The food was excellent and very authentic. I will definitely come back when I am in Lethbridge!

Good sized portions. We were there for supper on the weekend, left very full and satisfied; the atmosphere was comfortable, service was friendly, attentive and quick.
Started with mexican beer and nachos. The nachos have refried beans which makes them soo much more amazing, but will get soggy if you cant finish them all (we couldn't). My man had the enchiladas *with shredded beef* and I had the mexican combination - 2 enchiladas and tostada.
He loved the enchiladas, I thought they were good, filling, the sauce was tasty and at 'half spicy' we could add hot sauce to them. The shredded beef was a great choice (not sure why pork isn't anywhere on the menu??) but the ground beef in my tostada was watery and bland. The waiter had recommended the chimichanga option with my enchiladas and I should have listened to him. Our starter salads were standard iceberg salads but were well done and enjoyable.
Overall, the food was good, a bit plain, but filling. We didn't need to start with nachos as there was too much in our meals to finish. Want to go back again to try the burritos and the steak fajitas.
Food was delicious! I love Mexican and this place was a pleasant surprise! Especially since it's in lethbridge. But the service was terrible. It seemed to be WAY understaffed so it could have been the just day we went but the waitress only came out twice to see us (get orders and bring food) and we had to go searching for somone in order to pay. We didn't even get a chance to order dessert because she never came around again. Overall it's worth trying but be prepared for not the best service
First time here.. We all left very full ! The service was friendly and quick. The Guacamole was awesome. Will come again.

Never had a bad meal here. Polo Rachero was tried tonight and it was so tasty. Definitely will be back.
My wife and I can't get enough of the authentic home style food. The fundidos and margaritas are the best in the city. If you can eat the Mexican combination you won't be hungry for a while. It's one of the true gems in the city. Maria and her staff is what an authentic Mexican restaurant is. If you can't handle authentic food cooked from scratch, then you best be staying with your preservative filled chain restaurants.
It's Ok. Seen this place last time I was in town so decided to give it a try. The décor and atmosphere where nice not sure about the service cause I was the only one there at the time, it was only 3, but got my food pretty quick. All the meals are priced around 15 to 20 which is not bad considering the portions are massive needed a nap afterwards. Taste wise was ok not authentic but have not found a truly authentic Mexican joint in Canada yet. I got the Pollo Asado the sauce was decent with the perfect amount of heat, don't like looking like a ran a marathon at the table. The bean soup that came with it was delicious. All in all I would go back to try it again.
Awsome place! This is a great restaurant,good food and large portions! I love it
El Comal must have improved since the other reviews were posted. The service was terrific--prompt and polite. The food was really good. The last time I ate Mexican food was in New York, and it was a 10. This was close.
We love this restaurant and will drive over an hour just to eat here. Used to have bad service but they hired new staff. Food is awesome. I have never been disappointed and i try something new everytime Kids eat for 3 bucks too! Maria is the owner her mom is a server and speaks almost no English and the cooks are authentic mexicanos.
Authentic Mexican cooking from scratch. ❤ Maria pumps out a wide variety of delicious authentic dishes that keep people coming back. All her sauces are made fresh in-house and her home made hot sauce is out of this world! Portions are generous and prices reasonable. Great value for your restaurant dollar!
Great atmosphere, friendly staff. With all the beautiful Mexican decor would love to see a touch more colour on my plate. A slice of line or cilantro garnish? My food had excellent flavour and was unique. Thank you!
Service is ok but defiantly food is excellent!
Not so many choice of real Mexican food in Lethbridge. If you wanna try good Mexican here, go to El Comal!!!
Their Chicken dishes are awesome. Huge portion size with reasonable prices and good taste!
I love their design and decoration of this restaurant too! Very relaxed and cozy!
The Fiesta Mejicana was tasty, but the bean soup was the best part of our visit. If given the chance, I'd go back to Lethbridge just to try more dishes here.
Very good, I definitely had enough food but my gf was still a little hungry after.
Looking forward to coming back.
