Their food is always good.Hot and fresh.sometimes I wished that their quest cheese came in mild. The waiters are very attentive to your needs like refills and plates taken away and things like that. Super friendly service.

Very nice place in Brookville Indiana. Small place, cozy, friendly. Refills quick, food orders and chips delivered upon entry. Smiling faces and HOT food. Comes out fresh and hot can barely touch the actual plate. We had a birthday party for about 30 people and another group had at least as many people too, and other walk-ins and still room, no one had to wait for table or food. Perfect spot.

Had tacos and shrimp enchiladas everything was good and they gave me hard tacos instead of soft but they still brought the soft ones out and I took them home with me I thought that was pretty cool I'll go back again

We frequent El Reparo quite a bit and I can honestly say I've never had a bad experience. The food is wonderful and the staff are personable and always welcome you with a smile. Even if something is forgotten, they quickly get it to you and all is well. So thankful for this wonderful restaurant in our little town!
