El Camino: Scratch-Made Mexican Soul Food on NE 2nd Avenue

El Camino brands itself as "Mexican Soul Food & Tequila Bar" on NE 2nd Avenue in Delray Beach, building its menu around scratch-made components rather than shortcuts.

Scratch Tortillas, Brisket Nachos and a Standout Avocado Salad

The kitchen makes its own tortillas and sauces in-house, and its avocado salad draws consistent praise alongside tacos, burritos, enchiladas, brisket nachos, and guacamole and queso appetizers. That from-scratch approach runs through both the food and the bar's house-made sangritas.

A Loud, Lively Room Built Around a Curated Tequila Selection

The open dining room and bar have a reputation as one of Delray's noisier, more energetic hangouts, an atmosphere regulars treat as part of the draw rather than a downside. The bar leans into a curated selection of agave spirits and a wide range of craft and Mexican beers rather than a standard margarita menu, with an emphasis on fresh, local and organic ingredients where possible.
