El Mazatlan

Mammoth Cave National Park


It fits the Tex-Mex restaurant stereotype with its bright-hued paintings and lengthy menu of burritos, enchiladas and margaritas, but El Mazatlan does it well. The lateish hours, alcoholic beverages and handful of vegetarian options are particular perks in this area.

Seven other branches of the restaurant are scattered around south-central Kentucky.
