Sinaloan food is ideal for groups with different eating habits and for families. Diners can order combinations of different dishes to match their appetites and tastes. There is a combination for everyone. Children love the food and eating it with their hands. Service at El Tunel is efficient.
Food preparation takes a bit of time since each item is prepared for each order.
There is a comfortable and leisurely atmosphere. Folks visit with each other. Some look at the books available for loan or the photographs from Mexican movies hanging on the walls. Classic Mexican music comes from the speakers clearly but at background volume. The bustle, the music, and the activity in the open kitchen visible to everyone give a level of moderate anticipation to the wait for the food.
