" You can definitely tell that they prepare their dishes with love. The breakfast items are delightful! However, the wait can be a bit long during busy hours. Their salsa is homemade, bursting with flavor, and simply a must-have! It’s a worthy spot for anyone in the Del Rio area looking for authentic Mexican food. " (*Curated Review*)

" Good restaurant overall, but it can't compete with some of the top-tier places for authenticity. The tacos were decent, but they seem to stick to a milder flavor profile. I would love to see them spice things up a bit. The service was friendly, and they definitely have a loyal following. I might come back to give it another shot. " (*Curated Review*)

" Having breakfast at Dona Elvira is a treat. I love how homey it feels. The prices could be better, but the quality makes up for it. I've tried their tacos and lunch plates, and I enjoyed them all. Service can be a little overwhelmed at times, especially on weekends, but the food makes it worth the wait. I'm already looking forward to my next meal! " (*Curated Review*)

" The experience was good overall, but there are a few things they could improve on. The atmosphere is cozy, but I felt the service was a little slack during peak hours. The food itself was tasty, especially the tortillas, but the wait was on the longer side. I would still recommend trying it at least once. The authenticity of the dishes is commendable. " (*Curated Review*)

" A cozy little restaurant serving some of the best breakfast tacos. The ginger might not work as much in a breakfast taco, but overall, they were great. Caution: be prepared to pay with cash. The service was a bit lacking in speed, but the tacos made up for it with their delicious flavors. I will definitely visit again! " (*Curated Review*)

" Absolutely love Dona Elvira! The breakfast tacos are simply out of this world, especially the carne guisada. You can really taste the homemade quality in every bite. Yes, the prices are a bit higher than fast food, but the portion sizes are generous, and the flavors are authentic. Service is always prompt, and the staff is incredibly welcoming. It’s become my go-to breakfast spot whenever I'm in Del Rio! " (*Curated Review*)

" What a fantastic little find! Dona Elvira has the charm of a family-owned restaurant, and the people there genuinely care about your experience. The breakfast burritos were enormous and very filling. I couldn’t believe how great the flavor was, especially compared to some more commercial places. Although it gets a bit crowded, the food makes the wait worthwhile. I've already told friends they need to check this place out! " (*Curated Review*)
