" Visited for lunch and ordered the taco salad. It was okay, but very basic compared to other places. The service was attentive, but I expected a bit more flavor from my salad. I may give it another chance, but I’ll stick to the classic tacos next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" My husband and I usually come here on a date night. The staff is friendly, and the atmosphere is romantic. The chiros were delightful! Working our way through the dessert menu is a fun challenge, and everything is delicious. Definitely our go-to place! " (*Curated Review*)

" El Con has been a staple for me and my family. The dishes taste homemade and remind me of my grandmother's cooking. The flavors are vibrant, and every bite feels authentic. I've never had a bad experience with service; the staff is always friendly and quick. If you’re looking for some great Tex-Mex, this should be your first choice! " (*Curated Review*)

" The real standout here is the salsa. It’s some of the best I’ve ever had. I also appreciated the variety of options on the menu. Overall, I would highly recommend it, but just make sure to keep an eye on portion sizes; some were quite generous while others seemed a bit on the small side. " (*Curated Review*)

" Decent food, but I’ve had better. My chicken burrito was a bit dry and lacked seasoning. The services were fast, but the ambiance felt too cramped for my taste. I guess it’s a good spot for a quick meal but not somewhere I’d spend a lot of time. " (*Curated Review*)

" Okay, so I had high hopes, but the food just didn’t impress me. The salsa was bland, and the tacos were mostly lettuce. The service was fine, but unfortunately, I wouldn’t recommend it based on my experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" As my first visit here, I was pleasantly surprised. The variety on the menu was impressive and really catered to different tastes. The chicken fajitas are a must-try! The only downside was the slight wait during the peak hours but totally worth it for the food. " (*Curated Review*)
