" While the flavors of the food are usually spot on, I had a strange experience recently. I ordered a taco plate and found the chicken to be slightly undercooked. The manager was quite apologetic and offered to remake my order, but I couldn't shake the disappointment. Still, when everything is cooked right, the food is delicious—especially the carne asada fries! I'm hesitant but open to giving it another shot. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had the chance to try El Metate last weekend, and I have to say, I was thoroughly impressed! The breakfast burrito was massive, overflowing with delicious chorizo and eggs. The flavors were so authentic, it felt just like the ones I had when I visited Mexico. The salsa they provide on the side was perfect, giving an extra kick to every bite. Plus, the staff was friendly and quick, making the whole experience enjoyable. I'll definitely be returning! " (*Curated Review*)

" I'm a huge fan of breakfast burritos and El Metate is definitely a contender for one of the best around. The flavors are freshly made, and the portion is large enough to fill you up! The staff is typically friendly, but I've noticed it can be slow at peak times. I usually order takeout, and mostly it has been a positive experience! " (*Curated Review*)

" I have had my fair share of good and bad meals here. It's always kind of a gamble, but when they get it right, it's fantastic! Their breakfast burritos are huge and hearty, perfect for kicking off the day. But I’ve also had some mishaps with my orders not being correct. I still think it's a solid spot, especially for a quick breakfast. " (*Curated Review*)

" Overall, I have enjoyed my visits to El Metate. The menu is fairly extensive, with many traditional dishes that remind me of home. I especially recommend their tamales, but be aware they can take a bit longer to prepare. A hidden gem in the busy area! " (*Curated Review*)

" This place has been a solid choice for our family for years. The breakfast burritos are fantastic, but lately, we've noticed a slight decline in quality. The last few times, the burritos felt a bit greasy and not as fresh as before. However, the staff is always friendly and accommodating, which keeps us coming back. A bit more attention to detail, and this would be a five-star spot for sure! " (*Curated Review*)

" I hate to say it, but my last visit left much to be desired. The tacos I ordered were cold upon arrival and somewhat flavorless. I could tell the ingredients were fresh, but the execution was lacking. Hoping this was an off day for them. I usually have a good experience when I visit! " (*Curated Review*)
