" Honestly, I was blown away by this place! The elotes are a must-try. I remember having something similar in Mexico, and they hit the mark perfectly here. The only downside was my interaction with one staff member who seemed a bit rushed, but that didn’t ruin the experience for me. I highly recommend the agua de mango as well; it's refreshing and pairs perfectly with the elotes. " (*Curated Review*)

" Overall, my experience was good but had its holes. The food was decent, especially the mangonada, but the elotes didn't meet the mark for authenticity. My expectations were probably too high. The service was friendly enough but could use a bit of training. The place was clean which was a plus. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a mixed experience. The elotes I ordered were nice but didn’t have that authentic street food quality I was seeking. They were a bit bland compared to my expectations. The service was alright but not overly friendly. I think next time, I will try something different on the menu. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had an average experience at Hay Elotes. The elotes tasted fine but didn't stand out as anything special. I expected more based on the reviews, and while I enjoyed my time, it's not a place I would rush back to. The staff was pleasant, and it’s a cute little spot, so I’ll give it another try in the future, hoping for a better experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" A cozy spot for a quick snack! The elotes were delicious, and I appreciated the variety of toppings available. Service was quick, and it was nice to have outdoor seating. I would recommend it to anyone craving Mexican street food vibes. Definitely worth checking out! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had high expectations for Hay Elotes but unfortunately, it fell short for me. The elotes were decent but didn’t have that authentic flair I was hoping for. The service was okay; the staff seemed a bit distracted. On a positive note, the place was clean and had a nice outdoor seating area that was pleasant to enjoy my snack. Overall, not a bad experience, but I might explore other options next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" Finally went to Hay Elotes after hearing so much about it! I wasn't disappointed! The elotes had a wonderful flavor, and the agua fresca was refreshing. The staff was friendly and made the whole experience pleasant. Perfect spot to grab a quick snack and enjoy good food! " (*Curated Review*)
