" If you're looking for authentic Mexican food that's quick and tasty, El Burro Uno is a great choice! The queso was delicious, but the tacos stole the show for me. I tried both chicken and beef, and each was full of flavor. It was pretty busy when I went, but the staff was friendly and helpful. Next time, I might have to try the burritos everyone is raving about! " (*Curated Review*)

" As an avid Mexican food lover, I must say El Burro Uno has some of the best tacos I've had outside of California. The flavors remind me of home! The portions are generous, and the affordability makes it even better. However, sometimes the wait for food can take a bit longer, especially during peak hours. Regardless, the wait is completely worth it! Highly recommended for anyone looking for authentic Mexican food. Can't wait to go back! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had high hopes for El Burro Uno based on the reviews, but my experience was mixed. The atmosphere was charming, and the staff tried their best, but the food didn't quite hit the mark for me as I expected. I tried the burrito, and while the ingredients were fresh, I found it a bit bland. They offer many options for customization which is a plus, but I felt my meal lacked the authenticity I crave. " (*Curated Review*)

" Absolutely the best street-style tacos I’ve had in Pittsburgh! I loved the atmosphere, very vibrant and welcoming. The tacos were loaded with toppings, and they have an impressive range of salsas to choose from. I also appreciated the many vegetarian options available. It was a bit tight inside due to limited seating, so you might want to take your food elsewhere if you're planning on dining in. Still, I can't wait to come back! " (*Curated Review*)

" I’ve had the shrimp burrito at El Burro Uno a few times now, and they have a great balance of flavors. I can’t get enough of their sides too! I appreciate the homey, casual vibe of the restaurant, but it can be a bit cramped at times. Still, it’s definitely worth stopping by for lunch or takeout. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had an incredible experience at El Burro Uno! The carne asada tacos were bursting with flavor and authenticity. The staff was super friendly and welcoming, making the whole dining experience enjoyable. I wasn't sure about the takeout vibe at first, but the food tasted just as good at home. Plus, they had vegan options for my friend, which was a big hit! I'll definitely be back for more deliciousness. " (*Curated Review*)

" Every time I visit El Burro Uno, I'm always thrilled with the food. Everything feels so authentic, especially the tacos and burritos. The only downside is that it can be a bit loud when it's busy. The staff is always friendly and attentive. Highly recommend this place for anyone craving real Mexican flavors! " (*Curated Review*)
