" I've had my fair share of tortas, but El Atoron serves the best I've ever had. The ingredients taste fresh and authentic. I chose the beef torta, and it was so big that I couldn't finish it! The salsa was spicy, just how I like it. The only drawback was that the place can get noisy at times, but the staff was friendly and attentive, making it a delightful experience overall! " (*Curated Review*)

" Honestly, I had high expectations after hearing so much hype, and El Atoron truly delivered! The tortas were massive, and I couldn't finish mine, which is saying something. Each bite was bursting with flavor, and the freshness of the ingredients was palpable. However, the service was a bit slow, likely due to the rush. I would absolutely recommend it to anyone craving authentic Mexican food, but perhaps it’s best to visit during off-peak hours! " (*Curated Review*)

" El Atoron, oh how you surprised me! I was just wandering by when the aroma of food caught my attention. I had the Torta de Milanesa which was stuffed with meat and flavor. The bread was toasted just right, creating a beautiful crunch. It's true that the menu does not include rice and beans, which I missed a bit, but the quality of their tacos was top-notch! I also appreciated the fast service. Can't wait to return and explore more dishes! " (*Curated Review*)

" Not what I expected after reading all the reviews. The tacos were decent but didn't burst with flavor as I hoped they would. They seemed a bit overpriced for what I received. The staff were friendly, and I enjoyed the vibe of the place, but I won't rush back any time soon. " (*Curated Review*)

" I was in the mood for something different and came by El Atoron to try their sopes. They were delicious but a bit on the small side for the price. The atmosphere was relaxed, and there were some local artworks that added a nice touch. I might return, but I would prefer a little bit more food for my buck next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" I'm a regular at El Atoron and they never disappoint! The consistency of their food is remarkable. I opt for the pork torta every time, and it's packed with flavor—definitely enough for two meals. My biggest tip? Come hungry because the portions are massive! The vibe is casual, and the staff have always been friendly and helpful. " (*Curated Review*)

" I'm always on the hunt for great Mexican food and decided to try El Atoron after seeing so many good reviews. The tortas were humongous! I had the pork one, and it was juicy and flavorful. The only downside was the wait time on a Saturday, which was longer than I expected. The staff was friendly, but they seemed overwhelmed. Still, the food made it worth it—definitely will be back!
