" Upon visiting El Limon last night, I was genuinely impressed by the authenticity of the food! We ordered the mixed platters, and everything was fantastic. Also, don't skip out on the house-made salsas; they elevate the meal! Service was friendly even though it was busy, and we were seated promptly. I could feel the warmth in the atmosphere as families and friends enjoyed their meals together. I can't wait to go back and enjoy more authentic meals! " (*Curated Review*)

" I love El Limon! Every visit feels like a mini-vacation to Mexico. Their tacos are so authentic, it reminds me of when I traveled there. The atmosphere is relaxed, and the decor is charmingly rustic. While service can occasionally be slow, it’s worth it for the delicious food! I also appreciate how they support local flavors and traditions. If you want genuine Mexican food at a reasonable price, this is the spot! " (*Curated Review*)

" Wow— El Limon is fantastic! The food here is simply authentic. I've tried the chicken taquitos and they were delightful! The owner came around to check on us which made the meal feel even more special. I wouldn't say the atmosphere is overly fancy, but it has a nice neighborhood vibe where you can feel at home. Be wary though: they only accept cash, which is a small hassle for some. Other than that, I loved every bit of it. " (*Curated Review*)

" Incredible experience overall! I visited El Limon last Friday and really enjoyed the fresh, authentic tacos. The atmosphere was relaxed, but the food was stellar! My friends and I made a point to share our dishes, and every single bite was rewarding. I had the shrimp enchiladas, and they were very flavorful! Some online reviewers said staff were unhelpful, but my experience was quite the opposite. Everyone I interacted with was welcoming! I will absolutely come back for my south-of-the-border food fix. " (*Curated Review*)

" El Limon is an experience to be had. Walking in, you're welcomed by the aromatic scents of spices, making your mouth water in anticipation. The first bite into their enchiladas was heavenly—generous portions that are flavor-packed and zero pretentiousness. I love the friendly yet rapid service here. It's a casual eatery with that homey feeling that keeps me coming back for more. It’s a great place for family dinners or quick takeout! " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited El Limon last week and I have to say, I was blown away! I ordered the enchiladas verdes and they were delightful - filled with tender chicken and smothered in a tangy sauce that just tasted so authentic. My partner got the beef fajitas, which came with fresh peppers and onions that were grilled to perfection. For dessert, we had flan, and wow, it was creamy and just the right amount of sweet. The staff was genuinely friendly and the ambiance had this nice family-run feel. We will definitely return soon because this place deserves all the praise! " (*Curated Review*)

" Just celebrated my birthday at El Limon with friends, and they didn’t disappoint! Despite it being busy, the service was swift and accommodating. My favorite dish was the sopes; they were hearty and flavorful, loaded with meat, beans, and a sprinkle of fresh cilantro. I also appreciated that they offer authentic sauces that complement all dishes well. Although we faced some challenges because they only accept cash, there’s an ATM onsite, which helps alleviate that. Overall, I felt the price and portion size were great! " (*Curated Review*)
