" Such an awesome find! The prices are great for the portions. My favorite has to be the chicken tacos! So juicy and delicious! It's cash only, but they have an ATM on site, which makes it easier. I recommend to anyone looking for tasty authentic tacos! " (*Curated Review*)

" Just a heads up: the ambiance is not fancy, but the food is what you come for! I had the pork tacos and they were some of the best I've had. Very authentic flavors, and the portion was just right. If only they could improve a bit on the cleanliness, it would be top-notch. " (*Curated Review*)

" One of my favorite quick spots in town! Their steak tacos are very authentic, and they always fill them well, making them worth the price. The dining area isn't much, but the food makes up for it. I highly recommend this place if you're craving Mexican food. " (*Curated Review*)

" Elio's is seriously the place to go when you're craving authentic Mexican street food! The tacos are large and come with a variety of fresh toppings. The service was friendly, and my order was ready quickly. Perfect for a quick meal break during the workday! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had high hopes for Elio's based on the reviews, but I was slightly disappointed. The pork tacos I ordered lacked seasoning and tasted a bit bland. The service was quick, and the staff was nice, but the food fell short for me. I may give it another shot in the future, though, since I've heard great things about their tamales. " (*Curated Review*)

" Elio's is a staple for anyone working nearby. The price for the quality of food is unbeatable. I usually go for their carnitas tacos which are always a winner. There’s often a line at lunchtime, but they manage everything efficiently. Would love if they could stay open a little longer in the evenings! " (*Curated Review*)
