" I've visited El Molino a few times and have mixed feelings. Sometimes the food is fantastic with great flavors but on other visits, it has been underwhelming. The last time, the tacos were somewhat cold and bland, while the beans tasted off. The staff were accommodating when I brought this up, but it still didn't improve the overall experience. I think they can do better, and I really want to like this place! " (*Curated Review*)

" Hands down, one of the best Mexican spots I’ve been to in a long time! Not only was the food delicious, but the prices were unbelievably reasonable. The carne guisada was flavorful and perfectly spiced. Plus, the homemade tortillas are a must-try! I enjoyed the laid-back vibe of the whole place—it honestly felt like I was at my grandma's kitchen. I'll be recommending this restaurant to all my friends! " (*Curated Review*)

" El Molino is one of those places that surprise you. You don’t expect much from a small, unassuming restaurant, but the food was wonderful. Everything I had was packed with flavor and freshness. I felt the service could’ve been a bit quicker, but the delightful taste made it worth the wait. I’d highly suggest their tacos if you’re ever in the area. " (*Curated Review*)

" If you are a fan of authentic Mexican cuisine, El Molino should be on your list. Their chilaquiles are simply fantastic. I also appreciated the generous serving sizes compared to other places. The atmosphere is casual and feels like home, which is nice. However, be prepared to wait during peak hours, especially on weekends. It's well worth it, but just something to consider. Can't wait for my next visit! " (*Curated Review*)

" I regret not discovering El Molino sooner! It's a small charming place that serves big flavors. The breakfast taco I had with chorizo was spot on—spicy but not overwhelming. The service was quick despite the crowd. I felt the prices were very reasonable for the large portions you receive. I will definitely be back to explore their menu further. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a genuine taste of Mexican food! " (*Curated Review*)

" When I first walked in, I was taken aback by how cozy and inviting El Molino feels. I went for the enchiladas on the recommendation of a friend and was seriously impressed. They were loaded with flavor, and the salsa complemented them perfectly. The only downside was that I struggled to find a seat due to the lunchtime rush. Still, it’s a lovely place to have a meal, and I can't wait to come back! " (*Curated Review*)

" Absolutely delicious! The pupusas are to die for! I also had the chance to try the tamales and they were spot on. It's so rare to find such authentic flavors in a restaurant. The environment is welcoming, and the staff were extremely helpful in guiding my choices. I wish they had more dessert options, but overall, it was a fantastic dining experience. Can't wait to go back for more! " (*Curated Review*)
