" I’ve had many meals at El Ausente, and it’s consistently great. The enchiladas taste like they came straight from a home kitchen, and the hospitality is always warm. It’s these little touches that keep me bringing my friends and family back over and over. " (*Curated Review*)

" If you're craving real Mexican food, look no further! El Ausente hits all the right notes with their traditional dishes. The salsas are outstanding, and I couldn’t get enough of the handmade tortillas. The service was excellent too. Definitely coming back! " (*Curated Review*)

" I can’t express how delicious the food is at El Ausente! The homemade tortillas are a must-try! I had a plate of enchiladas and felt transported to Mexico with each bite. The sauces were vibrant, and you can taste the love in their cooking. A special mention to the horchata; it's the best I've ever had! " (*Curated Review*)

" Yesterday's visit to El Ausente was not great. The food was underwhelming. I had high expectations after reading the reviews, but the flavor just wasn't there. The service was decent but wasn’t enough to make up for the food. I wouldn’t rush to return. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had dinner here last night, and I must say, the food was incredible! The flavors reminded me of my grandma’s cooking back in Mexico. Their horchata was refreshing. Just wish the portions were a bit bigger, but overall great place! " (*Curated Review*)

" Just had lunch at El Ausente, and it was great! The staff was friendly, and the food was flavorful. I had the chile rellenos, which were cooked perfectly. While the area might not be the best, the food more than makes up for it. Looking forward to trying their breakfast menu soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited El Ausente based on a friend's strong recommendation, and it was worth it! The carne asada burrito was delicious, but I found the beans a bit bland. However, everything else from the tacos to the salsa was flavorful. Good service and a laid-back vibe. " (*Curated Review*)
