" I have been a loyal customer of El Indio since I was a kid, and I can confidently say I still love their carne asada burritos! They are packed with flavor and the red salsa is absolutely delicious. The atmosphere might not be for everyone since they only have outdoor seating, but if you enjoy a casual vibe, it's perfect. Just be prepared to bring cash, as they don't accept cards. I recommend the carne asada fries too! Overall, it's always been one of my go-to spots for authentic Mexican food. " (*Curated Review*)

" Disappointed with my recent experience at El Indio. Despite all the good reviews, the carne asada burrito was underwhelming and lackluster. I've had much better at other places. The service was quick but I felt hurried. The outdoor seating area was nice, but it could use some sprucing up. I don't think I would rush back anytime soon unless some things change. " (*Curated Review*)

" El Indio is one of those places you hear about and finally get to visit; let me tell you, it did not disappoint! Their carne asada burrito was stuffed with juicy meat and topped with incredibly fresh salsa. The prices are fair, and you get a decent portion. Just remember it's cash only! I did see they have outdoor seating which is fine for summer days. I plan to return and try their breakfast options next. " (*Curated Review*)

" El Indio doesn’t disappoint! The carne asada is well-seasoned, and the flavors in the tacos are top-notch! The only downside I noticed was that they tend to make their burritos a bit on the smaller side, but if you ask nicely, they might hook you up with extra salsa! The outdoor setting gives off a nice chill feel while you enjoy your food. I would recommend checking them out for a quick bite! " (*Curated Review*)

" El Indio is one of the best spots for tacos in Escondido! Their carne asada fries are a must-try; they are simply delicious! I appreciated that the portion sizes were generous and packed with flavor. The cash-only policy is a bit of a pain, but it’s manageable if you come prepared. Overall, I would definitely recommend this place to anyone who’s looking for some good Mexican food. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had high hopes for El Indio, but unfortunately, it didn’t live up to my expectations. The food was alright but lacked the authentic flavors I was aiming for. Surprisingly the prices were quite high for the portion sizes. Maybe I went in with the wrong mindset, as the reviews seemed quite positive, but I felt like it missed the mark in consistency. I likely won't be returning unless things change. " (*Curated Review*)

" I can't express how much I love El Indio! Their tacos and burritos remind me of the delicious flavors I grew up with. I recently had the shrimp burrito, and it was to die for! The outdoor seating might not be for everyone, but I kind of like it since it gives a laid-back feel. Always quick service, and I appreciate the friendly staff. Cash only is a slight bummer, but it não more than worth the amazing food they serve! " (*Curated Review*)
