El Gordo Restaurant is an absolute gem for anyone craving authentic Mexican fare! 🌮 The steak tacos were bursting with flavor, and the tostada de ceviche is hands down the best in town.

I rushed in for a quick bite and was pleasantly surprised by the fast, friendly service. The atmosphere is cozy and vibrant, perfect for solo dining or with friends.

Don’t forget to try their horchata - so refreshing! While I'd love a spicier salsa, the overall experience is fantastic. Great prices and huge portions make it my go-to spot! 🎉
