I had an amazing experience at El Grullo Restaurant! 🌮 The carne asada super quesadilla was a standout - packed with flavor and loaded with avocado, crema, and pico right inside! The quick service was a refreshing touch, especially since they're open late, perfect for those hunger pangs after work.

The atmosphere was casual and welcoming, and the free parking was a bonus. Plus, the friendly staff made me feel right at home. I can't wait to go back and try their famous menudo next! Highly recommend it! ⭐️
