El Tio's Restaurant is a hidden gem on University Ave! 🌟 I stopped by for the breakfast burrito and opted for ham, eggs, tater tots, and cheese. At just $9, it was a massive, flavorful delight!

Next time, I might skip the sour cream to keep those tater tots crispy. The red hot sauce added a nice kick, and the service was friendly and prompt.

The casual atmosphere and family-friendly vibe made it feel like home. Can't wait to return for the milkshakes - I've heard amazing things! Highly recommend this spot for a hearty meal! 😋

I stumbled upon this cozy spot for breakfast and ordered the ham and egg burrito with tater tots. It was hearty and flavorful, though I’d skip the sour cream next time! The red hot sauce was a delightful touch. Can’t wait to bring my daughter for milkshakes next time! 🌟
