Review by Marlin Davis

Ely Taqueria is truly a gem in Charlotte! 🌮 The vibrant atmosphere made me feel right at home. I indulged in their incredible carnitas, which were perfectly crispy and packed with flavor - just like I remember from taquerias in Colorado. The three house-made salsas, particularly the green ones, were delightful!

I also tried the green pozole, and it was an instant favorite. The tender pork and spice blend gave it an authentic taste.

Don't miss their refreshing horchata or aqua fresca! This place is a feast for the senses - definitely returning soon! 🎉
