"With freshly made corn tortillas and a variety of tortas to choose from, El Sabor De Eli’s take on Mexican cuisine is an exercise in celebrating the wonderful world of street food found throughout the country. This includes hurraches, tlayudas, gorditas, and plenty of tacos. But you’ll also find other dishes here, like fried rice, loaded fries tossed with steak, Mexican shrimp cocktail, and even steak and chicken Philly cheesesteaks." - Alex Leo-Guerra
This is my family’s go-to restaurant just about every Friday night. The food is so delicious and you can taste the freshness in each meal. The thing that won me over though was their service. I had been on hold for a good long minute and hung up after a while, and to my surprise the employee returned my phone call and apologized for the long wait. That showed great integrity and respect. Will definitely continue to support them. Plus you can’t beat their authenticity.

Got Tacos and Fajitas being our first trip, but check out the pictures, I'll post some myself, they have phillys, burgers, wings, and so much more. I had to take a few pictures of the menu because I have to come back 😩 and slowly make my way through this delicious menu 😋
Update: The hot sauce alone is worth your trip out here

This is the worst Mexican restaurant in the world!!!! Food is tasteless!! Best thing on the menu is the crackers, because they are sealed.

Ordered via UberEats. This was the absolute worst food ever! I’m agreeing with the other reviewer who said somebody faking these 4 & 5 star reviews. No pictures this time because we trashed the food. The bread on the torta was fresh though. The steak was tough and flavorless. My sopes were gross. And I mean gross. The tomatoes, lettuce and sour cream were fresh. Basically the veggies were fresh, the meat was dry, overcooked and NOT seasoned. I’m talking Sahara desert dry and I didn’t like that. This is definitely for you if you like bland and tough meat. Never have I experienced unseasoned Mexican food.

First visit... definitely NOT my last!!! I absolutely devoured the Chicken Nachos and they had "the works!". After my first taste they never stood a chance😋 I gave those Nachos "the bizness"😂 And I thought when I asked for Tacos they would be the regular hard shell, but Nope!! I was pleasantly surprised and it's all good - love churizo!!! The service was good too, Dude was very nice and helpful.

My first time going here, but definitely won't be my last. For a small establishment, it packed a big punch. My Cubana sandwich was extremely big and delicious. The steak, chicken, and shrimp tacos on corn tortilla were the bomb also. Definitely left with to go plates. You know you're eating authentic Mexican food when you see the restaurant packed with Mexicans ordering their own food.

A real hidden gem. We decided to try this place since it had high reviews in the area and it lived up to expectations. It’s a small establishment and the employees are very friendly. I got the three tacos combo (pollo) and the tacos and beans were amazing. The rice was a little dry for my taste, but overall it was a great experience especially for the price.

Oh my God what a treat, I'm from Vegas and Googled this place. I'm so glad I did. I got combination fried rice and a Lengua taco. The rice is very flavorful... delicious and the taco was the same. I can't say enough about the service, it was outstanding. It deserves 5 stars.

Gots to love a good authentic family run restaurant.
Walked in music playing. Some crazy reality show playing on the tv and young employee handing out condiments.
Staff was friendly and accommodating.
I ordered asada quesadilla, 2 burritos one carne Asada and one Pollo. Yep street tacos: pollo and al pastor. Total price $32
Everything was delicious and seasoned to perfection and it pleased my Gma that the spicy sauce was actually spicy lol

It only took my third visit here to find out that this pack of racists don't
appreciate your business and don't want you there if you're black. That's
unfortunate because they're latino. All I get is awful service, and cheated
out of my change. I will never eat there again and don't recommend it!

Such delicious tacos! Remind me of California. Authentic and perfectly seasoned. The corn tacos themselves are delicious! Recommend the pastor, pollo, chorizo tacos, shrimp quesadilla, pastor sope!

Delicious carne asada tacos. I loved the tortillas omg. I also tried the carne asada gordita, very Delicious. Love the spicy and mild salsa they give you on the side. Definitely the best tacos I've had in metro Atlanta thus far.

Food tasted stale, I had the chicken enchiladas and there was barely any chicken. My boyfriend had the fish tacos and the taco itself was dry. Would not necessarily recommend.
