Highly recommend this restaurant, the food,.the service & the atmosphere were all amazing, Stopped by after a long day at work and was not disappointed. We will be coming back very for sure.

Honestly if you find yourself around Troy Ohio, go a little further to Covington. El Taco is attached to the gas station on 41 and the atmosphere is wonderful and the food is amazing. And if you know Mexican food and drinks it is the best horchata I've had. Definitely make a stop in there it will be worth it.

The service was okay. Only some workers need to work on their manners, but overall it was just okay. The food was very good. The food was warm. Everything in the food section was great. 😌 I really liked the murals. They are very pretty. 🤩 Overall, I think that this restaurant is an 4 out of 5 stars. 4.5 if I could👍
