“The food was awesome. The staff were great too! We will be back!“

“We were in-between a tournament and had 30 people in our party they sat us within 20 minutes and had food to us very quickly, barrel house and catch a fire pizza wouldn't take our party. The only issue we had was constantly being asked if we wanted a beer or a shot. We had a soccer team with us and we told them no multiple times. Overall Food was great, and it was larger portions than regular Mexican places.“

“I'm a life long Dayton resident and used to love Elsa's. I wish now the Sheetz was going in. The quality of food has gone so far downhill this was my last trip to Elsas. Tonight the refried beans were dry and totally inedible. I mean beans hit with a masher and nothing else. No flavoring. No seasoning. BLAND Nachos had no salsa or sauce of any kind. Chicken, cheese, and dry beans. Chicken had no flavoring, no seasoning. Plain chicken. It was awful. And happy hour? What a joke. .70 cents off drink prices? I'd rather spend my money at Taco Bell.“

“very good..................“

“If you want the most rich and flavorful ice cream and gelato, come try theirs… it is the bomb and I hate to say it but puts Rita’s to shame. Their walking tacos, loaded fries are great. Some very interesting Mexican treats including mini pancakes covered in fresh fruit and sauce, ramen Mexican style, fresh fruit dishes, elote—corn on the cob smothered in mayo and cheese—try it! Super friendly place as well. I am looking forward to trying all the things that I have not mentioned that they offer. Check it out…“

“This was my first time and I will try it again. I'd like there was option for sauces to get them on the side instead of ober the food, just in case.

Vegetarian options: Rice, beans, fajita, corn, guacamole, lettuce, onion, grilled red pepper. But unlike Chipotle, we can't order all of them together since the options are limited to 6 only.“
