My family and I are regulars here, and we can’t say enough about how delicious the food is. Everything is always fresh and flavorful. The staff is incredibly kind and professional, which makes the experience even better. We will definitely continue to be regulars!

not a lot of space but man do i hope they expand! we had GREAT food here and I would take a trip down all the way from ny (we’re like 30-40 min away haha) for this- especially catering!!! my friends and i all got different tacos and main dishes (one even got the lunch special without realizing all the accompaniments wow). Food came out hot and delicious after a small wait and it was worth it. Price was great for the portion size; no one could finish their food lol! The appetizer-y options were great to snack on, I brought yuca home bc I couldn’t leave without it (EXCELLENT decision) and if i hadn’t been embarrassed i probably would’ve indulged in the half or whole roasted chickens too! I miss those from when I was in south america!
stellar establishment- as soon as im down there again, ill grab takeout to bring home ❤️

⭐ A Big Thank You to Eli’s Kitchen! ⭐
We catered from Eli’s Kitchen for my sister’s baby shower, and the food was absolutely amazing! The owner and staff were so friendly and professional, and the restaurant itself is always spotless. The portions were generous, beautifully served, and every guest raved about how delicious everything was. Thank you once again for helping make our celebration so special we’ll definitely be back

I come here multiple times a week on my lunch break, sometimes with other people and everyone loves it. Everything they serve is delicious and they really take care of you. The sides, empanadas, tacos and platters are all amazing, Ive actually tried most of the menu. I cant recommend them enough, the food is delicious, feels like it came from home

Amazing flavors, great selections, can’t go wrong!
My son has been stopping at Eli’s for a post-workout meal for several years now. It started because of the incredible empanadas (huge, well stuffed, meaty, and incredibly tasty) which we rated higher than any other empanada place we’ve visited. Then expanded to their lunch menu, where the pernil with rice and beans is his go-to post-workout meal. I love that he’s eating clean, getting his protein, complex carbs, amino acids, and avoiding junk food. He loves that he’s eating high-flavor and indulges in the sauces of their other dishes (including the beef and chicken). Their menu is full of irresistible Latin tastes. You never leave hungry, sorry, or heavy after a meal at Eli’s.

I honestly cannot believe how unprofessional this restaurant is. Every time I call, the staff answers the phone in the rudest way possible, as if they’re doing me a favor by even picking up. When I went in person, I waited over 30 minutes for a simple drink and the worst part is, they openly told me they had “more important orders” than just mine. Imagine being told to your face that your order doesn’t matter because it’s “just a drink.” That’s the kind of disrespect this place shows to paying customers.
When I finally got the drink, it wasn’t even worth the wait. After drinking it, I ended up vomiting and getting food poisoning. This was the final straw. Not only do they treat customers horribly, but the food and drinks are clearly unsafe.
If you want to be ignored, disrespected, and then sick afterward, this is the place for you. Otherwise, save yourself the time, money, and frustration. Absolutely unacceptable, and I am furious that I wasted my time here.
