It's a small shop, family owned, the family worked there is so nice and they will come talk to you like a family. It's simple and fresh ingredients, super authentic. I love the menudo, very flavorful and it's all you can eat in the store. Wish I have space for another bowl! read more

Some moms and I were throwing an End of Year Class party for our kids at our church this morning. On Tuesday, I placed a large pick up order for breakfast tacos for Sunday. My order was ready for me when I arrived and it was skillfully and accurately executed. The assortment of breakfast tacos were a hit, especially the bacon and egg. They were hot and tasty and Elenas also provided large containers of green and red salsas. I provided a bowl of shredded cheddar for those who wanted to add cheese to theirs. I'm so glad I didn't go with my initial idea of Taco Cabana. I appreciate the candid Yelp reviews that warned me of their inability to be dependable. Elenas is the real deal. Homemade flour tortillas and salsas, and they are dependable. I will be back to try some of their lunch items with my family as well as place more large breakfast taco orders for future morning events. Mother Elena and Daughter Evelyn are simply beautiful and honest people. read more

The food was okay - I was expecting more flavor. For those prices - I should've just gone to Rosa's Cafe

Fresh off the plane in Dallas. First things first is food! Went to Elena's Taqueria for Mexican food and was not disappointed. The Gordita was fresh, full of meat, flavorful, all the f descriptors lol. Staff were very friendly and service was quick. Will be back to try some of the other menu items soon. read more

This Hidden hole in the wall is a MUST! I am a regular for their menudo which is simply perfection. She even asked if I wanted hominy and the pata, foot, in there. The tripe was mostly in bite size pieces and had great flavor, which isn't usually the case at most plac The refried beans weren't greasy and had great flavor and smooth consistency. Breakfast tacos were generously filled with eggs and many other delicious choices. This is a must try!!! read more

I haven't ate there yet, but I was trying to find the prices of the food, found out that their prices has changed a lot from what they have on the picture! I don't know why they don't fix the prices on the picture unless they want you to believe that it's cheaper than any of other place. And that is so wrong. It's a shame.Elena's!!!!! read more

Food and service was excellent, they even had fresh squeezed orange juice which was really good and wife was happy about that. It's close to our Son's house and we'll be back next time we're down visiting him. I had the Migas and everyone else got tacos and we were all pleased with our choices. read more

Great breakfast tacos this morning. Actually all their food is top notch. They can make almost anything you want. Super Nachos are tasty, the enchiladas are very good. They have fajitas served hot and fresh. Everybody speaks English (I'm a gringo ) and are very friendly and run a clean little restaurant. I recommend them for your Mexican fix. read more

Great tacos, and agua frescas. Everything tastes super fresh and homemade! The owners are very kind!

Truly a hole in the wall. Love their breakfast tacos, tamales, and freshly squeezed orange juice. They were great with service as well - kindly offered me a sample of the agua fresca and it was delicious! Thoroughly impressed and we will be back... maybe even again today! Yum read more

I am always up for a hole in the wall taqueria, so when in the area and hungry for lunch, Hubby & I decided to try Elena's. It is a very small place with limited seating, but we snagged a just vacated booth and put our order in for two tacos each-two al pastor for him and one al pastor and one pollo for me. The menu was in English and it was spoken by the staff well, but the language most spoken around us was Spanish (good sign IMO). The al pastor was served street taco style and was tender and flavorful, if a tad salty. I was surprised to get cheese and lettuce on the pollo taco, but it was quite tasty-I enjoyed the meat more than the al pastor. The green sauce was flavorful and spicy-just the way I like it! Two tacos and a drink each for less than $12 makes a girl happy and I would recommend. read more

The food is amazing! Coming from San Antonio and having a love for some great Tex mex food DFW lacks the quality of it. Elena's is the place to go for great Mexican food, this place makes amazing food with amazing flavor. It's a small mom and pop place and provides great welcoming environment! I love coming here for breakfast to go or taking my out of town friends to visit. read more

One of the greatest gems in Farmers Branch. This is my go-to place for breakfast tacos!...as well as their selection of traditional Mexican food. My favorite thing to get there is the green chilaquiles, be careful they're a little spicy but that's how I like mine. They have some of the best green salsa, it has a rich texture and nice kick. Its a really unassuming place, you can tell they cook their food with love. It's a family owned business, you can find the owner there regulary, very friendly environment. read more

If you want dependable and consistent quality...come here. I got the carnitas guisadas. They were beef and not pork as I'm used to getting. Still good nonetheless. I'm recommended this little hole as many others do from the look of a packed parking lot. Next time I'm trying the happy hour breakfast plates. 7-10 y'all!! read more

A very solid place! I had their burrito and it was pretty filling for a good price and the taste was amazing. The building does not have a lot of seating but the food and service was exceptional and I will definitely be going back again! read more

Was so glad to find Elena's on my trip to Dallas. It's a small spot offering quality homemade Mexican food including delicious homemade flour tortillas. Prices are fantastic as well. $1.50 breakfast tacos before 10am. All this plus incredibly friendly and attentive service. I'll be back for sure! read more

Very friendly people serving large portions of excellently prepared and tasty food at reasonable prices. What else do you want? If you're scared of the "hole in the wall" look then you'll miss out on some of the best comida mexicana in town. It's small so be prepared. You may want to snag a to go order if you live close by. Either way, you won't be disappointed. I love the chorizo con huevos. My wife loves the chilaquiles with the salsa verde. Eggs were cooked perfectly, too. By the way, we aren't hispanic so don't be scared. They are nice to everyone. read more

Elena's Taqueria has been a great find for my wife and I. I've made many large breakfast orders for our auto dealerships and they never disappoint, always on time and always delicious. It's one of North Dallas best kept secrets! The carne guisada was delicious and tacos are excellent! JV read more

Wow I was impressed they make actual real legit Mexican food. I'm from California and great tacos are hard to find since I moved to DFW. but I found a place now ! read more

Came here early in the morning for a quick breakfast and the food was delicious. They were very quick even with there being customers sitting to dine in... assuming before going into work. They are very hands on and made sure we were taken care of. read more

Excellent food, I got the Carnitas plate. great service. Friendly staff. Seating area is limited so I'd recommend going on off hours if you are in a rush on your lunch break. Definitely recommend! read more

This place was amazing best mexican food I've had in a while the Barbacoa and lengua were amazing the chicken was good next time I'll try to get the carnitas apparently it's the best seller. Will definitely come back!! read more

My favorite go place for breakfast taco's. Since the "Covid19" scare I have been forced to look for new places close to eat. I work at Sam Pack's Five Star Ford and several people I work with go by there for lunch. Come to find out they have than is on the menu at the counter. So far I have had the sour cream enchiladas, the beef and chicken quesadillas and of course the breakfast taco's (served all Day.) A coworkers love the beef stew tacos and the carne guisada. It's a great neighborhood taqueria and I don't want them going out of business. Go get ya some ! ! ! read more

Amazing food! Their Al pastor is so good and their chips and salsa too!! They're so quick at making online orders too which I recommend ordering through their website. They've always been so nice when we pick up. read more

Always a wonderful meal at a good price. The owner is fantastic and goes out of her way to provide a great experience. The chorizo is fantastic read more

Love love love this place, food is right on the money, good price, quantity. Service ladies and the owner are very sweet and inviting, after my trips-they now know my order. Love this little spot. read more

I tried this place for their flour tortillas and was greatly disappointed. I don't think these were actually homemade as they claimed, but they were not good and did not look how they do in the photos on here. Bistec was the only meat with flavor, but not a good one. Lengua had zero flavor. I would've liked to have seen a red salsa to go on it. Barbacoa was soo greasy and the flavorless tortilla did not help. Menudo, at best was meh. It looked like this place has its regulars. Maybe their tastebuds need to venture out. read more

Had lengua, chorizo and egg tacos very delicious! I may become a regular here, be warned the salsa is ....at your own risk! LoL read more

Great great place. Very small seating but totally with it. I would wait outside for a seat if that's what it took. Service is great, the owner cares and is super amazing. We never had tongue, she gave us a sample, it was bunch better than I expected. This is authentic Mexican food. I've had nearly everything on the menu, it's all great. read more

Food was not fresh, it appeared to either had been cooked day prior or way earlier. The eggs looked dry and clumped together, the potatoes were gross and nowhere near fresh, the beans were clumpy and gross. The best part was the tortillas which appeared fresh. Would not return read more

1,000 IOUs to Joe for posting a picture of his Huevos Rancheros. Elaine's is a fantastic find. Warm and cozy inside. Very friendly service, spicy and delicious homemade food in a spotless setting. The tortillas, salsas, and chips are homemade. Hell even the coffee is good. I will return to try the $3.99 enchilada daily special read more

I love my neighborhood taquerias! There are SO many to choose from in North Dallas, and almost all of them have something to recommend. Most, Like Elena's, are tiny, hole in the wall spots, tucked into strip malls around Carrollton, Addison & Farmers Branch. Located about a block off I35, Elena's makes their tortillas (corn & flour) in house - and both are wonderful! I've only had the breakfast tacos here, but every combination I have tried - potato, bacon, chorizo - has hit the mark. And let's talk about that homemade salsa verde they're serving up! It's a little different every time I come in, but the flavor is always incredible. Just remember though: it's a small restaurant, fills up fast and they only have a few people on staff. But trust me, it's worth the wait. read more
