AI Summary
Friendly, welcoming service with delicious cakes and highly praised savory items (tamales and gorditas) that are fresh, hot and melt-in-your-mouth. Occasional long waits for freshly cooked items and some tamales can be underfilled and fall apart.

The staff at Elvira's was so welcoming! I bought the red velvet and strawberry cake slices, and both were delicious. The strawberry was easily my favorite, so I’ll definitely be back for another slice soon.

I ordered 2 dozen tamales 🫔 😋 but I had to wait 45 minutes till they were done coming out of pot, they were so fresh that they were falling apart as I was trying to eat them. They practically melted in my mouth as I was enjoying while they were still 🔥 hot. I just wish they would put more meat on it before they wrap them up to cook.
