El Indio is a beloved, no-frills Mexican eatery where locals flock for hearty burritos and fluffy tortillas, steeped in history since 1940.
"The counter service at El Indio might make the place look like a fast food joint—but the vibe at this family-run Mexican restaurant is decidedly warm. Some say El Indio invented the taquito (the restaurant more judiciously claims they helped popularize the "little taco"). Veracity aside, theirs are worth trying. The crispy rolled tacos come in beef, chicken, or potato and can be topped with cheese, guacamole, or both. If that doesn't tickle you, there's an extensive menu of other dishes: enchiladas, tamales, burritos, quesadillas, nachos, chimichangas, beans and rice, and so on." - Archana Ram
"Though there are many Mexican options that have now eclipsed this India Street staple, which opened in 1940, El Indio claims to have contributed to culinary history by inventing the rolled taco." - Candice Woo
