My husband and I visited El Carlos for the first time to celebrate his birthday, and what a wonderful experience it was! The atmosphere struck the perfect balance between chic and welcoming, feeling elevated without being exclusive. The food was fantastic, with thoughtfully sized portions that left us completely satisfied. We each ordered a margarita, and they were full of flavor and absolutely worth savoring. Valet parking was also incredibly convenient and easy to navigate, making the entire experience seamless from beginning to end. We're already looking forward to our next visit and are excited to make El Carlos a regular part of our dining rotation!

Excellent evening with my wife. Great food, great service, and ambience. Please add some type of coffee/espresso to your menu. After dinner, it is welcomed and it goes well with cigars.

Eledi is the first concept from the team at Oh Hi! Hospitality. Chef AQ and her culinary team have been busy with research and testing new menu items while Carlos Marquez, our Beverage Director, has been perfecting some great cocktails. Victor Rojas will procure an all Mexican wine list that will round out all of the options at Eledi. While we are not quite open, we have officially signed a lease for our location and will be giving sneak peeks of our menu and offerings at some Pop-Ups over the next few months. Check back often and be sure to join our mailing list to stay up to date on our next event and when we plan to open our restaurant.
