" When I visited Ray's, I was craving something hearty, and their chicken flautas delivered! They were crispy, fluffy, and packed with flavor. The only drawback was the long wait time at dinner. I'd still say the food was worth it, and I’d be eager to come back! " (*Curated Review*)

" The carne asada burrito was fabulous! Just the right amount of spice, and the beans were superb. Thankfully, I didn't have to wait long to get my order. I’ll be coming back soon to try their famous tacos next. This place is definitely gaining a fan! " (*Curated Review*)

" I'm a big fan of Ray’s! The fish tacos are perfection—crispy and packed with flavor. The overall ambiance is relaxed and friendly, and I love the vibrant decor. I often dine here during lunch, and while the service can be a bit slow, it doesn’t diminish my overall enjoyment. " (*Curated Review*)

" My most recent experience at Ray's was disappointing. I ordered carne asada tacos, and while the flavor was decent, they skimped on the meat. Considering the cost, I expect a more generous portion. The ambiance was nice, and service was acceptable, but the food left much to be desired. " (*Curated Review*)
