" I had high expectations for Sanchos based on the reviews, and while they were mostly met, there were a few distinct drawbacks. The tacos were indeed authentic and flavorful, particularly the carnitas, but I found them a bit pricey for such small portions. Additionally, the service felt somewhat hit or miss as our server forgot a couple of our drink orders, leading to a slower-than-expected experience. The outdoor patio was a lovely place to dine but be aware of the limited seating. Overall, I'd suggest trying it, but perhaps at a less busy time. " (*Curated Review*)

" I stumbled upon Sanchos one evening after hearing about it from a friend. The ambiance is fantastic, with upbeat music setting the tone for a fun night out. I particularly enjoyed the margaritas; they were refreshingly tart. The food was tasty; the fish tacos stood out to me for their freshness, though I would have preferred slightly larger portions. My friend had the nachos and didn’t hesitate to compliment the delicious sauce. Highly recommend this place for a casual hangout with friends! " (*Curated Review*)

" If you’re looking for a true taco experience, look no further than Sanchos! Every time I'm in town, I make a point to stop by. I particularly love their street tacos; the simplicity and flavors are fantastic. The fresh salsa adds a perfect crispy contrast to the soft tortillas. I also have to mention that the margaritas hit the spot! Great for unwinding after a long day. The only complaint I might have is the wait times can be substantial when it’s packed. But hey, good food is worth a little wait! " (*Curated Review*)

" Upon arriving at Sanchos, I was greeted with the delightful aromas of fresh cooking. My dining experience started off strong with the guacamole, which was notably fresh. I opted for the chicken tinga tacos, and while the flavor was delicious, I felt the size didn’t justify the price point. The atmosphere was fun, and it was clear many patrons were enjoying their time. Overall, a pleasant experience, but I’d advise those who are particularly hungry to order a few extra items! " (*Curated Review*)

" Relaxing atmosphere with vibrant energy! Sanchos has become my go-to location for taco nights with friends. They have a great way of making classic Mexican food seem fresh and exciting. The pulled pork nachos are a standout and worth ordering for your entire table! However, I did feel a bit rushed at times since it was quite busy during our visit. It's just part of the lively charm of this cantina. Definitely a place I will continue to revisit! " (*Curated Review*)

" Sanchos has this incredible patio where you can enjoy great food while taking in the views. The fish tacos were delightful, though I felt the portion sizes could use a bit of improvement. My friend ordered the nachos, and they blew us away with taste! The margaritas were refreshing, and they have a happy hour which is always a plus. Despite the busy nights, they manage to keep things running smoothly, which speaks volumes about the staff and service. I'll be coming back more often! " (*Curated Review*)

" First visit to Sanchos, and it was a mixed experience. The food was undeniably tasty, especially the carnitas tacos, but I was taken aback by how tiny the portions were for the prices. I expected more of a hearty meal based on the reviews. Our server was friendly but seemed stretched thin since we had to wait a while for our check at the end. I really liked the energy of the place and the decor. I would sit outside next time to enjoy the fresh air. " (*Curated Review*)
