" Molcajete has become my go-to spot for quick lunches during the week. The quality of the food is consistently high, especially their tacos loaded with fresh ingredients. I've also tried their salsas, and each one has a unique flavor that adds to the overall experience. Prices are very reasonable for the portion sizes. I do feel that the seating can get a bit crowded during peak hours, but it's really worth it. " (*Curated Review*)

" I love this place! Their takeaway is always on point, and the prices are fair. It's my go-to for some quick and delicious tacos. The flavors are vibrant, and you can taste the freshness in their ingredients. Their salsa verde is a personal favorite that I add generously to everything. I'm always satisfied when I eat here! " (*Curated Review*)

" A little disappointed with my visit to Molcajete recently. The tacos lacked the punch I expected from authentic Mexican fare. The staff seemed overwhelmed during peak hours, leading to a longer wait. While it wasn't a bad experience, I was hoping for more. I'll give it another chance someday but I hope it improves! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a taco plate from Molcajete the other day, and while the flavors were good, I felt that the fish in my tacos was a bit underwhelming. Maybe it was just an off day, as others seem to rave about their fish dishes. On the bright side, the service was genuinely friendly and helpful. I think I will give this place another try, especially since the salsas looked tempting. " (*Curated Review*)

" What a find! Molcajete brings the real deal when it comes to Mexican cuisine. The menu is extensive, and everything we ordered was fresh and vibrant. The burritos packed a punch of flavor, and I loved sampling various salsas with my chips. The staff's passion for their food truly shows. The atmosphere is casual and feels very inviting, perfect for a family outing. " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Molcajete after hearing wonderful things, and it did not disappoint! The highlight was the al pastor tacos. The pork was tender and flavorful, and I enjoyed every bite. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming. I do think they should expand their drink selections, as I was wishing for a nice horchata or agua fresca with my meal. " (*Curated Review*)

" I have mixed feelings about Molcajete. The flavors of the food were good, but the portions were smaller than I expected. The tacos were tasty but not particularly filling. I appreciated the staff, who were polite and helpful, yet the overall experience didn’t quite meet my expectations. I might be back but won't be rushing to do so. " (*Curated Review*)
