" While I enjoyed my tacos at Tacos El Indio, I did find it a bit cramped during my visit. There were several people waiting for orders, and it made the experience slightly overwhelming. The tacos tasted great, and I appreciated the unique spin they had on traditional recipes. I’d still recommend it, but maybe during off-peak hours! " (*Curated Review*)
