" Had a disappointing experience here. While the staff was friendly, I found the food lacking in authenticity. The enchiladas tasted like they came from a can, and the beans were overcooked. The place had a nice vibe, but given the price, I expected better food. Might give them another try in the future. " (*Curated Review*)

" Great spot with delicious tacos and an inviting atmosphere! Cocktails were refreshing, and I will definitely be back for the shrimp tacos. We brought friends, and everyone had a fantastic time. I love supporting local businesses, and this one is a gem! " (*Curated Review*)

" We had a not-so-great experience tonight. I ordered the carne asada plate, which was okay, but nothing to write home about. The flavors didn't stand out, and I felt it was overpriced for the quality. The service was decent, but we were just a little let down overall. " (*Curated Review*)

" If you are looking for an authentic Mexican dining experience, look no further! The flavors at El Mezcalito remind me of home. Every dish we tried was fantastic, particularly the al pastor tacos. The staff was extremely attentive and knew the menu well. Can’t wait to come back and try more special dishes! " (*Curated Review*)

" Absolutely loved our dinner here! The guacamole was fresh and tasty, the service impeccable, and the ambiance just what we were looking for. I highly recommend the mole enchiladas—they're to die for! Can't wait to come back for another great meal. " (*Curated Review*)

" El Mezcalito offers cozy vibes and good food. The enchiladas I had were tasty, especially with the mole sauce! Wish they had more vegetarian options, but what I had was beautifully presented and delicious. Overall, I enjoyed my time there, and the service was spot-on. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a wonderful evening here with my family! The place is so welcoming. Our server recommended the ceviche, and it was the best I’ve had. Refreshing and well-seasoned. The rest of the meal was also top-notch, and we really enjoyed the live music that was playing. Can’t wait to come back! " (*Curated Review*)
