" Hands down the best Mexican restaurant I've been to! The flavors are authentic and every dish I've tried has been incredible. I personally love the molcajete for two; it's a feast with so much variety, and the price is unbeatable. The staff was friendly and they even checked on us regularly, which made our experience more enjoyable. The décor is beautiful and matches the vibrant culture. I cannot wait to return and try more of their delicious offerings! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had heard great things about El Tenampa, but it didn't live up to the hype for me. Although the décor was charming, I found the food to be somewhat bland and lacking authentic Mexican flavor. The tacos were small and not particularly filling, especially for the price. The service was average; our server was polite but seemed overwhelmed. Unfortunately, I won't be returning anytime soon, as I can find better Mexican food elsewhere. " (*Curated Review*)

" If you're looking for authentic Mexican food in Orlando, look no further! El Tenampa has quickly become my go-to spot. From the moment I walked in, I was welcomed with friendly smiles and wonderful service. I tried the chicken fajitas and they were succulent and bursting with flavor! Not to mention the portions were enormous - I had enough to take home for dinner the next day. The atmosphere is vibrant yet cozy, making it an ideal place for family dinners or casual outings with friends. I will definitely be returning soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" El Tenampa is a good place for family gatherings. I visited it last weekend with my extended family and we ordered a variety of dishes. I remember loving the enchiladas and some of the appetizers, but I think the standout for everyone was the guacamole – very fresh! The only downside was our large group meant the service was a bit slower than usual, but we ended up having a great time nonetheless. I’ll be back for sure! " (*Curated Review*)

" What a delightful little restaurant! I went for lunch with a friend and we were both impressed with how fresh and flavorful the food was. I ordered the enchiladas with red sauce, and they were to die for! My friend tried the carne asada, which was also terrific. The prices are very reasonable considering the quality and the big portions. The service was friendly and attentive, even during peak hours. I highly recommend trying the horchata as well - it was one of the best I've ever had! " (*Curated Review*)

" What a gem in the city! I celebrated my birthday here with my family and I'm so glad we chose it. The food was exquisite; we tried a mix of appetizers that included guacamole and salsa along with our entrees. Everything was flavorful, fresh, and beautifully presented. Our server was superb, always checking on us and making perfect recommendations. Even the margaritas were top shelf! The environment was festively decorated and contributed to the joyful birthday atmosphere. Highly recommend for any special occasion! " (*Curated Review*)

" El Tenampa is a local favorite! Every time I have visited, I have been impressed by the fresh ingredients and authentic preparation. The carne asada is especially good; it’s tender and full of flavor. The atmosphere is casual yet warm, and the staff is always welcoming. Their margaritas are also worth a mention, as they’re some of the best I’ve tasted. It's easy to bring friends and family here, knowing they will enjoy a delicious meal. " (*Curated Review*)
