" I wasn’t expecting a lot from a market-restaurant hybrid but wow, El Campeon impressed me. The tacos felt nearly homemade with fresh tortillas! I ordered the carnitas and they melted in my mouth. The prices were very fair, especially for the portion sizes. However, my only complaint would be the overall cleanliness—it could use a good scrub-down. Despite that, I’ll still return for those tacos any day! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a great experience at El Campeon Carniceria Market. I went with my family to celebrate a special occasion, and we ordered a variety of dishes. The favorite was undoubtedly the costillas en salsa verde, which tasted just like my mother used to make for the family get-together. The portions were generous and the service was prompt. Although the atmosphere is more functional than fancy, it really felt like a community gathering place, which added to the authenticity. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for quality Mexican food paired with a homely vibe. We left with full bellies and happy hearts! " (*Curated Review*)

" Our first visit to El Campeon didn't go as we hoped. While the food wasn't terrible, my ensalada was lacking in freshness and the greens didn’t look appetizing. We also ordered tacos, which were decent but I've certainly had better. The ambiance felt somewhat crowded and chaotic. Unfortunately, I can't give more than a couple stars here, as we left feeling pretty underwhelmed. I may give it another shot during taco Tuesday, but I don't have high hopes. " (*Curated Review*)

" Have to say, El Campeon is a delightful find! Stopped by for lunch and went straight for their special burrito. It was loaded with chicken, beans, and guacamole, all wrapped tightly. The meal definitely kept me full throughout the day! The vibe was friendly and welcoming, and I felt appreciated as a customer. While it could use a bit more decor to enhance the atmosphere, I was quite pleased overall. Would recommend trying this locally-owned spot if you're in the area! " (*Curated Review*)

" My recent experience at El Campeon was quite the journey. I first stopped in to grab some groceries and was pleasantly surprised to find their hot food selection. I couldn't resist ordering a couple of tacos for myself before heading home. The flavors were incredible! They gave me such a generous portion, and the meat was incredibly succulent. The only downside was that it seemed a bit disorganized with the staff rushing around, but they were polite when taking my order. I'm excited to return soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" I have visited El Campeon multiple times, and the flavors never disappoint. I've tried their tacos, burritos, and even tamales. Each visit has been a hearty meal that fills me up without breaking the bank. I appreciate their daily specials and figure it's a good strategy for returning customers. The staff have always been friendly, too, although it can get quite busy. Cleanliness is something that could improve but the food speaks for itself! " (*Curated Review*)

" This place is a gem! The tacos are phenomenal and taste just like the ones my grandma used to make. The flavors are authentic, and it's clear that they take pride in their cooking. I also tried their aguas frescas, which were refreshing and perfect for washing down the delicious tacos. The atmosphere is casual and welcoming, great for a quick meal or to pick up some groceries. I always recommend this place to friends, and it never disappoints. Plus, the prices are incredibly reasonable for the quality you get! " (*Curated Review*)
