" I keep coming back to El Catrin for their delicious tacos! Honestly, their flavors are next-level. The only downside is that parking can be a hassle, depending on the time of day. Nonetheless, I've never had a bad meal here. I do wish they would switch up their menu occasionally, as I love trying new things. " (*Curated Review*)

" Fun and lively place with flavorful food! The tacos were amazing, and the horchata was refreshing! I must say the staff was super friendly and led me to some great recommendations! My only feedback would be to increase seating capacity since it's such a popular spot, but overall, great experience! " (*Curated Review*)

" Let me just say, if you’re looking for authentic Mexican flavors, this is the place to be! El Catrin does not hold back on you. Their meals are lavish in taste and presented beautifully. I would recommend the enchiladas to anyone who visits. Just be prepared for limited seating during peak dining hours! " (*Curated Review*)

" I am so glad I discovered El Catrin! The quality of their tacos is simply unbeatable. The pastors were seasoned to perfection, and I loved the kick of the fresh sauces. However, my only complaint was about the waiting time; it was somewhat busy, but the food was absolutely worth the wait. I also enjoyed their horchata—it was refreshing and complemented my meal very well. " (*Curated Review*)

" Okay, so I sat down ready to indulge in some hearty enchiladas like I've had in Mexico. What I got was an average plate that lacked the flavor 'oomph' I was hoping for. The service was decent but my waiter didn't seem to be very attentive. I want to give this place another chance simply because I've heard so many good things from my friends—maybe it was just a bad day for them. " (*Curated Review*)

" El Catrin has quickly become my go-to for tacos! They understand flavor, and the salsas are a major plus. My only complaint would be the occasional long lines during peak hours. If you can go during off-peak times, you won’t be disappointed. Great food at an even better value! " (*Curated Review*)

" Wow, just wow! El Catrin has completely revived my love for authentic tacos. The pastor tacos were bursting with flavor, and the fresh corn tortillas made it all come together. I also loved their homemade salsas! Can't recommend this place enough, and the service was quick and friendly. I have two words: must visit! " (*Curated Review*)
