" The first time I visited Torchy's, I thought it wouldn’t live up to the high expectations, but I was gladly proven wrong! The fast service and delicious flavors left a lasting impression. The creatively named tacos appeal to both the eye and palate. I particularly enjoyed the stuffed burrito, but I'd argue that the menu could use a few more vegetarian options. Still, I would return without a doubt! " (*Curated Review*)

" Above and beyond service during my recent visit! I came in with dietary restrictions, and the staff worked with me to ensure everything was perfect. I tried the Airstream salad and it was loaded with fresh ingredients and great flavors! While Torchy's might not be an authentic Mexican restaurant, they do have their unique take on tacos that's incredibly enjoyable. The atmosphere is casual, which I love! " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited this location expecting to be blown away based on the hype, but I felt a bit let down. The tacos were prepared well but didn’t have the authentic Mexican flavors I was hoping for. The service was friendly, albeit understandably overwhelmed during peak hours. All in all, it was decent, but I may seek more traditional options next time I’m in the mood for tacos. I'll give them another chance! " (*Curated Review*)

" This was my second visit to Torchy's and it was as good as I remembered! The tacos are large, and there are plenty of creative options to choose from. I had the Ace of Spades taco, which was incredibly flavorful! The staff handled our large group efficiently and kindly. There was a bit of a wait for a table, but we didn’t mind enjoying the ambiance outside while we waited. Will definitely be back to try more! " (*Curated Review*)

" I’ve gone to Torchy’s multiple times, and I have to say it’s consistently solid! Their tacos are filled generously, and the queso is also a hit. It’s a great place to stop for a casual meal with friends, even if the authenticity may vary. Staff always make you feel welcome, and the vibe of the restaurant is upbeat! " (*Curated Review*)

" Visiting Torchy’s has always been a pleasure! The staff are friendly and attentive, making you feel welcome as soon as you walk in. The tacos are always tasty, and I love how they showcase local flavors fused with fun ingredients. I recently tried the seasonal taco, which was delicious. Though some might critique their authenticity, I think that creativity makes it worth the visit! " (*Curated Review*)

" Visited Torchy's on a recommendation and was pleasantly surprised! The food was fresh and delicious, though I would have liked to see more authentic taco fillings rather than their more inventive options. The service was fantastic, however, and the bright decor made for an uplifting dining experience. I’d probably return again to try out some different tacos! " (*Curated Review*)
