" Initially hesitant due to the exterior, I was blown away by the flavors inside. The tacos were phenomenal, especially the birria! However, I bumped my head on that low sign outside which took a bit away from the experience. Service was decent. Would love to see more care for safety in that area. But I will be returning for the food regardless! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a quick lunch here, and I’d recommend the place for sure! While the lines can get long during lunch hours, the food comes out super fresh. The street tacos and torta I had were both quite tasty! It’s definitely worth a visit, but I’d suggest going non-peak hours. " (*Curated Review*)

" I have attended several taco places, and this one stands out for its authenticity! They use fresh ingredients, and the flavors are so traditional, it makes me feel like I am back in Mexico. One of my favorites is the tamales; they are delicious when available. Staff is welcoming and friendly, making the experience even better. " (*Curated Review*)

" This place exceeded my expectations. I got the quesabirria, and it was hands down the best I've had. Spicy, cheesy, and packed with flavor! Their service was excellent, very attentive. I took points off the atmosphere because the place is quite small, but the food more than compensates for it! " (*Curated Review*)

" Visiting from out of state and decided to try this place based on reviews. It was a delightful surprise! The tacos were delightful, especially the shrimp option. They were super juicy and bursting with flavor. I would definitely come back if I’m in the area again. Overall a fantastic experience! " (*Curated Review*)

" Taco Xpress is simply incredible! The flavors are so rich and authentic, absolutely loved the birria tacos. I went there solo, and the staff treated me like family. I couldn't fit in the outdoor seating but found standing by the window just fine. Highly recommend this spot for any taco lover! " (*Curated Review*)

" I cannot stress how flavorful and authentic Taco Xpress is! I'd highly recommend the pork tamales; they melt in your mouth. The staff was also very friendly and willing to help with my questions about the menu. I'll certainly be returning! " (*Curated Review*)
