" So disappointed with my last takeout order! I specifically asked for no onions on my tacos, and they still added them. The service was slow, and I felt ignored at times. But I cannot deny the tacos' flavors; they were a treat. I will give them one more chance in the future. " (*Curated Review*)

" I love coming here for lunch! Their tacos are fantastic and very satisfying. Sometimes it can be a bit crowded, and service gets sluggish, but the food always makes it worthwhile. Parking is a challenge but manageable. " (*Curated Review*)

" Bit of a mixed bag - the first time I went, the food was great, but the service was terrible. However, I decided to give it a second chance and was delighted to see the menudo was even better than I remembered. Overall, it’s worth a shot for those authentic flavors. " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited on a Saturday, excited to try their menudo, which I had heard was amazing. I was not disappointed! The portion size was generous, and the taste was just incredible. However, the tables could use some cleaning as they felt sticky. It's a minor detail but worth mentioning. Overall, a solid place for delicious Mexican food. " (*Curated Review*)

" I must admit, I had high expectations after hearing all the rave reviews about the menudo. Upon my visit, I found it to be very hearty and flavorful, truly living up to its reputation. However, the service left a bit to be desired as it felt slow and a bit chaotic at times. Overall a good experience but I hope for better service next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" Every family gathering, we order food from El Mercadito as it’s always a hit! The variety of tacos and fresh ingredients keep us coming back. The menudo is something everyone raves about, and we never leave hungry! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a disappointing experience. The food was mediocre at best, and my order took forever. My friends enjoyed it, but I think I’d try somewhere else next time, especially given the lack of care from the staff. It wasn’t what I expected. " (*Curated Review*)
