" I love Backyard Taco! Their selection of tacos is incredible, and the taste is what keeps me coming back. I particularly enjoy the birria tacos—they are so flavorful. The only qualm I have is sometimes the wait time can be long when they are busy. But the food is worth it. Highly recommend to anyone looking for good tacos in town! " (*Curated Review*)

" I have to say I had a not-so-great experience at Backyard Taco. I found the tacos to be overpriced for what I received. They were decent in flavor but not exceptional. The staff could be more attentive as well as I felt left out at points. I wanted to like it because of the recommendations, but this visit fell short of expectations. " (*Curated Review*)

" I need to talk about the amazing birria tacos at Backyard Taco! They are some of the best I’ve ever had. It’s great they cook everything fresh and I really loved the plethora of salsa options. However, I did find the service lacking at times. It seems they need to streamline their operations a bit better during busy hours. Still, definitely worth a visit for the tasty food! " (*Curated Review*)

" Let me first say that the tacos here are fantastic! Each taco I tried had a distinct and authentic flavor, which is quite rare to find. However, my experience was slightly marred by the service. While the staff was friendly, it took quite a while for our food to arrive. I also noticed the place could use a little tidying up; some tables were not clean. That said, I wouldn’t hesitate to return for the great food. " (*Curated Review*)

" I was really looking forward to trying Backyard Taco after hearing so many people rave about it. I have to say, the hype is justified! The carne asada tacos, in particular, were fantastic. The meat had that perfect charred flavor that is hard to replicate. I enjoyed the friendly atmosphere and the outdoor seating made for a lovely afternoon. Service was a bit chaotic, but manageable. This is definitely a place I’ll return to. " (*Curated Review*)

" This restaurant was a pleasant surprise! I decided to give it a shot after hearing good comments about it. The tacos were small but packed with flavor. I could tell the ingredients were fresh, especially the cilantro. It’s nice to see a place that cares about quality! The staff was friendly, although a bit slow during the lunch rush. Overall, I’ll be back to try more items! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had high expectations when I went to Backyard Taco, and I’m happy to say that they were mostly met! The tacos were great, but the service was a bit slow when we visited. I think the staff was overwhelmed as the place was packed. The atmosphere felt lively, and I appreciated the outdoor seating area. I'm excited to try more items from their menu next time.
