" The carnitas here are simply divine! They have a great balance between crunchy and soft. They are generous in their servings, and the price is reasonable. The environment is friendly, and I appreciate that they are consistent with their quality. Highly recommend for anyone wanting authentic food! " (*Curated Review*)

" I used to love La Mina but recently my last few visits have been quite disappointing. The fish tacos that I remember as fresh and flavorful were served cold, and it felt like they were not prepared with care. I also had issues with my order being incorrect on more than one occasion, which has understandably left a sour taste. I hope they can restore their previous level of service because they have great potential. " (*Curated Review*)

" I can't believe I've never tried La Mina until now! The food focused more on quality over quantity, which I appreciate. The carne asada burrito was packed with flavor but didn't leave me feeling weighed down. It had fresh veggies and a nice char on the steak. I will definitely come back to explore more of their menu! " (*Curated Review*)

" I was expecting a rave about dining here, but my recent visit felt underwhelming. I had the shrimp tacos told to me as fabulous, but they were only mildly good. The tortillas weren’t warm, and the shrimp could have been more flavorful. I hope they can step it up next time! " (*Curated Review*)

" This spot is a hidden gem! The tacos are beyond delicious, with rich flavors that remind me of my grandma's cooking. The service has always been friendly, and the environment feels authentic, like a little corner of Mexico. I'd suggest the birria tacos as a must-try—they were heavenly! Can't wait to come back here and indulge again. A true family favorite! " (*Curated Review*)

" I tried their fish tacos and was pleasantly surprised! Topped fresh with avocado and salsa that wasn’t too spicy. However, I think their prices are a bit inflated compared to similar restaurants. The ambiance was warm and inviting but did get quite packed during the dinner rush. " (*Curated Review*)

" As a frequent visitor, I can say that La Mina has its ups and downs. Some days the food is absolutely on point, while others leave you questioning the quality. The service has also been hit or miss in the past. Still, when they get it right, the flavors are mastering the craft of Mexican cuisine, so it’s worth the revisit. " (*Curated Review*)
