" I had the worst experience today! After being a loyal customer for years, my last visit left me feeling quite frustrated and upset. The service has deteriorated significantly. The lady at the counter was rude and dismissive, which was surprising given how nice the staff used to be. To top it off, my order was incorrect and the food didn’t taste as good as I remembered. Perhaps it’s time for me to find a new go-to spot! " (*Curated Review*)

" What a gem of a place! Taqueria Los Grandes exceeded my expectations. The friendly staff are reminiscent of a family gathering, and the food is nothing short of spectacular. Their tacos de lengua are forever etched into my favorites list—the richness of the meat combined with the distinct taste of their homemade salsa brings every bite to life. This place is a true representation of authentic Mexican dining; you won't be disappointed! " (*Curated Review*)

" I can't say enough about my love for this place! For anyone who values authentic Mexican cuisine, Taqueria Los Grandes is it. The tacos de lengua are incredible - the meat is so tender and flavorful, and the street-style presentation is perfect. The staff seems to know many of their regulars by name, which adds a nice personal touch to the service. This is truly a family-owned place that makes you feel like part of their family. I will definitely keep coming back! " (*Curated Review*)

" I’ve been a fan of Taqueria Los Grandes ever since I came across them while exploring the area. Whenever I'm in the mood for tacos, this is my top choice! I highly recommend the birria tacos - they’re so succulent and spicy, just the way I like them. The ambiance is casual and inviting which makes it a perfect spot to unwind with friends. Just a heads up, the line can be long during peak times, but trust me, it’s worth the wait! " (*Curated Review*)

" While I found Taqueria Los Grandes to have decent food, I wouldn't rate it as the best in town. The tacos de asada were good, but I was hoping for more flavor. I’ve been to other places where they do it better. The service was friendly, but I could sense they were quite busy, which slowed things down a bit. Overall, I enjoyed my meal but didn't leave excited to return. " (*Curated Review*)

" If you want genuine Mexican food, you need to visit Taqueria Los Grandes. The family that runs this place puts their heart into every dish. Their chile reno is a personal favorite, bursting with flavors, and their menudo is unlike any I’ve had before. The service has always been friendly, though sometimes a bit slow when it’s busy. Overall, I keep coming back because the food speaks for itself. Don’t let the casual setting fool you; the flavors are richly authentic! " (*Curated Review*)

" Overall, a decent visit with some strong highlights. The food was tasty, particularly the salsa, but I did find the tacos a bit overpriced for the portion size. The service was friendly but felt a little slow during the busy lunchtime. Despite that, the authentic flavors were there, leaving me wanting to explore more of the menu. I would return but maybe not as frequently as I'd like. " (*Curated Review*)
