" Esmeralda's has become my weekly treat! Their tacos are so good that I keep coming back. What I love the most is the authenticity and the generous portions—they never skimp on the fillings! It's perfect for families or any get together. Just wish they had more seating for a dine-in experience! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had high hopes for Esmeralda's after hearing great things, but my experience was somewhat mixed. While the tacos were decent and flavorful, I found the service lacking on my visit. The long wait times and confusion during ordering made it frustrating. However, the food itself tasted fresh, and I appreciated the well-sized portions. Maybe I’ll give them another shot. " (*Curated Review*)

" Esmeralda's has some incredible tacos! Each time I return, I'm amazed at the consistent quality. Fresh and vibrant flavors with excellent portion sizes. The takeout experience is mostly straightforward, although occasionally they’re a bit behind on timing during peak hours. It's never enough to deter my appreciation for their food! " (*Curated Review*)

" Esmeralda's 2.0 is my favorite spot for tacos! Excellent flavors and quality ingredients shine through. I appreciate how they put a personal touch on every dish they create. The portions are generous, but I hope to see more options for indoor dining soon! This place deserves all the praise it gets! " (*Curated Review*)

" Wow! Esmeralda's 2.0 blew my mind! The street tacos made with fresh ingredients kept me coming back for seconds. The vibe is casual but welcoming, perfect for a quick bite. The value for money is phenomenal; I fed my family of four for under $40. We left with full bellies and big smiles! Highly recommend for anyone craving authentic flavor. " (*Curated Review*)

" Highly recommend checking out Esmeralda's! The flavors are truly authentic and are on par with the best I've tried in Mexico. Their tacos were juicy, and even the side dishes complemented perfectly, showcasing their attention to detail. A bit disappointed in the take-out-only aspect, but the quality makes it worth it! " (*Curated Review*)

" I've been to Esmeralda's several times now and keep coming back for the tacos. I tried their carne asada and al pastor last visit, and they were both amazing! The staff is friendly, but service can slow down when they’re busy. The only complaint is the takeout-only setup; I’d love to enjoy my meal in-house one day! " (*Curated Review*)
