" The last time I came to Roman's, I was underwhelmed by my order. I had the carne asada burrito, but it lacked the flavor I remembered from previous visits. The service was friendly though a bit slow. I think they might have had some staffing issues that day. While the atmosphere is cozy, I'm not sure when I will go back next without a craving for their salsas. " (*Curated Review*)

" I went to Roman's for dinner and had high hopes. However, the food didn’t quite meet my expectations. The burrito I had was underwhelming. It was decent but fell flat compared to other Mexican eateries I’ve been to. On a positive note, the place was clean and the staff responded promptly. I left feeling just okay about the meal. " (*Curated Review*)

" I’ve heard mixed reviews about Roman's, and they were accurate. My dining experience was fine but not exceptional. The tacos I had were filling but lacked a punch in seasoning. The place looked tidy, and the service was decent, though the wait time was longer than expected. I might come again, but I'm not in a rush. " (*Curated Review*)

" Absolutely love this little spot! I visit Roman's at least once a week. Their breakfast burrito is a game changer! The portion sizes are generous, and the flavors are spot on. I like how you can customize your order, particularly with the different salsas they offer. While it's often busy, the staff handles it well. For authentic Mexican food that won't break the bank, this is the place to go! " (*Curated Review*)

" After hearing so many positive things about Roman's, I finally decided to check it out. The carne asada tacos were phenomenal! They were tender and flavorful, even better than some of the more well-known taquerias in the area. The salsa bar had a great variety including a spicy chipotle that had the perfect kick. The ambiance was cozy and inviting. Despite the slight wait for my food, it was definitely worth it. Highly recommended! " (*Curated Review*)

" Roman's has been a favorite of mine for years. Each visit reminds me of the authentic Mexican family recipes that are the cornerstone of their menu. I was impressed with how quickly my meal arrived and how full I felt after eating. My go-to is definitely the tacos al pastor, which come loaded and incredibly flavorful. The salsa options are the cherry on top. No other taqueria comes close in the area! " (*Curated Review*)

" I tried Roman's last weekend based on a friend's recommendation. I ordered the chile verde burrito and it was packed with flavor! The meat was tender and the salsa added a perfect kick. The ambiance felt quite casual and welcoming, though it was a bit crowded during my visit. The service, although friendly, could be improved; I waited longer than expected. Overall, I would definitely return to explore more of the menu! " (*Curated Review*)
