" I stumbled across Nico's while exploring Pendleton, and I am so glad I did! The tacos are fantastic and taste like they’ve come straight from a street vendor in Mexico. I had a chicken taco, and the meat was juicy and well-seasoned. I appreciated the healthy portion sizes and the fresh toppings. The only drawback was that the tables were slightly dirty, but it was a busy time! I will happily return on my next trip. " (*Curated Review*)

" Nico's Tacos is a hidden gem! The flavors here are truly something special. I tried the pork tostadas, and they were amazing—crispy, flavorful, and very satisfying. The staff were super friendly and seemed genuinely happy to serve customers. The only downside was that the seating area could get a little crowded during peak times, but the delicious food makes up for it. Will definitely come back! " (*Curated Review*)

" My husband and I decided to check out Nico's after hearing so much about it. We both ordered different things to share. I had the chicken burrito, which was huge and very flavorful. The guacamole on the side was fresh and complemented the meal perfectly. My husband got tacos and raved about the homemade salsa. Overall, a great experience—friendly staff, and the lines moved quickly! " (*Curated Review*)

" The atmosphere at Nico's is casual and friendly, perfect for grabbing a quick bite. I tried the shrimp tacos on a whim. They were surprisingly good, filled with fresh ingredients and great seasoning. The service was quick, but I do wish they had more variety on the menu. Nonetheless, my experience was enjoyable overall. Just make sure to come with a healthy appetite because the portions are generous! " (*Curated Review*)

" I must say, Nico’s Tacos did not meet my expectations. While I had heard great things, the carne asada was overcooked and lacked the robust flavor I was hoping for. The wait time for my food was longer than average, and although the staff was friendly, they seemed a bit overwhelmed. The atmosphere felt rushed as we were eating quickly to clear the cramped space for the next customers. Disappointed, I might give it another try in the future just to see if it was an off day.

" Visited Nico's Tacos last weekend and was blown away! I tried the nachos with carne asada, and they were delicious. The portion size was more than enough to share, but I didn’t want to! The meat was tender and flavorful with generous toppings. The outdoor seating made for a nice dining ambiance. The only downside was the long wait due to the line, but the food is absolutely worth it. " (*Curated Review*)

" Nico's never fails to bring the flavor! I ordered the chicken quesadilla and was really impressed by the portion size. The cheese was gooey, and the chicken was perfectly grilled. Their salsa options added an extra kick! The only downside was the seating; it gets crowded quickly. Always look forward to coming here. It’s definitely worth it! " (*Curated Review*)
