" If you love flan, you need to come here! Their flan is creamy and rich, one of the best desserts I've ever had. I also enjoyed the tacos al carbon—super tender and flavorful. The environment is cozy, but the parking situation can be tricky. Overall, a fantastic dining experience! " (*Curated Review*)

" Absolutely loved my meal at Carmelita's! I tried the carne asada fries and they were loaded with toppings. Each bite was a burst of flavor and the portion was more than enough. I also appreciated the freshly made salsas on the side. This place is a must-visit if you're in the area! " (*Curated Review*)

" Found this little gem by accident! The pozole is simply divine, truly one of the best I've had outside of a family gathering. The handmade tortillas add to the authenticity. My only complaint would be that it was a bit busy when I visited, but it just shows how good the food is. The service was still attentive despite the crowd. I will definitely be back! " (*Curated Review*)

" You have to try the salsa they make in-house; it is simply the best! The tacos here have a homey feeling and taste as good as they look. I love that it’s family-run, and the staff treats you like one of their own! " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited this taco spot based on a friend's recommendation, and it’s clear why they love it! The quesabirria and hand-rolled tortillas won me over. The vibrant atmosphere added to the experience. Just a note though, the parking can be a bit tricky during peak hours. It’s worth the hunt, though! " (*Curated Review*)

" Just okay. The food was adequate, but I expected more based on the reviews. The server was pleasant, and the atmosphere was nice. The birria was good but did not blow me away. I've had better meals elsewhere. " (*Curated Review*)

" This has quickly become my favorite taqueria! The breakfast burritos are such a treat, especially on a weekend morning. They are filled to the brim with eggs, chorizo, and potatoes. The staff is always friendly, greeting you with a smile when you walk in. The place is small but super cozy, making it a perfect spot for brunch with friends. " (*Curated Review*)
