" I stopped by Lew's for a quick bite and was blown away by how good the food was for the price. The portions are generous, and you know it’s all made from scratch, which is a rarity these days. The decor might be dated, but that just adds to the charm! I'd definitely recommend the tacos for a fulfilling meal. " (*Curated Review*)

" After hearing mixed reviews, I finally decided to check out Lew's. The atmosphere feels a bit run down, which matches the vintage vibe, but the food is where they shine! The Big Lew burger was juicy and satisfying, and their fries were seasoned perfectly. I’ll overlook the aesthetic because the taste is awesome! " (*Curated Review*)

" What can I say? Lew's Drive In is my favorite spot for a reason! The tacos are always fresh, never frozen, and made from quality ingredients. Don't be fooled by the old decorations; it's all about the food here. I had the chance to meet the owner, Rafa, and he was so down-to-earth! Can't wait to go back and try new things! " (*Curated Review*)

" Big portions and even bigger flavors! The chicken burrito I ordered was hearty and packed with flavor. I felt like I got a good meal for my money. The owners made sure we felt welcome, and they were attentive throughout our visit. I can see this becoming a regular spot for me and my friends. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had an excellent experience at Lew's Drive In. The chicken tacos were well-seasoned and quite filling. The staff was friendly and seemed genuinely eager to help. The atmosphere could use some renovations, but the tasty food makes it worth it. They charge for using a credit card, so just be aware of that when you go. Overall a very satisfying meal!

I particularly loved their fish tacos, which were packed with flavor. If you're looking for authentic Mexican food, you cannot miss this place! " (*Curated Review*)

" Great spot for food lovers! I enjoyed a huge plate of nachos layered with cheese and fresh toppings. The owner is also very friendly, always looking to chat. Atmosphere isn't the best, but it's all about the food, and that's where they shine. I will absolutely visit again soon! " (*Curated Review*)
