" I visited during the lunch hour and was impressed by how quickly I received my order. The food was delicious, and the prices were reasonable. I ordered the chorizo tacos, which came with a side of fresh, homemade salsa. The ambiance was cozy but felt a bit rushed. Overall a great experience, and I would certainly come back with friends! " (*Curated Review*)

" I was a bit disappointed with my last visit. The food was good, but it took longer than expected to get our order. It felt a bit chaotic, and I could see the staff were overwhelmed. However, when our food finally arrived, the enmoladas and mole were delightful. The flavors were really authentic, which is why I would still consider returning for a second chance. Hopefully, next time it will be smoother. " (*Curated Review*)

" The food was flavorful, yet I found a particular dish slightly lacking in spice. The staff were friendly but somewhat inattentive at certain points. The vibe here is cool and inviting, but serving times could be more consistent. Definitely worth a visit if you are in the area. I might return to give it another shot to explore other menu items, especially their molcajetes. " (*Curated Review*)

" Mr. Molcajetes is simply outstanding! The flavors are genuinely authentic and remind me of the best street tacos I've had in Tijuana. I ordered the carne asada tacos, and they were juicy with the right amount of seasoning. The atmosphere is eclectic and laid back, making it a fantastic spot for casual gatherings. The staff took great care of us, ensuring we had everything we needed to enjoy our meal. If you're looking for a taste of Mexico in the city, don't miss this gem! " (*Curated Review*)

" Highly recommend! The food was incredible, especially their carne asada tacos! Each bite was packed with authentic flavors, and the staff were so welcoming. The atmosphere felt friendly and lively, perfect for a casual dinner with friends. I hope they keep up the high standards because I can't wait to try more of their menu items next time.

" One of the best places for a casual dining experience! The staff really makes you feel at home, and the taco options are fantastic. I opted for the vegetarian tacos, which were refreshing and packed full of flavor. The ambiance was chill, and we were even able to choose a table outside. I’ll definitely recommend this spot to anyone looking for good Mexican fare with a laid-back feel. " (*Curated Review*)

" Came by after hearing raving reviews, and I can confirm this place is a winner! The tacos are bursting with flavors, especially the chorizo one. Plus, their homemade salsa was an absolute highlight. We enjoyed sitting on the patio, which had a vibrant and lively atmosphere. It was a little crowded, but that only added to the fun. I highly recommend taking friends for a cheerful meal! " (*Curated Review*)
