" I came here after a long day of exploring and it was worth it. The food felt like home-cooked Mexican. I enjoyed the chicken enchiladas and my friends loved their tacos. The salsa was fresh and flavorful! Can't wait to visit again. " (*Curated Review*)

" Overall a decent meal at Sal Mex. The food was pretty good, and the vibe was nice, but I thought the service could be faster. I ordered the chicken enchiladas, and they were tasty, though I expected a bit more spice. Not the best Mexican I've had, but not the worst either. Would give it another shot. " (*Curated Review*)

" What a delightful experience at Sal Mex! The atmosphere is warm and inviting, and the food is genuinely top-notch. I tried the carne asada tacos, and they were cooked to perfection with loads of flavor. My partner had the vegetable enchiladas, which also came with an amazing homemade salsa. We both left with happy bellies and big smiles. Highly recommend for anyone who loves authentic Mexican cuisine! " (*Curated Review*)

" What a treat! The combination plate was stunning. I got to taste a little bit of everything, and it did not disappoint! I would pay top dollar for the flavors I received. The ambiance is cheerful and comforting. I was there celebrating a friend's birthday, and the servers went above and beyond! Overall, it was a delightful evening. " (*Curated Review*)
