" Great food, but the service was lacking. It felt like the staff was overwhelmed, and we waited far too long for our food. However, I can't complain about the quality. The tacos were delectable! Just be prepared for a long wait if you decide to visit during peak hours. " (*Curated Review*)

" El Camino Real is hands down my top choice for Mexican cuisine in Kansas City! I've been going there for years, and the food remains consistently great. Their al pastor tacos are my favorite, always flavorful and served with the perfect amount of toppings. The only downside is that the restaurant can become quite crowded, especially on weekends. However, the friendly service and wonderful flavors keep me returning! " (*Curated Review*)

" The atmosphere was vibrant, and the food was undeniably delicious! My favorite was the tacos. They not only tasted good but were served neatly. However, I did notice my server forgot to check in on us multiple times. I would give this place another shot for the food alone since it was so tasty. " (*Curated Review*)

" Love this spot! Authentic flavor and cozy atmosphere. The tacos al pastor were a highlight for me; they were juicy and packed with toppings. Had a great conversation with the friendly staff, which made the dining experience even better. I'll be returning soon for another meal! " (*Curated Review*)

" I didn’t have a pleasant experience unfortunately. While the food eventually came out hot and fresh, the service was incredibly slow and uncommunicative. I ordered a torta but received the wrong item entirely. After pointing this out, it took a long time to fix the order. On the plus side, the food was very good once I got what I asked for, so perhaps they were just having an off day. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had high hopes but, unfortunately, did not meet my expectations. Service was hit or miss. The staff seemed overwhelmed. My food took longer to arrive than I expected and didn't seem fresh. What I did try tasted fine, but I had hoped for a better experience overall. " (*Curated Review*)

" Wonderful little spot! The atmosphere was fun, and the food was fresh. I particularly enjoyed the salsa; it had just the right kick. The wait staff was attentive without being intrusive, which I appreciated. The prices reflect the quality of the food here, which is a definite plus. I would recommend this place to anyone looking for great Mexican food! " (*Curated Review*)
