" I had really high expectations based on the reviews, and I was not disappointed! The shrimp tacos were by far the highlight of the meal, fresh and zesty with that perfect kick. The ambiance is great too; the decoration gives a cozy feel to the place. My only minor complaint is that the drinks took a little longer than expected, but it all balanced out with the quality of the food. " (*Curated Review*)

" Sonora Cocina is an excellent find! The tacos were fantastic, packed with flavor and authenticity that reminded me of my trips to Mexico. The service was friendly and attentive, and the ambiance is vibrant, making it a perfect spot for casual dining. I recommend ordering the Diablo burrito if you love some heat. I will definitely be back on my next trip to Asheville! " (*Curated Review*)
