" Absolutely loved my experience at Silva's! The chorizo burrito was out of this world, bursting with authentic flavors reminiscent of Mexico. The staff were pleasant, but there was a slight wait due to the lunch rush. However, the delicious food made it worth it. I highly recommend trying their horchata, too. It tastes like home! " (*Curated Review*)

" I've been to many taco shops, but Silva's stands out for its authenticity. I had the tacos de cabeza, which were juicy and flavorful, not overly greasy. The staff was very welcoming, explaining some of the menu items I wasn't familiar with. The atmosphere is laid-back but a little cramped during peak hours. Still, I'll definitely recommend this place to everyone! " (*Curated Review*)

" The first time I visited Silva's, I thought I was just stopping for a quick lunch. Fast forward to now, and it's become a weekly tradition! The tacos al pastor are heavenly, and the portions are generous at a fair price. The inviting staff always remembers my order, which makes me feel appreciated as a customer. I can’t wait for my next visit! " (*Curated Review*)

" Silva’s Taco Shop is like a comforting hug for my taste buds. The taste is that of authentic Mexican fare, and everything I've tried has always been fantastic, particularly the crispy tacos! The staff creates a welcoming environment. Parking is limited, but I’ll continue to make the effort! " (*Curated Review*)

" Not as great as I hoped – the carne asada I had was a bit dry compared to other places in the area. The service was decent, but I felt rushed at times. I want to give this place another try since I’ve heard amazing things! " (*Curated Review*)

" Nothing beats the burritos here! I ordered the California burrito with shrimp and it was gigantic. They truly don’t hold back on filling these bad boys. The service was exceedingly friendly and attentive. I found a new favorite spot to bring my family whenever they come over. Just a small suggestion though, a bit more seating would make our visits more comfortable. " (*Curated Review*)

" My experience at Silva's was amazing! From the moment I walked in, the staff greeted me with smiles. I tried their carne asada fries, and they were vibrant in flavor and packed with ingredients. I also loved their green salsa, which added an extra kick. I will definitely recommend this spot to friends and family when they come to town. " (*Curated Review*)
