" My experience at Crystal's was incredible! The team goes above and beyond to provide top-notch service. I ordered the barbacoa tacos, and they were scrumptious! The flavors were spot on, and the portion was just right. My only complaint would be the limited parking situation, but I would still recommend it wholeheartedly. Great dining experience! " (*Curated Review*)

" Honestly, Crystal's was a bit of a disappointment. Perhaps my expectations were too high given all the rave reviews. The food was just average for my taste. I didn't find the seasoning to be very appealing and although the portions were adequate, I was left craving more flavor. On the flip side, the staff was friendly and the restaurant had a nice, clean atmosphere. I’d probably try again but order something different next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" I recently discovered Crystal's and it has immediately become one of my favorites! The staff is friendly, and the food is wonderful. I tried their fish tacos and they were among the best I've ever had! Everything was beautifully presented and bursting with flavor. I appreciate that they focus on traditional recipes and authentic methods. A hidden gem for sure! Just be prepared for limited seating. " (*Curated Review*)

" Visiting Crystal's restaurant can be an adventure! With the crowded parking and bustling atmosphere, it reflects the love people have for this place. Their breakfast burritos are something everyone should try; large portions and super tasty. The service was generally good, but we did have to wait longer than expected for a table. Still, I enjoyed my meal and the warm environment. Would come back, but maybe at an off-peak time. " (*Curated Review*)

" Absolutely loved everything about Crystal's! From the first bite of my tacos to the friendly service, the experience was amazing. Their homemade tortillas are the best I've ever had - you can really taste the difference. I ended up taking some leftovers home because the portions are so generous! The place was a bit crowded, but that's a sign of how good they are. Can't wait to come back! " (*Curated Review*)

" Crystal's has been my go-to spot for breakfast for years. The handmade corn tortillas are the best part of any meal! I often order the huevos rancheros and pair it with their delicious salsa. The service is generally good, but it does get busy on weekends, so be ready for a slight wait. Overall, a wonderful place to enjoy traditional Mexican food. " (*Curated Review*)

" Crystal's is such a gem! Their breakfast offerings exceed expectations every time; I particularly love their flour tortillas! The service is nice and quick for breakfast hours. Even though the restaurant can get a bit crowded, it's part of its charm. Definitely worth a visit if you're in the mood for comfort food that feels like home. " (*Curated Review*)
