" If you're looking for the real deal, La Juquilita does not disappoint! I was immediately taken back to my childhood visits to Mexico. The tacos are authentic, with you being able to taste the ingredients they use. A friend and I ordered a bunch to share and everything was top-notch! Warning: cash-only. I hope to see more people discover this gem! " (*Curated Review*)

" I recently decided to check out La Juquilita after hearing how authentic it is. While I appreciate the genuineness, I found many aspects lacking. The carne asada was a bit bland, and for a family-run restaurant, they seemed quite overwhelmed. If you're after authentic flavors, you might enjoy it, but as someone used to more vibrant dishes, I was left a bit disappointed. I think I’ll stick with my go-to taco trucks. " (*Curated Review*)

" Visited La Juquilita a few days ago after hearing rave reviews from friends. As a Mexican food enthusiast, I have to say their al pastor tacos are phenomenal - perfectly spiced and just the right amount of tenderness. The casual and somewhat rustic vibe adds to the authenticity of the experience. Prices are reasonable for the quality of food, but make sure to bring cash because they only accept that. Definitely a repeat for me! " (*Curated Review*)

" La Juquilita is simply the best if you want authentic Mexican food! I visited on a whim and was blown away by the flavors! The tacos were fresh, the horchata refreshing, and the general vibe of the place felt wonderful. It's a cash-only restaurant, which I prefer for a taqueria, and the prices were very fair! I can’t wait to bring friends next time! " (*Curated Review*)

" As someone who grew up eating authentic Mexican food, I can honestly say La Juquilita kept it real. The food was comforting and homey, just like what you would get at a family member’s house. I tried their mole dish and it blew my mind; the flavors were deep and complex! I’m so glad I discovered this place! The only downside is that it’s cash only, but hey, that just makes it feel more genuine. " (*Curated Review*)

" I was excited to try La Juquilita based on the recommendations, but it fell a bit short for me. The flavor of the tacos was decent but not as vibrant as I hoped for. The setting felt cramped, especially since it's quite small, and the service was lackluster - the staff seemed overwhelmed. I might give it another chance in the future since they have a loyal fan base, but my first visit was just okay. " (*Curated Review*)

" La Juquilita is a must-visit for taco lovers! The freshness is evident, with each taco handcrafted and bursting with flavor. My favorites are the shrimp tacos, perfectly spiced with lots of cilantro and onions – just like they serve them in Mexico! The vibrant, homey vibe of the restaurant adds to the overall experience. Don't forget to try out their agua frescas; they're refreshing! Just one recommendation: bring cash. " (*Curated Review*)
