" El Monarca is a great little spot we stumbled upon while exploring Goldsboro. The nachos were incredible - great portions and served hot! While the service was a bit slow at times, the food more than made up for it. Will definitely visit again in the future. " (*Curated Review*)

" I’m not easily pleased, but I was thoroughly impressed with the quality of food at El Monarca. The mole sauce on my enchiladas was delightful. Service was polite but staff seemed slightly rushed, which impacted the dining experience a bit. Nevertheless, I will be back! " (*Curated Review*)

" Having experienced Mexican food all over the country, El Monarca stands out with its authenticity. The carnitas were juicy and their salsa was nicely spiced. I had a good time, but the area felt a bit cluttered. I think with a bit of seating adjustments, it could be perfect! " (*Curated Review*)

" While I had high hopes for El Monarca, my last visit was a letdown. The quesadilla was bland, and the accompanying salsa lacked the kick I expected. I hope this was just an off day for them because I’ve heard so many good things! I’ll give it another shot eventually. " (*Curated Review*)

" Unfortunately, my experience at El Monarca was disappointing. I ordered the chili Colorado, which consisted of overcooked meat in an odd sauce. The tortillas were fine, but everything else fell short of my expectations. The only redeeming quality was the friendly service. I probably won’t be returning. " (*Curated Review*)

" The best taco place in town! I always look forward to Taco Tuesday, where I can get a variety of tacos for only a dollar each. Every time I visit, the staff goes above and beyond to make sure I’m satisfied. Highly recommend! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a nice visit at El Monarca last weekend. The ambiance of the place was delightful and made me feel welcomed. I personally enjoyed their guacamole, but my friend thought it could have used more seasoning. Overall, a lovely dining experience with tasty food. " (*Curated Review*)
