" While the food was good at Mezcalito Oaxacan Cuisine, I found myself comparing it to other Mexican restaurants I've visited. I sampled the Enchiladas and found them well-prepared but not exceptionally spicy, which is a requirement for me. The service was cordial, and the ambiance was inviting. I think I expected too much hype before visiting. Overall, I enjoyed my time and would return, but I seek a bit more kick in the flavors. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a pleasant experience at Mezcalito Oaxacan Cuisine. The ceviche was refreshing and definitely hit the spot. The staff were polite and helpful, guiding me through the menu which was great since it was my first visit. The only downside was that I felt the portions were a bit smaller than I expected, especially considering the prices. Nonetheless, I appreciated the authenticity in the flavors of their dishes! I would return for sure to try more of their offerings. " (*Curated Review*)

" What a fantastic evening we had at Mezcalito! The food was beyond compare—the flavors were vivid and represented true Oaxacan cuisine. I chose the Tacos de Chapulines, and they were delicious, with a unique twist. The ambience was like a warm hug, inviting and accommodating! While the service was good, there were moments when I wished for a bit more attention to detail. However, I'm definitely coming back to this lovely spot soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" I was excited to try this highly-rated restaurant, but my visit was underwhelming. I felt the dishes lacked the authentic flavors I had anticipated. The service was friendly, but my order arrived later than expected, which affected the overall experience. The restaurant itself has a cozy vibe, but I expected more when it came to the food. I'll revisit with a fresh perspective in the hope of a better experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" Mezcalito offers a unique twist on traditional Mexican cuisine. I tried the Ceviche, and it was fresh and tangy, a delightful starter. My entrée was the Chicken Chile Relleno, which was tasty but could have used just a bit more spice. The restaurant is lovely, but I recommend going during off-peak hours for better service. I experienced a slight delay, which can happen anywhere. Overall, a worthy experience, and I will return for more! " (*Curated Review*)

" I finally made it to Mezcalito and absolutely loved it! The food was packed with flavor; I had the Chicken Enmoladas, which are a must-try! The atmosphere is vibrant and energetic, making it a great spot for a night out. The service was friendly, yet I felt a bit rushed at times due to how busy it was. Nonetheless, I'm looking forward to coming back and trying something new from their menu! " (*Curated Review*)

" The food is authentic and made with love! I had the chance to try the famous Tlayuda, and it was incredible. The presentation was beautiful, and the flavors were out of this world! I also want to mention how friendly the staff was, making the visit even more pleasant. The place is usually busy, which speaks volumes about its popularity. I would rate my experience as top-notch and cannot wait to return! " (*Curated Review*)
