" This place is simply the best for tacos. Mrs. Rosy behind the counter is such a sweetheart and remembers me when I visit! The homemade tortillas are always fresh, and the portions are generous. I typically order a variety to share with friends, and everyone leaves satisfied- me included! " (*Curated Review*)

" The homemade tortillas at El Itacate will have you coming back for more! I appreciated the authentic flavors and the attention to detail in their dishes. The only downside was the wait during peak hours, but it’s worth it for quality tacos. Definitely a gem in the neighborhood! " (*Curated Review*)

" I was a bit disappointed with my recent visit to El Itacate. While the flavors were there, I found the portion sizes to be quite small for the price. The staff seemed rushed, and I didn’t feel the warmth that I usually expect from a local taco joint. I still appreciate the freshness of the ingredients though. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had an amazing lunch yesterday! The tacos were so delightful and bursting with flavors! Not to forget how amazing the homemade tortillas are. I can't wait to get back and try every single taco they offer. Such a lovely place filled with great energy! " (*Curated Review*)

" My family has been coming to El Itacate for years, and it never disappoints! The tortillas are always fresh, and the flavors are vibrant. My kids love the bean and cheese tacos. It’s not the fanciest setup, but it's cozy and welcoming. I appreciate the fast service, especially when we're in a hurry. " (*Curated Review*)

" What a hidden gem! I stumbled upon El Itacate while visiting San Antonio, and it blew my mind! The carne guisada tacos were melt-in-your-mouth delicious. The tortillas were authentic; you could taste the love in them. The service was friendly, making my experience even better. I will be dreaming about these tacos until I can come back! " (*Curated Review*)

" Every taco here tastes like heaven! I've tried a bunch of different fillings, and they’ve all been phenomenal. The homemade flour tortillas are thick and soft; you can’t go wrong with them. As a taco lover, I make it a point to stop by El Itacate every time I’m in the area. The outdoor seating is a nice touch, too! " (*Curated Review*)
