" El Itacate has quickly become my favorite place for tacos! The ambiance may not be fancy, but the flavors definitely are. I love how you can see the tortillas being made fresh! My only suggestion would be to have more options on the menu, but what they do serve is excellent. " (*Curated Review*)

" I have visited many taco places, but this one stands out for its flavor and quality. I ordered a variety of tacos, and each one was better than the last. The homemade tortillas were a highlight that you don’t find everywhere. The outdoor ambience was a little distracting with all the flies, but I would definitely return! " (*Curated Review*)

" Our first experience at El Itacate was lovely! The tacos were packed with flavor, and you could tell the tortillas were made just for us. I enjoyed the outdoor seating area, which was perfect for our family. The only downside was that it was slightly crowded, but I guess that speaks to its popularity! " (*Curated Review*)

" Every time I visit El Itacate, I'm reminded of home. The tacos are always fresh, and I love seeing the ladies make the tortillas right in front of me. Their green salsa is a must-try and perfectly complements the carne asada taco. I highly recommend this taco spot to anyone looking for authentic Mexican food. " (*Curated Review*)

" El Itacate is a taco joint that focuses on quality and authenticity. Each taco is prepared with fresh ingredients, and their homemade tortillas are delightful. I particularly enjoyed the salsa; it adds that extra kick! The ambience is casual and perfect for a quick meal, but the place can get hectic during lunch hours. " (*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*)
