" What a delightful experience! I visited Xaco Taco for Taco Tuesday and took advantage of their amazing deals. I ordered a variety of tacos, including shrimp and vegetarian options. While the shrimp tacos were robust and flavorful, I found the veggie ones a bit lacking. Nonetheless, the chips and salsa were fantastic, and the drinks complemented the meal perfectly. The ambiance made it a lovely evening out. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a less-than-stellar experience. The tacos I ordered came out cold and lacking flavor. While the restaurant has a nice vibe, I was disappointed with the food this time around. The service was polite, but we had to wait quite a bit to get our drinks refilled. I might give it another shot, but I was hoping for a lot more based on what so many others said. " (*Curated Review*)

" Xaco Taco has a fantastic ambiance, but the food could use some more kick for my taste. While I enjoyed the ambiance greatly, I felt that the tacos lacked authentic spices. Our server was very attentive, making up for the slightly lackluster meal. I may give it another try to see if they can up the flavor profile! " (*Curated Review*)

" Amazing experience at Xaco Taco! The staff greeted us with smiles, and the service was outstanding throughout our meal. We ordered a variety of dishes to share, including tacos and churros for dessert! Everything was delicious, though I must admit the churros were a highlight. The vibrant decor adds to the fun atmosphere. Definitely a gem in Providence! " (*Curated Review*)
