" I was excited to try Mezcalero after hearing so many great things, and it did not disappoint! The atmosphere was lively our whole group had a blast. We shared several appetizers including the ceviche, which was incredibly fresh and zesty. My main dish was the enchiladas, and they were so flavorful! The servers were friendly, but sometimes forgot our requests. Still, the overall experience was positive, and I can't wait to return and try more dishes, particularly the pozole everyone keeps raving about. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a lovely dinner at Mezcalero with friends. The chips and salsa were fresh and complementary, and we really enjoyed the variety of dishes we tried. Tacos were definitely the highlight, packed with flavor. The staff was friendly but sometimes distracted. It felt welcoming overall, a place worth visiting! " (*Curated Review*)

" Although I was looking forward to trying Mezcalero, my experience was pretty lackluster. The food was decent, but honestly didn't stand out. The carne asada was overly salted and reminded me of less experienced cooking. The atmosphere was fine, but the service lagged significantly. I might give it another shot in the future. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had an enjoyable lunch at Mezcalero yesterday. The atmosphere was welcoming and friendly. I ordered the fish tacos, and while they were delicious, I wish the portion was a bit more generous. Service was attentive, but I felt rushed towards the end. Overall, a solid choice if you're in the area. " (*Curated Review*)

" Solid dinner at Mezcalero! The mole was delicious, and the tacos were flavorful. Although the wait for our food was longer than expected, the staff was friendly and the atmosphere was lively.

" I stumbled upon Mezcalero while exploring DC and decided to give it a try. I was blown away by the flavors of the enchiladas; the sauce was rich and the cheese melted perfectly. The atmosphere had a nice buzz, making it a fun dining experience. Although the service was slightly slow, I found it worth the wait. I'd recommend checking it out if you love genuine Mexican flavors. " (*Curated Review*)

" Yum! Mezcalero has some of the best tacos I've had! The fish tacos were especially fresh and flavorful. The ambiance is vibrant, making it a great place for a casual dinner. However, I felt like we had to wait a bit too long for our food. Despite that, I would highly recommend it for authentic flavors! " (*Curated Review*)
