" Fantastic tacos! The al pastor was everything I wanted. The meat was juicy and the seasoning was fantastic. However, I do wish the service was faster since I waited a bit too long for my drink. Also, the outdoor seating could be a challenge on a hot day; more shade would make it a better experience. Overall, I could easily recommend this place to anyone looking for great tacos! " (*Curated Review*)

" Delicious tacos! My family and I loved every bite. We tried various meats including chicken and chorizo, and all were equally satisfying. The service was quick, and we appreciated the outdoor seating even though it got hot. The only downside was the crowd, but it’s as if everyone knows about this amazing taco spot. Super worth the wait! " (*Curated Review*)

" Tacos La Central is definitely worth a visit! The carne asada tacos were rich in flavor, and I particularly appreciated the handmade tortillas. The atmosphere was buzzing with energy, but the flies can be pesky at times. I found their service acceptable but could be refined with quicker responses. I'm looking forward to returning and trying their chicken next time! " (*Curated Review*)

" The tacos at Tacos La Central are a culinary journey right to Tijuana! I absolutely loved the adobada tacos, alongside some fresh guacamole that complemented the flavor beautifully. The service was friendly but could improve in efficiency. As it’s outdoor seating, be prepared for the sun. Overall, a wonderful experience I'd gladly repeat. " (*Curated Review*)

" The tacos were incredible! I particularly enjoyed the adobada, which was juicy and full of flavor. The staff seemed a bit overwhelmed with the busy lunch crowd, but they were still friendly and helpful, which I appreciated. There was a little wait but it was definitely worth it. Next time I visit, I might grab it to go because the flies were hovering around our table. Still, I can't wait to return and try their mulitas! " (*Curated Review*)

" While the tacos were food and transported me back to my time in Tijuana, the atmosphere left a bit to be desired. The flies were certainly distracting and detracted from the enjoyment of my meal. I personally found the service to be lacking, and I had to wait longer than expected for my order. That said, the flavors once the food arrived were incredibly rich and well-seasoned, especially the chicken. Overall, I'd likely return but with lower expectations for service. " (*Curated Review*)

" Tacos La Central offers some amazing tacos that bring back memories of my trip to Tijuana! I tried their adobada and it was bursting with flavor. The guacamole was a great addition, too. Although the outdoor seating was a bit hot without any shade, the overall experience was enjoyable. The only downside was the touch of rudeness from one of the staff members. However, I would definitely recommend visiting for the food alone! " (*Curated Review*)
