" The first time I went to El Mejicano was on a busy Saturday evening. The food was good but I felt the staff could have been a bit more organized. Everything took longer than expected - from ordering to receiving our food - but the flavors were there. The tacos were flavorful, but I think I prefer other places for consistency. " (*Curated Review*)

" After visiting El Mejicano multiple times, I can confidently say that this place is a hidden gem! The enchiladas are some of the best I've had, and the portions are generous without breaking the bank. It's evident that they put a lot of love into their recipes, making it feel like a homemade meal every time. Not to mention, the staff is incredibly friendly, always making you feel welcome. Highly recommend it! " (*Curated Review*)

" The food at El Mejicano was average for me. I ordered something simple, and it was a bit bland. The service was adequate, but I left expecting a bit more from what was described as an 'authentic experience'. I may have just picked the wrong dish, but I guess I won't be rushing back anytime soon. " (*Curated Review*)
