" Great experience with friends! We ordered a bunch of different things to share and everything came out fresh and flavorful. The mole was rich, and everyone loved the tacos. The atmosphere is relaxed, making it a good spot for group outings. Service was friendly but scattered; we had to remind them about our drinks. Still a solid choice for Mexican food lovers! " (*Curated Review*)

" Overall, it was a fantastic meal, although we did have to endure a longer wait than expected. The authenticity of the food is commendable, showcasing the traditional flavors of Oaxaca. Each bite transported me back to my travels! The quality of the ingredients really shines, and the casual yet lively atmosphere enhances the experience immensely. " (*Curated Review*)

" A great casual eatery! I enjoyed my time here with friends, talking and sharing plates of tacos and quesadillas. Their hot sauces are a must. The food tasted like a mix of traditional and contemporary flavors—very delightful! However, we did face a bit of a wait before our food arrived. Overall, I'm coming back for more! " (*Curated Review*)

" Absolutely love this restaurant! The moment I walked in, I was welcomed with friendly smiles. The decor is lively and mirrors the rich culture of Oaxacan traditions. I decided to try the quesabirria tacos, and they were mouthwateringly good. Paired with a refreshing michelada, it was a meal to remember. The only downside was finding parking, but that’s a small price to pay for such a delicious experience. Can’t wait to return for more! " (*Curated Review*)

" What an incredible find! The mole dish here is unlike anything I've had before. The restaurant has a charming ambiance that makes you feel right at home. If you love authentic Mexican comida, this is a must-visit place. I've already spread the word to friends and family! Can't wait to get back. " (*Curated Review*)

" We love exploring different cuisines, and Culturas Hidalgo & Oaxaca did not disappoint. The dishes bring a taste of Mexico right here in Salinas. I enjoyed the mixiote, and my partner had the chicken tinga that was both flavorful and tender. Service was friendly, but we faced a little wait before our food arrived. Still a delightful experience overall! " (*Curated Review*)

" What a treat! From the moment we walked into Culturas, the energy was vibrant and welcoming. The dishes not only looked great but tasted even better. I especially loved their enchiladas and barbacoa tacos. The service was friendly; however, we did take note of a couple of mix-ups with our order. Nonetheless, I highly recommend paying them a visit for an authentic Mexican food experience. " (*Curated Review*)
