" My visit to Mariano’s was pleasant. The place was packed with customers, which is a good sign! The pupusas were hot and delicious, bursting with flavor. The service was decent, though a bit slow given the crowd. I'll definitely return for another round of these flavorful delights. Plus, I appreciate supporting a local business. " (*Curated Review*)

" Best breakfast tacos in town! I’m a huge fan of their chorizo and bean tacos - so delicious. The portions are generous for the price, and the flavors are very authentic. A must-visit for taco lovers! I always leave satisfied and happy! " (*Curated Review*)

" I must say, Mariano’s has become my go-to spot for breakfast tacos! Their bean and chorizo is my absolute favorite. The portions are generous for the price, and the flavors remind me of home. The only downside has been the wait times during peak hours, but it’s understandable since good food takes time. I just appreciate the authenticity in every bite. " (*Curated Review*)

" After hearing good things, my family tried Mariano's for the first time. The food was freshly made and bursting with flavor! I particularly loved their salsa, which had a great balance of heat. It was a bit crowded, but the staff remained friendly and efficient. Special mention for the cleanliness, everything seemed to be in order. " (*Curated Review*)

" Every time I step into Mariano's, I'm taken back to my abuela's kitchen—the flavor is truly authentic! The salsa kicks it up a notch, and the homemade tortillas are definitely a highlight. Always a treat to dine here; I’ll be back soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" I've been coming to Mariano's for years, and it’s consistently good. The sabor is authentic, and I love their menudo during the colder months. Not much of a fancy place, but the food makes up for it. Service can vary, depending on who is working, but it’s always a welcoming environment. I often recommend this spot to friends! " (*Curated Review*)

" So I had a pretty unsatisfactory lunch at Mariano's. My expectations were clear-cut: authentic, flavorful dishes. Sadly, the food was bland and not fresh. The service was indifferent, adding to the discontent. Perhaps I’ll skip this in the future. " (*Curated Review*)
