" Epically good! I attended a birthday celebration at Hercules and was truly impressed. We ordered a variety of dishes, including the taco platter, guacamole, and fried ice cream for dessert. Everything was fresh and delicious, especially the artisanal guac! The servers were really helpful, and there was never a dull moment. I’d recommend calling ahead for larger groups as it gets packed during weekends. Can't wait to go back! " (*Curated Review*)

" I'm definitely coming back for more! I took my family to Hercules after reading several reviews and was pleasantly surprised by the flavor diversity in each dish. The service was quick and friendly. The atmosphere is perfect for gathering with friends, which made our dinner more enjoyable. I would say the only downside was that it got a bit noisy as people started to come in for dinner, but that’s the life of a popular spot! Great experience overall. " (*Curated Review*)

" Never thought I would find such a gem in a small town! This place has got the right flavor and a wide range of dishes to choose from. The tacos were heavenly, and the homemade salsas were addictive! I was there last weekend, and I swear I can still taste the fresh guacamole. Prices were reasonable for Los Gatos, and they even had live music that night. I'll be back for sure! " (*Curated Review*)

" Beware! Busy nights can lead to chaos! Our last visit coincided with Taco Tuesday, and it felt drastically understaffed. We had to wait almost an hour for our order to arrive, but when the food finally came, it was delicious. The pork tamales were phenomenal! Just maybe avoid going on busy nights unless you’re prepared for a wait. " (*Curated Review*)

" Our large family enjoyed a celebratory dinner at Hercules last night, and it was a wonderful experience. The free chips and salsa were a nice touch while we waited for our food to arrive. Everyone loved the enchiladas and crispy tacos. The server was friendly, although a bit overwhelmed since they had a soccer team in that night. We could see they were trying their best. I'd definitely recommend this place for families; they have something for everyone. " (*Curated Review*)

" Oh wow! What a stunning place! I went here for my anniversary, and everything was perfect. The service, the atmosphere, and especially the food. The chef really knows what he’s doing. The flavors of the lamb tacos were to die for! I can’t recommend this place enough. It’s my new favorite place! " (*Curated Review*)

" Came here on a double date and had an excellent time. The chips were fresh and paired perfectly with our salsas. For mains, we got street tacos and huge burritos. Everything was served quickly, and our server maintained great communication. The only drawback was the noise level, but it was a Saturday night. Would highly recommend this restaurant!
