" After hearing great things, I decided to stop by. My experience was decent, but I felt the hype might have overshadowed the reality a bit. The tacos I had were good, yet not as exceptional as I expected. The highlight, however, was definitely the salsa bar – full of fantastic options! If you’re looking for a casual meal without any frills, this could work for you, but be prepared for a wait during busy times. " (*Curated Review*)

" My favorite taqueria in town! No other place compares when it comes to authentic Mexican tacos. The carne asada tacos are my go-to order, and they come bursting with flavor every time. I appreciate the variety on the salsa bar too! However, sometimes the service can be slow when they’re busy, but for such good food, it’s worth the wait. Don’t miss out on this local treasure! " (*Curated Review*)

" Came here after hearing great things and I was not disappointed! The tacos were incredible. It's been hard to find good Mexican food around here, and this exceeded my expectations! They really nailed the flavors. The service, however, was a little slow, and it took some time for our order to be taken. Despite that, the positive vibes and the food more than made up for it. I would recommend La Plaza to anyone wanting authentic Mexican street food. " (*Curated Review*)

" I must admit, I had very high expectations for this place, based on all the wonderful reviews. The food was indeed tasty, I could really identify the authentic Mexican flavors. However, my experience with the service wasn’t what I anticipated. It wasn’t bad, but it felt a little disorganized which caused some delays in getting our food. Despite the slight letdown, I left with a full belly and happy taste buds. I think with a bit more attention to the service, they could become a top destination for Mexican food in town. " (*Curated Review*)

" This place took me by surprise! The tacos were authentic and made with love. I tried the tripa tacos, and they were delicious! I also loved the various options on the salsa bar! Ten out of ten for authenticity. However, the space felt a bit cramped and could use some rearrangement to feel more inviting. I’ll definitely return for the fantastic food though, with or without improvements to the space. " (*Curated Review*)

" As someone who's traveled around Mexico, I can say this spot captures the essence of authentic Mexican food! The tacos are superb, with fresh ingredients and great flavors. When I visited, I tried the shrimp tostadas and they were absolutely divine. Just the right amount of seasoning and freshness. However, the layout of the restaurant could improve, and it's definitely a no-frills kind of place, but it just adds to the charm. Overall, I can't wait to go back and try more of the menu! " (*Curated Review*)

" Fantastic tacos! I was so impressed with the authenticity of the food here. I've lived in Mexico, and the flavors took me right back! The Al Pastor was my favorite, tender and full of flavor. The overall vibe of the restaurant is casual but charming. My only complaint would be that during peak hours, it can feel a bit crowded, but the food sure makes it worth it. I look forward to my next visit to try new items on the menu! " (*Curated Review*)
