" I had high hopes for this spot but was let down on my last visit. The carne asada was really lacking seasoning and the majority of my burrito was dry rice. They also got my order wrong, which was frustrating. While I can appreciate the value, the quality needs to improve significantly. Might consider trying again in the future if things change. " (*Curated Review*)

" Armando's is my go-to for filling, authentic Mexican food! I've enjoyed everything from their carne asada fries to tacos. The portions are generous, and the prices are reasonable. While the seating can get cramped, the overall experience keeps me coming back. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a heavenly experience at Armando's! The super-sized burrito and the variety of salsas were incredible. I found the decor charmingly kitschy, which added to the overall authenticity of the dining experience. I can’t wait to return and try more items on their menu. A must-visit for any taco enthusiast! " (*Curated Review*)

" I’m not one to usually write reviews, but I must give a shout out to Armando's. The food is solid, with big portions that won’t break the bank. The chicken enchiladas were flavorful, but the decor could definitely use an upgrade. Still, the kind staff and authentic recipes kept me satisfied. I’ll probably be back in the near future. " (*Curated Review*)

" From the moment I walked in, I saw the authenticity in the decor and menu. I had the chicken enchiladas, and they did not disappoint! The flavors were genuinely Mexican! Even though the seating area is limited, I truly enjoyed the experience. This is one of those hidden gems worth checking out! " (*Curated Review*)

" I’ve visited Armando’s numerous times, and I can confidently say their flavors take me back to my grandma’s kitchen. The rolled tacos are always crispy and satisfying. I find the prices reasonable, especially for the portion sizes. Although it’s a small spot with limited seating, the authenticity of the food truly shines through. Highly recommended for anyone looking for real Mexican cuisine! " (*Curated Review*)

" Unfortunately, Armando's didn't meet my expectations. The food was average at best; it seemed like they missed the mark on seasoning. I'll give it credit for the big portions, but the flavor was lacking. I'll probably try another local spot next time. Disappointing, as I had read positive things. " (*Curated Review*)
