" We went to Lupita's during the weekend brunch rush, thinking we would have to wait a long time, but to our astonishment, it was smooth sailing! The staff was efficient even with a crowded house. I had huevos rancheros, and it was delicious! Also, kudos for their fresh homemade tortillas. I would recommend this cafe for a good Tex-Mex experience! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had an amazing meal experience here! Everything was fresh and tasted homemade. The cooking is authentic, and I felt transported back to my grandma's kitchen. The service needs some improvement; I waited longer than expected for my drink, but the food was worth it. I will come back to try more dishes! " (*Curated Review*)

" Wow! Just wow! The menudo is divine, easily the best I’ve had. The staff was friendly, and the place had a nice neighborhood vibe. I also loved their homemade tortillas that paired perfectly with the menudo. The only downside was the wait time for food, but it was hot and fresh once it arrived. Highly recommend Lupita's! " (*Curated Review*)

" If you're craving true homemade Mexican food, this is the place! The menudo is phenomenal with fresh handmade tortillas. I frequently dine here with my family, and each time we leave feeling satisfied. Recently, I ordered the breakfast plate, which was nicely presented and tasted fantastic. The only downside could be the wait time during peak hours, but it’s always worth it for the amazing food. " (*Curated Review*)

" Disappointing experience at Lupita's. After hearing the hype, I expected a lot more. The service was quite unresponsive, and the food was just okay. I’ll give them points for using homestyle recipes, but I found the flavors lacking overall. The tortillas did have a good texture though! I doubt I’ll be back after this visit. " (*Curated Review*)

" My family and I decided to try Lupita's for dinner, and it was a delightful choice! We shared an assortment of dishes, including enchiladas and tacos. Everything tasted freshly made. The enchilada sauce was a bit more like gravy, which was unusual, but it had a unique taste. The service was friendly; however, we did wait a bit longer than expected for our food. I will definitely return to explore more of the menu! " (*Curated Review*)

" A solid place for Mexican food! Lupita's serves generous portions and the food comes out piping hot. I enjoyed the carne guisada—super tender and flavorful! However, the homey atmosphere could use a bit of refreshing, but the warmth of the staff made up for it. I would eat here again for sure. " (*Curated Review*)
