" Great fast service with an even better array of tacos. I particularly loved the mulitas; they were fantastic! It’s a straightforward diner feel, but what keeps me coming back is the delicious food and friendly staff. During our last visit, I noticed their tacos do come with two tortillas which is not only authentic but also helps fill you up. You get good value for your money here, so I can't complain. Highly recommended! " (*Curated Review*)

" Highly recommend Tacos Gavilan! It’s a casual place with some of the best tacos I’ve had in the area. I was impressed by how clean the restaurant was and how careful they were with sanitation. The al pastor tacos are a must-try! They come with fresh pineapple that complements the flavor perfectly! I’m definitely coming back. " (*Curated Review*)

" Tacos Gavilan is my new obsession! The tacos are bursting with flavor, especially the carnitas! Plus, the unlimited beans you can serve yourself set this place apart from others. The place is always clean and creates a comfortable atmosphere. I can’t wait to try their burritos next. Highly recommend! " (*Curated Review*)

" What a gem! I found this place randomly and I’m so glad I did. The tacos are fresh and juicy, and they give a great bang for your buck. It's a casual, no-frills dining place but the food more than makes up for it. The only thing I could wish for is a wider selection of salsas to choose from. Will definitely come back soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" Too many good things to say about Tacos Gavilan! Their tacos are on point and I believe they do a great job at representing authentic flavors.

So if you're hungry for some tacos, this is the place to go! " (*Curated Review*)

" I was drawn to Tacos Gavilan because of the reviews, and it didn’t disappoint! Everything was incredibly fresh, from the tortillas to the meat. The tacos were flavorful, although I would have loved to see more variety in the salsas. The cleanliness of the restaurant and the quick service rounded out a great dining experience. I’m already planning my next trip back! " (*Curated Review*)

" This place has really stepped up! The first time I came here, I wasn't sure what to expect, but after trying their carne asada tacos, I can say I'll be back for more. The flavors are legit, and I love how clean and spacious the restaurant is! The staff is also very friendly and helpful. " (*Curated Review*)
