" The enjoyment I had at Milpas Taqueria was overshadowed by a few cons. The food was authentic and flavorful, but the long wait times diminished my experience. I had to remind the server about my order, which was frustrating. Yet, the authenticity of their dishes is commendable, and I think it has potential. I’ll consider giving them another chance to see if the service can improve. " (*Curated Review*)

" I found Milpas Taqueria through a Google search and I couldn't have been more pleased! The ambiance was welcoming with a slight rustic charm. The salsa that came with the chips was not only fresh but perfectly spiced, enhancing every bite of my chicken enchiladas. The portion sizes were generous, and it was clear that authenticity was at the forefront of their menu. Highly recommended for anyone craving genuine Mexican fare! " (*Curated Review*)

" I can’t believe I hadn’t visited Milpas Taqueria sooner! The moment I walked in, the comforting aroma of spices filled the air, and it reminded me of my grandmother's kitchen. I opted for the special of the day—chicken mole—and it was absolutely divine! The depth of flavor was incredible; I simply could not get enough. The service was quick and friendly, and the owners frequently checked in on us. This spot is now added to my rotation for sure. " (*Curated Review*)

If you're around, definitely stop by. You won’t regret it! " (*Curated Review*)

The variety on the menu was impressive as well. I must say the owner is lovely and ensured we had a great experience. Our party of six left full and happy. I would highly recommend this restaurant!

" Milpas Taqueria should be on everyone's food itinerary! Their pozole is hands down the best I have ever tasted. You can genuinely feel that every meal is made with care and love.

" I had the pleasure of dining at Milpas Taqueria last weekend, and I must say, the experience exceeded my expectations! The ambiance was cozy, and the staff was friendly and attentive. I ordered the carne asada tacos, and they were simply out of this world, bursting with flavor and cooked to perfection. The homemade salsa added the perfect kick! My only minor critique was the limited seating, but it’s truly a hidden gem that I’ll be returning to soon! " (*Curated Review*)
