" The tortillas here are standout, clearly made with care and the best ingredients. You can taste the difference between these fresh tortillas and the store-bought ones. However, during my last trip, I encountered a long wait which affected my overall experience. Despite this, I still enjoy the vibe of the place and will be back for sure. I highly recommend the mixed meats; they are perfect when paired with the handmade tortillas. " (*Curated Review*)

" I've heard plenty about La Mano, yet the visit didn't fully meet my expectations. Although the tortillas were quite good, the service left me unsatisfied. I would have expected a friendlier demeanor for a place renowned for its delicious food. I still enjoyed the food enough to consider returning, but I hope for a better experience next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" I find the tortillas from La Mano Tortilleria to be exceptional. They have a unique texture and rich flavor that truly gives you a taste of Mexico. We've also purchased their carnitas for family gatherings and they do not disappoint! Every time they are more delicious! I appreciate the friendly atmosphere. However, I wish they would offer more variety in their selections. Still, this is my go-to for fresh tortillas and carnitas. " (*Curated Review*)

" I heard a lot of positive things about La Mano Tortilleria, so I decided to check it out. The moment I walked in, I could smell the delicious aromas of freshly cooked food. The tortillas were warm and the taste was unbeatable. Honestly, these are the best tortillas I've had outside of Mexico. I also enjoyed the friendly atmosphere, but could do without the loud music in the evening. Overall, if you're looking for authenticity, this is the place to be! " (*Curated Review*)

" I went to La Mano recently hoping to try their famous tamales, but I was let down. The masa smelled sour, and when we cooked them, they turned out hard. The rest of their offerings, especially the tortillas, were fantastic, but the tamales were a disappointing experience. I will return, but I might need to be careful about what I choose next time. Fingers crossed that the tamale masa experience was a one-off! " (*Curated Review*)

" La Mano Tortilleria is a great stop for fresh tortillas; however, I generally prefer to call in my orders because the wait time can be a hassle. Although I can’t rave too much about their staff's friendliness, the food truly speaks for itself. The atmosphere is nothing too fancy, but it’s clean and comfortable. " (*Curated Review*)

" I didn't have the best time at La Mano Tortilleria. While I enjoyed the corn tortillas immensely, I had issues with my order and was met with a nonchalant response from the staff, which was disappointing. I expected more from a place that has received so much praise. Nevertheless, I will give them another chance since the food itself was outstanding. " (*Curated Review*)
