" This place has quickly become my favorite lunch spot! I love their pollo nachos; the chicken is so tender and flavorful, and the salsa adds a perfect kick. Plus, the prices are reasonable, considering the large portions. Sometimes the line can be long during lunch hour, but it's worth the wait. Can't wait to go back! " (*Curated Review*)

" I don’t understand the hype surrounding this place. Although the tacos are affordable, I was disappointed with the flavor. The carne asada was a bit dry, and the beans tasted canned. The staff was friendly, but I expected more from the food. I likely won't return. " (*Curated Review*)

" If you're craving authentic tacos, look no further! Armando's was recommended by a friend, and I must say, they did not disappoint. The tacos have a homemade taste that truly showcases the flavors of Mexico. I had the carne asada and the pollo tacos, and both were excellent! I also enjoyed their fresh salsa. The only downside was the limited seating, but the food makes up for it. " (*Curated Review*)

" Disappointed with my visit. I tried the bean and cheese burrito and while it was big, it was lacking flavor. The beans didn't seem to be freshly made, and the cheese was cold. The service was okay but not particularly remarkable. I might give them another chance and try something different. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had high expectations but left feeling unimpressed. The ingredients felt pre-packaged and lacked the home-cooked feel that I was craving. The service was decent, but I probably won't return. " (*Curated Review*)

" Though I enjoyed the ambiance and the staff was friendly, I was let down by the food. The tacos seemed average and didn't really stand out compared to other taco shops I've been to. I expected more based on the recommendations. " (*Curated Review*)

" I was thrilled by the flavors at Armando's! They have an amazing selection of tacos, and I highly recommend the pork. It’s tender, juicy, and never dry. The service was incredible, and I love supporting a place that feels so genuine. Absolutely returning soon! " (*Curated Review*)
