" Not my favorite taco spot... I found the flavor of the carne asada a bit bland, and the salsa was not memorable. However, the portions were generous, and the price is fair. I might give it another try down the line for their tacos, though. " (*Curated Review*)

" The food here is consistent and always satisfying! The carne asada fries are a must-try. The only downside is that the restaurant requires a bit of cleaning. Regardless, I happily return for the food! " (*Curated Review*)

" The flavors at El Tacoriendo are as lively as the staff! I loved the spicy salsas they offer. They usually have seasonal offerings which are worth trying. The inside isn't very fancy, so it may not be for everyone, but the taste speaks for itself. " (*Curated Review*)

" Always love visiting El Tacoriendo! The food has never let me down, always fresh and delicious. The only reason I don’t give five stars is the occasionally slow service. But the taste and value are worth it. " (*Curated Review*)

" Visited for the first time and I was taken aback by how authentic the food tasted! The salsa was fresh, and their carne asada burrito was to die for. It’s a bit of a hole-in-the-wall, and the decor could use an upgrade, but that won’t stop me from returning. The friendly staff made me feel welcome despite the rush. " (*Curated Review*)

" The portions were generous! I ordered tacos and burritos, and shared plenty with my friends. The ambiance felt comfortable, and our server was friendly even during the peak dinner hour. I'll be coming back soon. " (*Curated Review*)

" My heart sank a little when I saw the cleanliness of the place, but I decided to stay for the food. I had some of the best street tacos I’ve ever eaten. Just don’t look too hard at the surroundings! " (*Curated Review*)
