" I had such a great time at Caliente! My friends and I stopped by after work for a casual dinner. The tacos were fantastic! Each one was loaded with toppings, and the flavor was spot-on. The service was friendly, and the atmosphere was cozy yet lively. Overall, it was a wonderful experience, and I would love to come back soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" I honestly don't know what the hype is all about. I visited Caliente and ordered a burrito which was good but not extraordinary. The staff was friendly, but it seemed disorganized. I also felt it was overpriced for what I got. Perhaps I came on an off day? I’ve had better experiences at local taco trucks. I may give it another go in the future but for now, I’m a bit underwhelmed. " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Caliente for the first time last week, and while I had a few issues with my order being wrong, the staff handled it gracefully and offered me a replacement promptly. The birria tacos I eventually received were delicious—definitely worth the visit despite the hiccup! I appreciate when restaurants take care of their customers well. I’ll give them another shot. " (*Curated Review*)

" Caliente has become my go-to place for Mexican food! The flavors of their tacos and the aroma when you walk in cannot be beat. However, the wait time during peak hours can be a bit longer than expected. It can get pretty crowded, but it's worth it for such delicious food. The staff is always friendly, which helps ease the wait. If you're in the area, don’t skip over this gem. " (*Curated Review*)

" Always a great experience at Caliente! From the time you walk in until you leave, the staff makes you feel welcome. Their nachos are huge and super tasty! I'm always stuffed after my meal. Great job with the consistency of quality food. I’ll definitely be back! " (*Curated Review*)

" I was excited to finally try Caliente after hearing rave reviews from friends. The tacos were as good as they said—full of flavor and freshness. I also enjoyed a refreshing horchata that complemented my meal perfectly. While the food was great, the service felt a bit rushed, and my order was slightly mixed up. Overall, I enjoyed my visit and plan on going back to give it another shot! " (*Curated Review*)

" Wow, I had the best dinner at Caliente last week! The shrimp tacos were divine. I wanted to try everything on the menu because it all looked so good! The staff was friendly and helpful with suggestions. This restaurant perfectly captures the essence of authentic Mexican cuisine. I would highly recommend this spot to anyone! " (*Curated Review*)
