" While the food here is undeniably tasty, I've found the service to be inconsistent during my visits. Some servers are fantastic and attentive, while others seem less engaged. The ambiance is pretty standard for a Mexican restaurant — casual but could use a refresh. On the brighter side, the portions remain quite generous for the price, making it a solid option when you're hungry. Overall, a decent spot, but look out for those server inconsistencies. " (*Curated Review*)

" Food is very good, but the wait can get a bit long during busy hours. They have a solid margarita selection that pairs well with their delicious tacos. Service is friendly, although the attentiveness can vary depending on how crowded it gets. The decor could use a refresh to match the quality of the food. Overall, I’ll return when I have time to spare! " (*Curated Review*)

" I've been to plenty of Mexican restaurants, but Lienzo Charro stands out for its authentic feel. The food is incredibly fresh and well-prepared. I especially loved the pozole! Not only was it served hot and delicious, but the portion was enough for two people. The only downside was the slightly slow service at peak times, but the staff was really friendly and attentive. Overall, I had a great time and will be back soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" My family had a fantastic meal here last weekend. Everything we ordered was bursting with flavor, especially the enchiladas. They also have generous servings, which is always a plus for us. The service was prompt and friendly, making our visit even better. While the decor could use a bit of updating, it didn't take away from the enjoyable experience. I would highly recommend Lienzo Charro to anyone looking for great Mexican food! " (*Curated Review*)

" Although the food was reasonably good, I left feeling a bit disappointed overall. I ordered a bowl of pozole, and while the flavor was rich, I found a lack in the quantity of meat. The service was attentive, and they did offer complimentary chips and salsa, which was a nice touch. For an authentic feel, I think there are better options around. " (*Curated Review*)

" I can't express how much I've loved my experiences at Lienzo Charro! The food is absolutely delightful and true to its roots. I had their tamales recently, and they tasted just like my grandmother's homemade ones. The staff is always jovial and quick to serve, enhancing the comfortable dining experience. This cozy restaurant is perfect for family gatherings; the portions are more than ample. You guys have a customer for life here! " (*Curated Review*)

" As a big fan of Mexican cuisine, I found Lienzo Charro to be a solid choice. Their shrimp tacos were hearty and satisfying, and topped off with fresh guacamole. The atmosphere was lively but could benefit from a bit of modernization. The service standard was good overall, and the portions were more than satisfying for the price. " (*Curated Review*)
