" I visited Tacos El Goloso today and the food was great! The birria tacos were fresh and delicious, just how I like them. However, I was somewhat disappointed with the service. The staff seemed overwhelmed at lunchtime. I think they should have better management during peak hours to accommodate customers. But overall, I will be back for the yummy food! " (*Curated Review*)

" While Tacos El Goloso has a reputation for great food, I had an uneven experience. My birria tacos, while decent, were not as flavorful as I anticipated. The portion sizes were fine, but it lacked the punch I was hoping for. The service was okay — no complaints, but no extra effort either. I’d consider trying a different dish next time as I believe there are better options on the menu. " (*Curated Review*)

" Visited Tacos El Goloso for the first time and loved it! The birria tacos were succulent, full of flavor, and came with a tasty dipping sauce. The female staff member was very helpful and guided us through the menu. However, they could use more seating since it's mainly focused on takeout. Parking is also a struggle given their modest location, but their food makes it all worthwhile. I will definitely return! " (*Curated Review*)

" Tacos El Goloso has created a lovely niche with its unique take on traditional Mexican fare. The carne asada fries were excellent — loaded with meat, cheese, and fresh ingredients. I appreciated the effort they put into the presentation, which was a nice surprise for such an unassuming plaza location. I definitely recommend their birria tacos as well; the flavors were deep and comforting. Plus, the service during my visit was friendly and attentive. " (*Curated Review*)

" Tacos El Goloso is definitely worth the hype! The birria tacos are delightful, and I was especially impressed by how juicy the meat was. I also tried the torta with pastor which accompanied the meal perfectly. The staff were cheerful and made good suggestions. The only downside was that it can get quite busy, making wait times longer than expected. Nevertheless, I am looking forward to coming back soon. " (*Curated Review*)

" Having been here a few times, I can say with confidence that Tacos El Goloso consistently delivers great food! If you love authentic Mexican flavors, this is the place for you. The owner is incredibly friendly and remembers regulars which adds a personal touch. I enjoy the carne asada street tacos the most — tender, juicy, and bursting with flavor! Just a word of warning: parking can get very busy, especially during peak hours, so plan accordingly. " (*Curated Review*)

" I finally decided to try out Tacos El Goloso after seeing so many initial recommendations! And it did not disappoint! The birria tacos had an incredible depth of flavor with each bite. However, I didn’t enjoy the mushy tortilla. Service was quick, which I appreciated, but I expected more from the ambiance. It felt a bit cramped as it’s a small spot. Still, I would absolutely come back just for those tacos! " (*Curated Review*)
