" I was there last week and the meal was excellent! You can taste the authenticity with each bite of the pozole. The service was friendly, though it felt like our waiter was stretched thin due to the crowd. The place can get small when it's busy, which adds to the excitement but can be a bit uncomfortable. Definitely ask for mo...re of their special hot sauce—it pairs beautifully with the food! I'll be back again soon for sure. " (*Curated Review*)

" I've recently tried Pozolería Doña María after hearing rave reviews. The restaurant certainly lives up to the hype! The pork pozole was an absolute treat, rich in flavor and made with fresh ingredients. The service was quick, and the place was packed, which I assume is a good sign! However, the cramped space made it slightly uncomfortable. If you are a fan of genuine Mexican food, put this on your list. I will be back to try the enchiladas next. " (*Curated Review*)

" This place has some of the best Mexican food around! I came in expecting great things based on the reviews, and I wasn't disappointed. The pozole is outstanding, with portions that are generous for the price. It’s a small restaurant, so it can feel crowded, but that just adds to the charm. The service was quick and efficient. I can't wait to try more dishes next time! " (*Curated Review*)

" Every dish I've tried at Pozolería Doña María has been excellent, especially the pozole! It has the most delightful combination of spices that takes you straight to Mexico. The ambience is homey, making you feel at ease while dining. The only drawback here is the sometimes slow service due to how busy they get, but the food is absolutely worth the wait. I am a fan for life! " (*Curated Review*)

" Simply put, Pozolería Doña María serves the best pozole and you should definitely try it! I loved how each bowl is deliciously hearty and how the flavors come alive with toppings. The staff is friendly but can be a bit overwhelmed when busy, which is understandable. If you're looking for authentic Mexican food with reasonable prices, this is the place for you! " (*Curated Review*)

Although it's a bit crowded during the meal hours, it just adds to the fun atmosphere! Worth every minute of the wait, and I can’t wait to go back! " (*Curated Review*)

" This restaurant is definitely one of the best for pozole in the whole area! The flavor is authentic and delicious. My only complaint is that the wait staff seemed a bit overwhelmed during the rush, but they handled it remarkably well. I'd happily return for my next bowl of pozole! " (*Curated Review*)
