" This place was a delightful surprise! The authentic flavors were unmatched, and I enjoyed every dish I tried. The burrito was huge, and the flavors were bursting with authentic Mexican goodness. The staff was friendly and helpful, which enhanced the overall experience. The ambiance was colorful and welcoming, making me want to stay and explore the menu further. Definitely on my list of recommended eateries! " (*Curated Review*)

" El Arriero is a solid choice for anyone looking for good Mexican food in Wilmington. Their tortilla soup was lovely, but it would be nice if they had more meat in it. Regardless, the flavors were authentic and fresh. I enjoyed the laid-back environment and wonderful employee service. The offers for large portions make it a good value for the price. I would definitely recommend it to others! " (*Curated Review*)

" Overall, my experience was positive. The guacamole was homemade and spectacular—one of the best I've had! The tacos were a little plain, but not bad. Service was friendly and prompt, and the atmosphere was lively, making it a nice, fun place to eat. I appreciate the different options available at the salsa bar and can see myself coming back to try more dishes. " (*Curated Review*)

" As a Mexican food lover, I have to say El Arriero Taqueria 2 has some of the most authentic flavors I've encountered in Wilmington. Each dish transports you to Mexico with every bite. I highly recommend the carnitas; they’re perfectly seasoned and melt in your mouth. The service was friendly, though it got a bit hectic during the dinner rush. Luckily, the staff managed to keep smiles on their faces. If you’re looking for real Mexican food, this is the spot! " (*Curated Review*)

" I was really looking forward to trying out El Arriero, especially after hearing so many good things. I ordered the shrimp tacos and a birria. The shrimp tacos were nice, although I expected a bit more spice. The birria, however, was fantastic—full of authentic flavor and served with a delicious consome. The only downside was the wait time—it was a bit lengthy despite the restaurant not being busy. Overall, I’d come back mostly for the birria! " (*Curated Review*)
