" The last visit was a mixed bag for me. I ordered the tacos de buche, expecting something divine, but they were not as fresh as I had hoped. On the other hand, the service was friendly, and the place had a welcoming vibe. Price-wise, it's super reasonable! I would love to return to see if it was just a one-off situation. " (*Curated Review*)

" This taqueria had a lot of hype, but I found it overrated. My order took too long, and when the food finally arrived, I was underwhelmed. The burrito I had was decent, but I've had better elsewhere. The atmosphere was nice, but it didn’t make up for the food. I probably won't return unless someone else wants to go. " (*Curated Review*)

" Having lived in Watsonville my whole life, I can confidently say that Delicias Taqueria is a staple in our community. The authentic flavors make me reminisce about my grandmother's cooking. I particularly love the carne asada tacos; they're packed with flavor and the tortillas are always handmade. The only downside is that it can get crowded during lunch hours, but it's worth the wait! Just a heads up though, they only accept cash, so make sure to come prepared. I plan to be a regular here for as long as I can. Highly recommended! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a great time at Delicias Taqueria! They definitely have traditional dishes that you can't find just anywhere. The chile rellenos were perfectly fried! The service was prompt and courteous. My only complaint would be the noise level; it can get pretty loud when busy, making conversation tricky. However, that won’t stop me from coming back—it’s obvious they care about quality and their customers. " (*Curated Review*)

" Let me tell you, the sopes at Delicias are second to none! Each one is crafted with care and filled to the brim with toppings. I can't emphasize enough how they bring home the flavors of Mexico. While I was there, I noticed the friendly vibe of the staff; they greeted us warmly and made us feel like part of their family. My only pet peeve was the limited vegetable options, but that’s not enough to deter me from coming back. I'm already planning my next visit! " (*Curated Review*)

" Attending this taqueria has been a tradition in my family, especially on Sunday mornings. The huevos rancheros are my go-to; they are always fresh and come loaded with all the toppings you can imagine. The staff is welcoming, and it's nice to see familiar faces. If you haven’t been here, you’re missing out on a true taste of Mexican breakfast done right! " (*Curated Review*)

" My mom and I love Delicias! It’s like stepping into a little piece of Mexico right in Watsonville. We always order the breakfast burritos—filled to the brim with fresh ingredients and flavor. The staff is always friendly, and they take pride in their work. I cannot recommend this place more; it’s a family favorite for a reason! " (*Curated Review*)
