" Just had a delightful lunch here after hearing rave reviews from friends. The horchata was refreshing, and my plate of menudo was hearty and flavorful. The owners have created a truly authentic feel in the restaurant. I felt like I was sitting in someone's kitchen! I can't wait to explore the rest of the menu in future visits. " (*Curated Review*)

" Though I wasn't extremely impressed with the food quality, the friendly service made up for it. I found the tacos to be underwhelming in flavor compared to what I expected. But, it was a busy Saturday and they handled the crowd well. I'll give them another chance and try different dishes next time. " (*Curated Review*)
