" I have to say Garcia's really needs to ramp up their service. The food is good; I had the enchiladas with green sauce that were tasty but the service was horrendously slow. My table was not checked on once after we received our food. If they can fix this, they might just have me coming back more often. " (*Curated Review*)

" I finally visited Garcia’s after hearing about it for years. The food did taste fresh, but I thought my order could’ve been more flavorful. The service was friendly but they seemed a bit rushed. The restaurant was lively but it did come across as chaotic with the noise levels. I’d like to give it another shot at a quieter time. " (*Curated Review*)

" Garcia's has a lovely family-friendly environment with delicious options for everyone, including vegetarian dishes. I appreciated the server's willingness to customize my order based on my dietary restrictions. I tried their veggie tacos, and they were delightful, filled with fresh ingredients. The only hiccup was the slow service during our busy lunch hour, but I will surely return for more! " (*Curated Review*)

" I can't say enough good things about Garcia's! I celebrated my birthday there and the staff went above and beyond to make it special. The menu offers a variety of authentic dishes, and the tamales were a highlight for me. The outdoor seating area was charming and perfect for enjoying their delicious margaritas. We had a delightful evening filled with good vibes! " (*Curated Review*)

" I recently visited Garcia's for lunch, and it was a delightful experience. Upon entering, I was greeted with warmth by the staff. I ordered the carnitas plate, and it was rich and flavorful, just like my abuela used to make. The ambiance of the place felt cozy and inviting, perfect for a family gathering. One downside was that the wait for the food was a bit longer than expected, but it was well worth it! I'll be back for sure! " (*Curated Review*)

" I went to Garcia's with high expectations after so much hype, and while the energy in the restaurant was great, the food was just average. I ordered the enchiladas and was surprised that they didn’t come with a robust sauce. Service was slow, and my drink went unfilled for too long. All in all, a decent experience, but I wouldn’t rush back. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had the pleasure of dining at Garcia's and indulged in their enchiladas. They were adequate but I expected more flavor based on the reviews I had read. The atmosphere was comfortable, albeit a little cramped during peak hours. I would try other dishes next time, as I did see others enjoying their meals. Service was fine and prompt. " (*Curated Review*)
