" I have mixed feelings about La Estrella Tacos #2. My first visit was great—excellent tacos. But on my second visit, the carne asada was tough and lacked flavor. The service was okay, but they were quite busy and it felt a bit chaotic. Hopefully, they can keep the consistency because I truly enjoyed the first visit. " (*Curated Review*)

" I stumbled upon La Estrella while searching for authentic Mexican food in Pasadena, and I'm so glad I did! The al pastor tacos are incredibly flavorful, with just the right amount of spice. You can taste the quality of the ingredients in every bite. The outdoor seating is quite nice, especially on a sunny day. The service was quick and the staff were cheerful. It's become my go-to taco spot — I just love the vibe here! " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited La Estrella to satisfy my taco cravings and was not disappointed. The atmosphere is relaxed, and while it may seem humble, the flavors are anything but. I enjoyed their fish tacos that were crispy and flavorful. The staff were warm and welcoming, enhancing the overall vibe. Although it's a bit of a drive for me, I'd definitely come back just for these tacos. The portion sizes were just right, and the prices very reasonable! " (*Curated Review*)

" Mixed feelings about my recent visit. While the ambiance and staff friendliness were commendable, I found the portion size of my chicken burrito to be somewhat disappointing. It was tasty, but it could have used a bit more meat to make it feel more worth the price. However, their tacos, particularly the al pastor, were incredible! If you're there, definitely get these. I could see myself returning for the tacos alone. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had the pleasure of dining at La Estrella Tacos #2 last weekend, and what a treat it was! The carne asada tacos were simply divine. Thick, juicy pieces of steak wrapped in warm, handmade tortillas — you could taste the quality. The outdoor seating offered a nice breeze, making it an enjoyable experience. The service was friendly and prompt. I must say, this place has earned a loyal customer in me. I can't wait to try more of their delicious offerings on my next visit! " (*Curated Review*)

" It was my first time at La Estrella Tacos. I ordered the carne asada and I have to say, it did not disappoint! The flavors were authentic, and the salsa added a nice kick. The outdoor seating makes it feel very relaxed. The only downside was the wait time, but the food was worth it. I can't wait to bring friends next time! " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited La Estrella a few days ago and had a pretty decent experience. I ordered the burrito with steak, which was good but could have used a bit more flavor. The outdoor area is nice for casual dining. Service was quick and friendly, but I feel there are better taco spots in the area. " (*Curated Review*)
