" Had a culinary adventure at Tomatillo Express yesterday. Their tortas are a must-try! I ordered one with half barbacoa and half carnitas—so flavorful! It's always nice to find a restaurant that embraces authenticity in their dishes. Though the service was a tad slower during peak hours, the quality of the food is well worth the wait. I will definitely be revisiting this place soon, perhaps during off-peak hours to enjoy a leisurely meal. " (*Curated Review*)

" Finally visited after hearing rave reviews, and now I understand the hype! My friend and I shared a chicken torta and two different burritos, and everything was so tasty. They don’t skimp on portions either! The location is a bit unusual and could use some charm, but overall, I really appreciated the vibe and the friendly service from the staff. " (*Curated Review*)

" Tomatillo Express is everything I look for in a quick meal! The clash of flavors in each bite of my burrito was incredible! I also appreciate how they accommodate dietary restrictions—my friend was able to order a vegan meal without any hassle. The only downside was the parking situation; it could definitely be better. I'll be making this a regular lunch spot! " (*Curated Review*)

" This is my new favorite Mexican spot! The food is so fresh, you can taste the quality in every bite. Their tacos are generously stuffed, and the flavors are truly authentic. The service staff is friendly and polite, which enhanced the dining experience further. It’s a great option for quick bites, and the price reflects the quality—very reasonable! " (*Curated Review*)

" I've been to many Mexican restaurants, and Tomatillo Express stands out for its authentic offerings. The barbacoa is especially noteworthy, and their burritos never skimp on filling. Although it can get busy during lunch hours, the line moves quickly. I did have an experience with a less-than-friendly cashier, which left a slight mark on my visit; however, the quality of food more than compensates for that. Will definitely be back! " (*Curated Review*)

" I used to come here often, but I haven't visited in a while. Stopped by recently, and it still holds up! Their food remains as fresh and flavorful as ever. I enjoy building my own burrito with fresh ingredients. The portion sizes are generous, making it a fantastic deal for the quality. I must admit I've noticed a shift in the staff's attitude, but it didn't affect my enjoyment of the meal—I'll be back sooner rather than later! " (*Curated Review*)

" I recently stopped by Tomatillo Express during my lunch break, and I was blown away by the quality of their food! The carne asada burrito was delicious, packed with flavor, and made with fresh ingredients. The portions are generous and the price is very affordable, making it a great spot for a quick meal. I also appreciated the vibrant courtyard seating that adds a lovely touch to the dining experience. Highly recommended! " (*Curated Review*)
