" Achiote Grill is one of those small, unassuming places that serves amazing food. I had the chicken tamales, and they were incredibly flavorful and fresh. The owners clearly put a lot of love into their dishes, which makes dining here a real treat. " (*Curated Review*)

" Not the best experience, but the food was decent enough. The decor gave a homely feel, but the fish tacos were a little dry for my taste. Service was quick, but I think they could improve on attentiveness. " (*Curated Review*)

" I wouldn't have thought this little restaurant located in a business park would offer such amazing cuisine! The steak burrito was fabulous and stuffed full of delicious, fresh ingredients. The coffee was surprisingly good as well! I’ll be back soon to try more items on their menu. " (*Curated Review*)

" I hesitated to try Achiote Grill because it looks like a small hole in the wall, but boy, was I wrong! This place has some of the freshest, most delicious meals I've ever experienced. I go there primarily for their tamales which are homemade and every bit worth the price. The owners are genuine, and their care for food and service is evident in every bite. " (*Curated Review*)

" Fantastic little restaurant! I've been to Achiote Grill several times now, and I've never been let down. The vibe is comfy, and I love how they have unique art on the walls. I always go for the shrimp burrito, and it never disappoints! " (*Curated Review*)

" This place is great for a quick, delicious meal. The breakfast burritos are my go-to. They are filling and flavorful! The owners pay attention to detail, and you can taste the freshness in every bite. I'd put this in my top spots for breakfast in Huntington Beach! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a disappointing experience overall. The tacos I ordered were dry and seemed like they had been sitting out for a while. The staff was nice, but I left feeling unsatisfied and won't be returning. However, I could see other patrons enjoying their meals, so maybe I just had an off day. " (*Curated Review*)
