" Bar BQ Hernandez turns out to be a little slice of culinary heaven! The barbacoa tacos were hands down the best I’ve had in Tyler. The tortillas were freshly made which added to the whole experience. The portions were just right for the price, making it a great spot for budget eaters like me. Though it can get quite busy, the staff did their best to keep service speedy. This place is a must-visit for taco lovers! " (*Curated Review*)

" I was intrigued by the buzz surrounding Bar BQ Hernandez, and let me tell you, it lived up to the hype! The tacos de barbacoa were tender and full of flavor. I also ventured to try the tamales, which were delightfully wrapped in banana leaves. The homemade tortillas make a noticeable difference! The only hiccup was the wait time but definitely worth it for such quality. I'll be returning very soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a blast eating at Bar BQ Hernandez! I'm not usually a big fan of street tacos, but these completely changed my mind. The service was friendly and prompt, and I left feeling satisfied without spending a fortune! It's an excellent spot for a casual meal that won't break the bank! " (*Curated Review*)

" I enjoy Bar BQ Hernandez and often grab food for lunch. The flavors are consistent, and it's evident that they care about quality. I tried the mixed taco platter and loved how the flavors came together. The only downside is the tight seating area when it's busy. Definitely having takeout next time! " (*Curated Review*)

" Honestly, this was somewhat of a letdown for me. While I found the tacos to be decent, they didn’t meet my expectations. The chicken had a slight dryness, and the overall taste was lacking depth. I appreciate the effort from the staff, but I expected more based on previous reviews. Guess I’ll have to try a different taco next time to see if they improve. " (*Curated Review*)

" I am a taco connoisseur and have tried many places, and I can confidently say Bar BQ Hernandez is right up there! The flavors in their barbacoa tacos are phenomenal. The fresh tortillas make all the difference. The only downside was the cramped seating area, but that won’t stop me from coming back! " (*Curated Review*)

" Bar BQ Hernandez is a mixed bag for me. Some dishes are stellar, like the tamales and the chilaquiles. Others, like the beef tacos, left me wanting more flavor. Service is quick but could improve on being friendlier. I'd say it's worth checking out if you enjoy Mexican street food! " (*Curated Review*)
