" I've been to El Favorito several times, and I've seen both sides of the coin. The first couple of visits were fantastic! However, more recently, there have been issues like wrong orders and food being less fresh than I remembered. Last week, my order was missing salsa and the chips tasted stale. It's such a shame because I used to love this place. I hope they get back on track because I'm rooting for them! " (*Curated Review*)

" I'm a little torn about El Favorito. The first time I went, the food was amazing, and the service was perfect. However, during my last visit, the quality seemed to drop. I ordered carne asada, and it was overly dry and tough. The atmosphere still has that authentic taqueria vibe, and the staff were friendly. But the inconsistency in the food makes me hesitant to return. I want to love this place, but I think I need to give it another try first. " (*Curated Review*)

" Simply put, El Favorito Taqueria is fantastic! I ordered a vegetarian burrito that was bursting with flavors. Everything was fresh, and I loved the variety at the salsa bar. The atmosphere is welcoming and perfect for a family meal. The staff were attentive without being intrusive, which made our experience even better. I highly recommend the grilled vegetable tacos if you’re looking for something healthy and delicious! " (*Curated Review*)

" El Favorito Taqueria is our family’s go-to place! The flavors are as authentic as they get, reminding us of trips to Mexico. Their carne asada fries are mmm-mmm good! Super generous portions and the salsa bar has something for everyone—from mild to spicy. The only downside is that it can get a little crowded, especially on weekends, and the seating feels tight. Still, the food is definitely worth it. We keep coming back for more! " (*Curated Review*)

" Wow! El Favorito blew my expectations away. The food is impeccably authentic; especially the carne asada burrito—it was heavenly! Each bite was filled with flavor, and I was pleasantly surprised by the huge portion size. The chips were fresh and crispy, and the salsa bar had so many options that I struggled to choose just one! The staff was friendly, and I left feeling extremely satisfied. Can't wait for my next visit! " (*Curated Review*)

" Overall, I had a decent first experience at El Favorito. The food was good, but not as authentic as I had hoped. I tried the veggie burrito, and while it was tasty, it lacked the fresh ingredients I'm used to from other places. The atmosphere was nice, but it felt a bit cramped during peak hours. The service was friendly, though not very attentive. I might return to give it a second shot to explore more dishes. " (*Curated Review*)

" While I expected a top-notch Mexican food experience, my visit to El Favorito was disappointing. The carne asada I had was bland, and the burrito fell flat in flavor. It was also smaller than I anticipated for the price I paid. I must say, the salsa bar had potential, but the options were underwhelming and contained way too many spicy options for someone who prefers milder choices. The staff was friendly, but I don’t think I’ll be returning anytime soon. " (*Curated Review*)
