" What a pleasant surprise this little place was! The prices are reasonable, and the food tasted fresh, made with quality ingredients. The vibe was welcoming, but the service could be quicker when it gets busy. Still, El Mariachi is definitely worth a visit! " (*Curated Review*)

" El Mariachi is truly a gem! From the moment you walk in, you are enveloped by the aromas of delicious homemade food. I specifically loved the stuffed sopapillas, and the staff were so friendly despite being busy. A cozy, friendly place I will visit again! " (*Curated Review*)

" Simply put, amazing! The food is cooked to perfection each time. The pork tamale was rich and succulent, and the atmosphere felt like family. During my last visit, however, one of the servers seemed overwhelmed, which impacted the service timeline. Regardless, the food kept me coming back. I keep thinking about that tamale! " (*Curated Review*)

" El Mariachi brings such a comforting experience. The staff were genuinely welcoming, which makes a huge difference when dining out. The huevos rancheros I tried was well-portioned and featured the best green chile I’ve had in ages. Slightly slow during peak hours, but worth the wait. " (*Curated Review*)

" Such a quaint little spot! I enjoyed my time here, but the service felt a bit rushed. The food was decent, particularly the smothered burrito. Old school flavors made it worthwhile. A little more attentiveness from the staff would have elevated the experience. " (*Curated Review*)
