" I decided to stop by Valerie’s based on a friend’s recommendation and I was not disappointed! The shrimp tacos were prepared beautifully and the flavors were spot on. The homemade corn tortillas made such a difference. The ambiance had a distinct local charm that's hard to find. I'll certainly be back as the menu offers so much more! They really nail the whole Mexican vibe. " (*Curated Review*)

" Absolutely love this taco stand! It feels like you’re getting authentic Mexican cuisine in a warm, friendly environment. The fish tacos I ordered were incredibly fresh and well-prepared. The atmosphere has a fun vibe, and you can see the kitchen at work, which I really appreciated. I also enjoyed their aguas frescas that perfectly complemented my meal. It’s apparent they care about the quality of their food here. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had an amazing experience at Valerie's. Their carne asada fries were a meal in themselves; huge portion with a ton of flavor! Loved how fresh everything tasted, and the staff was super accommodating with my dietary needs. The atmosphere is lively, but it can get a bit cramped when they have a lot of customers. Still, I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for authentic Mexican food. " (*Curated Review*)

" Stopped by for a quick bite and ended up having my best taco experience yet! The carne asada seemed to be marinated for hours; it was tender and bursting with flavor. The tortillas were homemade and perfectly complimented the fillings. I appreciate that they focus on authenticity, and the staff was friendly and helpful in making suggestions. Will definitely be a repeat customer! Great spot for anyone craving true Mexican tacos! " (*Curated Review*)

" As a taco enthusiast, I've tried many places, but Valerie's stands out! The flavor of the carne asada was remarkable and so well-seasoned. They use fresh ingredients that you can really taste. The environment could use some leveling up, but the true star here is undeniably the food. I'll come back time and time again. " (*Curated Review*)
