" Clandestina is known for its margaritas, and I can attest to that! I enjoyed the classic margarita, super refreshing. Tacos were also good, though, a bit on the small side for the price. The environment is bustling, perfect for casual dining. My only critique would be the service; while friendly, they seemed a bit scatterbrained, which is understandable during busy hours. Worth a visit! " (*Curated Review*)

" Unfortunately, my experience at Clandestina wasn't as fantastic as I had anticipated. While the ambiance was lovely, I found the food to be inconsistent. I ordered the birria tacos based on all the rave reviews but found them to be on the bland side. The portions were decent, but the flavor just didn’t hit the mark for me. Service was friendly but slow, and I had to wait a while for my order. I may consider giving it another try in the future hoping for a better outcome. " (*Curated Review*)

" I’ve visited Clandestina a couple of times, and my experiences have been delightful. The food is consistently great! I often opt for their vegan options, and I’ve never been disappointed. The portobello tacos were bursting with flavors, and the margaritas are refreshing (I had a prickly pear one, superb!). While the atmosphere can get a little loud on weekends, it buzzes with energy. I find the prices a bit high but considering the ingredients, I feel they deliver satisfactory value. Looking forward to my next taco night! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a lovely evening with my partner at Clandestina last weekend. The outdoor patio is just gorgeous, especially when lit up at night. We started with the guacamole which was fresh, and that served with tortilla chips was a perfect starter. For mains, we both opted for the shrimp tacos, and while they were tasty, I feel like they could use a little more seasoning. The service was spot on though, as the staff were really attentive and friendly throughout our dinner. We ended with churros that were heavenly! I would say the pricing is a bit higher than other places, but the quality reflects that. Overall, a great experience, and we look forward to our next visit! " (*Curated Review*)

" If you’re looking for a Mexican restaurant that offers delightful dishes, Clandestina should be on your list! Our family visited for dinner, and everything was amazing. We tried several dishes, including their award-winning birria tacos and we weren’t disappointed! The flavors were vibrant and every bite was packed with authenticity. The server made great recommendations. However, during our visit, they were a bit slow on the drink orders. Overall, I can’t rave enough about the food quality; I’d return in a heartbeat for those tacos! " (*Curated Review*)

" Glad we finally decided to eat at Clandestina! I’ve heard tons of positive reviews and it didn’t disappoint. The team is super friendly and the ambience cozy. I had a variety of tacos that were quite good, especially the beef options. The cocktails – wow! I had a spicy margarita that was absolutely scrumptious. The food price seemed reasonable considering the quality. I’ll definitely return and bring my family next time! " (*Curated Review*)

" I stumbled upon Clandestina and it was a pleasant surprise! The environment was warm and inviting. I ordered a combination platter and got a taste of various items. Everything was flavorful, and I especially enjoyed the refried beans. However, the staff seemed a little busy; my drink order did take a while. But all in all, the food made up for the wait; I will be returning! " (*Curated Review*)
