" I have mixed feelings about Tacos Al Pastor. While the flavors are great and worth the price, the seating arrangement leaves something to be desired. The staff seems a little disorganized during peak hours too. The tacos themselves are yummy, with a good variety, but I hope they improve the overall dining experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" I still can’t get over how incredible the shrimp tacos are. The flavors are so fresh, and each bite felt like a delight. Their prices make it easy to indulge, and I’ve found myself returning time and time again. The seating is limited but their take-out is super convenient. I recommend this place to anyone looking for authentic Mexican food without breaking the bank. " (*Curated Review*)

" Nestled in a quiet corner, Tacos Al Pastor is a gem for taco lovers. The flavors are vibrant and truly authentic, reminding me of my travels in Mexico. The carne asada tacos had a perfect char, and the salsas enhance the flavor beautifully. The seating is minimal but cozy, making this spot perfect for a quick lunch or casual dinner. Though parking can be tricky, it’s well worth the effort. I highly recommend this place! " (*Curated Review*)

" This was my first visit and it certainly won't be my last! I tried ceviche tacos for the first time here, and they were so fresh and zesty. The service was prompt, and the vibe is super casual, making it the perfect spot for a quick grab. I also loved their spicy salsa options—you have to try them! Highly recommend! " (*Curated Review*)

" I find myself craving Tacos Al Pastor more often than not! The flavors of their tacos are amazing—fresh, authentic, and pair perfectly with their salsa. I enjoy the tortilla wraps which taste homemade. However, the seating is limited, so sometimes I just grab mine to go. The price is also great for the quality of food! " (*Curated Review*)

" I wish the place had more indoor seating because the food is so good! The nachos were a letdown as they were a bit stale, but the tacos totally redeemed my experience. I definitely enjoyed the al pastor and will be back for more. Service was quick and the prices are very reasonable. " (*Curated Review*)

" I was disappointed with my recent experience at Tacos Al Pastor. The tacos were lukewarm when I got them, and definitely not fresh. The service was quick, but I missed that authentic taste I was craving. It’s a shame because I’ve had much better meals here before. I’m hoping this was just an off day for them.
