" The first time I had tacos from Taqueria San Mateo, I knew I found my new favorite spot! The tacos were fresh and flavorful, and the portion size was impressive for the price. The staff were very kind and helpful, which made the experience all the more enjoyable. I highly recommend this taqueria to anyone in the area; you won’t regret it! " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Taqueria San Mateo first time last week, and it was an unforgettable experience. I ordered the adobada tacos and they were divine! The meat was perfectly spiced and incredibly tender. The ambiance left something to be desired as there is no indoor seating, just a small spot to wait for your order. However, the efficiency of the service more than made up for it. Would definitely consider it for my next taco night! " (*Curated Review*)

" My friends and I decided to try this taqueria after hearing rave reviews about their birria tacos. They did not disappoint! Every bite was packed with flavor, and the salsa was incredibly good. The only downside was the location since it's inside a gas station which made it a bit cramped, but the food makes it worth it. I would recommend it to anyone looking for authentic Mexican food on the go. " (*Curated Review*)

" The birria ramen was a unique twist that surprised me in a good way! They successfully balance tradition with creativity while not sacrificing authenticity. The restaurant runs out quickly on busy days, so be sure to stop by early! Even if it’s just for a quick take-out, the atmosphere is welcoming and the food is worth it. I’ll definitely return again! " (*Curated Review*)

" From the moment I walked into Taqueria San Mateo, I was greeted with the warmest smiles and a lively atmosphere. The quesabirria tacos blew my mind! They are rich, cheesy, and bursting with flavor that takes me back to my time in Mexico. The service could not have been better. This is the only taqueria I want to frequent if I get a craving for tacos in the future. " (*Curated Review*)

" Absolutely love this place! The quesabirria tacos are extraordinary and have set a new standard for me. The service is always accommodating, and they make sure your order is carried out smoothly. Even though there’s no indoor seating, I always find my way back without hesitation. If you're ever in the area, give it a visit! " (*Curated Review*)

" The tacos at Taqueria San Mateo are simply out of this world! Whether it's the carne asada, adobada, or birria, everything is seasoned perfectly. The staff is incredibly helpful and kind, which makes the experience even better. There's one catch – there's no indoor seating! However, don’t let that deter you as the food is totally worth it! I’ll be returning soon for sure. " (*Curated Review*)
