" What a gem! I stumbled upon Hacienda Vieja during my travels and was pleasantly surprised. The street tacos are top-notch and quite authentic. The vibe reminded me of small taquerias I've visited in Mexico. I was particularly impressed by the generous portions and affordable prices. The staff was friendly and attentive, making our visit delightful. Definitely worth a stop! " (*Curated Review*)

" While dining at Hacienda Vieja, I found the portions generous and satisfying. The food was fairly typical for a Mexican restaurant but enjoyable nonetheless. Service was friendly but had a couple of hiccups. I wouldn't say it's my favorite restaurant ever, but I’d return for the portions and pleasant environment. " (*Curated Review*)

" Simply the best Mexican food I've had recently! The tacos were made with fresh ingredients, and you can tell that there's care put into everything they serve. I had some interactions with the staff, and they were polite and helpful. The atmosphere felt alive and full of good energy. If you're in the area, make sure to visit! " (*Curated Review*)

" I've heard mixed reviews about Hacienda Vieja, and my visit was similarly uneven. While the food was decent, it felt a bit bland and lacked authenticity for someone who has spent time in Mexico. I also noticed the service lagged when we needed attention during the meal. I would probably visit again, but next time, I'll be more specific about what to order. " (*Curated Review*)

" I was impressed by Hacienda Vieja’s variety of authentic salsas that greet you as soon as you sit down. The staff was attentive and made recommendations that helped us choose our dishes. The shrimp tacos were drool-worthy! Fresh ingredients made all the difference. I enjoyed the atmosphere, too, as it felt lively and welcoming. This restaurant is definitely a keeper in our rotation. " (*Curated Review*)

" Absolutely loved Hacienda Vieja! The atmosphere was warm and inviting, and the food was nothing short of spectacular. The carne asada was perfectly cooked, and the complimentary salsa with chips was a delightful start. Service was attentive, making our dining experience memorable. I'm looking forward to coming back soon! " (*Curated Review*)
