" I visited La'au's Taco Shop last weekend and was a bit let down. The tacos were undoubtedly fresh, but they were quite small for the price paid. I got three tacos and felt like I barely had a meal. Despite my disappointment in the portion sizes, the flavors were great, and I enjoyed the spicy pineapple salsa. Service was adequate, not exceptional, but I appreciated how quickly my food came out. Overall, while I might consider a return for a quick bite, I think I might save my cravings for more filling options elsewhere. " (*Curated Review*)

" La'au’s has truly become my go-to taco spot! I love their unique mix of traditional taco recipes with Hawaiian flair. The tilapia tacos are fantastic — I suggest everyone try them! The service is always friendly, and I find the ambience to be quite welcoming. But I did notice that the prices have gone up a bit recently. While the tacos are great, I sometimes feel like I'm paying a premium for smaller portions. Overall, if you can overlook that, the experience is definitely worth it. " (*Curated Review*)

" My friends took me to this taco shop, and I have to say the atmosphere is fantastic, but the food didn't live up to the hype for me. I ordered a steak burrito, and while the flavor was nice, it was mostly filled with rice and lacked substance. The service was friendly, but waiting so long for a quick-casual place felt odd. I think I might try something different next time, maybe stick to the seafood options. Not a complete miss, but not what I expected. " (*Curated Review*)

" My partner and I had a lovely evening at La'au's! We ordered a lot, and the staff was very accommodating. The experience was pleasant; the fish tacos were fresh and had a nice kick. I love the concept of mixing Hawaiian and Mexican food — it adds such unique flavors. However, I was a bit disappointed with the pricing, especially with how small each taco was. I expected a bit more for what we paid. Overall, I would give it a second chance as the taste was truly remarkable. " (*Curated Review*)

" Having tried many taco spots in Colorado Springs, La'au's stands out for its creative approach. I tried their chicken tacos with a special sauce that was just divine. The place has a casual vibe, perfect for a quick meal or a laid-back lunch with friends. The prices are reasonable for what you get, but be prepared to grab more than one taco if you’re hungry. I can’t wait to go back and try more items on their menu! " (*Curated Review*)

" This is hands-down the best taco place in town! I make it a point to stop by every time I'm in the area. Their tacos are incredibly flavorful, and the combination of ingredients is just perfect. The service staff always greet me warmly, and the ambiance is relaxing with a nice outdoor seating area. I even brought my sister when she came for a visit, and she loved it just as much as I do! I highly recommend trying the fish tacos—they're unforgettable. " (*Curated Review*)

" La'au’s has a fun and exciting vibe that enhances the overall dining experience. Their shrimp tacos are seriously delicious! I really appreciated the fresh ingredients they use. I do wish the serving sizes were bigger considering the prices, but the flavors definitely made it worth a visit. It's a fantastic lunch spot, and the patio seating is a perfect touch. I’d recommend this place to those who are looking for something different! " (*Curated Review*)
