" I had high hopes for this spot but was left very disappointed. The tacos lacked flavor, and the quality seemed more like fast food than anything genuine. The owner acted rude to both customers and staff. I don't see how this place stays in business! " (*Curated Review*)

" My family and I visited Living Room Cafe & Bistro during our trip, and it was our biggest disappointment. The food was overpriced and the quality was awful. The owner seemed aggressive towards customers and staff alike. I left feeling cheated out of my money! Will never return. " (*Curated Review*)

" I was excited to try Living Room Cafe & Bistro due to its location but what a letdown it was! The birria tacos were more like cheap taco bell versions than authentic Mexican food. I expected so much more for the price, and the service felt rushed and inattentive. Definitely won't be back! " (*Curated Review*)

" We visited this cafe because of its convenient location, but the food was a massive letdown. The carne asada torta was filled with toppings that did not belong. The atmosphere had potential, yet it was ruined by the aggressive service. " (*Curated Review*)

" Came here on recommendation but I can't figure out why anyone would suggest this place! The tacos had almost no flavor and the rice was cold. I would recommend finding another spot to eat in Old Town, because this one does not meet expectations at all. Complete waste of money! " (*Curated Review*)

" Don't even consider dining here! The nachos tasted stale, and I can't even call them nachos because there was hardly any cheese. It was just a poorly slapped together plate. There's plenty of good restaurants in Old Town, save yourself the trouble! " (*Curated Review*)

" This restaurant really does not seem to care about the basics of treats customers well. I had a server who lost my order and found it to be an inconvenience to fix. The food was lackluster at best and overpriced for what it was. I can't recommend it. " (*Curated Review*)
