" I don't usually leave reviews, but Barbacoa Estilo Taxco deserves all the praise! Their barbacoa is super tender and flavorful, and each time I visit, it's consistent! You feel the warmth of the staff making it a wonderful experience. I would highly suggest it to anyone craving genuine Guerrero food, even if it may get a bit noisy from the crowd. The wait for a table was a little long but it’s a small price to pay for such amazing food. " (*Curated Review*)

" My wife and I decided to try Barbacoa Estilo Taxco based on recommendations from family. The food was genuinely good, and we loved the simplicity of the menu. The barbacoa was juicy and appealing, but the place can be very crowded. We had to wait a bit for a table but it was worth it. The staff seemed overwhelmed but did their best to accommodate us. Overall, a lovely experience aside from the crowding. " (*Curated Review*)

" Really enjoyed my meal here! The barbacoa was incredibly tasty and reminded me of my family gatherings back home. Fresh homemade tortillas elevated the whole experience. The only negative was the cash-only policy, which is a bit inconvenient. Aside from that, the staff was lovely and made us feel welcomed. I would definitely recommend this restaurant to those looking for authentic cuisine! " (*Curated Review*)

" Barbacoa Estilo Taxco is simply fantastic! The flavors are authentic and remind me of the meals I cherished growing up in Mexico. Everything is fresh, and you can taste the love put into every dish. The only drawback is occasionally slow service during busy times, but it’s worth the wait for such fantastic food. I’d recommend their consommé and homemade tortillas—so delicious! " (*Curated Review*)

" Barbacoa Estilo Taxco offers a true taste of Guerrero in the heart of LA! Every time I’ve visited, the barbacoa has been consistently amazing. The quality of the meat and the cooking technique really set this place apart. The atmosphere is laid-back, and I enjoy chatting with the regulars. Occasionally service can slow down during peak times, but the flavorful food is well worth the wait. Highly recommend especially for novice foodies wanting authentic Mexican cuisine!

" I can't say enough good things about Barbacoa Estilo Taxco! The barbacoa is consistently amazing and the flavors are so authentic. The service has always been friendly when I visited. It's a bit of a hole-in-the-wall but that's what makes it charming. The only minus I can think of is that their outdoor seating can be chilly. Still, it didn’t ruin my experiences there. Highly recommend for anyone who loves traditional dishes! " (*Curated Review*)
