" I had dinner with friends and had high hopes for Mexico City Cafe, but I was met with mediocrity. The staff was friendly and attentive, but the food was disappointing in its authenticity. I expected more authentic Mexican flavors based on the name but the meals felt rather Tex-Mex. It was decent for a casual night out, but I wouldn’t label it as a solid choice for those seeking authentic experiences. Credit cards would help too! " (*Curated Review*)

" What a lovely restaurant! The ambiance was inviting and we felt at home immediately. I had the chicken tacos and it was wonderful! Fresh, flavorful, and ample. My kids even finished their meals without complaint, which is always a win! The only downside is that it's cash only. I can't wait to return and try more items from their menu. " (*Curated Review*)

" 1st time at Mexico City Cafe and it was a joy! The food I had was well-prepared. It was flavorful and the staff were welcoming. I ordered the flautas and was pleased with the generous portion size as well. The only hitch was the cash-only policy, but overall it was a relaxing night out! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a fantastic meal here! The atmosphere is warm, and the service was excellent. I opted for the enchiladas, and they were flavorful and satisfying. You could tell the ingredients were fresh. Although they operate on a cash-only basis, that did not diminish my meal experience. I will definitely revisit! " (*Curated Review*)

" Wow! I was not expecting such amazing food at Mexico City Cafe. I ordered the vegetarian burrito and it was filled to the brim with fresh ingredients and authentic flavors. The accompanying chips and salsa were also noteworthy. I could taste the freshness in every bite, which to me is an indicator of quality. The environment is welcoming, and I felt at home. Service was excellent as well! I will definitely come here again next time I'm in town. " (*Curated Review*)

" I finally made it to Mexico City Cafe, and while the vibe is commendable, the food left a lot to be desired. The tacos I had tasted generic and lacked seasoning. Their hospitality was good, but the menu needs improvement in terms of authentic flavors. Overall, it may not be on my list again. " (*Curated Review*)

" Don't go here if you're looking for authentic Mexican food. I had the enchiladas and they were essentially just cheese with no substance. Service was decent, but the food was bland and not satisfying. This place seems to cater to the tourist crowd rather than offering genuine Mexican flavors. " (*Curated Review*)
