" The tacos at Nico's are hands down the best I've ever had. The tortillas were fresh, and the carne asada was grilled to perfection. They had a nice amount of seasoning that made each bite incredibly enjoyable. Only downside was the small size of the dining area, but definitely worth the wait for a table! " (*Curated Review*)

" I have been coming here for years and the food is consistently good! Their carne asada fries are a must-try; rich in flavor and very filling. The staff is typically friendly, but I noticed the service was a little slower during peak lunch hours. Despite this, the experience remains worthwhile. Highly recommend if you’re craving Mexican food. " (*Curated Review*)

" After hearing the hype, I was slightly disappointed by the carne asada nachos. The meat didn’t have much flavor, and the portion for the price was lacking. However, the staff was friendly, and the place was clean and welcoming. I might give it another try, maybe for a burrito next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" I recently ordered the carnitas burrito and wasn't completely satisfied. While the ingredients were fresh, I felt like it was missing the authentic flavors usually found in traditional carnitas. Service was decent, and the place was clean enough. I might give it another try, though. " (*Curated Review*)
