" My experience here was overall positive. The ambiance was lovely, and I enjoyed my meals. However, my dish took longer to arrive than expected, which was disappointing after a long day. The flavors were rich, but I would like to see a more organized approach to service. " (*Curated Review*)

" La Estancia is a fantastic spot! We ordered different tacos and were blown away by the freshness of the ingredients. The staff were also very accommodating. The atmosphere was lively, perfect for a casual dining experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" I’ve visited several times and the food is always phenomenal! I particularly love their green salsa. It's my go-to place for taco nights with friends. The only downside is that the seating is limited. So if you want to make sure you get a spot, arrive early. " (*Curated Review*)

" A cozy little establishment with a welcoming vibe. The service was excellent, and our meals arrived promptly. The burritos were huge and packed with flavor! I want to try their mole dish next time, as I’ve heard so much about it from friends. " (*Curated Review*)

" Fantastic experience overall! The ambiance at La Estancia is welcoming with a nice blend of decor. Every bite of food told a story - especially the chilaquiles and guacamole. I didn’t want to leave! Just a bit pricey for what we ordered. However, definitely worth a visit! " (*Curated Review*)

" Honestly, at first, I was hesitant because of some mixed reviews I had read. But I can firmly say La Estancia exceeded my expectations! Everything from the chips and salsa to the main courses was delicious. I tried the molcajete and it was bursting with fresh, authentic flavors. Our server was attentive, which helped everything go smoothly. I will definitively return! " (*Curated Review*)

" La Estancia is definitely a gem! My tacos were fantastic, genuinely authentic Mexican food. However, I did feel the service was a bit slow at times, which distracted from the overall experience. I highly recommend the mole chicken—it's out of this world! " (*Curated Review*)
