" 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*)
