" I came here after hearing rave reviews from friends, and I wasn’t disappointed! The tacos were tasty, though slightly smaller than I expected for the price. The vibe is relaxed with casual seating. The service, while friendly, was a bit slow due to it being lunch hour. I would give it another shot based on the quality of food alone! " (*Curated Review*)

" Came here after meeting a friend who recommended it. The birria tacos were tasty but I had a few doubts about authenticity due to the flavor. Service was friendly but a bit scattered. $$ feeling wise, might be better options out there, but the ambiance was pretty nice. " (*Curated Review*)

" An enjoyable dining experience overall, the tacos de birria were really tasty and worth the trip. However, I think they could improve their service quality as we experienced a relatively long wait after ordering. The vibe of the restaurant was lively, which I appreciated. " (*Curated Review*)

" The birria here was good, but I have to agree with previous reviews that the portions could be larger for the price. I also felt the atmosphere was a bit cramped and noisy. I had a nice experience overall, but I'm not sure it lived up to the hype. I wouldn't say no to coming back though! " (*Curated Review*)

" A great taco dining experience! The birria is flavorful and exactly what I was looking for. The place itself is nice but could use a deep clean. The atmosphere is perfect for a quick lunch or dinner; planning to come back soon. " (*Curated Review*)

" Lively atmosphere with very friendly service! The tacos de birria were delicious, as promised. However, I did find the parking a bit of a hassle and we had to wait for open spots around the block. Overall a good experience that I would repeat but maybe not on a busy weekend. " (*Curated Review*)

" Visiting for the first time was a delightful experience. The birria tacos were authentic and tasted fresh, but I found the service a little slower than I expected. The atmosphere felt like a family-run place, which I appreciated. Would definitely return but I hope the service improves next time! " (*Curated Review*)
