" I wanted to love Chivo, but my visit was less than stellar. The food tasted good, but I found my burrito a bit on the greasy side. Additionally, the staff seemed overwhelmed during peak hours, which made the service slower than expected. I may consider revisiting to try their breakfast menu, but it will depend on my next experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" Overall, my dining experience at Chivo was fantastic! The restaurant captures the essence of authentic Central American cuisine. I loved the variety in their menu options, which made it difficult to choose! I ended up with the burrito bowl loaded with toppings and enjoyed every bite. The only drawback was managing the crowd during peak hours, but the quality of food made it worthwhile. " (*Curated Review*)

" Eating at Chivo was a delightful experience from start to finish. The restaurant has a great setup with very authentic decor that immerses you in the culture. I ordered a mixed platter of tacos that included various meats, all which were bursting with delicious flavors. The container size was impressive, definitely more than enough to fill me up. Great food at a good price! " (*Curated Review*)

" This place is amazing! From the moment you walk in, the friendly staff makes you feel welcome. I ordered the adobada tacos and they were absolutely delicious—spicy and full of flavor! I also tried the fried plantains, which were the perfect complement. Prices are reasonable considering the portion sizes you receive. I can’t wait to come back and introduce my friends to Chivo! " (*Curated Review*)

" Authentic food at its finest! Chivo Taqueria offers flavorful dishes that take me back to my travels in Central America. I especially loved the fried plantains and the shrimp burrito, which was generous in size and bursting with flavor. The outdoor seating is charming, making it a great spot for a summer meal. The only downside was a bit of wait time during peak hours, but overall, a highly worthwhile experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" Chivo Taqueria is such an amazing gem! I loved their chorizo and egg breakfast burrito. The flavors were vibrant, and the presentation was wonderful. The portion sizes were reasonable, and the pricing was fair. Staff was friendly despite a slightly busy period, and they made sure to check in on me. A place I will happily visit again! " (*Curated Review*)

" I stopped by Chivo based on recommendations, and it did not disappoint! The tacos were bursting with flavor, especially the carnitas. The atmosphere is lively, making it perfect for a quick bite or casual dining. I noticed they only offer plastic utensils with takeout, which is a bummer for the environment. Nonetheless, I will be back for that delicious food! " (*Curated Review*)
