" The first time I visited Don Joaquín, I was so impressed. I definitely enjoyed their tacos—fresh ingredients, authentic flavors, and the right amount of spice! I noticed the atmosphere was welcoming and felt casual. I will be returning and looking to try more of their menu since I was genuinely satisfied with my experience overall. " (*Curated Review*)

" I’ve been to a number of taco places, and Don Joaquín stands out. The authenticity is palpable, even the staff communicates mainly in Spanish, which adds to the experience. I had the birria tacos which were juicy and savory. The place does need to focus on cleaning the condiment bar as it was cluttered. But overall, a great spot for taco lovers! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a very mixed experience at Don Joaquín. The atmosphere was lively, which I enjoyed, but the service left a lot to be desired. We waited quite a long time for our tacos, and when they finally arrived, they were underwhelming. The taste was decent, but not what I expected after reading such positive reviews. Maybe I caught them on a bad day? I would give it another try, though. " (*Curated Review*)

" I was a bit skeptical about trying a new taco spot, especially since I've been to so many around town. However, Don Joaquín exceeded my expectations! The carne asada was juicy, and the tortillas tasted fresh. The salsa bar had a nice selection, but I wish there were some diced tomatoes or pico de gallo for a refreshing touch. Overall, a great experience at a fair price. " (*Curated Review*)

" The tacos at Don Joaquín were recommendable, but my experience wasn't perfect. I find their atmosphere vibrant and fun, but on my visit, it was quite busy, leading to a longer wait for food. When my order finally arrived, it was worth it. The flavors were great! Just a suggestion: aim for consistency with service, and it could be perfection. " (*Curated Review*)

" We visited for a casual dinner and were pleasantly surprised that Don Joaquín lives up to the reviews I’d read. The tacos are flavorful and filling. I was impressed by the cleanliness of the dining area as well. The prices are fair, making it easy to go back for seconds. It's an excellent taco joint that I've already recommended to friends! " (*Curated Review*)

" I ordered a variety of tacos for a small gathering at home, all from Don Joaquín. First off, I appreciate their quick service when I picked up the order. However, some of the tacos didn’t hold up well on the drive. The flavors were good, but the tortillas got soggy. Next time, I might eat in instead. Overall, it was a delightful meal, and I look forward to trying their burritos next! " (*Curated Review*)
