" Wow! El Antojo Taqueria blew me away with their authenticity. My experience started with the friendly greetings from the staff as soon as I walked in. I ordered the combination plate, and it was truly a feast! The flavors reminded me of home-cooked meals. Not only was the food top-notch, but it was served in generous portions, ensuring there were leftovers to take home. A definite recommendation for anyone who truly loves New Mexican cuisine!

" After several visits to El Antojo Taqueria, I feel it's important to share my experiences. The food is flavorful and authentic, though occasionally, I’ve encountered a delay with service. I particularly enjoy the carne asada tacos, which are always satisfying. Seating can be limited, but the warm environment makes it a delightful place to dine. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had high expectations based on recommendations but ended up disappointed. The food was decent but lacked excitement—more like what I'd expect from a casual diner than a taqueria. Service was alright, but I wanted more clarity on menu items, especially the daily specials. I might not be rushing back unless I hear better things. " (*Curated Review*)

" The food here is fantastic! I loved the empanadas and their homemade salsa is to die for. I did have a moment where the service lagged a bit during the rush hours, but even that couldn't mar my experience. The atmosphere is laid-back and welcoming. If you want authentic New Mexican flavors, this is the place to be! " (*Curated Review*)

" This was my first visit to El Antojo Taqueria and it was quite the memorable one! The high points were the flavor of the tamales and the warmth of the environment. The service was a bit slow, but the wait was forgiveable with how good the food was. I appreciate that they focus on traditional recipes; it really shows in the quality of their dishes. Definitely looking forward to returning soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" El Antojo Taqueria is an absolute treasure! It feels like you're eating at home, especially with how attentive the staff is. My highlight was definitely the stuffed sopapillas—they're both huge and incredibly flavorful! Even if the service can be hit or miss based on the crowd, the food quality keeps me coming back.
