" We've been coming to Sombrero for years. The consistency in their food quality is impressive. We love the carne asada nachos; they are loaded and well worth the price. The staff knows us, and we’re always greeted warmly. However, it would be nice if they paid a little more attention to the cleanliness of the tables. Overall, still our go-to taco shop. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a disappointing experience at Sombrero. My order was incorrect, and when I brought it up to the staff, they didn’t seem concerned about fixing it. The food itself was decent, but the lack of effort in addressing my issue left a sour taste. It’s unfortunate because I had high hopes based on previous visits. " (*Curated Review*)

" Last weekend, I visited Sombrero and had the carne asada tacos. They were juicy and delicious, surrounded by fresh tortillas. It was a treat to eat here and enjoy the fun atmosphere with my buddies. I will return to explore more of the menu, especially with other items on my list. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had such a disheartening experience with the food quality. My burrito was lukewarm and seemed as though it had been prepped ahead of time. The meat tasted stale, which was disappointing because I had come highly recommended by friends. On top of that, the cashier was rude and disinterested. I don't think I'll be coming back anytime soon. " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited during a busy time, and despite that, my order was taken promptly. The service was friendly, and I felt taken care of. The salsa bar is a great added touch with so many options. I had the carne asada fries, and they were delicious! Will be back soon. " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited lately but wasn't blown away. The tacos I had were decent, though the portions were a bit smaller than I expected. The atmosphere felt welcoming, but the service was a bit slower than preferred. Might not make this a regular stop. " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Sombrero Mexican Food last weekend, hoping to enjoy some decent food. Unfortunately, my experience was just average. The atmosphere was nice, but I found the quesadilla lacking in flavor. I wanted to feel like I was getting a taste of true Mexican cuisine, but it just didn’t hit the spot. The service was okay but could be improved. I may give it another chance, but I’m not sure.
