" I had mixed feelings after dining at Taqueria La Favorita recently. On one hand, the food was quite tasty, especially the fajitas which were well-marinated and grilled. However, I found the service was lacking; the staff seemed overwhelmed and missed a few details on our order, which was frustrating. If they can improve the service, it would elevate this place to a higher standard because the food alone certainly has potential. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had high hopes for Taqueria La Favorita based on the rave reviews, but my experience was rather mixed. The food did taste good overall and had that authentic vibe I was looking for, especially the fire-grilled meats. However, the service felt rushed, and it took some time for our order to arrive at the table, which detracted from the experience. I think with some improvements in that area, this place could really shine. " (*Curated Review*)

" Noting special about Taqueria La Favorita. The food was decent, though I expected more from their reputation. Some of the dishes came out lukewarm and didn’t have the seasoning I had hoped for. The service was okay, but it didn't feel very personal. I might consider trying it again, but next time I’ll stick with simpler options. " (*Curated Review*)

" Excellent attention to detail in the ingredients and flavors! The owner truly takes pride in the authentic recipes. My favorite was the pozole; it was rich and hearty, the perfect comfort food. The service was friendly but slightly slow; however, it made for a relaxed dining experience. I definitely plan on coming back for more authentic meals soon. " (*Curated Review*)

" While the food was good, I can't help but feel disappointed with the service. It was hard to get attention from the waitstaff and when we finally did, they seemed unfriendly. Nevertheless, the food was well seasoned and tasted fresh. I particularly enjoyed the refried beans and the homemade tortillas. The atmosphere was welcoming which added to the dining experience. I might give it another shot but would appreciate better service next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" What a lovely experience! While the food itself was commendable, the personal touch from the staff made it even better. I had the milanesa and it was cooked perfectly! The atmosphere is what you expect from a neighborhood taqueria — cozy and welcoming. Definitely a must-visit! " (*Curated Review*)

" While I enjoyed the meal, the service was quite sloppy and our order was mixed up — it felt impersonal. I had the flautas which were flavorful, but next time, I hope for a better experience. The ambiance is nice, but I feel it could be a bit cleaner. " (*Curated Review*)
