" Fantastic experience at Jorge’s! I took my family for a Friday night dinner, and everyone was thrilled with their meals. I ended up sampling a bit of everyone’s order. Their tacos are a revelation! My brother swears by the chicken soup and I can see why—it’s rich and flavorful! The environment had a comfortable family-vibe, and the service was beyond friendly. This restaurant is definitely an instant classic for us. " (*Curated Review*)

" Quite frankly, I was disappointed with my meal at Jorge's Mexicatessen. The burrito I ordered was bland, with no real spices or seasoning that one would hope for in a Mexican dish. It was a shame because, based on some internet reviews, I expected it to be much better. The service was nice; the staff was friendly and offered to help with the menu, but I just don’t think I can recommend it based on that burrito alone. However, I might return to try what others have raved about—maybe I just picked the wrong dish? " (*Curated Review*)

" I can't stop raving about Jorge's Mexicatessen! My husband and I stopped by for a casual dinner, and their chicken flautas blew us away! They were perfectly crisp, and the flavor was off the charts. I was especially impressed with the variety of salsas they offer—each one unique! The atmosphere was busy but cozy, and the staff seemed genuinely happy, which elevated our experience. I know we will be returning regularly! " (*Curated Review*)

" I sought out Jorge's Mexicatessen due to a craving for their chicken soup, and it was just as amazing as I anticipated! The depth of flavor was superb, and they even let me customize it with more jalapeños. However, my experience was slightly dampened by the chaos in the dining area; it was really busy that day and hard to find a place to sit for a few minutes. But, overall, the food was more than worth it! " (*Curated Review*)

" Last Friday we decided to order takeout from Jorge's Mexicatessen. What a mistake! I was so excited to finally try their famed chicken soup after all the praise I’ve heard. But when I got home, it was like someone forgot the seasonings! The actual chicken and vegetables were nice, but it was quite bland, no kick at all. To make matters worse, my husband’s enchiladas were way overcooked and dried out. There’s a chance it was just an off night, which happens to every restaurant. Nevertheless, I’m unsure if I want to give it another shot. " (*Curated Review*)

" Honestly, I wasn't impressed with Jorge's. I consider myself a bit of a taco connoisseur, and their offerings didn't quite meet my expectations. The tortillas felt a bit off, like they were pre-packaged rather than made fresh. While the toppings were tasty, they didn't shine like I had hoped. Service was decent, albeit a bit distracted. The restaurant was fairly clean but could use some decor updates! " (*Curated Review*)

" I must say, I was looking forward to trying Jorge's after hearing so much about their burritos. Unfortunately, I can confirm that while it is nice that the ingredients seem fresh, the burritos taste bland. They need to step up their seasoning game! The atmosphere wasn’t too exciting either, which is a shame because service was friendly and prompt. I won't be rushing back anytime soon unless I hear some promising updates. " (*Curated Review*)
