" Went in with high hopes after reading all the reviews. The food was pretty decent, but I felt the staff was overwhelmed leading to slower service. The carne asada was quite good, a bit on the fatty side but good. If they can streamline the front of the house, this place could be phenomenal! " (*Curated Review*)

" If you're in the area, make sure you try the chorizo and cheese dip at Los Cantaros! It was so flavorful and makes for a perfect starter. The ambience feels friendly and warm. My only critique is that the wait for our food was a bit longer than expected, but the quality made it worthwhile. It’s definitely a hidden gem I will be back to! " (*Curated Review*)

" What a delightful meal! We sat outside and had great service. The tacos were fresh, and the salsa options were delightful. Just be careful about portion sizes; some meals come in smaller servings than you'd expect. Overall, a great experience! " (*Curated Review*)

" If you want a genuine taste of Mexico,Los Cantaros is where you need to go! I tried their torta de lomo, and it was simply amazing. The bread was freshly baked, and the meat was tender and juicy. My family loved the ambiance, very vibrant and inviting. I’m definitely going back for more of their great food! " (*Curated Review*)

" My recent visit at Los Cantaros was pleasant. I ordered the quesabirria, and it was very tasty! However, the place needs to address the long wait times. It took nearly 30 minutes to receive our food even though it was not very busy. The staff were apologetic and courteous, which was a plus. " (*Curated Review*)

" Overall, I'm impressed with Los Cantaros! The flautas were crispy and served with delicious guacamole. The only downside was a bit of a wait for food, but they had a good explanation and were polite about it. Nice environment, would recommend! " (*Curated Review*)

" I gave Los Cantaros another chance and was delighted this time! The flavors were vibrant, especially in the chilaquiles we ordered. The service was attentive, which made the meal all the better. The only downside was they didn't have much in the way of dessert options. Will be back! " (*Curated Review*)
