" The carnitas tacos are worth every penny and more! So flavorful and messy—in a good way! The staff is friendly, but I've had a couple of hiccups with my orders getting mixed up. Still, the amazing food outweighs those minor issues every time. Can't wait to return! " (*Curated Review*)

" I’m local and this place is my go-to for authentic tacos. I was impressed with the quality and taste. The tortillas were freshly made, and the fillings were generous. The service might lag occasionally, but the food is worth the wait. Can’t recommend it enough! " (*Curated Review*)

" I cannot recommend this place enough! The brimming bowls of sopes and tacos are to die for. You get a taste of true Mexican flavors in every bite. The owners are always present, which adds to the homey feel of the place. If you haven't visited yet, you’re truly missing out! " (*Curated Review*)

" I wanted to love this place because of all the great reviews, but I was left feeling disappointed. The carne asada fries were good, but nothing extraordinary. The staff seemed rushed, and I felt a lack of attention. I may revisit, but my expectations are tempered. " (*Curated Review*)

" If you're looking for authentic Mexican food in town, look no further! The carnitas here are among the best I've had. I also tried the chicharrones, which were crispy and flavorful. The staff was friendly and accommodating. The small seating area added to the cozy vibe. I highly recommend this place to anyone craving Mexican cuisine. " (*Curated Review*)

" Mixed feelings overall. I love the food, but the service has been inconsistent on more than one occasion. The carnitas are some of the best around, but there have been times where I've waited far too long to be served. I hope they can improve this as the food really shines when it’s timely. " (*Curated Review*)

" I stopped by for lunch, and I ordered the enchiladas. They were good but not the best I've had. The service was fine; the staff was friendly. I might stop by again to try the carnitas because I’ve heard great things about them from my coworkers. " (*Curated Review*)
