" Colita exceeded my expectations! Every aspect of the dining experience was fantastic. The cocktails were fun and creative, reflecting the fresh Mexican flavors we experienced. The staff was friendly and well-informed about the menu. My favorite dish was the tempura shrimp tacos, while the churros stole the show! It was amazing to enjoy a 100% gluten-free menu with delicious options. I cannot wait to return to this gem! " (*Curated Review*)

" I recently visited Colita and was blown away by the entire experience! The atmosphere is buzzing, and the decor is beautifully done. We shared several plates, and each one was deliciously crafted. One highlight was definitely the octopus tacos—they were phenomenal! Our server was friendly and attentive, guiding us perfectly throughout the meal. This place has truly become a favorite for special nights out; I can't wait to come back. " (*Curated Review*)

" I was super excited to check out Colita but sadly, it fell a bit short of my expectations. While the atmosphere was lively, I found the food to be on the pricier side for the portion sizes we received. The lamb barbacoa tacos didn’t have much flavor, and service was just okay. I think maybe on a less crowded night, I would enjoy it more. Might try again in the future. " (*Curated Review*)

" Looking for a place to celebrate my partner’s birthday, we decided on Colita after hearing rave reviews. And wow, it didn’t disappoint! The churros were absolutely to die for, and the sea bass tostadas were fresh and flavorful. The lounge area was cozy, and the lighting was perfect for the occasion. Our server went above and beyond, ensuring we had a fabulous night. I recommend making a reservation as it can get crowded. Would definitely return! " (*Curated Review*)

" My experience at Colita was fantastic! The atmosphere was lively, with a beautiful layout. We started with some cocktails, which were delicious. Then came the food, and the tacos wowed us! Each dish was thoughtfully plated and bursting with flavor. The churros were a fitting end to our meal! I left feeling satisfied and eager to come back again soon. Ideal for a date or outing with friends! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had the most delightful dinner at Colita last week. The atmosphere is warm and inviting. The food was gorgeous and tasted even better. I had the seared scallops, which were brilliant, and the churros for dessert were perfection. Service was excellent, they made sure our dining experience was enjoyable from start to finish. I’ll be back for sure! " (*Curated Review*)

" Visiting Colita was a fantastic experience filled with taste and great company! The tapas-style of serving allows you to sample various flavors. It was our first time trying there, and the staff was incredibly helpful in guiding us through the menu. The pork chilorio tacos and seared scallops were exceptional! Dessert’s churros rounded out what was already a memorable meal. " (*Curated Review*)
