Solid Mexican, but don’t expect a fiesta.

Wahaca is the Mexican place your stomach might be craving, but let’s just say it’s not all guacamole and sunshine. Marta loved the atmosphere and the food was on point, especially the nachos and tacos. Kevin was apparently the hero of the night, making sure everything went smoothly for the first-timers. The vibe is chill, and you get a gluten-free menu, which is a plus if you’re dodging carbs. But be ready for a slight wait if you hit peak hours—good things come to those who wait, right?

Still, a few folks felt the service could be smoother, and the experience might feel a bit rushed if you’re in a large group. It’s a solid choice for a casual meal, but don’t expect it to blow your socks off. It’s more about satisfying cravings than culinary exploration.
