But honestly, in general, this feels much more like a place you order from for takeout or through Uber Eats or another delivery app. They have an agave bar and they've tried to make the place feel more like a restaurant, but the food itself just isn't that appealing to me. There are a few things that are decent, but overall, I wouldn't choose this place for a sit-down dinner. For me, this is more of a takeout/delivery spot than a restaurant I'd go out of my way to visit. PD their churros are good !!

The tamales de pollo were tasty enough that I finished them, and the beans seemed more homemade than out of a can. They didn't have that lardy taste and feel. I would have liked more lettuce, and maybe some sour cream, but probably best calorie-wise that I didn't have it. I wouldn't rush to go back here, but I'd eat it again if not much else was open to try.

My daughter really enjoyed her chicken empanadas, my birria quesadillas were good but not amazing. The meat was tender and the consommé was yummy, but the meat itself needed a little more salt and the cheese spread more evenly inside so it wasn't all just lumped in the middle. The maduros were great too but the sprinkles took away from it (they're chalky and just don't taste good), and the chocolate sauce was a pretty mediocre chocolate syrup. Overall a positive experience but if they fix some of those little things it would be a 5 star for me. Service was friendly and seating was comfortable.

We loved them so much after we left the stadium, we drove by to grab more empanadas for home and some horchata and sweet plantains. All were excellent! Prices were great!

Folklore has nice taco options for vegetarians. The hibiscus (flower) taco with slaw was so good. It's flavorful and hearty, and a satisfying meat alternative. We also tried the mushroom-spinach tacos with onion and cilantro; next time I would try this one with the slaw or ask for hot sauce or something to spice it up because it's fresh and good, but it paled in compared to the flavors of the hibiscus tacos. It's fresh ingredients and you can tell they make an effort in preparing, so I would still give it a higher rating. My husband had the veggie burrito bowl. He said it was filling, but did not have a variety of veggies. I suspect that meat bowls are really good. It could have also been that we ordered towards the end of the night. He said next time, he would get the hibiscus from Folklore. Chips and guac were a good side to share. Freshly made and tasty. Also I liked how they were packed in a red and white plaid food boat

I am quite disappointed with my UberEats order. Here's what…read moreI ordered: Short rib tacos - weird that it had a sweet bbq sauce to it...not what I was expecting and no where does the description include it. It wasn't too bad but the fact that a piece of bone was in my tacos made it all the worse (pic included). From 3-stars to 2-stars. Avoid. Al pastor burrito - I just don't know why it tasted so dry. I tried rotating it so each bite would incorporate all the different components of the burrito but overall, just disappointing. Maybe not enough guac/pico? 3 stars Additionally, I asked for extra salsa but was only given the standard one small cup included with the tacos. Extra salsa would've helped on the burrito so not getting extra salsa was a bummer. Still looking for great Mexican food in the area...have yet to find it and this place most surely wasn't it. Without the snafus, I would rate this place 3 stars. But the bone fragment in my tacos + not providing extra salsa as requested...gotta drop it another star.
