"Muy rico todo pero el servicio por parte de este empleado no muy agradable, no se si ya tenía muchas horas laborando o sus condiciones de trabajo no son las mejores pero le faltó brindar un buen servicio."

"Su sabor muy especial... el agua de horchata recomendable.. las salsas y pico de gallo muy ricas por cierto sabor unico.. el platillo fortachon un poco salado pero aceptable.. lo que no me gusta no te dan tortillas si nesecitas tienes que pagar por una orden.. y luego sus precios en general si estan elevados para la porcion que sirven e ingredientes. Su personal hay que capacitarlos mas. Deben de poner mas atencio al comensal..."

"Ha bajado por mucho la calidad de los productos en beneficio del precio. Decisión de cada quien si se exponen al riesgo. De los últimos tres consumos los tres terminaron mal en tema de salud."

"I pass Taqueria El Pastor into every day on my voyage to the Modelo Store down the street. I think that I'm the only person who ever buts beer in that place. It is just so over the top expensive. Tonight the band of older guys, the band you see everywhere downtown, the loud band with drums and xylophone, was there playing on the sidewalk. I wondered about the band's motivation. Possibly they just want to give Tapachula a music track. I took a photo. An offering plate appeared. They're supporting themselves with happy sing. I wish I'd given then more than the 12 pesos that popped into my fingers when I reached into my pocket."
