I don’t know what my family and I would do without Tinga!!! It’s our first choice for a quick night out with the kids (7 and 3)! the staff and Karim are lovely and always smiling.. the food is excellent and it’s just, overall, a great spot to have in town. Low key and kids friendly! Thank you for the great service guys!!

BEWARE! I hate writing bad reviews but I feel it is my duty as your fellow citizen to warn you of this public health hazard! We ordered Chicken Tacos, Fish Tacos and Guac and EVERY SINGLE PIECE OF FOOD was basically RANCID. I am playing a concert tomorrow and I fear not being able to make it through my performance because of the literal poison I have just ingested. WILD HORSES could not drag me back to this restaurant.

I come here routinely for lunch on my lunch period from school. This place is very accommodating and serves quickly. I’ve become a regular local at this spot over any other place in this area. I love this place. Burritos are an excellent portion size. The quesadillas have chicken that retain the perfect amount of tenderness. This place has a variety of toppings that are both traditional and unconventional you can add to make your meal pop. You also need to try the flan. I know a good flan when I taste one. This is a staple in the area that you have to try.Dietary restrictions: They have a tofu option on the menu if you are into the vegetarian options too.

The service and atmosphere of the restaurant was nice, but not the food. I ordered a chicken quesadilla to go, and it was bland. The quesadilla had a lot of chicken, but not much cheese. I couldn’t taste the cheese at all. The wrap of the quesadilla was a soft and saggy texture. The chicken’s texture was also weird. It felt mushy after barely even chewing it and had no flavor. It did taste like something after I put tomato sauce on it, but I shouldn’t have to put sauce on a quesadilla to enjoy it. I added another star instead of just one because the pico de gallo was very good, but it had to have been for the price and quantity. Also, they didn’t give me enough chips for the pico de gallo. It was a little bag filled with some chips. When my daughter tried it, she said her schools lunch tasted better than it. These other reviews say the food is great so maybe I was just unlucky.

Food is delicious and the portions don't leave me hungry while not being too much. Salsa always tastes fresh. Price is reasonable for such a posh neighborhood. Highly recommend.

Food was uninspiring. I had the BBQ burrito and it was like something you would get a chilis. Not authentic Mexican at all. Staff was pleasant but food disappoints.
