La Curva Taqueria San Juan — Restaurant in San Juan

Where do I start.....there's just so many things wrong with this place.

This place has been opened for so many years, but it's time it gets shut down.

The menu items are quite simple..but I will go one by one why this place is 1 star quality.

One, the meat is not cooked to order. When you enter, you can plainly see the cook has already done the meat and simply has it in a tray waiting to fill out orders. They basically only heat up your tortilla when you make the order...which isn't bad but when you charge $10 for basically a Stripes fresh-quality made taco.... overpriced.

I ordered tacos de trompo...and check the pics for the amount of grease and oil they dripped. The meat was already pre-cooked, so they weren't hot...and they dripped grease... unenjoyable.

My wife had the espadas and her meat looked under seasoned, lukewarm, and were not worth their price.

They also serve the traditional charro beans...but only about 2/3 full. I guess they're trying to save a few pennies on the charro beans, and make it obvious by only filling the cup up 2/3 of the way.

I had a similar experience with La Curva in Mission and never returned...this location was worse.

There is a taqueria literally right next to them...I recommend you check them out. La Curva needs to straighten themselves...

This restaurant has ample seating available. In this restaurant everything is a la carte, there are no combos available. Also one must go to the cashier to place your order and pay for the food before it is made. It doesn't matter if it's a dine-in or to-go order. They call out your name so you can pick up your order. There is a serving station at the front with an assortment of salsas, limes, extra cilantro, or onions. The tacos & the charro beans were full of flavor. Only thing I didnt like was that once you are seated at your table, no one comes around to check up on you. If there is a problem with your food or if you need anything else, one must get up and go talk to the...

Being my first time at La Curva it is pleasing to the eye. Simple vintage decor. Love the ironwork art on the back wall of mariaches. Aroma as you walk in definitely makes you hungry. I ordered tacos normales de bistake for my kiddos n hubby. I ordered the tacos de R.B. and all I can say is.... O M Goodness! If u love avocado with ur tacos.. this is a great choice. Add Cilantro and Sauteed Onions to this and .. delish-cho-cho.. 😂 finger licking. Staff are wearing masks n following guidelines for COVID. I truly recommend this nice small restaurant. Will be coming back soon. Thank...
