These tostadas were okay. They were a little too salty for my taste.

The tostadas were good, but not as good as I was hoping for. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

These tostadas were a disaster! The beef was tough and the toppings were soggy. I would not recommend this recipe.

Not bad, but not great either. I've had better tostadas.

I found the recipe to be a bit bland. I added some extra spices to the beef and it was much better.

The beef was a little dry for my taste, but otherwise the tostadas were very good. I would recommend using a different cut of beef next time.
