Los Angeles Times -
Thanks to the synthesis of adaptation, direction and ensemble — especially its leads — The Valet rewardingly finds its own way.

Paste Magazine -
The Valet parks itself squarely between the lines of established genre tropes, but with such precision and flair that you can’t help but be charmed.

RogerEbert.com -
The film resonates with deeper messages: the damage done by gentrification, the abyss between the haves and the have-nots, the poor treatment of workers by elites. You don't expect a romcom to explore these issues. But The Valet does. It works.

Variety -
Sweet-natured and good-humored.

|
The New York Times -
The Valet is an earnest crowd pleaser that unabashedly celebrates the bonds of a Latino family in a tight-knit neighborhood with rom-com aplomb.
