" Derek's is okay, but I don't see what all the fuss is about. I remember much better tacos from other spots in town. The service was a bit slow, but the tacos were decent. Maybe I had high expectations based on the reviews? I would give it another try for some other items on the menu, but it didn’t wow me like I had hoped. " (*Curated Review*)

" Not impressed with Derek’s. I had the enchiladas and they were way spicier than I expected, almost inedible. The staff was friendly, but the food quality greatly disappointed me. Maybe I'll give it another shot with something else, but I can't recommend this based on my experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" I was passing by late at night when I stumbled upon Derek's Food Truck, and I have to say, it was a fantastic find! The chicken tinga tacos were so flavorful and came with a delicious avocado salsa that made it even better. The atmosphere next to the truck felt energetic and lively, and even though there were lots of people, the staff managed to keep things moving. My only complaint was that the table near the truck was a bit wobbly. But this won't stop me from coming back for more! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had my first experience at Derek's the other night, and I wasn’t impressed. I got the veggie taco and found it excessively bland – just lettuce and rice didn't do it for me. Service was okay, but the food didn't match all the hype. It wasn't the worst experience, but I can’t say I’d go back anytime soon for their vegetarian options. " (*Curated Review*)

" I have been visiting Derek's for years, and it never disappoints! Their chicken tinga tacos are top-notch, and I love how consistent they are with quality. The staff is friendly, and the outdoor setting creates a great atmosphere, especially during warm evenings. Highly recommended for taco lovers! " (*Curated Review*)

" Not my favorite experience. I went with friends, and while their orders were great, I was served the wrong item. The tacos I received were lukewarm and not very flavorful compared to what my friends had. It's a bummer because I'd hyped it up to them and thought it was going to be a hit. I might try it again but will double-check my order next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" Simply put, this is the best taco truck I've ever visited! Their suadero tacos are to die for. I’ve tasted tacos in several countries, and Derek's rates among the highest! Everything tasted incredibly fresh, and the portion size was generous. You won't leave hungry. The staff is friendly and efficient, which adds to the great experience overall. I'll be telling everyone about this gem! " (*Curated Review*)
