" I recently visited Castillo Taqueria and I was blown away by the variety of authentic dishes available. I decided to go for the huarache and added chorizo, which was bursting with flavor! The charro beans were a lovely addition, and the staff made sure my meal was just right. They even offered me an extra side, which I appreciated. Though it was slightly busy and took a bit longer than expected, the food was definitely worth the wait. I also noticed there were so many repeat customers, which speaks volumes about their reputation. It's no wonder why this food truck has such a dedicated following! The prices were reasonable, making it accessible for anyone looking to enjoy great Mexican food. I will definitely return on my next trip to Houston! " (*Curated Review*)

" Castillo Taqueria is a great spot for tacos! I loved the spicy salsa they offered with my order. The staff were attentive, making sure I felt welcomed. However, I thought the portions could be a bit larger, given the price point. Still, I'll be back for the flavors! " (*Curated Review*)

" Absolutely love it! The flavors are so rich and authentic, it takes me back to my travels in Mexico! The staff is super friendly, and they always remember me. Special shoutout to the quesabirrias – you have to try them! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had high hopes for Castillo Taqueria. While the tacos I ordered were decent, I found them to be underwhelming compared to some of the other places I've been to. The service was friendly, but overall the meal felt mediocre. I think I'll explore other options next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" This place is just okay. The food didn’t blow my mind, and while I enjoyed the service, it didn't stand out. I think I expected more based on previous reviews. " (*Curated Review*)

" Such a wonderful place to grab a bite! The authentic Mexican flavors are a treat and the customer service is top-notch. I always feel welcome here. Highly recommend the tacos de barbacoa! " (*Curated Review*)

" I didn’t find the tacos that special honestly. They were a bit overpriced for what they offered. I was expecting a full flavor explosion but it fell flat. The service was polite but the food didn’t justify the cost in my eyes. " (*Curated Review*)
