" I had hoped for a great experience but was left feeling just okay. The flavors didn’t match what I expected for authentic Mexican cuisine. While the portion was fair, I wasn’t blown away by what I ordered. I think I might’ve expected too much after hearing how great this taco cart is. Service was respectful and efficient, though it felt a bit rushed. I might come again to give it another shot. " (*Curated Review*)

" I’ve visited Pelayos several times and the flavors are consistently spot-on! I had the chicken tacos recently, which were juicy and flavorful. Pair that with their homemade salsas, and you have a winning meal. The staff is usually really friendly too, making for a pleasant experience overall. It’s amazing how they manage to serve such tasty food from a food cart. I highly recommend this spot to anyone who loves Mexican food. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a somewhat disappointing experience. I ordered tacos de carnitas expecting them to be juicy and flavorful, but they were pretty underwhelming. The portion size was fine, but the taste just didn’t hit the spot for me. The atmosphere is just what you’d expect from a taco truck—nothing fancy, which is okay, but I was hoping for a little more from the food. The service was alright but seemed rushed. I might give it another shot based on other rave reviews. " (*Curated Review*)

" Just had a not-so-great experience. I ordered a carne asada taco but it tasted bland and not at all like the authentic flavors I was hoping for. The portion size was acceptable, but the flavor was disappointing. Service was quick enough, but I can’t help but feel let down because of how much I wanted to like this place. I might give it one more try only if I'm in the area. " (*Curated Review*)

" The burritos from Pelayos are nothing short of legendary. I had the vegetarian option, and the variety of textures and flavors was impressive. The served ingredients were delightfully fresh, and each bite had a delicious flavor. I also appreciated that they had options that accommodate dietary restrictions—it shows they care. Although I had to eat in my car due to the lack of seating, I can totally see why this place is loved! " (*Curated Review*)

" Absolutely fantastic! The al pastor tacos were so flavorful that I would travel across town just to sink my teeth into them again. The meat was tender, and the tortillas tasted homemade. I also found the pricing to be right in line with the quality they provide. I will for sure be coming back for another round of these delicious tacos, especially since the service was swift and very friendly. 10/10 recommend! " (*Curated Review*)

" Phenomenal tacos—especially the fish ones! I visited last week and was blown away by how fresh everything tasted. The atmosphere might not be fancy, but the food more than makes up for it. The friendly service just adds to the overall experience. I've already told my friends they need to come check it out. This is a hidden gem worth stopping by! " (*Curated Review*)
