" Delicious tacos! I truly enjoyed the carne asada; it was seasoned just right and had the perfect amount of heat. The environment is casual and inviting. I was impressed by the amount of fresh herbs they included as toppings. It felt like a little slice of Mexico right here in Socorro. The only downside I noted was the limited seating outside, but it’s worth the wait for the tasty food. I will definitely return! " (*Curated Review*)

" If you're anywhere near Socorro, Taqueria Mi Jacalito is a must-visit. The tacos were phenomenal! I had carne asada, and it was juicy and well-seasoned. The staff is extremely friendly; they treat you like family. The outdoor seating is a nice touch, but get there early because tables fill up fast. This place definitely leaves a lasting impression, and I can't wait to come back! " (*Curated Review*)

" A gem in Socorro! This taco truck hit every note on the authentic spectrum. Tasty tacos with fresh and flavorful ingredients that made my taste buds dance! The grilled jalapeños were a nice touch. I would love to see an indoor seating area one day, as the outdoor spots can fill up, but that does not take away from the experience! " (*Curated Review*)

" I was blown away by this taco truck! The tacos were amazing, and the staff could not have been more accommodating. I tried a few different ones, including al pastor and barbacoa; both were delicious and packed with authentic flavors. The place has a great local vibe, and the outdoor seating area is perfect for catching some sun while enjoying your meal. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for real Mexican food!

They were some of the best I've ever had; just the right amount of flare without being overly spicy. The atmosphere felt welcoming, with friendly workers making you feel at home. If you pass through Socorro, this place should be on your list. I promised myself I would return the next time I’m in town! " (*Curated Review*)

" Just experienced the best tacos I've ever eaten! I had the barbacoa, and it was incredible—tender, spicy, and just bursting with flavor. The owners were polite and had a friendly smile giving it a homey feel. If you want authentic food, this is the place to go. There’s also a cool vibe with locals hanging out. I appreciate that there’s no pretense, just delicious tacos and good service. Highly recommend it for anyone looking for a quick bite! " (*Curated Review*)
