" Highway Tacos is such a hidden gem! I can confidently say they serve some of the best tacos I've ever tasted, rivaling what you'd find in Mexico. The toppings are fresh, and the house-made salsas are out of this world. I loved the al pastor taco; the flavors were incredible and made the experience unforgettable. Don't miss out on the burritos — they're just as tasty! This place has become my favorite stop during my travels. " (*Curated Review*)
