" Came here because it was recommended for authentic eats, and I was not disappointed. The trompo tacos were heavenly! I appreciated the flavor and texture, as they really nailed it. But the atmosphere is lacking, mostly because it’s just part of a gas station convenience store - not the most inviting place. Still, the quality of the food makes it worth it. I would gladly come back again, possibly to try their breakfast options next. Service was decent and friendly! " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Taqueria El Arquito a few weekends ago, and it was a delightful surprise! The trompo tacos were recommended, and they for sure lived up to the hype. The flavors were vibrant, and the seasoning was spot-on. The atmosphere is a bit simple, being within a convenience store, but it really didn’t matter once I took my first bite. Service was prompt, and the overall experience was quite satisfying. Can't wait to come back for more tacos soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" I couldn’t believe my taste buds! The trompo tacos were out of this world. On top of that, the tortillas were fresh and doubled, which is a crucial detail for authentic tacos. I generally prefer to eat in a sit-down restaurant, but I would definitely make an exception for how good the food is here. However, I’d advise checking out other reviews about the service - it can be a bit inconsistent during busy hours, but you cannot go wrong with the tacos! " (*Curated Review*)

" The food is absolutely delicious! I love their breakfast burritos, especially the one with chorizo. While it’s located in a messy convenience store, I can overlook it for the quality of the food. The staff is also friendly but can get overwhelmed during rush hours. Do yourself a favor and try their red salsa – it's fantastic! I am very happy to have found this place in Dallas. Will keep coming back! " (*Curated Review*)

" The food here is worth the trip alone! I absolutely loved the variety of tacos offered. The lengua and chorizo were both flavorful and filling. However, I have to say the ambiance left a bit to be desired as it’s located in a convenience store and lacks any seating. But that's what makes it a cool local find! The workers were jovial and added to the experience. Don't let the exterior fool you; this place serves some authentic street tacos that locals rave about. Just grab your food and find a park to enjoy it! " (*Curated Review*)

" I have been coming to this little hidden gem for quite some time now, and it never disappoints! The tacos, especially the trompo, are simply the best! They have a great way of seasoning their meat, and the salsas they offer complement the tacos beautifully. It is authentic taqueria food without a doubt. While it is located in a convenience store, the quality of the food makes up for it. I would recommend this place to anyone who is genuinely interested in trying authentic tacos. It’s best to grab them to go and find a nice spot to relish them! " (*Curated Review*)

" Stumbled into Taqueria El Arquito on a rainy day and didn’t expect much, but wow! I had their chorizo tacos, and they blew my mind! The flavors paired so well together, and they even topped it off with an amazing avocado salsa that brightened the entire dish. The only drawback was the location - it’s tucked away in a convenience store, which felt odd to eat in. That said, I took my food to a nearby park and enjoyed it there. If you are looking for authentic street food, this is the real deal! " (*Curated Review*)
