" Looking for a quick bite? Taqueria El Arquito is where it’s at! The food is affordable and delicious, especially their breakfast offerings. I tried the huevos rancheros and loved every forkful! While the dine-in experience isn’t the greatest as it’s situated in a busy convenience store, the food more than makes up for it. Service is friendly, and they work quickly, so you won’t be waiting long. I’ll definitely be grabbing more breakfast here! " (*Curated Review*)

" I stumbled upon Taqueria El Arquito while exploring the area, and I am so glad I did! The atmosphere felt cozy and real - just like a proper taqueria should. I went for the trompo tacos and they were nothing short of extraordinary. The meat was seasoned perfectly and had a delightful juiciness that is hard to find elsewhere. The salsas were also top-notch, particularly the red salsa that added a wonderful kick. Service was friendly, even if it was a bit slow due to the crowd. I left feeling satisfied and definitely plan to return soon with friends! " (*Curated Review*)

" This spot is definitely a hidden treasure in the city. The quality of their tacos is top-tier, and I was especially impressed with the flavorful trompo they serve. One thing to note is that it's located in a convenience store, which may throw some people off, but I gosh, don’t let that deter you! The people behind the counter were welcoming, albeit sometimes a bit rushed. Overall I’m incredibly pleased with my experience and will definitely return. Keep up the great work! " (*Curated Review*)

" A friend recommended this place to me, and I am so thankful for it! The food was fresh, delish, and the salsa was fantastic. I had breakfast tacos with bacon, and they were filled generously. The only issue I faced was that there isn’t much space to sit, as the establishment is quite small. But don’t let that deter you; take your food to go and enjoy it elsewhere! The service was cheerful too, I’ll definitely return to see what else they have on the menu. " (*Curated Review*)

" Discovered this place last weekend, and it was absolutely delightful! I ordered a variety of tacos, and every single one was incredibly delicious. The flavors were also quite authentic, reminding me of trips to Mexico. The trompo was the highlight with the delightful seasoning. However, the seating arrangement left much to be desired; it’s more of a grab-and-go spot. One thing I’d like to see improved is the efficiency of service during peak hours, as it took a bit longer than expected. Nonetheless, if you're after tacos with a genuine taste, don’t miss this spot! " (*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*)
