" The cochinita pibil truly stood out to me. Every bite was rich and flavorful, wrapped in a soft tortilla. The salsas offered a nice kick that balanced well. The only thing I would say is there should be more seating near the truck. I always end up eating in my car, which isn't ideal, but the food makes up for it! Absolutely delicious! " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Tacos El Pelon last week and was charmed by the atmosphere. The taco truck was bustling with activity and the staff were incredibly welcoming. I ordered the al pastor tacos, which were juicy and delicious! However, the habanero salsa didn't quite meet my expectations; it was more watered down than spicy. Overall, the place offers a fantastic taco experience! " (*Curated Review*)

" Absolutely love the service at Tacos El Pelon! The staff were very friendly, and the food was delightful. I particularly enjoyed the cabezas tacos. They were so rich and flavorful, definitely my new favorite. I’ll return as often as I can. Highly recommend this taco truck to anyone! " (*Curated Review*)

" I don’t get the hype. The tacos are decent, but they didn't blow my mind. The service was okay, but I've had better. The prices are on the higher side for tacos, and I think there are better taco trucks around. I wouldn’t necessarily recommend it based on my experience, but maybe I just ordered the wrong items. " (*Curated Review*)

" As someone who has traveled to Mexico multiple times, I can say that Tacos El Pelon delivers an authentic experience. The birria tacos are simply divine, rich in flavor and served with a side of consome that enhances the dish. I was also pleased to see they offer a variety of salsas. Although the prices have increased slightly, the quality remains top-notch. This is definitely a hidden gem for taco lovers! " (*Curated Review*)

" Great food, but I need to mention the parking situation. Every time I go, it's a bit of a hassle to find parking. Yet once I finally reduce my stress finding a spot, the birria tacos soothe my soul! All in all, worth the journey for the flavor and the satisfying ingredients that never disappoint. " (*Curated Review*)

" Honestly, the taco truck has some of the best tacos I've had. The flavors are robust and each bite is full of zest. The birria tacos are my favorite. Unfortunately, they only accept cash which can be inconvenient, but if you plan ahead, it's absolutely worth it. I always make it a point to visit on Saturdays since they open early, making it easy for breakfast tacos! Highly recommend this spot. " (*Curated Review*)
