" Having lived in California for years, I can say El Mayita’s tacos are among the best. The vibrant flavors and generous portions left me very satisfied. The only downside was the long wait to be served during busy hours—be prepared to patiently wait for your tasty meal! Overall, I highly recommend it for taco lovers. " (*Curated Review*)

" Came to El Mayita on a whim after seeing it packed with customers, which is always a good sign! I ordered the steak burrito and a side of nachos, and wow, the flavors were just amazing! The meat was juicy, well-seasoned, and just the right amount of spice. I couldn't help but talk to the chef about their cooking methods since I was so impressed. The only downside was the parking situation; it's a bit tricky since it's located next to a gas station. Nevertheless, I will certainly come back! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had high hopes for El Mayita but was left feeling underwhelmed. The portions were fine, but the tacos lacked the freshness I was anticipating. The salsa choices didn’t wow me either. Service was decent — there was a long line, but they were efficient. I think I might try somewhere else next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" El Mayita has become my go-to taco truck when I'm on the road. I love their birria tacos; they're rich and savory with just the right amount of spice. The staff is usually friendly, but I've experienced a couple of times where my order was slightly wrong. Despite that, the taste keeps me coming back! Just make sure to bring cash as they don't take card payments. " (*Curated Review*)

" I was blown away by how fresh the ingredients were at El Mayita. The guacamole tasted homemade, and it paired beautifully with my tacos. However, I did experience less-than-pleasant service. The person taking orders seemed overwhelmed and somewhat rude. Regardless, I'd come back purely for the food! " (*Curated Review*)

" El Mayita surprised me based on my first visit. The atmosphere was bustling and filled with the aroma of fresh tacos being made. Their horchata is the best I've ever had — sweet but not too overpowering. I enjoyed every bit of my meal. Their portions are incredibly generous for the price paid. I highly suggest checking this place out if you want a taste of authentic Mexican cuisine! " (*Curated Review*)

" I was excited to try El Mayita after hearing such great things, and I can say it lives up to the hype! I enjoyed their carne asada tacos—they had great flavor. However, I would recommend they improve on their service; I noticed the staff seemed a bit rushed and were not as friendly. Despite that, the food is worth the visit and I'll be back!
