" What a gem! I stumbled upon this taco truck and was blown away by how good the carne asada tacos were. They have a delightful char and are spiced perfectly. The only downside is that they accept only cash, which can be inconvenient. I waited in line for a while, but it was definitely worth it! I’ll be back to try their menudo next week after hearing so many good things about it. " (*Curated Review*)

" I recently took a friend to Taqueria el Primo after raving about it, but I was embarrassed to find out that the experience didn’t live up to my expectations. The tortillas felt slightly stale, and while the meat had flavor, it was nothing to write home about. I hope this was just an off day because I have had great experiences before. Fingers crossed for next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had been hearing all the buzz about Taqueria el Primo so I finally went, and wow, it did not disappoint! The authenticity in the flavors was spot on. I loved their carne asada tacos - they packed a punch, and the green sauce was fantastic! The wait was a bit long, but once I got my food, I knew I’d be coming back. If you’re a taco lover, you have to check this place out. " (*Curated Review*)

" Taqueria el Primo is my go-to spot for a quick bite. The tacos are fresh and all the salsas are packed with flavor. However, I did think the prices were a bit steep compared to other food trucks in the area. Even so, the quality of the food makes it worth it. The ambiance is pretty casual, so don’t expect a fancy setting. It’s more about the food here than the decor! " (*Curated Review*)

" Taqueria el Primo exemplifies what a taco truck should be! Friends recommended it, and I’m glad I tried it out. The tacos are made fresh right in front of you! I loved how juicy the meat was, but I would have liked to see them offer some larger seating options. It's a fun spot and I will be heading back with my family soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited this taco truck after hearing great things, and I must say, I was a bit disappointed. The service was friendly, but the food lacked the punch I was hoping for. I tried the quesadillas, and they didn't taste authentic at all. I much prefer the tacos, which are better. They have a few nice outdoor seats, but nothing too fancy. Overall, it's a decent spot, but I think there’s room for improvement. " (*Curated Review*)

" The experience at Taqueria el Primo was mostly great! The tacos were tasty and satisfying, although it felt like the prices were a bit higher than expected. I loved the salsa options, especially the green salsa. The only downside was the waiting time; they could improve that aspect. Overall, I'm happy to have tried it and would recommend it to friends!
