" My experience at Los Alteños was fantastic! I usually don't expect much from a taco truck, but they have absolutely earned my respect. Each taco gives you a taste of true Mexico with every bite. The salsas on the side are a great addition, enhancing the flavors. It feels like a family-owned business, and I appreciate that personal touch. I'll definitely be returning for more! " (*Curated Review*)

" After multiple visits, I can confidently say that each meal here has been a delight! The tacos are packed with flavor and the freshness is evident. I do think they could work on the seating area, as it can get quite cramped during busy hours, but that's a small price to pay for such amazing food. The staff is always friendly and the speed of service is impressive—often within minutes after you order. " (*Curated Review*)

" I was quite pleased with Los Alteños Taqueria. The ambiance is nothing fancy, but it’s clean and inviting. What stood out was the food—excellent authenticity in the tacos, especially the carne asada. I ordered a burrito this time, and I think I might stick to tacos on my next visit, as the burrito wasn’t as satisfying as I anticipated. Still, I left feeling full and happy. The price is reasonable, making this a go-to spot! " (*Curated Review*)

" Los Alteños Taqueria is everything I hoped for and more! Authentic Mexican flavors with prompt service. My favorite has to be the tripa tacos—they are crispy and are everything I crave. The only minor issue was the seating, which can feel packed. But the food makes up for it, and I am eager to return soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" Los Alteños is up there among the best taco trucks in town! The food was spicy and tasty, and they clearly take pride in their cooking. I highly enjoyed the al pastor tacos; they have a unique seasoning that sets them apart. The only flaw was that the wait time can be lengthy, but the flavor more than compensates for it. All in all, a fantastic taco experience! " (*Curated Review*)

" Tacos from Los Alteños are like pieces of heaven! The moment I took the first bite, I could taste the freshness. The al pastor was juicy, and the salsas gave it diversity in flavor. My only complaint is finding parking near the truck during busy hours, as it draws quite the crowd. Nevertheless, I will keep finding a way to come back because it's just that good! " (*Curated Review*)

" I finally made my way to Los Alteños after hearing so many great things, and it did not disappoint. The tacos were plentiful and tasty! They had a nice smoky flavor which wasn't overpowering, and the grilled onions were a delightful touch. While the service was friendly, I felt it took a bit longer than expected because of the crowd. Still, every taco I tried was worth the wait! " (*Curated Review*)
