" Unfortunately, our experience didn't live up to the hype. The food was fine but not spectacular. I found the tacos too greasy for my liking and the service was just average. The place is small and a bit cramped, so it wasn't very comfortable. I might give it another shot on a busier day, but I left feeling neither disappointed nor impressed. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had mixed feelings about my visit. While the tacos were good and authentic, I faced a bit of confusion with the pricing as the menu didn’t reflect what I was charged. The ambiance was relaxed, and the staff was friendly, but I felt that they could improve communication on prices. Overall, good food, but better transparency is needed. " (*Curated Review*)

" If you're looking for authentic, delicious Mexican street food this is your spot! The tacos were incredible, made with fresh ingredients, and the prices are quite decent. Although the wait time was longer than expected, the food made up for it. I can't wait to come back and bring my friends to experience it as well. " (*Curated Review*)

" I'm usually not fond of food trucks, but the food here won me over completely! I went for lunch and tried the fish tacos - wow! They were fresh and had fantastic flavor. The staff was also very friendly, which added to the experience. I can't wait to go back again as I want to try everything on the menu! " (*Curated Review*)

" El Alteño is simply fantastic! This is the genuine Mexican experience I've been looking for. I absolutely loved their homemade ceviche, which had just the right amount of spice. The tacos were equally delicious, burritos just as good. Great portion sizes too! The only downside was a little wait, but the quality of the food made it worthwhile. Can’t wait to come back this weekend! " (*Curated Review*)

" Great family business with authentic food! Very smoky taste which I love, and the portions are very fair for the price. Tacos and burritos were amazing! Would recommend the sopes if you want something hearty. The staff was super friendly too. The only minor issue was there was quite a wait to get our food, but once it arrived, it was well worth it! " (*Curated Review*)

" I've heard so much about El Alteño and finally decided to check it out. The food was undeniably tasty and had the authentic flair that I was searching for. I ordered the sopes and they were delightful! The only downside was that it was a bit crowded, and the service felt a tad slow, but the wait was worth it for such great food. I can't wait to go back and try more menu items! " (*Curated Review*)
