" I recently visited Germán Seafood Food Truck, and let me tell you, their fish tacos are absolutely stellar! Each taco is packed with fresh fish that's fried to perfection. The staff was cheerful and welcoming. Even though the truck can get busy during lunch, the wait was worth it. Hands down the best seafood truck I've encountered in the area. Plus, they serve a complimentary seafood soup while you wait! It's a nice touch that shows they care about the customer's experience. Highly recommend if you're in San Marcos! " (*Curated Review*)

" Yet again, Germán's Seafood Food Truck comes through with spectacular food! I visited for dinner with my family and we ordered nearly everything on the menu. The fish tacos are a delight, crispy and satisfying, topped with fresh ingredients. The shrimp cocktails were the highlight though, as we had never tasted something so delicious. We faced a wait, but with good food, that’s a small price. Highly recommend it to everyone! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a wonderful experience at Germán Seafood Food Truck! The fish tacos were seasoned wonderfully and served hot. I really appreciated the size of the portions, which felt quit generous for the price. Although the seating was limited, the flavors of the food made it worth any inconvenience. Highly recommend for anyone seeking authentic seafood! " (*Curated Review*)

" When I first arrived, I was a bit unsure since it was a food truck, but hearing all the positive reviews made me try it. The fish tacos were indeed fantastic, possibly the best I've ever had! They give you a complimentary seafood soup that I thoroughly enjoyed. The service was friendly, and I appreciated the casual vibe. Pricing seems a smidge high for a food truck, but the flavor and fresh ingredients surely justify it. I definitely plan to be back for more! " (*Curated Review*)

" Germán Seafood Food Truck has become my go-to for delicious seafood on the run! I've tried both the shrimp and fish tacos, and they are faultless! Fresh ingredients and authentic flavors that remind me of my time in Baja. The staff has always been pleasant and seems to work efficiently, even during weekends when it gets packed. My only tiny complaint would be the prices, which can feel a bit steep for a food truck, but the portion sizes make up for that! Don't hesitate to give it a try if you're in the area. You will not regret it! " (*Curated Review*)

" I honestly don't get the big hype around this food truck. The fish tacos were basic, and the shrimp ceviche was too tangy for my taste. Service was adequate, but not overly friendly. I accidentally dropped my taco and the staff offered minimal assistance. The prices seem quite high given the lack of ambiance and seating. I probably won't return unless I hear something has changed. " (*Curated Review*)

" Fish tacos that transport you straight to the coast of Mexico! The freshness is a standout quality, and the crispy batter on the tacos hits the spot. They offer a great variety, which I am keen to explore next time. However, I did have to wait longer than I would have liked and the crowd can be overwhelming at times. Still, with such authentic flavors, I can't complain too much. Leave space for their seafood soup while you wait - it's a delightful prelude to your meal! " (*Curated Review*)
