" Not what I expected at all. I ordered a burrito, and while the portion was decent, there seemed to be an overload of cheese and not enough beans or salsa for flavor. The food came out quickly, which was commendable, but I left feeling less satisfied than I hoped. I'll probably try one of the tacos next time to see if they're better. Still, the service itself was friendly and attentive. " (*Curated Review*)

" We loved the food! The carne asada tacos were flavorful and well-prepared. We couldn't get enough. Each taco came with fresh toppings that really brought everything together. The food truck also had a relaxed vibe that made eating there enjoyable. Highly recommend to anyone wanting to indulge in traditional-style tacos late at night! " (*Curated Review*)

" Last night, I decided to try out Taqueria Metro Basilica after hearing much buzz from friends. I can honestly say it did not disappoint. The tacos de tripa were a standout for me, packed with flavor—not to mention the generous portions! Also, the staff was quick and kind, making my experience pleasant. I truly appreciate how they take care of their customers, especially late-night diners. I’ll definitely return! " (*Curated Review*)

" Gave it a try for the first time and was impressed! The tripas tacos were very tasty; just the right amount of seasoning, and they were fried perfectly. The line can get long, but it is worth the wait. The staff remains friendly, and the environment felt welcoming. Amazing for a late-night stop! " (*Curated Review*)

" Incredible experience at Taqueria Metro Basilica! As a taco enthusiast, I was thrilled by the authenticity of the food. I tried the carnitas and the al pastor tacos, and both were bursting with flavor! The portions were substantial and the prices kept my wallet happy. I came in late at night, and despite the hour, the service was prompt and friendly. Definitely a hidden gem in the area. Each bite took me back to my days in Mexico. Can't wait to go back!

" I ordered some tacos at Taqueria Metro Basilica last week. The flavors were decent but didn’t quite match my high expectations based on other reviews. The place was clean, and the service was fine, but I feel like I’ve had better tacos in the area. I wish they had a bit more variety in their salsa options. All in all, not a bad option if you’re in the vicinity, but I wouldn’t go out of my way for it. " (*Curated Review*)

" I have been a fan of taco trucks for a long time, and Taqueria Metro Basilica is among the best I've tried! The quesadillas are loaded, and their salsa adds the perfect kick. I particularly loved the fact that they offer various meats, but the highlight for me was definitely the suadero. It felt like I was tasting a piece of home every time I took a bite. The service was smiling and quick, making it a perfect stop after a long day. I'll be coming back for sure, especially after hockey games! " (*Curated Review*)
