" I recently visited Taqueria El Gordo while on vacation and it was astounding! The steak tacos were the best I've ever had, not to mention the friendly service from the staff. I really appreciated that they took the time to suggest their favorites on the menu. The atmosphere at the food truck park was vibrant and perfect for enjoying some delicious food. I left with a full belly and a huge smile on my face! " (*Curated Review*)

" Last weekend, my family and I visited Taqueria El Gordo and it was an experience to remember. We couldn’t resist trying everything on the menu. From burritos to tacos and even tortas, each dish was bursting with flavor. They were reasonably priced, and the service was impeccable. The outdoor food truck setting was perfect for the nice weather. It's definitely a spot we will return to on our next trip to Moab. " (*Curated Review*)

" Absolutely love this taco truck! I promise you won't find better tacos elsewhere! The spicy pork tacos impressed me the most; they had just the right kick! The prices are incredibly fair considering the quality of the ingredients. The outdoor area is nice, even with misters to cool you off inthe summer. I dream about these tacos—seriously! " (*Curated Review*)

" I stumbled upon Taqueria El Gordo while hiking in Moab and it truly was a hidden gem! The tacos were on point—filled with delicious fillings that reminded me of my travels in Mexico. Plus, the refreshing side of Mexican Coke was the cherry on top! The only downside was finding a place to sit as it was quite busy. " (*Curated Review*)

" Visited Taqueria El Gordo twice while on a hiking trip, and it was blissful both times! The flavors are spot-on with authenticity and the staff is always smiling. They even offered to make my order customized when I mentioned I wanted it spicy! It was a terrific recommendation. My only regret is not finding it sooner! " (*Curated Review*)

" If you're looking for a true taste of Mexico, you must visit Taqueria El Gordo! I had their carne asada tacos and they were phenomenal! The meat was tender and seasoned perfectly, and the tortillas were fresh. The staff was friendly and welcoming which made the experience even better. I can't wait to come back for more!
