" After a long day kayaking, we decided to grab a bite at Taqueria El Yaqui, which was a delightful decision! The super fries were a hit among my friends, and the staff was friendly, going out of their way to ensure we had everything we needed. The authentic flavors brought a taste of Mexico that you don’t often find in such a casual setting. I could eat their fish tacos every day – they were so fresh and zesty! Plus, the prices were quite reasonable for the quality. Highly recommend stopping by if you’re in the area! " (*Curated Review*)

" I'm a huge fan of Mexican food, and I am always on the lookout for authentic spots. Taqueria El Yaqui did not disappoint! I got the carne asada tacos, and they were wonderfully seasoned and juicy. The flavors burst with every bite, and they also offer a nice selection of fresh toppings. One downside was the limited seating availability, but it’s a food truck, so I can't complain too much. They have certainly carved out a niche for themselves in the area with their delicious offerings! " (*Curated Review*)

I left feeling very satisfied and am already planning my next visit. A perfect place for a quick and delicious meal! " (*Curated Review*)

The prices were reasonable considering the quality of the food. I can't wait to return! " (*Curated Review*)

" A quaint taco truck with quality and rich flavors! I had the barbacoa tacos, and they were some of the best I've had in a long time. The pickled onions were a great topping, adding a zesty bite that complemented the savory meat perfectly. It’s a bit off the beaten track but worth seeking out! Just be prepared for a wait if you visit during peak hours. Overall, I’m glad I found this gem and will return for sure. " (*Curated Review*)
