" I came here expecting a casual taco truck experience, but I got so much more. From the moment I approached the window, the smell of freshly cooked food made my stomach growl. The owner suggested the tacos al pastor and wow, they were amazing! Each bite was bursting with flavor, and the handmade tortillas? Divine! The prices are reasonable too, making it a great value for the quality you're getting. The only downside was some outdoor seating near the road, but that didn’t take away from the overall experience. Highly recommend if you're a taco lover! " (*Curated Review*)

" Just finished dinner there. The food? Fantastic! But, I wasn't very impressed by the service. The tacos were loaded with toppings and had great flavors, but the wait felt a bit longer than I would have liked, especially with how hungry I was! Overall, the experience was good, and I would come back for the food! " (*Curated Review*)

" La Yaquesita is a hidden gem that every taco lover needs to visit! I ordered their goat birria and it was incredibly flavorful, definitely a dish to savor. You can tell the ingredients are fresh and made with love. I do wish there were more indoor seating options, as it gets busy, but that speaks to how good the food is! Plus, the people working there are always so nice, and they genuinely care about your experience. It's quickly becoming my go-to spot for tacos in Austin. You HAVE to try it! " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited La Yaquesita for the first time last week and I was blown away! The tacos were some of the best I've ever had. The carne asada tacos were grilled to perfection, with just the right amount of seasoning. Plus, the owner was super nice and made sure we had everything we needed. I can't wait to go back! If you're in Austin and craving authentic Mexican food, you have to check this place out. " (*Curated Review*)

" Visited this taco truck last month and it was a decent experience. The tacos were good, but I felt like they missed the mark on the seasoning. The tortillas were fresh, but the meat wasn't as flavorful as I expected. Service was friendly, though; the lady working there is sincere and accommodating. Maybe I just ordered the wrong thing? I might give it another shot, as the atmosphere is laid-back and inviting. " (*Curated Review*)
