" Oh wow! I finally tried La Catrina after hearing so many rave reviews. I was not disappointed! The flavors of their tacos are truly authentic, reminiscent of my trips to Mexico. The staff was quick and friendly too! My only request is for them to consider expanding their outdoor seating. I think that could elevate the experience even further. I can't wait to go back! " (*Curated Review*)

" Not my first time at a taco truck, and I can say this one doesn’t disappoint! La Catrina serves up some of the best tacos I’ve had in Portland. The ingredients are fresh, and the flavors really come alive. The only downside is that there isn’t much room to sit, but that’s typical for a food cart. Make sure to try the salsa, it packs a punch! I am coming back next week! " (*Curated Review*)

" First time at La Catrina and it lived up to its reputation! Delicious tacos with generous portions. I had the chorizo and it was exquisite! The ambiance is lively, typical of a busy taco truck. The staff was super friendly, and I appreciated how quickly they managed orders even during peak hours. If you're in Portland and need Mexican food; La Catrina is the place! " (*Curated Review*)

" Don’t let the simple setup fool you—this place serves up some killer tacos! I appreciated the fast service, and the ingredients felt super fresh. The tortillas were handmade; you could tell immediately. I was a little disappointed that they ran out of certain meats, but it happens. I'll be back to try more of their menu for sure! " (*Curated Review*)

" La Catrina is legendary for its late-night eats! The tacos are phenomenal, stuffed with rich flavors. I can never pass up their spicy salsa! The only hitch is the wait during peak hours; I’ve stood in line for a while before. But, once you get that food, you'll know it was worth it. I hope they expand their seating options in the future! " (*Curated Review*)

" I tried La Catrina a while back and wasn’t impressed. The meat was okay but definitely could have used more seasoning. The wait time felt long even when there were only a few people ahead of me. The outside area can be a bit uncomfortable. I’ve had better experiences at other taco trucks. I might give them another chance, but I’m not sure. " (*Curated Review*)

" La Catrina is good, but it's not the best in my opinion. The meat portions seemed smaller than what I remember from my last visit, and the service was just average. The flavors were decent but could be more robust. I don’t think I’d rush back, but it still holds a place in my heart for those late-night cravings. " (*Curated Review*)
