" My experience at Taqueria Peloncitos can be summed up in one word—delicious! From the handmade tortillas to the generous portions, every aspect was spot on. The al pastor was particularly noteworthy, bursting with flavor. I do wish there would be more emphasis on the cleanliness of the surroundings, but honestly, it won’t stop me from coming back as this place serves some of the best tacos in Austin! " (*Curated Review*)

" I first tried Taqueria Peloncitos during a family trip to Austin and was blown away by the depth of flavor in every single bite. We ordered a variety of tacos to share, and everything was so fresh and made with care. The only downside was that we had to eat in the car as the surrounding area wasn't that pleasant. But honestly, for the quality of food, I would take that any day! I can't wait to come back and try everything on the menu! " (*Curated Review*)

" What a delicious experience! I went to Taqueria Peloncitos and couldn't have been happier with my selections. The tacos were generously stuffed, and the flavors were rich. It was particularly nice to see the staff working diligently to manage the orders. The only downside was the waiting area wasn't ideal, considering the truck's location. Still, I'm coming back for sure—this is a real gem in Austin! " (*Curated Review*)

" I recently tried Taqueria Peloncitos and was swept away by the incredible flavors of their tacos! The freshness of the ingredients is palpable, and they use authentic handmade tortillas. I was impressed with the speed of the service and the friendliness of the staff, even during busy times. However, the location does pose some concerns regarding cleanliness as it’s quite close to a dumpster. Still, the food makes it all worthwhile! " (*Curated Review*)

" Every taco I’ve tried at Taqueria Peloncitos has been delicious! The first time I ordered their breakfast tacos, I was amazed at the rich flavor of the ingredients. I also love that they make everything fresh right there. The only part that could improve is the seating area, which can get a bit cramped at times. However, the taste and quality make up for it, ensuring I’ll return for more tasty meals! " (*Curated Review*)

" I'm always talking about Taqueria Peloncitos! The authentic flavors really stand out, especially the green salsa. I was visiting Austin and decided to check this taco truck, and I was not disappointed. The handmade tortillas and the freshness of the ingredients are unmatched! I had a fantastic lunch and even got some extra tacos to go. One of the best food experiences I've had recently! " (*Curated Review*)

" My latest visit to Taqueria Peloncitos was a bit disappointing. I found the tacos overcooked and too dry for my liking. The atmosphere is also not the best since it's right next to a dumpster. I was really looking forward to the al pastor but ended up disappointed. Maybe it was just an off day? I don't think I'll return anytime soon. " (*Curated Review*)
