" Just had the soft shell tacos, and they were fantastic! The flavors were rich, and the portions were generous. The staff is also very patient and friendly. I had a little bit of trouble with my payment due to cash-only, but the employees sorted it out for me. I would recommend this spot to anyone craving authentic Mexican food. " (*Curated Review*)

" What more can I say? El Jalapeño has my heart! I have tried so many items from their menu, and they have all been excellent. The flavors pop in every dish, and the staff is extremely kind. My favorite is the spicy chicken burrito—it’s so filling and just perfect for a late-night snack. Definitely coming back soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" El Jalapeño has been a lifesaver for late-night cravings! I've tried almost everything on the menu, and I've loved it all. The staff here knows how to treat customers well, always going the extra mile. If you love tacos, you won't regret visiting this place. Can't wait to go back for the birria tacos! " (*Curated Review*)

" I went to El Jalapeño with a group of friends after a night out, and it did not disappoint! The staff was friendly and fast. I got the fish tacos, and they were phenomenal. Full of flavor with a crispy outside! Just what I needed after a long night. This place feels like a community food truck and I love it! " (*Curated Review*)

" This has to be my favorite late-night taco truck in the city! The carne asada is juicy and perfectly cooked. The staff is friendly and they're always in a good mood. The prices are more than fair, and the quantity of food you get is impressive. My friends and I ended up ordering way too much, but they taste amazing on a late-night binge! " (*Curated Review*)

" Just got back from El Jalapeño and wow, every single item I tried was excellent! I had the beef burrito with all the fixings. The portion was huge and the flavors were top-notch. The seasoning was spot on, and I enjoyed the crunchy vegetables that added freshness. A must-try if you're ever in the area! " (*Curated Review*)

" Disappointed with my last visit! I had high hopes based on past experiences, but the service was much slower than usual. It took forever to get my order, and when I finally did, my vegetarian burrito had chicken in it! I brought up my allergy to the staff, but they didn’t seem to care. I won’t be returning anytime soon. " (*Curated Review*)
