" Every time I visit Ta Canijo, I leave satisfied! Their tacos are fantastic – especially the al pastor! The meat is always juicy and well-seasoned. I also love the setup like a taco truck which adds to the authentic vibe. The only downside is the sometimes chaotic service, especially when they've got a lot of orders. It's worth the wait though! I always tell my friends about this hidden gem in Joliet. " (*Curated Review*)

" I recently visited Ta Canijo and was blown away by the amazing flavors in their tacos! The carne asada was tender and perfectly seasoned, served with fresh cilantro and a tangy salsa that was just the right amount of spicy. The atmosphere is casual, perfect for grabbing a quick bite. I highly recommend trying their corn tortillas – they are delicious! My only critique would be that the service was a bit slow during peak hours. Overall, a fantastic experience and I will be back soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" Visited this taco truck recently and was pleasantly surprised by how genuine the flavors were! The carne asada tacos were particularly noteworthy, and the salsa had a kick to it that I loved. The staff were friendly and helped us pick out some excellent choices. The one downside? I wish they had more seating available. Other than that, a fantastic meal! " (*Curated Review*)

" Ta Canijo has a nice twist with its taco truck setup, which gives it a fun and casual vibe. The tacos are really good, but I did find them a tad small for my liking. The staff are friendly and helpful, though I did have a bit of a wait. I will likely return, but I'm hoping for better portion sizes next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" Ta Canijo gives you a taste of authentic Mexican street food. Their tacos are flavorful and satisfying. I particularly enjoy the al pastor tacos. They are always juicy and come with a good amount of toppings. The only negative is sometimes I have to wait a little longer than expected for my order during peak hours. Overall, a great place to get your taco fix! " (*Curated Review*)

" Ta Canijo serves some of the best tacos I've ever had! I ordered the mixed platter with steak, chicken, and al pastor, and each one was phenomenal. The quality of the meat is evident, and the portions are generous for the price. The vibrant atmosphere and taco truck design make it a fun place to eat. Can't wait to go back! It's definitely my new favorite taco spot in town. " (*Curated Review*)

" Found a hidden gem in Ta Canijo! I tried their chicken tacos, and they were delicious! The flavors were spot on and tasted authentic. The service could be quicker, but it was worth it for the food. As someone who loves Mexican cuisine, I highly recommend this spot, especially for anyone near Joliet. " (*Curated Review*)
