" I was disappointed with my visit to Tacos El Jerry. The hype was real, but unfortunately, the actual experience didn’t match. The tacos I ordered were small and not worth the price. I expected more when I ordered the quesadilla, but it was mostly tortilla with minimal filling. Service was decent, but I felt a little rushed. I enjoyed the salsa but wouldn't say I’d return without a serious price adjustment. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a mixed experience at Tacos El Jerry. The tacos I tried were pretty decent, but I wish I had sampled the other options. The service was friendly, but I was disappointed with the waiting time. For a food truck, I was expecting faster service, so that was a bit annoying. The flavors were strong, though, so I would consider visiting again, but maybe at a quieter time. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a great experience at Tacos El Jerry this week! The tacos de carnitas were heavenly, melting in my mouth with every bite. The horchata was also incredibly refreshing and complemented the spiciness of the meat perfectly. Service was prompt and they had everything prepared fresh. If you're in the area, it’s definitely worth stopping by for a satisfying meal, although be aware that it can get busy during lunch. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a mixed bag experience at Tacos El Jerry. On one hand, their tacos are bomb and come highly recommended. On the other hand, the inconsistency is a bit of a letdown. I've gone there twice: one time the service was on point, the next time they completely messed up my order. The prices are okay and the tacos are small but I guess that’s what you get from a taco truck. I would still recommend giving it a shot, just be cautious. " (*Curated Review*)

" I can’t praise Tacos El Jerry enough! The service is outstanding; the staff are quick and attentive. I ordered the quesabirria tacos, and they did not disappoint! The flavors were so rich and the meat was tender and juicy. The fresh salsa added an extra punch that I loved. My only small complaint would be about seating - it's a bit limited and not the most comfortable. Nevertheless, I would still recommend this spot! " (*Curated Review*)

" Absolutely love this place! The quesabirria tacos are next level; the flavor is just divine! They make their tortillas in-house and you can really taste the difference. I also ordered a piña agua fresca, which was the perfect refresher. The service was top notch, they were friendly and quick with the orders. The only downside was the atmosphere - it's a food truck, so don’t expect a fancy dining area, but it’s totally worth it for the food. Highly recommend if you’re looking for authentic flavors! " (*Curated Review*)

" Came to Tacos El Jerry based on a friend's recommendation and was not disappointed. The carne asada tacos were flavorful and expertly grilled, making them some of the best I've had. The service was incredibly quick and the staff was very patient with my numerous questions on the menu items. One thing I wished for was more options on the side, though. The salsa they offered was excellent! Would definitely return for another meal, but perhaps I’ll call ahead next time to reduce waiting. " (*Curated Review*)
