" I tried the rolled tacos, and while they were decent, I found them to be a bit greasy. It was packed with flavor, but I could barely finish it because it felt heavy. On the bright side, they were generous with the portions! I would recommend them for a snack rather than a full meal. " (*Curated Review*)

" As a taco connoisseur, I was truly impressed by the flavors at Vaqueros Carne Asada! The ingredients felt fresh and authentic. You could tell they care about their food. However, they truly need to work on getting the orders out quickly—the wait was longer than expected. Overall, great experience, but I had to subtract points for wait time. " (*Curated Review*)

" My experience was quite mixed. The carne asada tacos were excellent and packed with flavor. However, the service was a bit slow, and I felt the staff needed more training. The ambiance was casual but a little chaotic during peak hours. If you're willing to wait for the food, you'll likely enjoy the authenticity of the dishes they serve. " (*Curated Review*)

" Regrettably, my last visit was far from pleasant. I found a hair in my food, which completely turned me off, and the service couldn't assist satisfactorily. I really hope that they can take measures to address these hygiene concerns because the food quality is usually better than what I experienced. I can only give this visit a 1, but typically, I would rate them higher based on past experiences. " (*Curated Review*)

" Overall, a decent taco shop with a friendly atmosphere. The service can be a little slow, but the authenticity of the food makes it worth the wait. The burritos are good but can be heavy on the cheese sometimes. Definitely worth a visit if you're craving Mexican food! " (*Curated Review*)

" Wow! I can't believe how cheap and filling the food is here. The portions are gigantic! I came here expecting decent tacos and left with an incredible meal that left me fully satisfied. I suggest ordering carne asada fries as a side because they are to die for. The atmosphere is more laid-back, just like a taco shop should be! " (*Curated Review*)

" Overall, I had a positive experience here. The burritos were delicious and filling, though a bit pricey. I enjoyed the relaxed vibe, but I think they could improve on the customer service aspect. Despite the flaws, I will return to try more items on the menu. " (*Curated Review*)
