" Coming to Tacos 'El Rapido' feels like a little slice of Mexico! Every bite takes you straight back to the streets of Oaxaca. The tacos are authentic and full of flavor, especially the lengua. The papas rellenas are a fantastic twist, incredibly creamy and comforting. The cash-only system was a minor inconvenience, but the delicious food makes it all worthwhile. I’ve taken friends here, and they’ve become fans too. If you're in the area, you simply must stop by! " (*Curated Review*)

" This taco truck is my favorite in the city! I go here almost every week and my go-to order is usually the pastor tacos and papas rellenas. I've introduced so many coworkers to it, and everyone keeps raving about the flavors. Everything is made fresh to order, which is another layer of quality. The only minor complaint is that it's cash-only, but that's really a small price to pay for such good food. I truly recommend giving it a try! " (*Curated Review*)

" Tacos 'El Rapido' does not disappoint! I decided to try the papas rellenas and they were phenomenal! The filling was creamy and cheesy, paired well with their spicy salsa. I also had the asada tacos, which did not lack flavor at all. The only complaint would be that they were cash-only, but that’s what comes with authentic taco trucks. I highly recommend this spot and can't wait to come back again! " (*Curated Review*)

" This place has been my go-to for tacos for years! Their mini tacos are great value for the quality you get. I love the street taco vibe, and the flavors are always on point. You can taste the freshness in every bite! The only hiccup is that they only take cash, which can be an inconvenience, but the food quality makes it worth the effort to stop by an ATM. Don't skip out on trying their papas rellenas; they may just be my favorite item here. Keep up the amazing work! " (*Curated Review*)

" The food truck has a great vibe with tasty options! I ordered the papas rellenas after hearing so much about them, and they lived up to my expectations. The flavors melded nicely, and it's extremely filling. The only drawback is their cash-only policy, which can be tough sometimes. However, the delicious food makes it all worth it. I’ll be recommending this taco truck to my friends! " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited this place after hearing so much about it. The tacos are good, but I was a bit disappointed with the limited options. I expected more variety based on the reviews. However, the asada taco was well seasoned and delicious. Service was quite fast, and the prices are very reasonable. Overall, it's worth trying at least once. I'd suggest going early before they run out of certain items. " (*Curated Review*)

" This is the best taco truck around! The service is quick, making it perfect for a lunch break. I’ve had the asada and al pastor tacos and both were delicious. The prices cannot be beaten at $1 per taco! I recommended the horchata too; it was thick and creamy. I’ll keeping coming for their great food and service. " (*Curated Review*)
