Let me tell you about Gym Taco!! This place (food truck) is so absolutely amazing! I've tried the surf and turf burrito, chorizo burrito, and the chorizo cassidilla! Everything I have tried is so incredibly tasty! I would never go anywhere else for this kind of delicious food. And there is so much more to choose from. No, I am not affiliated with anyone at the establishment, but I do firmly believe if the food is great...tell someone!! Don't forget the chips and salsa! I've tried others' in the area and was so disappointed! They cant keep it on the menu (Doordash app) for delivery, it sells so fast! Just give this place a try..you won't be disappointed!

Overall Score – 7.4 Really good experience. The truck looked clean and it’s always there. The parking lot had spots to hang out, but it’s really more of a take-home place. It was busy — and for good reason. The guy taking the order was very nice, helpful, and answered questions. Great service. The menu was easy to understand with both basic tacos and a few extra styles. Pricing was more than fair. The sauces were also really good. Tacos – 7.1 Very good. Decent portion and the quality was there. The sauces definitely helped — the meat was tasty and good quality. Gym Taco – 8.3 Shrimp was juicy and tender. The sauces made it even better. Great price.

Not the best tacos I've had in the area, but decent. The tacos are pretty good size, and the pastor tasted good, but the asada and pollo were kinda blah. The location isn't great, and while i was waiting for my tacos, other people showed up and pretty much blocked my car in. It's also kinda far from me - if they were closer to the airport, I'd be more likely to go more often. I'll be back, but I probably won't be a regular.
