“We can’t thank Torry’s Tacos enough for hosting our recent Wake Forest Pride social and fundraiser! From start to finish, the experience was seamless and enjoyable. A huge shoutout to Elkin, who made setting up the event so easy—everything was well-organized and stress-free thanks to his help. On the day of the event, Tre Green, the amazing manager on staff, went above and beyond to make us feel welcomed. The entire team’s hospitality was incredible, and they created an atmosphere that felt inclusive and celebratory. As for the food and drinks? Absolutely fantastic! Every guest raved about how delicious everything was. We couldn’t have asked for a better venue or team to help make this event such a success. We’re already looking forward to partnering with Torry’s Tacos again soon. Thank you for being such a supportive ally to our community!“

“This was our first time trying Gonza’s, and the food was amazing. However, I did feel rushed. My daughters were still eating, yet we were asked several times if they wanted a box, and the check was placed on the table before they had finished. I didn’t appreciate that, as it made my daughters uncomfortable and discouraged them from finishing their meal. While the food was great, I’ll keep looking for a place that offers both good food and good customer service. On a positive note, the manager who came over to collect my payment was nice, which I did appreciate.“

I recently had the pleasure of trying out this taco truck, and it was an incredible experience! The meats were cooked and seasoned to absolute perfection—juicy, flavorful, and everything you'd want in a taco. The drinks were just right on sweetness, refreshing and balanced perfectly.

The staff were exceptionally friendly, adding to the overall positive vibe of the place. It's clear they care about their customers and their craft.

Overall, an amazing experience that I can't wait to repeat. Highly recommend this taco truck to anyone looking for delicious food and great service“
