Carolina B., who was among the first Yelpers to review the new spot on August 18, wrote, "This is a cool Torchy's! It's got a bar inside — thumbs up! We went in literally one minute before closing and got some delicious tacos to go. We love the trailer park (trashy!), and I especially enjoy their breakfast tacos. Great location with ample parking!"
And s w. wrote, "Went there today for lunch at 11 and the place was already packed. ... We only ordered two tacos, which cost over $10. The food was fine, but I still like Velvet Tacos better. The service was very slow for two tacos."
