    Giant Chinet plate of food.
    Miranda S.

    The service was very friendly and the salsa was tasty. Tip: make sure to order said delicious salsa, it doesn't come with the giant Chinet plate of food wrapped in foil, though a fork and napkin do. They also have the best diet soda selection I've found in town: Diet Coke, Diet Dr. Pepper (yay!), and Diet Pepsi. You know, for those of us into drinking chemicals. They're generous with the asada and very helpful. When I asked to sub beans for the rice on the side, he asked if I wanted to sub beans for rice in the burrito too. Thoughtful service, especially for a food truck! I wanted to love this because it's an old-school Anchorage food truck. But while the portions were hearty and the food filling, I won't forsake Taco King, Burrito King, or my favorite Serrano's for Benny's. This food was a tiny bit too salty and the cheese in my burrito wasn't melty. I'm kind of obsessed with melted cheese: I don't see the point in a burrito if it doesn't include steak and melted cheese. But if you're hungry, are close by, and have cash, Benny's will get you some filling food fast and in a friendly fashion. Tip: bring cash, Benny's doesn't accept credit cards.

    The food truck.

There's a little bbq, sandwiches and some Mexican inspired dishes. Definitely has a little bit of everything. Ordering was easy, and they even ask for your number so they can text you when the order is ready! Food was ready fairly quickly. Everything was really tasty! I enjoyed the pulled pork Sammy and loved the pineapple slaw for a bit of sweet. The carne asada fries were also good, but I wish they were more loaded. Pretty sparse order than what I'm used to getting at other restaurants. The bread that the tuna sandwich came on was so good, and the tuna salad had a great wasabi kick. This truck is perfect for a lunch or casual dinner! Their menu definitely pairs well with beer so I hope to see them parked at other breweries around town!

Uh...just look at the photo of the menu board I posted. Most things have a Mexican-influence, some do not. I got the "Brunch Quesadilla". It has: ham, bacon, eggs, and cheese. It was rich, hearty and delicious. And it only set me back $5.50! I had this early in the morning at the Spenard Farmer's Market.
