    Kings Plate is an absolutely must find and try…read more We ordered the Catfish and Shrimp plate. The batter on the fish and shrimp was delicious. So flavorful. Perfectly cooked. The Collard Greens made with Smoked Turkey had me wanting more. Mac and Cheese super cheesy Finally. I found some real good Soul Food. This is a pop up food truck. If you follow him on his Social Media pages he says where he will be. I've had it pinned for months in my Yelp Collection. So worth the wait.

    This is my first and only experience with Kings. I ordered food at an event for a friend from…read moreKings based on what she saw others had ordered because it looks great. My friend and I waited and waited for the food. I opened the order when I got it before leaving the window and the lady working the window gave me someone else's food. Thankfully, and the other customer recognized their order and got their food just fine. The lady working the window apologized, gave me a water, and I waited longer. She apologized again and said that they'd bring the food to me. They didn't bring the food and instead gave part of my order to a different friend to bring to me. I went back and asked for the rest of the order. The lady working the window said that she gave me my order. I said no, we only got part of it. She then became unbelievably inappropriate saying that I'm lying, stealing from a Black man business owner, not well, and all kinds of things that were uncalled for because they were paid nearly $40 for the order plus a 20% tip! I told my friend what happened and to do a charge back. I went back again with the partial order to try and explain that this was all that was received. Instead, the woman working the window immediately started berating me, threatening to embarrass me, and other things that were incredibly unhelpful to reconcile the situation. Mind you, I am not the type to act a fool and was at the event representing an organization so at no time did I raise my voice or return the treatment I received from this business. She asked what I wanted her to do and I told her that a refund because I know how chargebacks are bad for small businesses. She said okay and asked for the last 4 digits of the card, so I had to get them from my friend. I went back to my friend to get the numbers, got back in line to give them to her, and I gave them to her. She asked why I kept getting back in line...well, how else was I supposedto get help because that line was the only line. Instead of refunding my friend, the lady shut the window, talked to the owner, and reopened the window and started taking more orders. I got back in line again to find out if the refund had been done and she said that they were not going to refund and there was nothing else that they could do. I told my friend this and she's going to move forward hopefully with the chargeback. Mind you if the order and had been fulfilled correctly, then I wouldn't have had to go back multiple times asking for the order nor would I be writing this negative review. Our other friends who actually got their orders said the food was good, so there's that I suppose. This type of exchange is why so many businesses fail. Simple things like decent service and order management. I was not the only person waiting for an extended period. I was not the only person whose order was messed up. I encourage this business to invest in an digital order taking CMS and not writing things in dark pen on the boxes themselves. If digital order taking isn't possible for now, and that's OK if it is, then invest in guest check server notepads. They are less than $10 on Amazon. The orders can be written on them with customers' names and phone numbers, the bottom can be torn off for customers to have while they are waiting for food, and, in order for a customer to receive their order, they must surrender the torn off portion. Doing something either electronically or handwritten like explained would provide a system for checks and balance instead of relying on someone's memory. Also, consider coaching, retraining, and/or replacing the woman that was working the window today as her behavior is bad for business. She was not able to or chose not to maintain composure, decorum, and handle the pressure of all of the customer traffic. Though I did not get loud, she did get loud with me and other customers saw this every time she did this. That affects business. Her choices and behavior today cost this business vending opportunities with me, my employer, the organization I was representing at today's event, and probably with other customers who saw her disrespect, treatment, and unkindness towards me.

    I drove by this food truck on Broadway and saw it was a new (to me) BBQ joint. Always looking for…read moreand appreciative of good barbecue, I decided to stop in for lunch to sample what they had. I was greeted by the owner who was very nice and let me know all the specials they had for the day. I ordered a pulled pork one meat special that came with two sides. I chose the Mac and cheese, and the BBQ beans. The price was very reasonable for the portions I got. Within about 10 minutes of being there, a line was starting to build made up of people showing up on foot and even a letter carrier taking in lunch. Currently they sit in the parking lot of a barber shop but the owner told me she will have her own building within a year. I looked into the back of the food truck and saw a giant offset smoker billowing away while the smoke coming out the top lured anyone with any tastebuds for BBQ to the area. It turns out I was the owners first customer for the day and as such, she told me I get a free "brown bag lunch" which is a protein that comes with one side and a back of chips. I wanted to sample some more of the food so I ordered a brisket sandwich and green beans for my sides. (I do want to say this review has nothing to do with the free food they gave me. It is a 100% honest review). Since they don't have a building yet I did not see any tables but I did overhear the owner ask a gentleman if he was going to wait in the barber shop, so I don't know if there is any place in there to sit and eat. Let's talk about the food. The portions are very generous. If you are going to make your customers happy and you are proud of your food, let them have some. I got plenty of food with just my first order. The pulled pork was extremely delicious. It had a wonderfully smoked flavor without even putting any of the sauce on it. It really could have stood alone. It was also moist and the fat was rendered perfectly. There were no chunks of fat, just pure pulled pork goodness. I added their sauce just to try it and it made the sandwich even better. Everything I said about the pulled pork was true for the brisket as well. They really have mastered the art of getting the smoke flavor into the meat. My sandwich was more of a pulled brisket style and I did not ask if there was any sliced brisket for sandwiches, so I don't know. The Mac and cheese was exactly like the comfort food you would want. It was a good consistency and not dry and not runny. The BBQ beans has such a nice tang to them, I almost could have thrown the meat in there and just ate that as a meal. Clearly they are homemade and made with love. There isn't a lot you can do to green beans, but they were also pretty tasty. There were chucks of some kind of root vegetable mixed in them. Let me give my bottom line: the truck sits between 24th St and 16th St on the north side of Broadway. You really need to try this BBQ before it takes off and becomes so popular that you have to wait over an hour to get any. I can tell the owner is pouring herself into this business and deserves to be rewarded for making REAL, non commercial, delicious food. These are the people we want to succeed so go out and support this business. It's all about the food and this one knocks it out of the park!

    I love their taco tripas so much! The tacos are priced between $3-$3.50, which is pretty standard,…read morebut the flavor definitely stands out. Make sure to ask for the tripas crispy! It makes a huge difference and adds the perfect crunch. Their cabeza and lengua are also incredibly flavorful, moist, and well-balanced. Nothing is overly salty which I really appreciate. My friend tried the pork belly taco, and it was crispy and packed with flavor so that's definitely on my list for my next visit. A quick tip: bring cash. They do take credit cards, but there's a 3% fee. There's no free water fountain, but bottled water is available for purchase, along with some classic homemade drinks you can try. The staff here are friendly and welcoming, and the outdoor seating is clean and comfortable. There's even a handwashing station with soap and paper towels provided which is a nice touch. Overall, such a great spot! I can't wait to come back again!

I wish there was more limones and cucumbers on the plate. The salsas were really good, and the perfect balance of spice and taste. For a food truck, the area is clean and big enough for 2+. We used to visit and push tables together and just enjoy the night. Which is what I felt visiting. The meat is still so juicy, and food is just hot to touch. Definitely a good place to visit after a game or concert!
