The portion was huge and more than enough for the two of us. That Korean Beef was killer!! It was so tender and flavorful! The wait was a little longer than I was expecting but we didn't have anywhere to be and it was totally worth it! You order at the food truck but they have an air conditioned building right behind it where you can go in to eat. We will definitely be back! Thank you!!

This is a pretty interesting concept. The business owners have outfitted what seems to have maybe…read morebeen a residence in a business district on a busy commercial street to be a large dining area. The facility is surrounded by different food trucks/trailers. Something Asian offers some things Asian, some things Hispanic, some things American, and I'm sure some other things as well. We ordered a Mangonada, a Mango smoothie, a pineapple smoothie, and a bbq chicken plate. We took it all to go, so I can't really comment on the dine-in experience. All the items we ordered were good. The chicken came with rice, we chose garlic rice, and a side. We opted for the lumpia. The lumpia was a little different. It was beef lumpia (kind of a Shanghai style) and a kind of on the small side. You get two pieces as a side. In any case, everything was good enough that we'll definitely be back!

Food Truck Review Time: Who Cut the Grilled Cheese & Cheesecake…read more I've seen several people comment on this food truck with it's phenomenal grilled cheeses and cheesecakes. Unfortunately, my review doesn't include the cheesecake due to my other half being extreme allergic to tree nuts; but I am definitely here to see if these sandwiches are as good as everyone says they are? Got to meet Diana today and the owner Chris was busy behind the grill. She was extremely friendly and led us in the right direction of what to get. Also, you can not beat the price of these super stuffed sandwiches. $20 for two sandwiches with tots and drinks; what a great deal! So today we were trying the Goliath and the Meaty Meatloaf with tater tots. Chris is a freakin genius for coming up with these combinations. After all who thinks of putting macaroni and cheese on a sandwich, which is on the Goliath. These sandwiches are a flavor explosion! The chunks of pork on the Goliath was seasoned deliciously with the sweet caramelized onions. The perfected cheese flavor of the mac and cheese just threw my palate on over drive. The Meaty meatloaf's meatloaf was exceptionally tasty and once again had sweet caramelized onions. Chris has truly perfected the buttery crispness of the grilled cheese sandwich. I also loved these super crispy tater tots, but would have liked a little seasoning salt on them. They will deck out your tater tots for you if you like. Overall Review: excellent speedy friendly service 5/5 and food 4.75/5 would like a little seasoning on my regular tater tots, but these are some phenomenal sandwiches). FYI I'm not sure if they change locations, but today they were on New Warrington Road next to Taco Bell...

The first bite of the chicken had my mouth full of flavor--super tender, juicy, and just straight-up delicious. I asked for their spiciest sauce, the red chile de árbol, and it had a nice little kick. Not crazy spicy--but then again, I'm Mexican, lol. The rice and beans were also on point--really flavorful and a perfect side to the tacos. My wife got the shrimp taco box for $10.99 and loved it. She chose the green sauce (jalapeño with tomatillo), which had a mild kick and tasted really fresh. We also ordered pico de gallo with avocado, and it was fresh, bright, and exactly what you want. I've lived in Mexico, Texas, and was stationed in California for 16 years--so I'm always on the hunt for a legit spot whenever I move. This place honestly beats a lot of the hyped-up spots in Pensacola. I will DEFINITELY be coming back again and again!

I didn't get pictures because I was too hungry and the first bite of the carne asada taco made me forget all the problems I had for the day.

About $480 cheaper and I had the time of my life eating the 3 carne asada tacos and a chicken mulitas.

Updated Review: 2/5/26…read more The last 4 times we've ordered from Olgy's food truck there has been less meat, and lots of fat in the quesabirrias, making them inedible for me to eat. Since the last time we have not been back, 90% of my tacos was fat and only very little meat, which is sad because this use to be a multiple weekly place to eat for us.

They offer some of the best pizza I've had in the area, consistently, and with a very energetic and creative monthly pie that I've almost always loved when I get the chance. For example, June of 2025 they are offering a Shrimp Scampi pizza and it is brilliantly balanced and a pizza lover's delight. If you enjoy pizza and happen to see them parked, do give them a try. They generally post their weekly schedule on facebook and instagram, and if you are lucky enough to catch them calling you can order ahead for pickup.

I'm convinced they were blessed by the Greek gods themselves. Fresh ingredients, tender gyro meat that practically melts on contact, and that perfect balance of herbs and seasoning, it's easily the best gyro in town, hands down. And don't even get me started on the Cuban sandwich and the buffalo chicken fries. Those are my "don't think, just order" picks. Every. Single. Time. Flavorful, hearty, and dangerously addictive. But I have to be honest: Recently I've missed seeing my favorite Hip Pocket employee, Leigh! The one and only. She gives the kind of customer service that makes you feel like you're walking into your best friend's kitchen. Absolutely nothing against the rest of the team as they're great! They are just not her. Leigh could teach masterclasses in hospitality. She's a huge part of why I've been a loyal regular for years. The food is outstanding, but Leigh's kindness and energy are the extra magic that keeps me coming back. Hip Pocket Deli, please know you've got a true star on your hands and she always goes the extra mile for your customers!!!

The food here, though, was good. One of the things I've noticed out here in the South and on the East Coast, complimentary chips and salsa are not always to be expected. They do, however, start you off with them here! The server was attentive and friendly and eager to provide anything that would make the meal better. The place is decorated very nicely, with lots of local artwork, and it's very clean making it a pleasure to dine in. I had Chile relleno and a pork tamal, one of the kids had a burrito and one had an enchilada, and my wife tried their fajitas. Nothing was outrageously awesome, but everything was good, especially for the area. The only food I've found that is better so far are street tacos on the other side of town. Chances are good that we'll be back when we're in the area.

Olgy's bought this restaurant. Now it's called "El Gordos by Pedro & Olgy's"…read more Says so right on the building. I Got the "First Time Review" on this restaurant. I posted my review & it said it was the "FTR" and then a few days later it disappeared & a fake account is the first review, which now yelp has changed three times. I been coming to this restaurant for years & I have been going to Olgy's for years. Now that Olgy's has bought this restaurant, we can get the same Olgy's menu items as the old location that I used to go to. I said for years Olgy's was the best Mexican in Pensacola, you can see all the photos I have posted there for the past several years. They are the only Mexican Restaurant in Pensacola that hand makes their own corn tortillias & makes Fresh "Oysters con ceviche." Now, they make them here at "El Gordos" just like they did at "Olgy's." Olgy's was my favorite Mexican Restaurant for YEARS bc they make everything from scratch including the local shrimp ceviche, which is the best I have ever had. They also make the best Fresh oysters on the half shell topped with their locally sourced shrimp in their Ceviche recipe. Oysters are my favorite food & their Oysters on the half shell with their locally sourced shrimp Ceviche is moi fave Oyster dish of all time. Sir Hubbers also. OuiOui :)... The old location of Olgy's was too small & not good for the Gringos, so no one ever went there and yelped except me. Now, that Olgy's has bought this Restaurant & has had it fully remodeled, the interior designed by a professional designer, it's completely gorgeous inside & out, with the same amazing food as Olgy's always had. That's called "a triple threat." NOW, bc of the remodel, it's in my top 3 Best Mexican Restaurants in America. So I have indeed been coming here for years, and I have been saying this is my favorite mexican food for years. And I indeed wrote the First Time Review that was taken from me. STILL, "El Gordo's" is the ONLY PLACE that makes hand made corn tortilla's, Fresh Oysters con ceviche, & fresh shrimp tacos, in a gorgeous professionally designed restaurant, with a full bar, excellent service & plenty of parking. Whoever still thinks the taco truck behind the gas station in Pensacola that serves commercially made tortillas is better, I got some beach front property in Arizona I would like to sell ya. In the meantime, you can drool over me "El Gordo's Mexican Grill" photos while I wear a hole in my favorite booth. You can take away my FTR but you can't stop me from stuffing my pie hole here daily. And EVERY DAY is taco day at El Gordos Mexican Grill. Just check out the daily specials on the board & Saturday & Sunday is "two for one" happy hour. Stuff that in your pie hole. Ole! Added to my "fave tacos lists" Moi "Fave oyster places list" Moi "Top 3 fave Mexican Restaurants in America lists." Highest Recommendations.
