Great lobster roll, full of sweet and succulent lobster meat. Although it wasn't on the menu I got a Connecticut roll which basically is warm lobster drizzled with melted butter. They were very happy to make it for me and not at all annoyed that I wanted something not on their menu. It came with tater tots and a delicious Cole slaw. I highly recommend you seeing where this food truck is going to be and pay them a visit. I'm excited to go back and try some of their other menu items. For you non seafood eaters I hear they make a really delicious cheesesteak sub. read more

Chubby Mermaid - Tastes as good as it looks! - Food Trucks Near Me

I'm not much of a seafood eater, so when I saw this was the only food truck available outside of a bar with no food I was worried! But, all of those worries disappeared once I read the menu! We tried both the philly cheesesteak served with tater tots and the chicken tenders. Both were AWESOME! Very fresh, piping hot, and a good portion. Service was quick and friendly. They accept cards. Can't wait until we meet again! read more

Chubby Mermaid - Philly - Food Trucks Near Me

We had Chubby Mermaid out to celebrate our company's 13 year anniversary and I couldn't have been more pleased. Cynthia and Bill are accommodating, friendly, and the food was delicious!! The service was excellent - they fed 50 people quickly so we could all eat at the same time - and we had enough options to please everyone. They brought all we needed including drinks and plates/silverware. I highly recommend The Chubby Mermaid to cater any event!! read more

Chubby Mermaid - a man and a woman ordering food from a food truck - Food Trucks Near Me

With a name like Chubby Mermaid I had to check this place out! I tried this food truck, which is not a big truck at all, on a very busy Friday night concert in Plantation. I saw that they had good reviews, and the line was not too long so my friend and I decided to check it out. They don't have a huge menu, which is probably a good thing, because it allows them to specialize in what they do have. I guess they are known for their lobster rolls but by the time we arrived they were already out of those, (less than one hour into the event.). It was nice that they kept announcing it so people wouldn't wait in line and then realize they were out if they had their heart set on lobster rolls. We had a short wait in line about 5-8 minutes. I decided to try a cheesesteak sandwich that came with tater tots. My friend ordered the tacos, and we also got two orders of chicken tenders/tots for kids. The food came out rather quickly, and the portions were huge. I thought $12 for a cheesesteak was a bit pricey, but when I saw how big it was I changed my mind. It was full of meat, which was delicious, and the bread was fresh and soft. It also came with many crispy tots. I could not finish the whole sandwich; I shared it with a friend. My other friend had ordered the tacos. The taco size was generous, ingredients were fresh, the shrimp was well seasoned without an over abundance of salt. The batter on the shrimp held just the perfect amount of crunch to not dry out the shrimp and it was all wrapped together in a warm flour tortilla for a perfect taco experience. It came with two tacos so you could enjoy again. All our food really hit the spot! Overall I was pretty impressed with the quality of the food & service of the Chubby Mermaid. I would definitely visit them again if they are at another outdoor local event!i read more

See all

SUN Credit Union was having an International Credit Union Day Celebration and the Chubby Mermaid was recommended by some employees to cater the event. Because of the employee referral, we knew that Cynthia was going to be good, however, Cynthia FAR EXCEEDED our expectations! We had about 120 people attend the event. Cynthia was an absolute pleasure to work with, not only were they on time to set up, but she had food ready when people started showing up early. We offered a fixed menu of burgers, hot dogs, pulled pork, tater tots, and coleslaw. All of the food was DELICIOUS, and our members were raving. I had a pulled pork sandwich with tater tots and coleslaw, it was amazing! The food truck really was a great addition to the event. I highly recommend hiring this team to anyone looking for delicious AND affordable catering. Thank you, Cynthia and team, for really helping to make our event a success. I look forward to working with you more in the future! read more

Chubby Mermaid - International Credit Union Day Celebration at SUN Credit Union catered by Chubby Mermaid. Thank you for everything! Amazing job! - Food Trucks Near Me

Food safety seems to not be a priority. I was hungry and I thought about eating at the Chubby Mermaid this weekend at TY park in Hollywood. I saw the older man prepping raw food with no gloves, he then stepped outside, touched something in the back of his Jeep, touched the door, went back to touching and prepping food, never washed his hands, never wore gloves. This is absolutely disgusting and unacceptable read more

Lobster Roll was just amazing, lots of lobster and the coleslaw it's just a little not to take away the flavor of the lobster but the flavor it's perfect, both gave a great bite, definitely I'll go again and I'm looking forward to try the rest of the menu because everything sounds delicious. read more

Absolutely the best ! Tried this small but amazing food at a sunrise music in the park venue a few months back and was completely blown away ! The po'boy is by far my favorite but ive never had a bad thing from them. My wife and I look for this truck whenever were at a music show now. Even now durring this Covid-19 pandemic we were able to order by text and pick it up from their location and have a little taste of normalcy ... thank you so much Chubby Mermaid read more

I went to an outside concert last night in Sunrise. There were a lot of food trucks that looked awesome and then I spotted one I had never seen before-The Chubby Mermaid. One look at the menu and I knew immediately what I would order-The Poke Plate. It was absolutely delicious. I even devoured the cabbage which I am usually not a fan of. They also included avocado tortilla chips!! OMG!! I wish I could get some more of everything right now. Everyone associated with the truck were super nice and friendly as well. It was such an awesome experience!! Thanks for the memories. This will be my go to truck at every event in which I see them!!! read more

I went to the Flamingo Gardens Food Truck event last night and was pleasantly surprised by the Chubby Mermaid food truck!

The food truck was very clean, the service was friendly and efficient! All the food they were serving looked amazing! They have conch fritters, shrimp tacos, poke bowls, tater tots and even a steak sandwich that I heard a customer raving about! Give them a try...you will not be disappointed!

If you don't like seafood, grab a cheesesteak... better than Gino's, Pat's & Tony Luke's in Philly. Can't wait to catch them at their next event! read more
