The toaster was apparently too hot, because the outside of the bread was way over toasted and the inside was soft. The bread was so hard that biting into the sandwich did not yield a bite, it produced a squished and deformed sandwich. Maybe it was just a bad night, for $10, I was highly disappointed. You can get better Cubans from non-Cuban restaurants.

For sides we for ham croquettes plus a lil dippy sauce. No matter which one you try - the pollo, pork, beef: each one has a juiciness to it that really hit the spot. The sauces and seasonings they use make these flaky fried pockets of goodness outstanding. Service was friendly and quick, we knew our order was ready once the buzzer remote went off which was nice. I love the way they fold their empanadillas with such tight coils plus the spiral borders are pleasing to look it. The croquettes themselves were soft on the inside with a crispy outer layer, very appetizing.

I am a fan because it must be more healthy but I think I like the tamale better. The rice and beans with some potato in it was fantastic. The service was nice and quick. Overall, a thumbs up. I will try the empanadas next time. The truck was set up in front of a shopping center on James Island.

OMG, deliciousness!…read more Found the gem on Instagram and had to check it out for myself...they did not disappoint! Ordered the chopped beef to go with crispy tostadas and the fixings and a side of mac n cheese. Everything paired nicely together from crunch, to depth of flavor with a nice sauce. Mac and cheese was large and tasty, well done. Definitely a place to check out if ever in the area! I'd go back for sure.

Staff was busy, friendly, and kept the lunch rush moving. Our main (constructive) feedback would be to 1) add weights and/or amounts to the (big board) pricing menu and 2) present customers with a heads up on the "fixins" that cost extra (e.g., cilantro and fried shell). Our (pictured) tray was $52 without a drink. Had we known that 2 ribs cost $15, we would have quickly pivoted to another meat.

There is plenty of sitting space, less wait, and more good eating! The only mystery here is that they stopped serving COFFEE. WHY????? A good breakfast is not complete without coffee. Come on, guys, what's the deal? They even used to serve hot milk for your coffee and regular cold milk for the kids... as of today, it's gone. When and if you bring coffee and milk back, I will change my rating to 5 stars... until then, you get 4 because coffee or not, the food is still great.

I ordered their jerk chicken basket which came with two jerk chicken legs and waffle fries. I enjoyed it, but was hoping for more chicken. It was so delicious. It had the right amount of spice and seasonings. I didn't get to try out anything else on the menu, but definitely plan on following them. Was really good, just expected more food that came with the basket.

I hope they'll be back around again because they were pretty damn good for a food truck. I ordered the Gator Sausage Po Boy and it was delicious; a nice warm bun stuffed with grilled alligator sausage, onions, and peppers topped with spicy mustard. I also got a side of fries, but not really impressed with those since they were not very hot. But I'd love the truck to come back so I can try the shrimp po boy or the jerk chicken plate; they looked awesomely delicious. Overall a pretty solid food truck.

They are always so nice here and everything comes out fast. There's plenty of seating if you choose to dine in and it's clean with lots of space so you don't feel crowded inside. My favorite is the bulgogi bowl! 100% recommend this place for anyone looking for a yummy rice bowl or amazing burgers!

Pretty good! It's nice to have a good burger spot around the corner…read more I got the mushroom/Swiss/caramelized onion burger with fries. Partner got the regular burger that came with a giant tomato slice haha. Also with some brussel sprouts. Burgers were both great though not "smashed" in the sense of being thin with lacy edges with a hard sear. Not a huge problem as it was still pretty flavorful. Sprouts were awesome and fries were very crispy. Aside from a hard sear/smash, we thought it was sliiiightly salty but it wasn't excessive, just nitpicking. Very cute vibe inside and the merch is also cute. I've heard good things about their bowls as well and I'll definitely be back to try the chicken sandwich.
