Tasty taco truck with bold flavors, but a bit pricey for what you get…read more Jalapeño Express is a small food truck parked in a dental office lot, with a few casual tables nearby and a speaker strapped to the truck for ambiance. It's a one-person operation, so service can be a bit slow, but the food feels authentically made with care. We ordered the 2 burritos, 2 tacos, and a drink deal. Burritos are medium-sized, comparable to Chipotle, and while one is enough for me, the full combo would just satisfy a bigger appetite. The burritos were a bit soggy and could've been more generously filled. The tacos were the stars -- palm-sized but packed with flavor. The tripa taco was perfectly fatty and crispy, while the lengua was soft and flavorful. I'd come back for the tacos over the burritos. Drinks are self-serve from a cooler in front of the truck. There are two self-serve salsas -- a fresh green one and a spicier red; I preferred the red for its kick. Price-wise, it's on the higher end for a taco truck, which might be a drawback for some. Still, the taste delivers. If you're not in a rush and want a casual, no-frills taco stop with strong flavors, Jalapeño Express is worth trying.

This place has great reviews and fully booked ahead of time so our expectations were high when we…read moremade our reservation. They're only available on the weekends after 5PM and we had to wait a month to go. Yelpers were raving about their Ragu dish. Their menu is very limited and by looking at the pictures, that Ragu definitely caught my eye. I'm a meat eater and this plate has chunks of beef so I ordered it. Come to find out, they change the meat and pasta often so the meat they put in Ragu that night was ground beef (like bolognese) and the pasta was the large macaroni type. Very disappointed to say the least. Steak chunks in parpadelle pasta just like what they served prior would have been five stars! My wife's pasta dish was also changed to gnocchi which she didn't care for. We definitely went on a wrong night, but what can you do if your reservation is still a month away? The only thing I enjoyed was the tiramisu. Light and not too sweet. Service was slow although our server was friendly and accommodating. Mamasamas is only available for dinner and maybe because it's cooler at night. The place had fans running throughout and windows open. Not sure if it has air conditioning.

I saw a recent review from a fellow foodie who raved about this place. We made it a date night, and…read moreupon arrival, we faced a few challenges. First, parking: almost everywhere you look, there are tow-zone signs. We chose to park about a block away in the neighborhood. Walking in, we encountered a very long line to order. The indoor seating is very limited; there are only two small tables outside on the sidewalk. After reading all the reviews, I found it odd that, while waiting in line and looking at the plates around us, many people were throwing their fries away. That suggests they aren't good, or everything else was so good that they were full. As I looked around, I felt as though I might have been in this store before, when it was a donut shop; things looked quite familiar. The staff was definitely keeping up with the crowd, as this place was packed. We ordered the Hardpressed and the Patty Melts, a side of loaded French fries, an order of onion rings, and finally, a vanilla shake. The chocolate and strawberry flavors were sold out. It was very loud inside, but luckily, an outside table became available. Shortly after grabbing the outside table, our vanilla shake arrived, and it was surprisingly very good. Well, that got my attention and set the stage for what was to come. Some time passed, and our ordered items began to arrive sporadically. The loaded fries looked good, as did both burgers, but we were still missing the onion rings. My wife overheard the table next to us that the onion rings had recently sold out, so the question was, did we get in on time with our order? We dove into the loaded fries and found that the fries appeared freshly cut but didn't hold up well to the toppings; they were quite soggy, nearly mushy. Flavor was OK, and the jalapenos seemed freshly cut. Minor setback, all is still well. As my wife went in on her patty melt, I saw her expression, and she was quite pleased. Up next was their signature Hard Pressed Burger. I went in and was instantly greeted by the crispy texture of those grilled, smashed bits and the grilled bun, followed by the pickle and the remaining condiments. It was a very good first bite. My wife and I traded burgers, and wow, was that patty melt delightful. That crispy, grilled, flavor-filled rye bread stood out and introduced itself again, followed by the crispy tidbits of smashed beef, and that thousand island dressing brought it all together. Once again, another very good first bite. Our onion rings finally arrived and looked amazing. The crisp on the onion rings reminded me of the same texture seen on the fish & chips at Arthur Treacher's or even Long John Silver's. When paired with their Garlic Aioli, you instantly know someone in the kitchen knows their stuff. THAT GARLIC AIOLI!! Salute! At the conclusion of our meals, we were maxed out and needed to walk off our fullness. We headed into the square and concluded our night with some geocaching. Thanks for the great experience, and thanks to all of us foodies out there who bring these hidden gems to light!

My daughter frequently requests to get a burger from this food truck outside Ink Factory Brewing…read moreand often times, eats 1 then asks for a 2nd because of how much she loves them. The reason I rank it a 3 this most recent time we visited, is because the burgers and fries were a lot saltier than usual. They also did not have the grilled cheese option on the order ahead menu today which was a bummer for my younger daughter as that's her go to. We will chalk it up to an off day and will definitely be back. I appreciated that the employee working was friendly and thanked us for coming out and ordering.

You can also make any of the burgers using Beyond Meat! We ordered: +the Mercury - made with 2 patties of grass-fed halal beef, yellow American cheese, caramelized onions, crunchy potatoes, Galaxy sauce, Rocket Sauce, lettuce, tomatoes, and onions on a potato bun +Cosmic Fries - shoestring fries with house seasoning and Parmesan, served with a side of Cosmic sauce The burgers were described as 'smashburgers', so the patties were cooked all the way through (which I prefer!); the burger itself was actually okay, but there was something in there that made it taste slightly off - either it was the caramelized onions, the Galaxy sauce, or the Rocket sauce, there was something that was a bit too sugary/sweet; I think without this element, the burger would have been better! Maybe I'd ask for the sauces to be served on the side. The fries were okay - they did fill the styrofoam box to the brim and was generous in serving two cups of the Cosmic sauce; I think these could have been dropped fresh, as when we received them, they seemed as if they were prepared in advance and was sitting for a bit. Service was super friendly and welcoming! It's located off of Zetts, just down from Touchless Car Wash; note that this area can get jampacked and backed up on the weekends where everyone is trying to get their vehicle washed! Getting in and out can be a bit of a pain, and there are some temporary parking available. +friendly service! +located down from touchless Car Wash +off road parking available

I ordered online for takeout and got the Mercury combo (Mercury burger & cosmic fries) for 15$ and the Venus wings for 135. The mercury burger was by far my favorite item I had but i was expecting that it would be a little bigger with the price tag but I ain't mad at it, it was still a great burger nonetheless. The cosmic fries were below average and that could stem from the way the fries are made (shoestring style) but even then the seasoning on it was nothing special. The cosmic fries came with a cosmic sauce that was great and was a perfect addition to the burger. The Venus wings were solic with pretty good texture but ridiculously overpriced with a price tag of 13$ for 5 wings which is a scam, if you charging 15$ for wings they gotta be the best wings ever (they weren't). The Buffalo sauce that comes with the wings was definitely hot and the bba and ranch were decent. All in all, it's a solid spot that ! could see myself coming back to for their Mercury burger.

I usually don't choose seafood as a food option unless I'm at a seafood restaurant but thought I would try today! I am soo glad I did! I got the 2 taco combo with the Cheddar Chicken Ranch taco and the Island Shrimp taco with a side of fries! Everything was delicious but that shrimp taco was out of this world good!! It was so perfectly breaded with the most delicious pico de gallo and pineapple topping! And these tacos do not skimp out-they were huge and filled to the brim! Service was fabulous and incredibly fast! By the time I was done paying it was already done! I love that the food truck is an airstream trailer! How cool and retro of an idea has a restaurant! I can't wait to find them at our next event!

I had the pleasure of grabbing a bite here this past weekend…read more The staff was super nice! From beginning of order to grabbing my food was maybe 10 minutes. That is fast! I ordered the Old Bay Shrimp Basket. I wanted tacos, but as a Marylander, it is really hard to say no to Old Bay. The shrimp was tasty, the fries were well seasoned, but the true star was the spicy signature dipping sauce. It was spicy but not too much so. This food truck is worth another visit for sure.

I must admit, I really did not get the theme of this place. So, I asked the owner and he indicated…read morethat it was a fusion of different cultures. I'm not sure that that helped me understand this menu any better but, I asked him for a recommendation. He said that the tropical pollo ($10) was their award-winning dish. The meat - steak, chicken, or pork (which they were out of) - is served on a taco, in a wrap, or on a hoagie. The meals come with a side - fries, fresh tortilla chips, or cilantro lime slaw. The tropical pollo consisted of bourbon marinated chicken, cilantro lime slaw, pineapple salsa, and chipotle remoulade. As one who doesn't like a lot of sauces or soggy food, I asked for the remoulade sauce on the side. My meal was ready quickly and it looked delicious! The tortillas were stuffed and the fries were skinny! I took a bite of the taco without the sauce and the chicken was nicely marinaded but it needed more flavor, salt, in particular. The pineapple salsa was good but the cilantro slaw wasn't distinct enough to stand out. To add more flavor, I added some of the chipotle remoulade. The sauce had a little kick to it! Unfortunately, between the sauce, the juice from the meat, and the slaw, the tortillas were soggy, with juice lining the bottom the carton. The best part of the meal was the side. The fries were really good - thinly cut and crispy but not hard. Open for about a year, Wauga Wauga has a unique name, some interesting combinations, and a very friendly owner. Based on this experience, I won't be looking to find the truck any time soon but if I happen to run into it, I may try a different meat option.

The pulled pork had some fatty portions and also some over cooked. Tough to chew. They offered 4 different bbq sauces on the side. Texas toast on the side.
