It doesn't seem like they move around too much and are instead generally set up in a parking lot off Madison Boulevard with a few other businesses. They keep their FB page regularly updated and often run specials with Puerto Rican dishes that are often hard to find commercially in town. The trailer is small and a little nondescript so I missed it at first. There are one or two small folding tables set up in front of it but it's mostly a carryout spot. Customers were ordering in both English and Spanish but the employees/owner (?) had no trouble navigating either language. I didn't want a huge lunch and they specialize in more snack-ish type items anyway, so I ordered one beef and one chicken empanada, an alcapurria, and a stuffed potato bite. It was super hot so I also asked which of the Puerto Rican drinks was their favorite; the employee directed me toward a cola champagne so I got one of those as well. The food was cooked fresh and service was very pleasant and friendly throughout. They even offered for me to wait in my car and they'd bring my food to me, but I was content to stand by the truck. I took my goodies back home to split with my husband and we were quite happy. The only item I didn't like was the champagne cola but I truly had no idea what to expect on that front and if I'd known more about what it was I probably would've gotten something different. It was cloyingly sweet and a little flat and definitely not like the colas we have in the contiguous United States, lol. It reminded me of a cream soda, which I historically don't like. Anyway, that aside, I mostly liked everything else. My least favorite item was the stuffed potato; it was okay but I probably wouldn't order it again. It was a little on the greasy/blander side. The alcapurria was also a little greasy but had great flavors and I was glad to try a new-to-me food. The kind of crispy and crumbly texture was enjoyable and the meaty filling was rich and savory. The empanadas were the best! We couldn't decide which one we liked more (leaned slightly toward beef). Both were absolutely loaded with fillings. The chicken one had so much flavor and was so juicy and succulent. The pastry/shell part was delightfully flaky and crispy. The beef was filled with unctuous meat and subtle spice. Awesome empanadas! Definitely worth a try to nab some Puerto Rican food in the Huntsville/Madison area.

One of the workers was really helpful in explaining how the menu worked and what the items were. I went with some of his recommendations like the Malta India beverage and the Veggie empanada. The food is served within 5-10 minutes and is hot. The empanadas are flaky. My pictures don't do all the empanadas justice. There's a little seating near the food truck. I ordered the following: Churro Cheesecake (3/5): it was visually appealing with a nice touch of diced strawberries on top. The bottom and top were a little burnt. It wasn't incredibly sweet. Veggie Empanada (5/5): The empanada was flaky and wonderful. The veggies paired well. I'd get this again. Pizza Empanada (2/5): I felt like the dough was made out of puff pastry. It was different from the other empanadas. It did taste like pizza, but probably won't get again. Chicken Empanada (4/5): There was a good amount of meat. It wasn't dry and had good flavor. Corn Stick with Cheese (4/5): It had like a cornbread consistency, but was a little softer. The cheese inside wasn't that noticeable. Malta India (5/5): The beverage was malty. It has raw cane sugar, and a real treat during the meal. Makes me want to find this at international markets now. I recommend giving this place a try!

My long time in Florida made those and Italian my favorites. There are amazing examples of all three in Florida. This place had a great menu, even for a special event ( see the pictures). I had the tripleta sandwich. Pastrami, chicken, and Italian sausage with onions and peppers in a roll. The sandwich was huge. I also got a beef empanada. The largest one of I've seen in years. You really get your money's worth from them. I love a good food truck, such a pleasant atmosphere to sit outside and eat outside. Definitely support these guys. Quick and courteous. They're trying to bring an amazing cuisine to the region. Try Puerto Rican food and you will find a new favorite. Fried plantains are a true guilty pleasure. They are on Sparkman Friday through Sunday, and at the Arsenal the rest of the week. Give them a try and you'll be hooked. A great addition to the Huntsville food scene.
