    Shrimp etouffee & Fried Catfish (couldn't wait and had to take a bite)
    David D.

    Love this place. Tuesday & Thursday etouffee can't be beat. Need to get here on Monday for red beans and rice. Fried catfish is crispy with great flavor. Banana pudding is different from typical versions. They whip the pudding part so it is light and airy and the nilla wafers are crisp. If you want some NOLA staples, this is a great option.

    Etouffee special with shrimp and catfish fillet.

    I love this little new food truck. I've been there three times and every meal has been awesome. My first trip I had grilled fish with the best Mac and cheese and cornbread I've ever had in my life! The second time I had a huge shrimp Po boy, and today I had etouffee. I thought it was just going to be the etouffee, but it came with shrimp and a catfish fillet! They have a limited menu everyday so call ahead or check out their Instagram page for the day's meal.

    Amazing. Amazing and Amazing! There is not too many times I write a review while I'm in the car. I had to come and show this food truck some LOVE! We were headed to a BBQ place when we decided to try Err Thing New Orleans. We ordered the fried catfish, gumbo, shrimp étouffée, red beans and rice, it came with a piece of cornbread and a garlic toast. The service was great and the food came out quick. Everything was FLAVORFUL!! The catfish was definitely catfish. I'm not the only one that realized that some restaurants switch catfish for Swai.If you know your seafood you know what I'm talking about. The fish was season perfectly, it was moist and fresh. The étouffée came with huge shrimps and again very flavorful. The gumbo was full of chunks of shrimp, and the roux was made with love. The cornbread was sweet and sticky! The red beans and rice was amazing!!! Don't walk but run and come get you some authentic New Orleans, Cajun food. You will not be disappointed!!

    This is the best gumbo I have had in Austin. Sorry to the rest of those places trying their best, but this is the real deal. The potato salad also gets a passing grade and as a Louisiana girl I might be even more picky about potato salad than gumbo.

    Amazing. I grabbed the bowl of chicken and sausage gumbo. It comes with a drink....you're going to need that drink. Let me tell you it is STRAIGHT out of New Orleans. The aroma through the container was so pleasantly strong. Once I got back to work I didn't even get out the car for fear my coworkers would disturb this blessing of gumbo and cornbread. I just sat in the car and ate. Mind you with no music. This was the best. Oh...I have finally found better lemonade than CFA. It's here!!! Friendly and just all around good people. I will be back.

    Delicious shrimp po-boy with excellent cornbread included. Comes with lemonade and chips as well. Great spot if you're in the mood for delicious food from a casual location.

    The gumbo tasted very burnt charcoal, and it looks like they served me a gumbo they messed up on. I would not recommend this place.

You can really taste the love that went into all this food. This is a food truck right across from HEB mueller in that swimming pool parking lot. She's only open on the weekends and her food can be ordered on DoorDash but she has more menu items in person than on DoorDash. I online ordered and picked up 3 different orders. 2 of them were not ready and she had me wait in my car and she brought them out to me so I didn't melt in the heat. Now the important stuff the menu... Ok who knew you could fry ribs?!?! They were on point. 4 to an order. Ribs were still moist, the batter had a crunch, and the meat fell off the bone. The dirty rice was the best dirty rice I've ever eaten. It was loaded up with seafood The smothered pork chops were 2 to an order and 2 sides served on a bed of white rice. Also very moist and great flavor, the Mac n cheese was not runny which I personally hate when it's just a runny mess, the fried cabbage also had a great flavor and it was still crunchy. The jerk chicken had great flavor but it was ordered as mild (not by me) and it definitely needed the heat/spice,the jumbalaya side was also tasty We also got the hot Cheetos boudin balls (I forgot to take a picture) they were huge and not spicy at first bite the heat sneaks up on you. The strawberry crunch cake was a big slice and reminded me of strawberry cake doughnut but that banana pudding was also probably the best banana pudding I've ever eaten. I felt all the portions were huge and prices were fair. This definitely not a food truck to sleep on. I've been told she makes great oxtails but they sell out fast.

I ordered the fried fish plate with macaroni and cheese and candied yams, plus sides of sautéed cabbage and honey butter cornbread. My total came to just over $44, so I was expecting to be impressed. After ordering, someone came to the window and explained that they needed to make more mac & cheese and it would take 45 minutes. I requested a refund for that side, but when I received my order, it was included in the bag anyway. The food looked appealing, but my first bite of fish, while crispy, was flavorless. The mac & cheese wasn't mixed well and lacked seasoning. The candied yams had too much allspice, the sautéed cabbage was bitter, and the cornbread was crumbly rather than moist. Overall, I was disappointed--especially after waiting over 30 minutes for my food, having skipped breakfast in anticipation of this meal. Based on other reviews, I can see they've served great food, but unfortunately, today just wasn't that day.

However, on this particular day, I went by the food truck at 3 pm and all their plates were sold out. They only had two pans of seafood broil at $75, which I am told would feed 4 people. The stated hours are to 7 pm. I did not plan to buy food for 4 people...just one. The food truck manager said I should have called first to check to see if they had any plates left. Well, I could have called and so that is totally my bad. However, it is a reasonable expectation that you will not run out plates of food 4 hours before closing. I am going to be less likely to patronize this business in the future.
