Delicious! I had…read morethis taco truck for lunch recently and it was delicious. I ordered the Chorizo Tacos and my daughter ordered the Chicken Tacos. The green sauce is so good! We didn't realize it already came with the green sauce on it and ordered a side of sauce. I also ordered the habanero sauce. It's spicy but not so spicy that it can't be handled and the habanero flavor comes through. It's also a light creamy sauce. Likely mayo added to calm the heat of the pepper. We each ordered 3 tacos and were stuffed! The tacos are filled with meat and very filling to eat. We likely could've just ordered two each. We'll be back to try out more of their menu soon.

Wow. Is this place a mirage? Was I dreaming? In an area that is severely lacking in locally owned…read morefood, this little truck is a breath of fresh air. It has been posted up in front of the Marathon gas station on old 74 for a bit now. If you were driving by you might miss it, but the buzz surrounding it was so much so, that I just had to try them out. The first time I stopped by was around 3pm on my way home and several other people were also in line. The very kind owner instantly greeted me and explained what they had that day. He took my order and they got to work. The people already waiting raved about the place and were super friendly. Everyone, including the staff, chatted and it made the wait go by quick. I ordered the chicken tacos, and the carnitas tacos. The owner had recommended just 2, but I had been accustomed to quite small tacos at other places so I got 4. Boy was he right, they were so packed full of meat that I could barely finish two! The other two made a great second meal at a later time! The corn tortillas were delicious and very authentic. Each succulent and very flavorful meat was topped with onions, cilantro and your choice of green, red, or hot sauce or all of the above. For my first time the owner recommended I try each separately with the hot sauce on the side. Also included was fresh lime and a grilled poblano pepper. Everything was amazing and I can confidently say this is the best authentic tacos I have ever had, anywhere. I cant say I have a favorite sauce because they each have sensational flavor, including the hot sauce. One try and I was hooked. I started following them on Facebook to catch certain days where they had special tacos, such as steak (which cost a tiny bit more due to the quality of the steak meat). The steak was just as amazing. They also serve breakfast. The second time I visited I did not know the extra cost until I received my order. Since it is cash only, I did not have enough. A kind person in line, who also shared the addiction to this spot, gifted me the $2 I was short. I hope to pay this forward in the future at another visit to my magical friendly neighborhood taco dealer! This isnt just great food, its an experience full of great people... who are also observing covid safety despite being outside btw.

First of all their menu is legit - for example... Cabeza and tongue taco! Yum! Asada taco - was actually really good and flavorful compared to what I've had at other places here in Cincinnati. Pastor taco - this was really tasty, the marinade on the pastor really came through and the char of the pastor really was good when paired with the pineapple in the taco. Cabeza taco - Heck yes! I will come back here to order many cabeza tacos LOL, this was actually really good and sometimes it's really hard to get cabeza right and they do it right!

The salsa had a good flavor and a nice kick to it. The shrimp cocktail was interesting. A tomato sauce, onion and cilantro was with the shrimp. Also quite good! My husband devoured it. He also enjoyed the tongue and head tacos he had. As did my daughter with the chicken tacos. The tacos had lots of onions and cilantro. Yum! The chorizo burrito was delicious! Quite greasy, as chorizo tends to be, but so, so good. I will definitely stop back soon to try more of their menu.

It's hard to beat a good taco truck and it seems lots are popping up around greater Cincinnati. My…read moreboss mentioned this one recently so we decided to check it out. Definitely glad we did because it was really good. This taco truck is located at a gas station across from a Casey's. It's easy to see and there some decent parking nearby. Their menu is much bigger than I anticipated and loaded with tasty options. But I had to try the tacos first, that's my litmus test for a taco truck. If a truck can't do tacos right, they likely can't do much else right. This truck, like many, is cash only, so no cards here. I ordered one steak taco, one chicken taco, and one al pastor taco. My boss ordered a red tamale, two chicken tacos, and one steak taco. We hardly waited at all before our order was up and the price was nice. The tacos were very tasty, especially with the red sauce, which packed dome heat and good flavor. My boss liked his too, especially the chicken tacos. This is an excellent taco truck and absolutely one to check out when in the Eastgate area. I'll have to introduce my lady to it sometime because I know she'll like it too.

This is going to be a quick review since its an update…read more.. I drove almost 3 and a half hours total to get to this guys food truck this afternoon. If that doesnt say how good it is then let me summarize it a little bit. The lobster feels Fresh, the bread its the perfect ratio for the BIG amount of lobster that they put on them, awesome flavors, great service and the price even though at first glance you may say its a little up there... LOOK AT THE PICS! They dont shy on the lobster meat, its well worth it. 'You wont finish the roll and stay with bread on the hand with no lobster, you may finish it and then use the fork for the lobster that fell on the plate' Highly recommend them!

He told me about it and instantly I wanted to check them out! A Mexican food truck with a smoker! Wow! You know the food is going to be good! They have outdoor seating, serve breakfast, lunch and dinner. We went for lunch. Their menu has a lot to offer. Tacos, quesadillas, tortas, empanadas, tamales, sides, and more!!! All in reasonable pricing. They do accept credit cards. I ordered: -Barbacoa taco (2) -Barbacoa quesadilla -Pastor taco -Asada taco Food was out right away and I was in heaven with the tacos.

I absolutely LOVE a good food truck, especially when it comes to tacos, because some of the best…read moretacos I've ever had came from little food trucks. When I first saw this truck show up at a Marathon station near my work, I knew I had to try it out, and both my boss and my new coworker agreed to give it a shot. Definitely glad we did because we ALL enjoyed it. We went on a Thursday, and it looked like they've already accumulated a big fan base with all the people driving up for to-go orders. The menu is very simple, just tacos for $4 a piece and burritos for $11, but they make them VERY well. I decided to try a campechanos burrito (steak and chorizo) and both my boss and coworker ordered the same. They accept both cash and credit card which is very nice. They give you a pager when you order so you know when your food is ready and they get their orders out FAST. They don't have drink options, but good thing they're next to a Marathon station, so that solved that problem. Our order was done very fast and their burritos are almost enough for two meals but so tasty that you'll finish it in one. They come with a spicy red sauce and a cool avocado sauce, so it's like a yin and yang of sauces, one lights you up and the other cools you down. Both are very tasty too. Overall, for the price and quality, this truck is hard to beat. I'd highly recommend checking them out. I'll definitely bring my lady along next time.

They also have an area in the parking lot for RVs if you want to spend the time to see the whole store. They have foods from all over the world at great prices. They have fruits and vegetables that I've never heard of, meats included alligator, kangaroo, bison, ostrich and many many more! They have whole section of cheeses , beer, wine, tobacco etc and you can get a drink and take with you while you shop. Next time I go I am going to have to stay longer just to see everything. They also have some cool things in the store. What looks to be porta potties opens up to a full size restrooms, a fire truck I. The hot sauce section and many other neat things. I highly recommend that you check it out

On a recent trip to the Cincinnati area to visit with family, we made the stop at Jungle Jim's on…read morethe first afternoon were were in town, which was on a Saturday in September. Jungle Jim's International Market is truly unlike any store I have ever been. It is hard to describe, but it is a grocery store, international market, restaurant, bar, and more, but all on steroids. They even have their own podcast! There are so many sections and areas in this store, that if you truly took your time to shop, it would probably take an entire day to see and experience it all. It is a must-stop if you are visiting Cincinnati, or are local to the area and have never been. There are two locations of this business, but we visited the Eastgate one this time. It specifically is located on Eastgate S Drive, in a strip with a few other businesses on each end. This is in the heart of the business district for the area, so it is not hard to locate and navigate to. The signage on the front facade is huge, colorful, and distinct. There is even a tram-type vehicle suspended above the street, so you will not miss it. Since this is in a business-heavy area, there is a ton of parking all around. We visited on a Saturday, and the parking lot out front was quite busy, but we still had no issue finding a spot just a minute or two walk away from the entrance. Once you walk in, that is when the fun begins. There is so much going on throughout the entire store, but in a good way. Similarly to a typical grocery store, there are different departments and areas for different items. However, the size of everything here is so much more grand. Each section could truly be its own store, given both the footprint and the variety of items available for purchase. This goes for both the "normal" grocery areas, as well as the international and specialty items. Not only is the variety of items available impressive, but the manner in which they are displayed is also very appealing. Each area is decorated with large displays and signage that hang from the ceiling, giving the whole place a whimsical and fun atmosphere. It is fun to not only shop the products, but see what kind of decor and sculptures will find you in the next area. I loved the beehive with rotating bees in the honey section! In addition to grocery and other food items, there are sections with cookwares, beer/wine/alcohol, cigars, clothing, pet items, seasonal items, and much more. I am sure you could do your regular grocery trip here, but it might take you a little longer due to both the size of the store and desire to peruse all of the different items they have! Another fun aspect of Jungle Jim's is the variety of dining options. There are several places to purchase prepared foods, most of them being around the bar area. There is also a Sushi section near the main entrance. The full-service bar offers different tastings, weekly specials, alcoholic slushies, and much more. We took some time to enjoy a brew during our visit. It was fun to walk around and shop while enjoying some beer. The store has different areas and stations for tastings, samples, demos, and events. They have an entire calendar on the website that outlines some of the various tastings and events they have monthly. Some of my favorite sections in the store were the Bakery and the Sauce/Spice area. The Bakery has many different fun and unique items that they make themselves. There are also different vendors and other local businesses featured not only in the bakery, but throughout the store. As far as the Sauce section, I truly have never seen so much hot sauce variety in my life. It is really fun to look around here and find something that you did not even know existed. The service here was very good overall. There are a lot of employees, and everyone we interacted with was helpful. Tons of checkout lines were open, and we did not have to wait super long to make our purchases. The bar had a slightly long line, but it was not terrible. There are some good values to be found here, if you look in the right places. I would definitely look at both the weekly ad and signage around to find some good deals. On our visit, I found some energy drinks for about $1 a can, which is a very good price. Some things will be more expensive, given that it is an international market, but overall I thought the pricing was fair for most items. This is a must if you are in Cincinnati for any length of time. Definitely budget a few hours if you want to look around and see all the store has to offer. I would advise grabbing a cart and your walking shoes, because the store is very large. I always love coming here and checking out the selection, even if I am not necessarily hunting for anything specific. This place is great for anyone, as there will be something you will enjoy or want to try here. Plus, they are a locally-owned business supporting other locally-owned businesses. Highly recommend stopping at Jungle Jim's!
