    chicken bites
    Marcus J.

    Indian fried chicken... never before seen until now. Insane crunch while still maintaining that juicy flavor blast, the version with apples on top is wild, and they even have duck fat fries. Make sure you try that 65 sauce, he's got his own version. Chef is doing it like never before and all his recipes are next leve; ! You can tell he takes pride in the food. We will definitely be back. This is in a food truck area outside of a bar. good seating

    Paneer sando with peri peri fries
    Ashley J.

    A really unique concept and delicious food! It did seem a little bit pricey for food truck food, my meal was $20, but my sandwich was yummy and it was a fun experience. Food came out pretty quickly but it was definitely fresh. There's a cute seating area between the food trucks so plenty of place to sit and enjoy in person or you could do take out.

    Nuggets
    Allie H.

    Omgggg I am obsessed with these nuggets. To be clear I am not a boneless wing girly so I was not sure how I would feel. However, these nuggets are delicious. Got them in the street Szechuan and loved it. Would maybe go up a spice level next time because these weren't as spicy as I expected. Boyfriend got the sando with peri peri which was also yummy. Not a huge fan of the tikka fries but I'd try a different type next time.

    Street schezwan and bhenncchoo
    Darian C.

    Chicken is crispy and super flavorful. I thought the street schezwan was pretty good and the bhenncchoo was super spicy. I enjoyed the yogurt sauce and wished I got to try their tikka sauce but they ran out. I thought the fries were alright, they could be crispier and they were also a bit soggy even though we were eating them fresh/right when it came out. You should get there before they close because they start running out of things around 8-8:30. It was about a 30 min wait for 2 orders of nuggets and 2 sandwiches at 7:45 pm.

    This place was brand new to me - my date recommended it and I'd never heard of it so went for it. It's inside a little food area next to a parking lot so there are spots there or on the street. There are lots of little tables outside where you can eat too which is nice. On to the food - I was actually really blown away by how delicious it was! They have different ways of preparing the chicken and different marinades. I got the mid spicy one on "chicken nuggets" which came fried with bay leaves. It seemed simple but OMG the flavor of this chicken was BOMB -- soooo flavorful and the sauces eg chipotle were fantastic. My date got a fried chicken sandwich and said it was also incredible, it looked like it! The workers told us they are new and won an award recently for being a great Austin food truck spot. Can confirm they're worth that hype -- seriously I would come here again any time. Really love the chicken

    Stopped by Guppy's on a weekend trip to Austin. The food was great (slightly preferred the burger to the nuggets) though less spicy than expected. Would suggest anyone who loves spice get their spiciest flavor. There was an unfortunately long wait, so I'd say be careful if tight on time. Raj was super friendly and made our experience a great one. Would definitely come back!

    Peri peri pieces
    Robert A.

    100% recommend. Really flavorful and delicious sandwich and bites. So much food for the price. The duck fat fries were rich and tasty. Wonderful head level for the Szechuan on the sandwich and periperi on the bites. Friendly staff and some covered seating. Will definitely be back to try more flavors.

    Chicken sando (kashmiri chili) was stunning, truly perfectly cooked. Incredibly juicy with the crispiest exterior you've ever tasted, technique was true perfection. Mango yogurt drink also very very tasty. Fries were very underwhelming and left alot to be desired, a bit soggy from the sauce and not super flavorful. Nevertheless, the sandwich alone and drink are enough to get this into the low 5 star range! And reasonable prices too! Small outdoor seating area by the food trucks, and close to neighboring bar for more fans and seating! Good experience

    Honey Badger Nuggets
    Kevin M.

    We had a fairly decent experience at Guppy's. Everything was priced well and we received friendly service. However the food itself didn't hit the mark. It wasn't bad just underwhelming. It didn't have those bold, layered flavors you would typically find in Indian cuisine. We tried their third highest spice level "Honey Badger" and It barely registered as spicy. If you enjoy heat I would jump higher on the list. We also tried their garlic duck fat fries, which were seasoned extremely well. To the point you couldn't enjoy them. Extremely salty, I'm not one to hate on salt but they went overboard. I don't think that's the norm could have just been a slip on their part.

    That moment you meet a legend‼ Outside of technology, that's chefs for me‼ Chef Raj of Guppys ATX has created the best fried chicken concoction I've ever consumed! His Indian style blend of spices was perfection across every single bite. If I wasn't on Tirzepatide I would have downed at least three of these back to back. Yes! They're that good! Trust me, if I'm posting about it, I would go back again, & it means so should you. That's not all! It warms my heart when I get the chance to meet the creator in the kitchen for these feasts. That job is never easy, & let's face it, most of us are demanding pains in the ass. Also feasts are one of the best ways to evaluate friends, especially those being considered for wifey material. How a person treats the staff at a restaurant can be a great indicator of red flags. I've watched someone drill the waiter for 30 minutes about all her fictional self-diagnosed conditions as the group sat there in amazement. Before the lovely waiter walked away I caught her attention and tossed my prayer hands, then raised the tip to 30% at the end. That same person took home all the left overs. I guess the "allergies" were real... Right. That was the last time she was ever invited. The moral of this story! Always appreciate the folks working their ass off to take care of you. No exceptions! The job isn't easy. It takes sweat, guts, and patience. There's no need to add complexity or be entitled.

    Went here with a couple friends to try. It's a little bit tucked away in the back so not with the other food trucks nearby. It's right next to the zucchini kill bakery. It's all fusion of Indian street flavors meet spicy fried chicken. I got the street Szechuan sando, garlic duck fat fries, and a mango lassi. The flavors worked really well together and the chicken was nice and juicy. The mango lassi creamy and the duck fat an extra edge to the fries. Service was great and the guy who runs it was really helpful in deciding what to get and making you feel welcome. Since it's inside another outdoor bar there is a lot of outdoor seating so great to hang out when the weather isn't super cold. I will say this had lots of sauce so things soaked in pretty quickly. Definitely eat when you get it and don't let it sit too long before tasting otherwise you may have some soggy bread. 10/10 recommend getting nice and fresh!

    It's a nice food truck at UT Austin that's open late. We had just left the Bass Concert Hall, five…read moreminutes away, and to get to our show on time, we missed dinner. It was now after 10 pm and we had an hour drive ahead of us to get home. So we turned to Yelp and found this gem. We parked on the street. Students were walking by the whole time, which added to the vibe. You order and pay on an app and they call your name when it's ready. They specialize in bento boxes to go. Not your miso soup and ginger salad bento boxes, though. You won't find sushi rolls and pickled ginger. But it's a dinner in a box with rice, veggies, a choice of protein, you pick one of five sauces, and you have a choice of adding curry for $2. Add the curry! It's a Japanese golden curry. Yum. It's basically gravy. A very tasty gravy. And who doesn't like rice and gravy?! Can they get away with calling this a bento box? A cardboard box with no California roll and no miso? Why, yes, actually! Bento boxes are originally designed to be meals on the go. It's the kind of meal you buy in Japan for a train ride. And this definitely fits the bill. Portions are healthy. The rice was moist and well-seasoned. The broccoli was tender-crisp. The curry came in a separate container so you can add as much or as little as you want (we added it all). We had one chicken dish and one beef dish. The chicken is fried and the beef is braised and shredded, with strips of onion. They were both tastey, and both were designed for quick service from a food truck. Despite the line ahead of us, our meal came quickly. It was a cold night so we ate in our car, parked on the street. But it's a quiet, street and they had picnic tables we could have used if we'd brought ticket coats for the 40 degree, breezy night. Next time I'll check the weather report before leaving the house! We finished our meal and headed out for the long drive home, very full, and very satisfied.

    Self service, you order on your own on the kiosk. I do miss interacting with people. The food was…read morereasonably priced, I thought it was a really good value, a nine dollar bento box would definitely have lasted me two meals. Plenty of sauces to choose from. While there isn't seating in the parking area of the food truck it's right next to campus and there are plenty of seating areas available

    I've been wanting to try this place for so long and I'm so glad I finally did The chicken tenders…read morewere pretty big and juicy. I got the spicy tenders and they had a spicy aftertaste but they weren't TOO spicy - my nose only sweat a little The spicy chicken paired with the fluffy sweet waffle with syrup was a crazy good combination. I love a good sweet and savory combo The french fries were gorgeous. Thicc, crisp outside, soft inside, and some yummy ass seasoning They were great on their own but once I dipped them in the longhorn sauce ... GAME OVER. ugh so good. Sandro got the chicken sandwich and it was just as good. The brioche bun was toasted and it came with ranch and pickles (he asked for no pickles though) He also added some of the longhorn sauce to his sandwich and it tasted great. I don't know what they put in the longhorn sauce to make it so good and addicting... but that sauce HITTTTSSSS Last but not least, the mac&cheese was SUPER creamy and did not last very long because it was very tasty I love Longhorn Chicken. We got great service and everything we ate was absolutely delicious. They get 5 chefs kisses from me ‍

    Summary: great place to binge eat after a long day! Food is the perfect compliment to a late night!…read more FOOD: chicken tenders, waffle, and Mac and cheese combo is an absolute must. It's the perfect meal to pick you right back up! Decently priced and worth every penny! However, they may run out before closing-- then I'd recommend the halal truck in that same food truck alley! SERVICE: They're good people who work hard, give a tip it won't kill you, but it'll make their day! Cheers
