They have a nice little seating area with shade, tables, and even turf with some music playing to set the mood. I ordered the chicken adobado on a whim after trying to decide on lunch the whole morning leading go up to this and it was like a wish had come true. My life after having this grilled, spiced, juicy, perfection of chicken will never be the same. Accompanied by green salsa, cactus, rice, beans, and a giant, hot tortilla this chicken adobado is worth seeking Tuka Taco out. It was cooked perfectly and expertly seasoned by a couple that could be your neighbors. Another review mentions the 20 minute wait and I can confirm, however, it is fully worth it because of the quality and quantity of food you're getting as well as supporting one of Springfield's local food trucks.

The street tacos themselves were okay I guess, they were the average street taco size....I had ordered one of each ; a Carne Asada, Carnitas and the Abodabo, while not bad tasting....the meat itself was chopped so finely, I couldn't distinguish any different flavor between them...the Carne Asada tasted no different from the Carnitas or Adobado now I ask honestly, how often does that happen? That's definitely a first for me. For all I could tell it was the same meat in all 3. Hot sauce would probably have helped Improve the overall flavor of these, but unfortunately the hot sauce I had selected and paid for was not included. Next the Birria ramen was mostly just noodles with a few scraps of semi tough birria beef and some huge chunks of Fat.... it was quite salty tasting, but not bad overall. I requested no cheese and yet there it was...whoever thought Mozzarella was an appropriate topping for this soup needs their taste buds examined. Just some chopped white onions and cilantro would have been fine. Honestly putting cheese on this is like putting cheese on chicken noodle soup or beef stew. The refried beans were completely Meh. The only spice I could taste was salt; the pinto beans tasted like they had been boiled and then partially mashed with a fork I had 2 bites and stick a fork in me I was done, however shockingly the Spanish rice was even worse than the beans... it was almost crunchy and not cooked properly at all...like moist, flavorful tender rice should be. Lastly the Potatoes and Nopales... the potatoes and cactus were boiled tender; both slightly salty neither tasted bad, but they weren't that great either so another Meh... I honestly doubt at this point that I will ever be back. This food overall tasted like the cooking of an amateur.

The Hibiscus Jerk Hut is about as close to a hidden gem as you can find in North Springfield. A…read moregood trucked parked at the corner of Glenstone and Florida in a parking lot next to the train tracks ran by a husband and wife straight from the Jamaica. They took my order right away and let me enjoy a ginger beer while the magic happened inside. The curry chicken dinner player came with steamed cabbage accented with some bell peppers and a side of rice. By all accounts, this was probably too much food but for the price it was an absolute bargain! This plate was loaded with so much flavor I forgot that I was sitting in the corner of a parking lot. With the palm trees swaying to my side and the sun shining, I was transported to the island myself! The amount of options on the menu is enough to make any customer happy. Whether you're looking for healthier options or that authentic jerk spice that Jamaica is known for. Great portions and options if you're on a tight budget or if you just want something outside of the Springfield norm.

It's a fantastic lunch spot and not a far drive from downtown. I've had rice bowls, the pastas, and some sandwiches. My favorite is the creamy jerk chicken pasta. The food truck is nicely decorated and has a good seating area, perfect for a nice day. The owners are wonderful people and put a lot of love into these dishes. If you haven't tried it yet, go now, I promise you won't regret it. Go show them some love and they'll show you it back.

But both are great! I got the teriyaki chicken hibachi and it was GAS. So good. It comes with ginger and yum yum sauce which I poured on top of everything as you can see in the picture. It comes with so much food, so I had plenty to eat leftover for a late night post-wedding meal. The food truck workers were awesome and great to work with! 10/10 experience.

I do tell my friends about them all the time. I'm always looking forward to my next visit.

Overall their food was up to par compared to home cooked meals, the only thing that was lacking was the flavor. There was definitely flavor but I would personally like a little more spices added into the mix. I also thought that their red sauce was a little over the top on spice without the flavor, on a high note their verde salsa had great flavor and the perfect amount of spice. Their agua Fresca specifically their Jamaica (hibiscus) was absolutely amazing!! Lastly the service was great and very nice! Overall this place has been the closest to tasting like home and would absolutely recommend it to anyone looking for a fast of home!

One thing I wanted to do was find a unique style of burger. Yes, I love a good cheeseburger But sometimes I like to find a good fusion/twist on a classic and I think I might've found it here. Burger review Smash-burger taco 9.9/10 When I say, I want a smash patty what Casey gave me was exactly that he literally executed a perfectly smashed patty with crispy edges also had some braised onions smashed into the patty but one thing I feel like certain elements are required when making a smashed burger, and understanding your burger blend to me is the most essential and Casey knew the assignment ..... before I forget its not on the menu at the 14 mill but you most definitely can ask for it Overall: I understand this isnt a traditional burger but in my eyes it's still one and I would argue this has to be one of the best in Springfield I feel like I should get with some of my foodie friends and host a burger fest/comp in the ozarks area and I'd put money thw would be top 5 but that's just my opinion lol.

I got the sweet Thai chili shrimp taco, Yin Yang shrimp taco and the ultimate Philly notchos taco. My first disappointment was how long I saw mine sit under the light while they waited on the girls tacos to get ready. My three were barely warm and I found them to be mediocre at best. The flavor on them all was sorely lacking. I also felt it was over priced for what we got I wish I had gone and gotten the quiche at the nearby bakery instead. Staff was pleasant but not overly friendly. Maybe we went on a bad day but I won't go back. I will try another vendor in the food hall next time. The food hall is clean and the music inside is a nice volume. Plenty of seating.
