    You know it's authentic Jamaican when: 1. They list over 10 types of patties on the menu but when you ask what they have they say "Meh have beef, chicken an' fish". 2. When you ask if the jerk chicken is spicy and you get a side glance and a wicked smile. 3. It comes on a truck. 4. You ask for a menu and you get an old yellowed piece of paper that's seeing the light of day for the first time. I've seen this truck around the neighborhood a few times and I finally stopped to try it out. It's manned by a sweet Jamaican lady who is serving up some very decent food. I got jerk chicken and fish patties, along with a jerk chicken platter. The patties were decent... I found the fish more interesting. The jerk chicken platter was GREAT. The jerk was properly spicy without the need for any added hot sauce, and the plantains and veggies were good. From Mon-Thur they're at 9th St and 7th Ave. Fri-Sun they're at 10th St and 5th Ave. Kudos to them for setting up in this part of town... it's a welcome addition.

    Delicious beef patty! They got it right! I enjoyed it immensely and didn't even want to wait for it to cool! I didn't try the food but I enjoyed speaking to the lovely chef and will stop by anytime I'm in in the neighborhood.

    The rubber band I nearly chocked on.

    The $12 veggie roti and steamed veggies are sumptuous. I enjoy the Friday visits near Columbus Circle & Broadway.

    Whenever I see these food trucks, the determinator for whether I try it or not is based SOLELY on…read morewhether or not they have beef tongue available lol. None of the Americanized Mexican Trucks and Restaurants have that specific cut of meat and frankly, it's my favorite by far so when I saw it on the menu in this truck as I was passing by, I had to give it a shot. It's honestly really easy to tell whether or not the tongue is done well because it's either tender and delicious with a slight bounce, or it's excessively chewy and bland, and I'm glad to say that this is the former. Everything else is just baseline good quality, from the wrap to the rice and beans and all the fixings inside as well. While definitely not the biggest burrito I've ever had, it's a pretty good size overall so I can't really complain.

    There's a chance I've gaslit myself because I'm pretty sure the taco truck outside/near Union Hall…read moreused to be a different one. But anyway, it's now Morelos (one of my favorite spots from Sunset Park). My friend and I were turned away from late night pizza, so this was our consolation prize. Scratch that, this should've been the first place prize. Like so many taco places in NYC, they've leaned into making birria tacos. We asked if they were any good, and they were wishy-washy about it, so we didn't order them. Got some al pastor and cochinita pibil tacos instead. While we were waiting for them, the guy we spoke to actually gave us a sample of the birria. I know it was the end of the night, but super nice of him! Also... he was right. Don't get them. The al pastor and cochinita pibil ones, however, were pretty solid. Never had cochinita pibil before, but it might be my new favorite. Will definitely be back on another one of my drunken escapade nights!

    I tried their Birria deluxe set that comes with a Birria taco, Birria empanada, Birria Mulita, and…read moreconsome for $16. That's a great deal! The Birria taco was good! The empanada was not like the usual closed off empanada, it was like open like a taco but instead of a taco shell, it was like the empanada dough. I didn't try the mulita yet but it was huge. Filling between two tortillas and I saw some guac filling as well. The consome was good! Not too salty - and has general pieces of meat inside the soup. The tacos were good but I felt like it lacked a little depth. I added some of the mango(?) it was a sweetish salsa and that gave it a nice little kick.

Whenever friends visit my area, I consider this place one of the staples that I'll bring them to. In the summertime, I have even made use out of their limited seating outdoors. Usually, the service is fairly straightforward--you order, get your receipt then move down to the window and wait for your name to be called. Not much pleasantries but they get the job done. However, today I had an experience that left a poor taste in my mouth and honestly will put me off from going back for at least a while. When I went up to order, I asked for "the combo with birria tacos and consome", the cashier confirmed with me if I wanted "just Birria tacos? Or the combo?", I replied, "right, the birria taco combo." I think trying to be overly explicit led to the misunderstanding, because I got my order with only 3 Birria tacos. When I asked about the missing consome, she repeatedly insisted that I said no to the combo. After prolonged back and forth, she asked if I want consome, and when I said yes, she proceeded to ring it up on its own for $4. The thing is, I had already pulled out a dollar to cover it, as it's only a 50 cent difference between the combo and 3 tacos alone. I pointed this out, to which she shoved the consome at me with a look of disgust and told me she didn't want the money. I left the dollar in the tip jar anyway, but I felt uncomfortable from the exchange and also that it held up the delivery drivers and other patrons waiting in line to order.
