Solid dog and I really enjoyed the poppy bun. Cake shake: 4.5/5. Tastes just like you would expect if you blended a slice of chocolate cake into a shake. But don't bother with a straw, cuz this sucker is thick. Well done.

My friend and I were waiting for them to call our order number but it was taking a while so I went to the counter and the order had been ready sitting there they just weren't calling out the orders. I'm glad I went up otherwise my food would have gotten cold! I'm not sure if their sound systems were down to call out the order numbers for pick up or if they just don't do that. I came here with my friend as I had never tried the beef sandwich and she highly recommended the cheese fries. I also heard great things about the chocolate cake slice. I added peppers to the beef sandwich to give it some spice but besides that it was bland! I was disappointed but I thought the Chicago dog would make up for it but the bun was soggy. The best part of my order were the cheese fries and I got a free slice of chocolate cake since it was my birthday month! The chocolate cake was the best chocolate cake I've ever had that wasn't homemade. Very moist and lots of frosting! I would come back for the fries and the cake, but I wouldn't order the beef sandwich or Chicago dog again.

I got "The Mac" mac & cheese grilled cheese and fries. It didn't feel heavy/greasy which I appreciated. It's a very creative food truck and would recommend trying it if you see it.

Had the opportunity to try Cheesies!…read more They had a food truck up at an event I was at and my boyfriend's brother recommended I try the Tenderizer! In between two pieces of Texas toast there was cheddar cheese, mozzarella cheese, bacon crumbles, fried chicken tenders, drizzled with sweet baby rays sauce, ranch, and hot sauce. Each bite had so much delicious flavors going on! It was impossible not to love! What a comforting sandwich! Next time I would love to try the Mac and cheese grilled cheese!

Sabor no more. Must be new owners. I've been going here for 20 years and this little corner had it…read moreall. But now, not even the puertorican accent . The food was ok, or so-so...which is bad considering their history. The lechón was mediocre, no seasoning (before you could see it on there.) now it looks like chicken or turkey. The alcapurrias were super greasy, hollow (?) and flavorless. Alcapurrias should be more substantial, not super soft like these. The rice was ok, but again it had no authentic flavor. The pastelillos (ground beef empanadas) were thin and dry. They may have been from yesterday. The passion fruit juice (parcha) is still delicious and the only good thing I had, besides Coco Rico soda. They must have new owners trying to mimic old recipes because this was our second chance attempt. We will now go to La Bomba, Jibaritos y Más or Las Palmas when they open.

My co-worker and I headed over to "El Secreto del Sabor" food truck and grabbed a quick lunch…read morebefore driving back to our store for the closing shift. She's Mexican but told me about this place. She said there are several food trucks stationed in Humboldt Park, yet this one is her favorite. I believe I had Puerto Rican food before when I was out and about in the city, though I never paid attention to any aromatic mobile vehicle in this neighborhood. Umm...Rosa J., did I not tell you to stay vigilant? Fortunately I had some cash on hand. I scrambled $7 for an order of bistec mixta, which came with arroz. Wow, the rice was SO fresh, and the steak was easy to chew and flavorful. When the young lady was preparing for my food, I was staring at a copious amount of "frituras." They smelled heavenly and were definitely soliciting my taste bud. Well, I gotta get back to work. Fried food doesn't mesh too well with my working stomach. Surely we will meet each other again when I have a day off. I didn't see any credit card machine inside the truck, so I have no doubt it is cash-only. I didn't really notice if their hours were posted on the exterior. I bet it depends based on weather or seasonality.

I ordered their chicken wrap with a side of hummus and some hot sauce. I placed the order online and picked it up at my exact time. The food I ordered was tasty and for the price I would say I had a very good dinner. But.....(I guess there's sometimes a but) my wrap fell apart alike a sinking ship. What I thought was a hand held sandwich, turned out to be a fork and spoon experience. I wasn't dejected, as what I ordered was very good. I was just hoping for a different experience. I'll try it again and eat at their store instead of bringing it home.

He was very friendly and told me it was one of their most popular items, I can tell why! It had a great flavor and a great snap to it! I think this is the only Chicago dog house that serves the apple brandy duck sausage, but the other locations are also good as well, they just don't have the duck sausage. If you're near this location I'd recommend it!

I got some morcilla, a pastillo, an alcapurria, and a cornmeal breaded cheesy finger, the name escapes me. The morcilla tasted like it had been in the pan all day, wasn't spicy at all and had a bad after taste. The alcapurria was short on filling and short on flavor. The pastillo was filled with chicken which I had not expected and the pastry was flavorless. The only thing I liked were the cheesy breaded fingers, the name beginning with an "s". I won't be back unless I can't find these delicious breaded cheesy fingers elsewhere.

Their food truck doesn't offer everything on the restaurant's menu; there were about 9 items. I decided to order the Currywurst Mit Pommes, something I never tries before. It consists a bed of of "crisp" fries, what I think was a boiled and sliced bratwurst, and a sweet curry sauce. I also had a can of Coke. You can't do anything to mess up a Coca-Cola so we'll skip that. The people working the food truck know their stuff. They offer gluten-free and vegan items for those of us who need the options. They were also friendly and patient. The Currywurst was just okay. The crisp fries were soggy from the sauce. And I wish the brat was grilled instead of boiled. It would have made for a better meal. The concept is good. I've heard many good reviews but I think they were mainly the restaurant and not the food truck. I also heard from more than one person that the best item on the menu is the Doner Kebab. If we make it to their restaurant, I'll the Doner Kabob then.
