Beignet trio
Tala M.

I've never had Mr. A Beignets but I have had beignets before. These were delicious. I ordered them from their food truck at a neighborhood event. I was a bit bummed that they only offered their Trio (3 large beignets) or the dozen (13 large beignets). Their normal menu also offers a dozen mini beignets and "add on" beignets. I was excited to try the minis but settled for the regular size. They offered 3 types of dipping sauces - Hershey's chocolate, Hershey's caramel and Nutella for $1 each. They were already heavily dusted with powdered sugar so I didn't bother with the sauces. Now, the beignets...piping hot and pillowy! So delicious. Mine were a tad overcooked so they were thinner than normal but still a yummy treat. I could only eat 2 so I plan to save one for breakfast...I wonder if they'll be good reheated?! I would love to see them have the option for cinnamon sugar as a topping in addition to powdered sugar. I wouldn't say these were any better than other beignets I've had but they're wonderful. The girl who took my order was very friendly too! Go get you some!

So when I first saw this place, I was imagining simple fried donuts, but when I got there I got these amazing powdered square beignets ($5 for 4). I have to say I was very impressed by how simple yet delicious it was. The beignet was fresh out of the fryer and the dough was perfectly fried. The powdered sugar paired well with the fried dough as well. I am personally a chocolate fan so did wish there was something to drizzle on top, but the beignets were honestly amazing the way they were. Would recommend eating them fresh as they did not taste as great when I got home. I also got their coffee. Nothing too special, but did have an earthy tone to it. I like where this food truck is located in downtown Apex. There are other food trucks next to it making it feel pretty lively. Ample parking as well. Staff is great and very friendly as well. Overall, love this place and I also think it is very unique. Would recommend checking it out if in downtown Apex.

Lovely pillowy beignets! They were delicious, but gave one less star because only 3 of them were $7. That seems a bit pricey. They are tasty however. So if you were searching for a beignet, you will not be disappointed with these. Of note, this is a food truck. So, it is best to check their website for their location.

We got these beignets at Peakfest in downtown Apex after seeing the truck around town. They are light on the inside and drenched in powdered sugar. Be prepared to get messy if you order these. They are good and would probably be better with coffee but I don't know if they are the best beignets I've ever had.

So, so delicious--the perfect breakfast on an overcast day on North Topsail. So glad we stopped at this amazing truck!

Finally got to try these wonderful goodies! We had both the mini and regular squares. In my opinion after taking them home, we dipped them in maple syrup! My my my! Sooo good!

Discovered today that this truck is located dangerously close to my house ! These beignets are the REAL THING. We recently went to Cafe Du Monde in New Orleans and I can seriously say without a doubt that these are equivalent to the beignets that we ate (on more than one day) there. The line does form but they are pretty quick about getting them out. Only downside is that there are no tables to sit and eat at. You do not want to eat these in your car unless you are about to clean it out. That yummy powder sugar can do some damage to your interior:

Never been to New Orleans but I can only imagine these are as good or better than what i would find in Louisiana.

I got a Chicken Tikka pizza (12", 8 pieces) for lunch - big enough for two people or two servings…read morefor one person. The taste was very good and a little spicy, which I really appreciate. The crust was not stellar. It was not thin (I prefer thick) but it was kind of limp, not crisp, so it was virtually impossible to pick up a single slice with my hands. I ended up cutting pieces to make them more manageable or used a fork under an entire slice to help support it while I ate. It didn't stop me from eating all the crust, up to the edges, which is my usual modus operandi. The plasticware was kind of on the shabby side. There were a few (less than a dozen) loose forks and spoons (not wrapped) in a station where you get such stuff. Curiously, there were no knives but I thought I would ask if I needed one. It turns out that I did want a knife, I asked the staff, they rooted around a bit, but couldn't find any at first. I keep a small supply of plasticware, napkins, etc in my car so I got a knife from there. In the meantime, the staff did turn up a couple of individually-wrapped plastic knives. I used mine instead and put the knives with the other plasticware for others to use. I ate half of the pizza at the restaurant and I got a takeaway box for the other half of the pizza for dinner. I will probably return to try other things.

This is a nice little restaurant. It was attached to a gas station, so it's very convenient for gas…read morea quick bite to eat. The food was fresh and out fast. I thought that it was a cool experience that they offered unlimited pani puri, and that is what our group had. It was fresh and nicely seasoned. We also tried Panugulu, which was fried crispy and out hot. They even had a Carrom board, which was my first time playing.
