I was at Hi Sign for a political rally and over the two options for food I took a chance with Nyam. The man greeted me at the truck window and looked like he was prepping for the first order. He politely said, "give me a minute, brother," which already told me the vibe was going to be great. I wanted pretty much everything on the menu but I thought I would be gluttonous and get everything fried. The yuca fries were insanely delicious and came with an incredible dipping sauce -- the same one that comes with the empanadas. Holy hell, the empanadas were otherworldly! There is so much chicken in them and it is seasoned to perfection. Once again the dipping sauce...I could eat it with a spoon. Weirdly enough one of the highlights of this experience was the slaw. It was super bright and fresh. I could eat a whole bowl of it! Great customer service, great food, and reasonable prices. Make sure you check this place out when you were at Hi Sign! read more

Pretty good food for a food truck. A step up from fast food but not getting on any Michelin lists. I had the quinoa bowl with shrimp added. The sweet potato lacked flavor and didn't seem freshly made, but everything else in the bowl was good. The dressing was legit. Can't remember what it was, but I loved it! Added the right amount and a good balance of flavor. It was a bit expensive for what you get, but I didn't feel ripped off. Just a little hungry when I finished. If you're over at Wanderlust, it's a good food option. read more

Based on the Yelp reviews I had a feeling that making a 30 min drive on a Wednesday afternoon was going to be worth it. I was right! I was doing a staycation for my vacation and my craving for Caribbean food got the best of me. So, I jumped in the car to make the trek. Upon arrival I could tell that I missed the lunch rush. Wonderful, because that means I didn't have to wait long at all. The food truck is in the parking lot with another food truck and picnic tables and covered seating near the bar building. Everything was clean and tidy. I ordered the Coconut Shrimp bowl and it was soooooooo good! The flavors in the bowl were a treat for my tastebuds. The shrimp were delicious and cooked well. It was the beans though, that caught me by surprise! They had a nice spicy kick to them and reminded me of the Cajun Red Beans & Rice dishes I've had in the past. I also ordered a side of plantains, which were prepared perfectly as well! I had to restrain myself from eating all of the plantains before leaving the lot. Once I got home, the food was still warm and it did not miss a beat by being prepared to go. Writing about it all now makes me want to make another trip. But it hasn't even been a week yet so I'll have to wait. But soon come I shall return! read more

Had the jerk chicken taco. Quite good. Good size for $5. Not very spicy at all. Cool location out beyond a beer bar. Lots of seating.

Great fast service super friendly Had the shrimp tacos and corn fritters. Sauce on tacos was delicious and shrimp cooked perfectly. The fritters were fried to a great crispness . They are at Hi Sign brewery with indoor and outdoor seatings and all kinds of drinks great ambiance- highly recommend this place. read more

I had some amazing tacos here and shared the sweet potato fries. The shrimp and shredded beef were huge and juicy, perfectly cooked and seasoned. The mango salsa on top of the shrimp taco was perfect. The sweet potato fries were huge, perfectly cooked and seasoned. My friend enjoyed her bowl. This is a perfect Caribbean cuisine to order and eat with a beer next door or take out. read more

Get the jerk wings! They aren't too spicy, they just have a tantalizing sort of smokey flavor. And the chicken itself was succulent & juicy. The order or 6 wings came with an avocado ranch that added a welcome coolness to the dish. And of course this is the perfect accompaniment to a beer from Hi Sign right nextdoor. The tacos are pretty stuffed, so worth the $5-ish pricetag, but they aren't the star in my opinion. We ordered 3: the Floridian, the Yawdy & the Yucatan. The Floridian was easily the best. The sweetness & texture of the shrimp paired well w/ mango salsa. And I always like a little fresh shredded cabbage to add crunch & freshness. The other 2 tacos were just ok. They were less flavorful and didn't have the contrast of texture that made the Floridian so enjoyable. Nyam is still worth the visit if you're in the area specifically for the wings. Plus w/ Hi Sign right next door (and a couple other bars w/ in a short walk) it's worth the visit! read more

Went to the back of Hi Sign Brewing expecting the Norte food truck but was met with this pleasant surprise instead. The truck offers El Salvadorian + Caribbean fusion food which translates to jerk chicken, curried goat (when available), slaw, rice and beans with sweet notes from the pineapple. Everything we got (tacos and a chicken bowl) was delicious! The food took about 10 minutes to come out but I suspect we were the first order of the day. Highly recommend if you're looking for a quick, quirky bite! read more

Nyam Sunshine Cuisine - Texan taco, great food truck at hi sign brewery - Food Trucks Near Me - Austin, Texas

What a cute little place with amazing Caribbean food! This is a food truck near Ani's day and night and it's a great place to hang out in general . But we mainly come here for the food from this food truck place. The curry got hits the spot every single time with enough food for two people with tender pieces of goat and veggies. Mild but super flavorful. The yuca fries are crispy but the sauce enhances the flavor and you can also ask for habanero sauce if you like spicy food like us . The plantains are so authentic with a nice sweet touch but pan fried to perfection. The tacos are great as well and we like the shrimp taco out of all as the shrimp is always cooked well and the sauce on the taco is great! Definitely recommend this place to get authentic Caribbean food ! read more

Nyam Sunshine Cuisine - Goat curry, shrimp taco, yuca fries, fried plantains - Food Trucks Near Me - Austin, Texas

Yummy and filling?? That is a five star in my book. Despite my dislike for truck food (I have this thing about no running water), truck food is almost mandatory in Austin. Austin tries so hard to be ghetto gangsta chick and remains to promote weirdness. (And truck food and ghetto chick go in h in h.) The jerk chicken plate, at $15 plus tax, has ample juicy Jamaican chicken, fried plantains, Jamaican rice, and stir fried veggies. The chicken was delicious, finger licking bone sucking delicious. I don't often get excited about chicken as there is only a few chicken places that are worthy, but this is really delicious. Complemented by the tangy taste of plantain and veggies with rice, it is a complete hearty meal for a hungry traveler or local weirdos. I'm still not a fan of truck food, but I'm an fan of Nyam. read more

*OVERALL* The food is very unique and tasty - it was my first time trying Caribbean Latino fusion food and I loved it! The jerk chicken will change your life. I am so excited to go back and try out other dishes on their menu. *PARKING* There are two free parking lots on either side of the area. The Nyam Sunshine Cuisine food truck is parked in front of the cafe, Ani's Day and Night, and there are ample picnic tables outside. Perfect for eating outdoors with large parties and also very dog-friendly. *FOOD* I got the Jerk Chicken and was very happy with my decision. The chicken was juicy and bursting with flavor, the plantains added a nice sweetness to the dish, the Jamaican rice was savory and addicting, and the sauce complemented the dish very well. If you're looking for a hearty dish that's packed with a perfect balance of different flavors, I would highly recommend this dish! read more

Really enjoyed this food truck! Stumbled upon it while at an event at Ani's Day and Night. I had the jerk chicken sandwich and a side of yuca fries. Both were great and the jerk chicken was tasty and flavorful but not overwhelmingly spicy. The yuca fries were crispy and came with a delicious sauce. Other people I was with got 1/4 jerk chicken and said it was delicious. Seems like a family run business, very friendly. Prices were affordable and fair! read more

Jerk wings - wow so flavorful and tender and the avocado ranch is amazing Yucatán taco - again so flavorful and moist chicken with delicious pineapple salsa Yucca bowl - star of the show for me. I love fried yucca. This has tender braised shredded beef over it with a slaw and pickled red onions and a sauce that was pretty damn spicy on a couple of bites - keep the water nearby but wow yum yum read more

Wow, wow, wow! This place knocked my socks off! This may be the best tasting food in Austin, period! I'm not sure if I ever rated a place 5 stars. I had the jerk chicken with rice and veggies, and plantains and, OMG, what an experience. I'm not used to such perfection in the Austin area... sorry Austinites. The chicken was moist, the skin flavorful, and cooked all the way through. The rice with pigeon peas was cooked perfectly, the veggies not under or overcooked, and the plantains were sweet... not starchy and not greasy! Nothing was over-seasoned or over-salted. The spiciness level was perfect... not too hot and not too mild... just an explosion of flavor!!! Yes, I'm a Goldie Locks kinda person... looking for perfection, and this place was just right!! Awesome food at a good price served with a smile in an extremely clean and lovely trailer park venue. What a treat! Made my day!!! read more

So good! Had the Texan taco, Jamaican chicken (big portion!), and the fritters- everything was delicious and I'd definitely order each of them again. Plantains were delicious. Was out of the goat curry when we went but hope to try it next time! read more

The food is so delicious. I can feel the love and thought that they put in their recipes and menu items. Being from Chicago and recently moving to Austin, I was having a hard time finding really good Caribbean food. I am so happy that I found them because it's good and it reminds me of home. read more

My husband and I stopped by Ani's for some coffee and breakfast tacos from a neighboring food truck. We decided to check out this bright yellow food trucks menu to see if it was something we might be interested in. I barely got through the appetizers and knew this was a MUST! We actually came back a few hours later specifically for this truck and had the most delicious dinner! The food, the service, the flavors!!! We ordered all the appetizers and some tacos, as well and let me tell you: WOW!!!! If I wasn't flying out the next day for a trip I would have come right back the very next day. The family running this truck were beyond friendly and thankful and even the bartender from inside Ani's came out and chatted with us about how incredible this food truck is. I cannot WAIT to come back to try more of their food and when I say to just get all of the appetizers and not think twice, I mean it! And the guacamole: go calypso! This, this is a little piece of sunshine ! read more

The Calypso Guacamole is normal, not so special. The Tacos are just ok, the cost is $5 each but the taste is just normal. The $3 tacos near Dallas Love Field airport have much better taste with a lot more options. Not worth the price in my opinion read more

What a gem! The food was amazing - we kept telling each other how wonderful it was as we were eating. (Jerked chicken, coconut shrimp, and corn fritters). But the site they have their trailer at was equally awesome! Plenty of benches, picnic tables, and chairs set out under huge cottonwoods, with a nice bar in the house (try the hibiscus team and prickly pear margarita) Next time we fly out of Austin, we'll be back! read more

The curry chicken was great. I love how fresh the veggies are and they not over cooked. Rice was well cooked and plantains were super tasty. This place deserves more acclaim. Compliments to the chef! read more

By FAR one of the best food trucks in ATX. Located outside a cute coffee/cocktail shop, they have a comfortable outdoor atmosphere to dine out at. Food is reasonably priced, fast service, and the jerk chicken taco is to die for. They also have vegetarian options! read more

Great food! Everything I have tried was delicious, I especially love the corn fritters

Nyam is incredible and the owners here are so nice! We brought our family to Ani's and had a very pleasant Sunday lunch. The goat curry just melted off the bone and was very flavorful. The shrimp rice dish was delicious and we loved the mango salad that accompanied it. The jerk chicken was tender and moist with the perfect savory, spiced, and honey-sweetened jerk rub. Not surprising since the owner used to be the GM at Fresa's. One of my favorite new food trucks. read more

We definitely weren't joking and we look forward to our next visit as soon as humanly possible. In a sea of food trucks in Austin we have definitely found a Caribbean gem! read more
