Being this is my initial visit, I had to go with their signature Torta Pumas loaded with everything imaginable. This sandwich is made to order and it is absolutely delicious. I also have to mention this Torta can easily feed a family of 4 and at $22, that is a bargain in New York City. Parking is very difficult around the area as this food truck is located steps from corner of 108th St. and Roosevelt Avenue. However, you get there, I promise you the trip is worth your while. Shout out to the ladies working in the truck. The time I went was so busy yet they handled all customers with a smile and energetic service. I can't wait to try the rest of the menu.

Chinelos Tacos Birria: The Unexpected Hero of My Travel Day…read more When my flight got cancelled and I found myself unexpectedly solo at the Holiday Inn Express in Woodside, I needed a pick-me-up--and maybe something cold to take the edge off. I wandered over to Key Market for a couple of beers and, on the way, spotted this glorious food truck: Chinelos Tacos Birria. With no dinner plan and no clue where else to go, I made a mental note to stop on my way back--and wow, am I glad I did. Total hidden gem! I ordered two shrimp tacos, and they were loaded--plenty of perfectly cooked shrimp, crisp lettuce, juicy tomato, queso fresco, and a touch of cilantro. My only tiny gripe? They used lemons instead of limes. But the flavorful hot sauce totally made up for it. The service? Uber friendly. Seriously, the kind of warm, welcoming energy that makes you feel like a regular even if you're just passing through. As for the ambiance--sure, it's a food truck on a city street, but it's got a cool, laid-back vibe that just works. You can feel the neighborhood rhythm all around you. If you ever find yourself grounded at the Holiday Inn Express Woodside, consider this your silver lining. Grab some beverages from Key Market or United Liquor Market (even closer to the hotel), then treat yourself to a taco truck that seriously delivers. Travel mishaps never tasted so good.

They have many options for Birria (Tortas, Quesadillas, Nachos, Tostadas, Tacos, Burritos & Bowls). I ordered a Birria Torta (Spicy Pork), wow it was delicious and flavorful. Haven't had something this good in a while. Definitely recommend. Service is quick. As it's a food truck there's no seating, so there's no ambiance unless you take your food to a local park bench to people watch our local party.

Prices are not what they use to be, but the tacos are still quite solid. My favorite is the grilled fish taco, though the fried fish and octopus tacos are good too. Their shrimp cocktail is beyond my preference for sweetness and not my thing.

Sometimes people ask how come you go to the shrimp place and get fish and I usually respond, if they didn't want me to have it, they would not put it on the menu.

I got the 2 for $7 chicken sliders and they were really big. They could be sold as regular sized sandwiches, honestly. The chicken is crispy and tender, but the sandwich overall could benefit from more flavor either through batter seasoning or sauce. I had to bring them both home where I could add my own sauce. The spaghetti is a big portion but it does have a really strong acid flavor profile. Definitely didn't anticipate this to taste like Americanized-spaghetti but this wasn't up my alley too much either.
