I enjoy getting either the platillo asada or the huaraches for my main dish. I also love the elote cups for a snack or a side dish. The staff are very nice here and promptly take your order.

I ordered the Meat Sweats platter with the garlic and green onion sausage and a small order of…read morebananamisu, and everything was delicious as usual. I have been here several times to pick up food, but this was my first time actually going inside to order. The line was long around lunchtime, but it moved quickly. It is fast casual style, so you walk down the line choosing what you want and then pay at the register. I honestly had no idea that was how it worked before, so I was prepared to wait a while. I was pleasantly surprised at how efficient everything was. I was in and out much faster than expected. While putting my order together, the man helping me handed me a sample rib over the counter. I am a very socially awkward person and do not handle unexpected moments very gracefully, so I probably reacted a little awkwardly. That part was on me. The rib was GOOD though. He was very kind about my reaction and even handed me a napkin. The whole staff was friendly, asking how my week was going and checking in to make sure everyone was happy. Even though it was busy, they clearly care about customer service. The food was great. The garlic and green onion sausage had so much flavor, and the bananamisu was the perfect sweet finish. I originally went in hoping to order the BBQ oxtail, but they were sold out within two hours of opening, which honestly says a lot about how good they must be. I had also gone the day before around 7 PM and they had already closed because they were sold out for the day. Just a heads up that they do close early if they run out of food. Overall, great food, friendly staff, and quick service. I will definitely be back and hopefully I will finally catch the oxtail next time.

It was my first time at Makers Craft so idk if they're the resident food truck or if there are different food trucks everyday. Regardless, get them while you can! I got the wings and fries combo and they were super good! The fries were really addicting and the wings tasted great, super tender, not dry at all and had a lot of taste! 10/10 would recommend. Just be warned that they were really popular when I had them. Line went fast to order but the wait after was about 35-40 minutes. Super worth it though as they're made from scratch!

Perfectly grilled bread, the Mac n cheese was creamy and absolutely covered in cheese - this is not a lightweight option but well worth sharing with a friend!

The service was quick and the food delicious, highly recommend them and can't wait to try one of their other sammies!

Finally got a chance to try out this food truck at Tradition Brewery, and on National Grilled…read moreCheese Day of all days! I was super excited about the menu, I had trouble deciding on what to get. When we got to the brewery, there was no line out front. My boyfriend and I ordered the Buffalo Wing grilled cheese, The Mac Daddy, and the fried mac and cheese balls. They didn't have the bacon mac and cheese balls, which was a bummer. I liked that they gave us a number stand to put on our tables and they brought the food to us. That's where the good stops. The fried mac and cheese balls were a HUGE let down. The breading had a weird texture to it, the mac and cheese inside was pretty dry, and definitely needed some more cheese. It didn't have much flavor to it at all. It was disappointing. The sandwiches were very average too. I ate the buffalo wing sandwich. The chicken wasn't bad, but it was just doused with some hot sauce. I love a grilled cheese with a massive amount of cheese, but with the hot sauce everything became a gloopy, greasy mess. It was hard to eat and everything kept sliding out. I never thought I would say this about a grilled cheese, but they probably could have done with not trying to stuff it with as much cheese and grease. I had to end up eating most of it with a fork. The loaded cheese fries with pulled pork did look really good! I wouldn't go out of my way to come to this place. If it was at another brewery the same time I was, I would definitely try the fries next time, but skip everything else. It's honestly not worth the calories.

So, this is a preliminary review based on my experience at today's inaugural food truck rally here…read morein the Hampton Roads. For this, I'll be departing from my normal style of writing to write an educated and informal post in hopes that the truckers will read this and make amends for the next gathering. Before the actual review, I'd like to thank WHRO for graciously hosting the event. Onto the business end of the stick... I showed up at 1:40PM, an hour and forty minutes after the event started. When I got there I went in what appeared to be the shortest line, which was for Norfolk Ramen (NR). In line I asked the person in front of me how long they had been waiting and they said for 15 minutes so far and that there was a second line to wait in to get your food. Still I waited, and waited, and waited. 25 minutes later I heard that NR ran out of the item I was interested in. No bueno mi compadre. I decided to go for another line; this time it was Stuft. A friend of mine who had already gotten food from them said the wait was only around 35 min and the tacos were pretty decent. 25 minutes into this wait Stuft called the line off and said they had ran out of food. ¡Que verracos pasa! At this point I was pissed, so I left. I not only worked in the gourmet food truck circles, but have also visited the various circles across the country. My experience was horrible and I know that I am not alone because the two girls that were behind me also left the NR line to go to the line for Stuft. This is unacceptable. What it is reflective of is very poor preparation. Did anyone think to call the plethora of great trucks from the food truck rallies/farmers markets from around the country for expertise? Not only have they been doing this for a while, handle greater volume, have more expansive menus, and do it all with wait times in the range of 5 to 10 minutes. I already know the answer to the question is no. There are a lot of people kissing your collective arses at the moment, because the majority of them do not know any better which is a shame in itself. Excuses like you didn't know people were going to show, it's hard working in those trucks, etc. You saw the RSVPs on FB, you new of the collective noise in the HR area via the various media/online outlets, and it's cramped but there benefits to working in the truck as well. So, I guess I will be the critic in the crowd and call for results. If you want to successfully join the culinary movement sweeping across the States, then simply do better. Have enough food for the crowds, have enough staff to assist, and do the prep work necessary to punch down wait times. Why this isn't a one star review is because of the location (good), the idea (also good), and from what I saw of the food (it looked good). Suggestions for the venue organizers... Maybe have an on-site portable ATM and invite a craft beer truck. I'll update this review after attending the next rally.

We were so full yet wanted to try the Chicken Skewers and our daughter loved it. If you like spicy, the jeow dipping sauce is a must! It creeps up and has a nice burn. Got the sausage meal to go for a friend as well. Will definitely be back! We want to try the bowls and more pork belly!

If you're looking for a lobster roll, and you're in the area and willing to drop 30 bucks, this is a good choice.

We stopped by La Isla Del Encanto after seeing it on TikTok and decided to give it a try -- and…read moreoverall, we're glad we did! We ordered a little bit of everything: the pinchos de cerdo, alcapurrias, pastelillos de carne y de pollo, and chicharrones de pollo. The pinchos were flavorful and cooked just right, and the alcapurrias had that crispy outside with a soft, seasoned filling that really hit the spot. The pastelillos were fresh and tasty too -- perfect if you're craving something savory and handheld. The chicharrones de pollo were good, but they came with arroz con bacon, which wasn't really our favorite. We probably would've preferred rice and beans or rice with gandules for more of that traditional flavor. It was still decent, just not our top choice. We also tried the fries with cheese and bacon -- they were okay, but again, not our favorite thing on the menu. What really stood out though was the service. The guy at the window was very polite, attentive, and super respectful. That kind of customer service makes a difference and definitely leaves a good impression. Overall, solid spot if you're craving Puerto Rican bites. We'd definitely recommend stopping by and trying it for yourself!
