So wow - after all the build up I feel bad giving this truck a 3! But please understand, a 3 is…read moreA-OK! I liked it, I just didn't love it. The food is high quality - often locally sourced and organic. Dahl soup was tasty, with just a hint of heat from the spice. Chicken taco filling was tasty but... and I think this is where I'm struggling... I am realizing that I really don't like soft tacos. Something about the texture of the taco itself puts me off. I'm sitting here trying to decide if I'm being fair giving them a three because of my preference for taco shells. I guess what I'm saying is: take my review with a (proverbial) grain of salt. Would love to see a garbage can and recycling bin put out. Since they are located on the UOttawa campus during school year, plan to bus/walk to get there. (Parking is a pain during the week.) If you get off at Campus Station 2B, Sweetpea (the truck) is really close by. (Don't take my word for it though - things change, so make sure you check on that.) Staff was great. They have 2 tables and about 6 chairs for people who want to sit and eat for a bit. Would I return: Yes. I'd love to go again when it's not Taco Thursday, to try to get a different menu item. Would I recommend: Yup - if you like healthy choices that are locally sourced and organic, this is a great option.

Absolutely fantastic - both the slaw and the fries. Service was cheerful, love their truck (which I guess passes for great décor in the food truck world) and the location is perfect, with a park just steps away and lots of suitable srocks to sit on. We got there just before noon - and just before 'the rush' - at one point, I think there were about 20 people in line. Would I return: Yes Woudl I recommend: Yes - particularly if the weather is great and you just want to soak it up.

Summary: Tasty food, but I found it overpriced for what you get…read more While in the neighbourhood this week, I decided to try Red Roasters since it is one of the food trucks on Bank that opened up last year. I've tried the Urban Cowboy food truck down the street and quite liked what I had so I thought I'd give Red Roasters a try. FOOD I ordered the chicken sandwich for myself and a pair of their pulled pork tacos for a friend. I have to say I liked the chicken sandwich, though their choice of bun isn't one I would make (a bit to plain and boring). My friend found the tacos tasty as well. The portions are on the smaller side. Their menu is rather limited. They have their chicken sandwich, their tacos, a salad, and sweet potatoe fries. They also had a daily special. That's it, that's all. COST/VALUE And this is my main issue with Red Roasters (which my friend agreed with). At $9 for a main and $6 for sweet potatoe fries (which I didn't try), that too me is about $2-$3 too much for what you get. (If you order a combo, you get the main, the fries, and a drink for $15). This, unfortunately, is a common occurrence with a lot of the new food trucks that opened up last year (Red Roasters isn't the only one). I guess time will tell if selling items at this price is a good decision or not. LOCATION/PARKING Their location on Bank is such that you should be able to find parking on a side street nearby if arriving by car. SEATING There isn't any seating at the food truck but it is on a part of Bank that is less occupied so finding a spot on the sidewalk to eat shouldn't be a problem. WOULD I GO BACK? I liked what I had but I wouldn't go back.

Went to this food truck on a Tuesday and grabbed some tacos. I had the beef taco and was pretty…read morehappy with it. It comes with 2 tacos and a side of salad. The salad was very fresh tasting and helped cut the richness of the beef. I would have preferred more meat in the tacos though, especially at the price point! Overall still pretty good and filling for a lunch meal.

My husband and I gave this place a try at the Ottawa Taco Fest at the Shaw Centre. We got there…read moreearly, so there was no line. The service was quick and the employees were friendly. I ordered a steak taco. We had created a ranking system for the festival to make it fun and to help keep track of the taco places. We gave it a 3/3 for visual presentation 2/3 taste (it was great, but could have used a little more kick), and 3/3 likelihood of return. I really liked that the hard taco shell they used didn't fall apart upon biting into it. It was a little pricey at $5 for a taster amount, but was on par with all of the other other vendors. Of all the vendors we tried, this was one of the best tacos available.

T&D Chips is a food truck that has been around for well over a decade. In my youth, I loved chip…read morewagons, but as I got older, they lost their appeal. I got to experience T&D Chips for the first time recently by happenstance. I only ate a few fries, but they were good typical chip wagon fries. My husband and I were walking around Centretown and getting hungry. We planned to have a snack at King's Wrap, but they do this unusual thing where they close between 3:30pm and 5pm and guess what time it was? Yes, during the time they are closed. So my backup plan was Yi Ryo. The wait for my food at Yi Ryo was apparently too long for my hangry husband who was waiting outside, so he marched on down to Lisgar and Bank Streets and grabbed some fries at T&D Chips. So when I stepped out of Yi Ryo, I saw my husband standing on the street, voraciously eating fries out of a paper bag, lol. Being a good Yelper, I stopped him for a picture of the fries and sampled some, haha. So he told me they were $5 and the food truck only accepts cash. They were hot and crispy and slightly sweet. I liked that they weren't mealy. He told me it was a medium, but the bag looked pretty small to me. However, given places like Clocktower charge $12 for an order of fries (yup, for real, I couldn't believe it and further couldn't believe that my husband actually bought them once, and they weren't even good, but that's another story) I guess $5 is a deal these days. And the fries at T&D chips were actually good. Anyway that's my story about T&D Chips, lol.

Kinda feels like a semi-permanent establishment. Smash Daddy Burger - A double patty of flattened beef was delicious. It was a melange of flavours that worked very well. I wish the patty was more crispy so that there is more texture in the patty. Naked Fries - The spiced fries were one of the best fries I've had. Fries were super crispy with fluffy interior. There was a good amount of seasoning on the fries making it tasty in flavour and texture. Would come back just for this!

The fries are nice and crispy/crunchy and come seasoned. Very friendly staff/owner? Serves food to the small patio area, and checks in with patrons on how they find the food. I would come back again.

Inside the establishment is smaller than I'd expect with a couple of tables tightly knit together. Expect close seating and small tables. They also get busy, but take reservations. Asada fries - Lots of fries, crispy and loaded with toppings. The veggies, pico de gallo and salsa all come together nicely to balance out the cheese and fries. There was so much toppings that the last fries were eaten before the toppings were finished off. Taco de Carnitas - Proteins felt a bit dry and lacked sauce to back up to dryness. Big portion, but for $8.... its a bit steep. would not recommend. Taco de Carne Asada - A good portion for a single taco, but as with the other taco $8 is a bit too much for just one. This time proteins was more juicy and you get a hint for carmalization from the charred meat. Tacos not worth. Would come back for Asada fries but add protein. WIll try the wings (they look stacked) and maybe a torta.

I've been a loyal follower of the Torta Boyz since they first opened up as a food truck and have…read morealways been impressed and satisfied by their food. Their brick and mortar home serves the same classics that they had at the truck and then some. Their menu has expanded to include some appetizers, tacos and cocktails. The prices have gone up but worth the money since it's probably the best mexican food in Ottawa. The fish tacos we got were made fresh and dressed with plenty of fresh, sour, creamy pairings. The Asada Fries are as good as ever. A mountain of guac and dressings and super crispy fries. Got the pastor torta this time around--this was the only thing I thought could use a bit more acidity since the meat was generous but a bit heavy. The tuna tostada is my new favourite. it was fresh, bright, spicy and as always, all the textures. Service is lovely.
