    Fried Pork Bites w/yucca fries, pickles onions, jalapeños, homemade slaw, Honduran cheese
    Will R.

    One of the better food trucks I've eaten from in the state. This truck produces great authentic cuisine with the best and most fresh ingredients. I've never had yucca in my life but decided for them. Completely blew it out of the park with how crispy the outside was and fluffy the inside of the yucca fry. Topped with fried pork bites....absolutely amazing. The carne asada loaded fries were full of flavor and some of the best guacamole I've had with it. The owners were very nice and couldn't have been more satisfied with the food.

    Menu. Tacos, enchiladas, baleadas, carne asada fries, taquitos.

    Great food, reasonable prices, and attentive service. The chips were hot, crispy, and fresh. I had one chicken and one cheese papusa.

    **This review is 3.5 stars but since we are unable to do half stars, I will give it 3.**…read more Ordered 3 tacos, 2 to 3 tacos is enough for one per depending on how hungry you are. I chose an Al Pastor, Asada and Chorizo taco and ordered these all the way. For $2/taco you get your choice of meat with onions and cilantro For $2.50/taco you get it all the way which is your choice of meat with lettuce, tomatoes, cheese, sour cream and avocado Unfortunately the pork and steak were very dry which is the driving factor behind my 3 star review. The Chorizo taco had great flavor though. I would definitely like to give this food truck another shot!

I was always curious as…read moreto why there seemed to be a food truck at my apartment complex and finally had the chance to check them out tonight. The food is so delicious! I literally just finished my Al Pastor quesadilla and had to write a review! The Al Pastor is marinated pork and I was a bit skeptical to have it in a quesadilla but I was told its good so I decided why not? SO glad I got it! Not only is the pork tasty and juicy, there's so much of it! I loved that they did not hold back on their portions and after just one quesadilla (at $5) I'm satisfied. It came with a side of spinach, tomatoes, avocados (no extra charge yay!!) and topped with some cheese and cream. Really good stuff! Great customer service! They were really nice and friendly even though I was awkwardly staring at their menu for awhile. They had a variety of meats to choose from and had other options which I'll have to try next time. It was super quick service as well! The only downside is that they didn't have seating available but considering it's cold, I was okay with taking it home. Definitely recommending this food truck to everyone! Great food, great price and quick service? Can't get better than that with me! Side note: they are at Berkshire Manor West (off 54) every Tuesday night!

    This food truck used to be perfect 10 years ago, I went back and the service is ass and then the…read moreprices I looked at the dude like no way are you for real? I said whatever let's try it. I tried it and I was so pissed I was ready to go back and argue and fight because it's criminal they charge this and give you the worst food ever. I'm Mexican I have 25 years experience in the kitchen and I'm talking authentic cuisine from Italian to Asian and American but I also have worked with Mexican cuisine and mainly tacos and carnes. The Al pastor tacos aren't marinated right I threw up after one bite and immediately threw it out I realized it was not fully cooked correctly and they used cow skin bits to pass them off as Al pastor tacos which is wrong. The steak tacos are very full of nerves and chewy as heck the chicken is just dry like all the other foods and I don't think they marinate their food or refrigerate it. I seriously em debating whether to report them to health and safety for food they are bad I hope no one goes there anymore and if you do just know if you feel sick or nausea that it's more then likely from them or even food poisoning. I don't even want to give a star. It's so sad taco trucks aren't the same anymore, the Michoacán taco truck down the street next to cliffs meat market if you go just know that their restaurant in Durham failed with flying colors their inspection and dorm refrigerator their food correctly although I admit it's good and taste better and the price ain't bad I do warn you that that truck will charge your card multiple times and steal money I had that issue

I can't even tell you about how awesome their food is without it flashing in front of my eyes. Must. Have. Taco de lengua.... PS: I was just there and got more info: They are at the Fitch Lumber's parking lot Thursday to Sunday, from 6PM to 12AM. They are called Lating something, but they do not have any signs on the cart itself. They could be called whatever they want, they are so good they don't even need a name!!!
