Build-Your-Mac with Smoked Chicken
Mariah K.

My husband and I came to tour a place in this area and thought we should grab some food that would suit having the dogs with us. We are food cart fans, and even bigger Mac n' Cheese fans, so, we saw this place on Google and it was no question! Customer service was awesome - we arrived right at 11 opening time, they were happy to answer my questions about products and super friendly, and that sweet charm you like that makes you feel welcome and familiar. It's sat in the parking lot of the gas station so it was easy to get a parking spot and we grabbed some gatorades in the station. My husband and I did the build your own macs and both got 2lb portions (for leftovers, and there will definitely be some!) and I chose the Fried Thigh (it is boneless) and he got smoked chicken. The Fried Thigh was moist and flavorful all on its own and tastes incredible. If we're eating at home with a knife that would make it slightly easier but being so moist and well cooked made it easier for me to just shred the size bites I want. The Smoked Chicken was very Smokey and tasted very good, and soft! The Mac itself is MOIST. Noodles cooked to perfection without being overly cooked. I, personally, can't stand a soggy noodle. Props to them for mastering firm noodles that can handle all that yummy sauce! The sauce is a 5 cheese blend they said, and it was seasoned to the max. I was so, so impressed. We only drove down the road to a park but I can promise you this mac would travel well because the sauce is creamy. You know when you get a Mac and it just turns into a coagulated brick? Yeah, not this. This is AMAZING. I cannot say enough good words about our meals as someone who moved here to the PNW from the south with some of the best food and real seasoning, I feel I'm missing something often times here. The Mac is going to be a consistent stop for us now, and worth driving from Vancouver!! Thank you guys! Keep up what you're doing!

First time ordering food at The Mac was great! The Service was amazing, the owner recommended me the 9pc wings with Mac! Man! The Mac was so cheesy and creamy and them wings!!! Crunchy and flavorful! I highly recommend this joint!

1/4 smoked chicken combo with mac & drink. Added a side of popcorn chicken.
Kyleigh P.

Finally stopped here after driving past every day! The online order ahead is very easy to navigate. Service was great, amazing flavors and the chicken was smoked to perfection. Support local & eat here!

Had the Bacon Mac and it was so good!
Sara Y.

Tried the Mac and even through it was a little pricy, it was really good! My son had the chicken sandwich and it was a huge piece of meat. My husband ordered a double burger plain and it was outstanding and impressive. I ordered the Mac with bacon and I intended to only eat half but I couldn't stop. It was creamy and super good. We will definitely have it again! There isn't any outdoor seating so we ate in our car. The employees also were kind enough to bring the food out to the car since it was a 15 minute wait, which was nice.

Popcorn chicken with honey garlic sauce
Dan M.

Brought the family by to pick up some takeout for lunch and we were not disappointed. The food was delicious and the portions were substantial. The popcorn chicken was super crunchy but most and perfectly balanced. The Mac was as good as it gets in my opinion. We collectively ate only about half of the food and we were all stuffed. The guys working were super friendly... good vibes all around.Highly recommend!!!

Mac with lobster tails
Evelyn S.

It looks better than it tastes. I wouldn't mind the expense if it tasted as good as it looked. The person working the cart was difficult and disinterested in helping me until I added lobster tails. Then it was like a switch went on and he was suddenly nice. Nice idea, nice presentation, but missed out on flavor.

Loaded bacon fries, honey sriracha wings, smoked chicken jalapeño mac

You must try out the Mac! Guy who runs the truck rocks and the food would be my death row meal if it came down to it!!!

the menu of the food truck
Anthony A.

I decided to give them a try since I drive past so often. There is always someone there byung so I figured the all those people couldn't be wrong. I was right!! The chicken was some of the best smoked chicken I have ever had in my life. The smoke flavor was deep. into the meat! Every bite tasted as good as the first. It's takes great skill to smoke low and slow, and especially on a fire. These guys rocked it! The macaroni was smoked and flavory. I think the macaroni had some gouda cheese in it with other cheeses. I'm not 100% sure. It was in the top 5 macs I've had in my life. These guys are doing wonders with their smoker! I vote give them a try!

1lb serving of Mac N' Cheese with popcorn chicken, jalapeños, and panko bread crumbs as toppings
Josiah L.

So I'm just here to say that the Mac n' cheese here is life changing lol, the popcorn chicken was perfectly crispy, juicy, a perfect complement to the creamy mac (with bread crumbs and jalapeños). Yep, I can't ever go back to eating mediocre Mac n cheese this was way too good (and the portion size is humongous)! It's a bit pricey, but like anything in life you get what you pay for and damn this was totally worth it!!!!! Also the employee working at the food truck was very friendly and genial! Will come back again and bring family/friends.

The OG mac with bacon and a fried egg. You're welcome
Catherine L.

I trekked here on Juneteenth as an attempt to support a Black business. I was so happy that I did! Although the wait was quite long, I imagine me going right at dinner time and on Juneteenth when others may have been thinking the same thing as I might have impacted the wait time. I don't know enough to speak on regular wait times. Let me speak on what I can speak on though, and that is the fact that this was one of the best Mac & cheese I've had in my three decades on this earth. Highly recommend the OG mac with bacon and fried egg as extras. Shout out to whoever's review had suggested this. The combination of whatever cheeses they used were very flavorful. I had hoped to try the smoked chicken and spuds, unfortunately they were sold out. The fried chicken was however a good alternative- moist on the inside, crispy on the outside. Would definitely come again to try the rest of the menu.

Three thighs. OG Mac and Cheese and Ruby red squirt.
Scott H.

So apparently the sliders are out which was my favorite part. However 99 traffic has reenergized my love of the fried chicken thighs. Every other time I get them I'm in a hurry so they are flaking hot. However this time after a good 30 minute rest home they were perfect. Hard for me to turn these down

Food
Finn W.

Superb Mac and cheese and great smoked chicken combined with it. My only complaint is there is no seating whatsoever so if you don't have a car you're kinda screwed. The employee was super nice and welcoming. Great place I will be returning to try the other items/house made lemonade.

OG Mac and Cheese with popcorn chicken. Side of Buffalo sauce.
Karen O.

It's black-owned restaurant week, so I ordered online and headed over. The Mac and cheese features smoked Gouda, Parmesan, and sharp cheddar. You can order it with something like 27 additions--I chose popcorn chicken. The chicken was crispy and perfectly cooked. I added Buffalo sauce (ordered on the side) as I ate it--a little on the Mac and a little on the chicken! The portions were HUGE and I am stuffed--with plenty leftover for another meal or two. I ordered online and my food was ready as promised (and exactly as requested). It was well-packaged and the friendly guy there provided napkins and a fork. I'll be back!

Can Hapa Howie move into your food cart pod?

When we went earlier this evening, no employees were seen wearing masks. Is this a typical practice?

They didn't have masks on when I went today. They were very rude too.

This Mexican food truck offers lots of menu options, and everything we ordered was…read moredelicious--including the aguas frescas, which were super refreshing. Our food came exactly as pictured, which is always a good sign. (Kinda nervous with only 3 reviews) The truck itself has a covered area for some shade, making it a comfortable spot to eat. A couple of suggestions: I'd recommend adding clear pricing on the menu--wasn't sure if it was missing or just hadn't been updated, since some old pictures online showed prices I went with that. Located near Michael's craft store, in the parking lot of a cabinet shop. Plenty of parking available, but no bathrooms. Great service! The lady inside was very patient with us (we had a kiddo with us who had the quesadilla), and she would change her mind often.

I honestly cannot believe there are 2 5* reviews ahead of me here. This is by FAR the worst…read moreMexican food I've had in the Portland/Beaverton area, and frankly it isn't close. They had a special on UberEats going for a BOGO enchilada plate, and a BOGO quesadilla. So I ordered 2 ground beef enchilada plates and 2 chicken quesadillas. The chicken quesadillas were... fine. It's pretty tough to mess up a quesadilla, and so I guess I can give them that much credit. But the quesadillas came with guacamole - and it was runny and tasteless. I've never had guacamole this runny. It was disgusting. It should be ashamed to call itself guacamole. Then the enchilada plates. I didn't even receive ground beef. I got carne asada. And the carne asada inside these enchiladas were gristly and chewy and gross. On top of that, the enchiladas themselves were drier than the Sahara. Might as well eat a sock. The rice was also mediocre. The beans were actually pretty decent. All in all, this place is just bad. Seriously bad. I feel like a sucker to have actually spent money on this slop. I would never eat here again. I wouldn't even eat here if someone treated me. I wouldn't even eat here if I was paid money to do so. Stay away.

I wanted pizza. He wanted a burrito. He had mentioned wanting to try this food truck so I looked it up on Yelp (obviously!) And got the address. We pulled up and there was one person ahead of him so I figured it would take a while. He got a Carne Asada Burrito. He got two different salsas a red and a green and he got a side of pickled veggies. Which were jalapenos, carrots and onions. He got his order super fast and I said that's a small burrito lol but it was just the side of pickled veggies. But when we got home he said WHOA this burrito is huge!!! He couldn't eat it all in one sitting. He ate the green sauce and said it was one of the best hot sauces he'd ever had. I licked the lid and he wasn't wrong. The flavor was so rich and there was heat but it wasn't overwhelming the flavor. Very very good. He didn't try the red sauce so I didn't get to try it. The pickled vegetables though. OM*G they are THE BEST I've ever tasted. Such good acidity and flavorful as *^%# YES this stuff was amazing. He said next time he's going to pack the box full of them lol. Frankly I'd go there JUST for those veggies and hot sauce. He said 5 stars GREAT value and great flavor. So we will absolutely be back!!! Oh and next time (sorry y'all) I'll get pictures!!!

I love the options they have and the food came out fast, and the portion sizes were good. They also don't skimp on meat which is nice. I will say that this is very greasy food, I'm not complaining, I certainly didn't sign up for health food but I figure its worth mentioning. Overall I'm giving it 4 stars primarily for the service. I don't know if the guy was in a bad mood or something but he seemed standoffish and it wasn't a great experience.
