The security guy recommended to get the banh mi with pork. He was so right! For $10 it was delirious! I'll come back for this one. And on a nice warm day it's a cool scene to eat out here read more

The Pickled Carrot - Banh mi pork - Vietnamese Near Me - Denton, Texas

Wow. Just wow. This food is SOOOOO yummy. It was seriously 10/10 with flavor, texture, everything. We got these with pork. The service was great too. We also ordered a kids cheeseburger, and that was amazing and a great size for kids to share too. Also love that it's a food truck part of Buffalo Hirsch, so the vibes are great to sit outside and eat something fresh and yummy too. We will definitely be back. read more

Love the pickled carrot you really can't go wrong with anything on their menu. My personal favorite is the fries but I think I have tried everything on the menu and it's all good. It's a simple food truck that usually sits inside of Eastside. If you're looking for a spot with some good vibes it's always nice to sit out there and have a drink. This is also a good spot to order some late night food and chill at home with some Netflix. Either way you can't go wrong!! read more

One of a number of food trucks in a space behind a bar - there are a bunch of tables in what would otherwise be a parking lot. But this food is excellent and unique, a fusion where you can get egg rolls, a burger or a kind of Vietnamese poutine. Would definitely eat here again. read more

Delicious. Always amazing. The sandwich is an easy go to but the salad is a game changer. Love it

Visited this food truck at a bar in Denton. Initially the line didn't look long and the food sounded like the best option available. Once i got in line i was told they weren't taking orders for 10 minutes, no problem i wasn't in a hurry. After 10 minutes they put up a sign that said be back in 15 minutes. I found a nearby seat, drank beer and waited. After some time passed they finally started taking orders again. I got the egg rolls, tacos, fries, and a cheesesteak. The egg rolls were fried crispy with a nicely well balanced filling but they forgot our other order so i had to go back, 4/5. The tacos were good, soft flour tortillas and pork filling 5/5. The fries were mid, they checked the box but nothing special, 3/5. The cheesesteak had soft bread with a crunchy exterior, and delivered everything i expect from a cheesesteak 5/5. All in all it was a frustrating first impression but the food was exceptional. Given the food truck prices, it felt expensive but i think if they got some more help or made their kitchen more efficient it could be a 5 star experience. read more

Absolutely delicious! Healthy! Did I mention delicious?? The Pickled Carrot is my #1 choice when looking for something quick, delicious and healthy. read more

Please do a better job at checking your food before it goes out. I found a few peanuts in my noodle bowl And I stated no peanuts I'm allergic so I had to throw my order away. read more

Got chicken in the fries this time. Pretty weak serving of protein for what I've seen in other photos. Was still delicious with a superb flavor profile. Would still prefer more protein though. read more

Been looking for an outdoor area to enjoy the fall weather. The Austin Street food truck area is great. However, the food trucks left us underwhelmed. We ordered two bahn mis and fries. The sandwich was a little small and could have used more flavor. The fries were decent but nothing special. We were really hoping that the food would be great but it wasn't on par. I would definitely come back to the area for drinks but nothing more. read more

After reading the reviews I had to try this place, and WOW, did it live up to the reviews!!! I tried the noodle bowl with chicken and the VF fries with chicken. Let's just say..... both were demolished in minutes. The flavor was amazing, however I do wish the serving size was bigger. I'll definitely be back. read more

The service was attentive and accommodating. The ambiance would be nice at night because it located at the food truck area. I believe if you come after a certain time, you would have to be over 21 to enter that area because they serve alcohol inside the area. The food was decent, I got a pork banh mi and a pork noodle bowl. The grilled pork was the star of the show. It was soooo good! I don't like the sauce inside the banh mi because it was too sour. The fish sauce in the noodle bowl was too plain, I would like it to be more flavorful. read more

Best Food Truck near Eastside. Love just the Bahn Mi with pork. The portion size is a little small.

The service was horrible! The guy seems to only care and give good service if you give him a tip. What am I even tipping for? It's not like you're bringing the food out to me or anything. But after he noticed I didn't tip him he handed me the pager and slammed the window in my face. A couple men came after me, he told them it was going to be a long wait for their food because he just got a 15 sandwich order from online, then complained about it because he doesn't get a tip from that order. I'm assuming those guys tipped him because he said thank you, didn't slam the window in their faces and told them that they could sit at the Mexican restaurant next to food trucks to keep warm. When my food was ready, he practically threw it at me and slammed the window again. This was my first time coming to The Pickled Carrot and it will be my last. I only tried this place because Viet Bites is closed on Mondays and I wanted a Banh Mi. read more

Don't sleep on the v fries! The Pickled Carrot is reliably perfect and delicious. You can't go wrong.

DFW is good food desert, more so when it comes to asian food. It's rare to find asian food that's tasty that I'd return. Because it's DFW I'm rating this a 4-star since it's hard to find tasty asian food. I had the vermicelli with grilled pork. It's seasoned well and not salty. It's even better tasting than some Vietnamese restaurants. read more

Delicious pork tacos! Had an Asian cabbage slaw in it and were so good! Didn't take them long to prepare. Daughter preferred these over the neighboring food truck. read more

The Pickled Carrot - Pork Tacos - Vietnamese Near Me - Denton, Texas

Food was tasty but it was pricey & portion was small. This is a food truck so I don't see how their pricing is justified. I've been to other Vietnamese places with great tasting banh mi sandwiches but 35% cheaper. read more

Honestly, a spot-on vermicelli bowl in the middle of a food-truck park was unexpected but entirely welcome.

I'm from LA where some of the best bahn mi sandwiches are made, and let me tell you the pickled carrot makes an AMAZING bahn mi sandwich. If you're craving a really good pork bahn mi this is the place to go. The service is just as wonderful. I don't know the lovely girls name that helped me out the times I've been there, but she makes the food GREAT and has great service as well. read more

The pork banh mi is a solid choice to order. The loaded fries were good as well! This is located just a street over from the square and is in an area surrounded by other food trucks. So if one truck isn't your cup of tea, you've got a lot of options - Korean Mexican fusion, American...I loved the night vibe and being able to bring my pup along. It almost felt like I wasn't in Denton anymore, rather in Austin! read more

Good veggie options. I love a tofu Banh Mi!! A little on the dry side but still really good.

Delicious!! We ordered the v fries and Banh mi. If you order anything be sure to get the fries!!! They were our favorite by far. We spilt one but next time since we enjoyed them so much we will both get our own. The fries were coated to yummy, creamy sauce with lots of garnishes. The Banh mi pork sandwich was also good! The meat was the main attraction and did not disappoint. I will probably have this order again the next time I visit. read more

The Pickled Carrot - V fries! An absolute must. - Vietnamese Near Me - Denton, Texas

By far one of our favorite meals in Denton, and possibly on earth! We stopped in at the location within Harvest House. We tried out the Original Banh Mi sandwich, tacos, and egg rolls. We go back and forth between the pork and chicken, but definitely prefer the pork for a first experience. Wonderful flavors with just the right amount of spice. The tacos are a little easier to eat and are easier to portion control, but the classic sandwich is to die for. The egg rolls as a side are a must - always super hot, crispy, and fresh. Can't say enough good things about Pickled Carrot- They even catered our engagement party! read more

I'm a fan of the Pickled Carrot. I've never intentionally sought them out, but I've eaten a couple selections whenever I am at Eastside or Harvest House. I believe they are almost always at Eastside, and the have a permanent location at Harvest House. It's nice to have something fresh to eat as opposed to the more fried fair. I like that I can get some tasty tofu, and they offer it here. The Baan mi is very good as well as the noodle bowl. The people working are generally pretty nice, sometimes the wait for food is a little over ten minutes but I'm used to waiting at food trucks. It's also not as over priced as some trucks can tend to be. I think I would say if you are at one of these two bars defiantly check it out. It's also fun to go to on a hot summer day. read more

The Pickled Carrot - Tofu noodle bowl - Vietnamese Near Me - Denton, Texas

On my first visit, I was recommended the pork banh mi. It was good, but the bread overpowered the filling. I gave it another try tonight, and got the tacos with pork this time. Believe me when I say it was the BEST fusion taco I've ever had in my entire life. A little sweet, a little tangy, slightly spicy, and fresh! I'll be stopping by this place often for the tacos! I might try the spring rolls too. Awesome place! read more

Costumer service was absolutely horrible. Red head called me a bitch after being rude slamming the window on me and 3 other Costumers face for being at the pick up window. Absolutely unprofessional for no reason. read more

It's a food truck in a nice outdoor seating lot with a few other trucks. I got the Banh mi and it was delicious! Quick service and you can use card! read more

So yummy!! Hubby and I shared a chicken banh mi, a pork banh mi, and v-fries. Every single bite was delicious. I definitely recommend this food truck! read more

We had chicken street tacos and pork egg rolls. This food was hot, fresh, and so delicious. This was our first visit, and we'll definitely be back. read more

By far, this is my favorite food truck in Denton. The grilled pork banh mi is the only sandwich worth eating, full of fresh veggies and the unique BBQ style of grilled pork. The pork is also good in the cold noodle salad or get tofu if you're not craving some meat! They recently started making pho and so conveniently parked, at times, outside of East Side so you can walk over and within 15 minutes have your food in hand to walk back! The pho is beef and by the time you get back in, the rare steak is cooked properly. The broth is good too! Just ask for light noodles or the noodles soak up all the delicious broth. It comes with the proper additions of bean sprouts, Vietnamese basil, cilantro & jalapenos. So good! Thanks for offering a healthier alternative to the Austin Street Truck Stop! Keep on doing what you do PC and creating those raving fans of good Vietnamese food :) read more

The Pickled Carrot - At Eastside's 1 year anniversary :) - Vietnamese Near Me - Denton, Texas

Found this place in a good truck park in Denton. We ordered the V fried s and tacos with chicken. A little pricey for what is it, I honestly wouldn't pay more than $5 for a Bahn Mi, I could get one with grilled beef for less than what they charge for one basic sandwich, but it was like eating a deconstructed bahn mi sandwich in taco and frenchfry form. A lot of flavor and textures which made it interesting. Be prepared for a wait! We went on a Saturday evening and waited about 40 minutes for Two dishes, so don't go order something if you're feeling hangry. Bonus points for making it fresh though. We are always willing to support small and local businesses! read more

Pulled up to East Side today to meet up with some buddies to watch the Stars game (FYI go stars Game 7 W) & I was starving. The Pickled Carrot was parked out back. I don't think I've ever had Vietnamese food before but decided to give it a shot. I had just watched "Buzzfeeds Worth It" they did a review on Banh Mi sandwiches so I decided to give the chicken one a shot. It was delicious & super fresh! Only negative I had was on the ingredient to bread ratio there was too much bread. I also got the Pork V-Fries & they were awesome, even better than the sandwich. Now I want to try even more Vietnamese foods & would love to try more from The Pickled Carrot. read more

The Pickled Carrot - Banh Mi Sandwich - Vietnamese Near Me - Denton, Texas

The food here is consistently the best. I've been a customer for years, and I'm still all about the tofu banh mi and v-fries!

Delicious banh mi from a Denton food truck -- wow!! We LOVE Vietnamese food (and we are from Garland) so we eat it often. The banh mi here are perfectly balanced and delicious - we loved the citrus tang and sweet contrast in the sandwich from the daikon and carrots. We missed cilantro, but not enough to sing anybody a star. The meat was so flavorful we can happily do without :) The bread was ON POINT -- crisp on the outside, perfectly fresh and tender on the inside. We would definitely come back here when we get a banh mi craving - (pretty often for us). The ONLY thing we wish was on offer here is an option to get a fried egg on the banh mi - once you try it, you will never go back to "plain" banh mi. 5 delicious stars read more

I love their egg rolls! They're fairly priced and taste great. I've had their banh mi and they're pretty tasty. Almost every time I'm out and smell their food it makes me crave it - and I *usually* give in. I'm not veg, but i like that they have a tofu option because some days I just like to go without meat. The service is great also! Really the perfect stop when you're out at Harvest House or around Austin St. read more

If I'm at East Side, this is the only food truck for me. Obsessed with the eggplant fries

I tried the V-Fries with pork as a pit-stop in a late night roadtrip down to Austin. I love any variation of loaded fries and these Banh Mi-styled ones did not disappoint! Also appreciate that the truck stays open so late, as my food options at this time of day were limited. read more

The pork banh mi is delicious but a bit overpriced. The wait is usually quite long so be prepared. I've usually had a good experience here however at my last visit one of their workers was sitting in a chair next to the food truck high on drugs and nodding off so it was pretty uncomfortable to be around. read more
