    Buffalo Cauliflower and Cilantro Lime Shrimp Tacos
    Jordan B.

    This food truck is great! The food is top notch and always fresh! Their menu has a variety of options that can work for everyone and all types of diets - tacos, sliders, nachos, etc. They are located at various breweries, so the foods go perfect with beer/drinks! They are always very helpful in making food choices. They also accept cash and card, which is super convenient nowadays! If you see them at a brewery near you, try them out!

    Portion sizes are small for the price. Food takes 15 minutes to come out. We tried the Chipotle chicken quesadilla, pork carnitas quesadilla, and chips and salsa. Each quesadilla is $7.50 for three triangles and a side of sou. The chipotle chicken was better than the pork carnitas. Chips and salsa were ok. They ran out of their usual salsa so they substituted with a green salsa.

    Pictured: - BBQ Beef Brisket w Chipotle Slaw (7/10) - Chipotle Chicken Quesadilla (6.5/10) Likes: - Great flavor on the bbq and very very tender. - Good value and unique flavors combos! Dislikes: - The BBQ Taco was spicy, and I'm not too sure about spicy barbecue. - The quesadilla needed some sauce on the inside, it was a little dry. Also had a few too many tomatoes! Always great to try an OG food truck, and I would definitely like to try a couple more things from Tin Kitchen! For now, the truck earns a 3.4 star rating because the food is great for a food truck, but could be better!

    Cilantro lime shrimp and buffalo cauliflower tacos
    Saniqua P.

    Tin Kitchen is a food truck that I have repeatedly seen at breweries (Noda and Sycamore, just to name a few) but never felt compelled to try. That all ended one Sunday Funday when I found myself hungry and perched at Sycamore. Since they were conveniently located on site, I decided it would be as good as any time to finally try them. I placed my order for the buffalo cauliflower and lime shrimp tacos. I was then shocked when I heard my name called about two minutes later letting me know it was ready. I raced back to my seat and dove into the cauliflower taco. I was underwhelmed. All I could taste was buffalo sauce (that tasted like some of the mediocre bottled stuff) and nothing else. Maybe if they consider roasting the cauliflower beforehand, it would enhance the taste. The bleu cheese crumbles added absolutely nothing. I would suggest they make those thicker pieces. The cilantro-lime shrimp tacos were okay. I found the cilantro lime aioli to be watery and lacking real flavor. Nothing memorable about these at all. I think there definitely needs to be something with more of a substantial crunch on these tacos. Tin Kitchen regularly pops up in my business park so I figured I would give them another shot. I ordered a chicken tinga taco and, just like last time, my taco was ready in a flash. I definitely enjoyed this one the most, so far, of the three I have tried. Flavors were much more pronounced, with juicy chicken and a sauce with just the right amount of spice. Tacos are priced at $3.50 each and they are on the smaller side. In addition, they sell quesadillas, nachos, salads, and sliders. They normally have specials of the day. Personally, I do not feel inclined to try anything other than the tacos but I've heard the Korean BBQ sliders are pretty good so maybe on another day I see them around, I'll give those a shot. They keep their core menu pretty much the same so I can see myself trying out the remaining four taco flavors just to see if I end up liking any others.

    Quesadilla with chicken, sriracha glazed honey (special of the night) and a chicken tinga taco

    Food trucks and tacos, enough said. I'm a huge fan of food trucks and I'm always happy to see Tin Kitchen at the foot truck Friday events. Who doesn't love tacos right? Luckily if you don't they have a wide variety of options like quesadillas for you who like to be extraordinary, but trust me when I tell you that these tacos are a must! I went ahead with one of their recommended tacos and got the chicken tinga. Omg! This is one my top tacos of all time. Never had it before, but it's now in the top. I was extra hungry so I got one of their quesadilla specials with chicken. I'm one of those extraordinary people who love things other than taco, but no worries I still love tacos. I love mixing these great tacos with my beer and enjoy having a nice conservation with the owners and chef of the food truck. Can't wait for the next Food Truck Friday to have another one of their delicious tacos.

    So we came to "The Chamber" a Wooden Robot spin off and like the Wooden Robot but in it's own right "The Chamber is a cool place with a parking garage near by (Download the Parkmobile App in advance), the Light rail is seriously right at the back door and tto really top things off the THE TIN KITCHEN was parked right there in the backyard, ready for customers. The truck is very unassuming but the treasure that comes out of that truck is pretty amazing and flavorful. The wife had the salad with chicken, I ordered the Kim Chi Dilla and we had an order of Nachos and as always we shared the 3 items and they were all very good and of course with any items on the outside i am concerned with Whey in the flour products but I am happy to say "NO WHEY!" lol So for me I was happy on all fronts and so was the wife. If you see this truck out tooling around make sure you wave them down or if they are parked have some pretty tasty food and great customer service. The only downside is with any of these trucks is plastic ware, sauce cups etc. Did not bother the review score as it is the world we live in. So have some good food and enjoy.

    Chicken nachos
    Keith S.

    Love that Noda brewing always has a tin kitchen food truck on site! The food is amazing, the staff is friendly and helpful and your food is served hot and in a timely manner. I've eaten from this food truck several times and have never been disappointed. They serve good sized portions and it's delicious. The menu isn't too diverse, but they can only keep so much on the truck so that's understandable. If you see one of the tin kitchen trucks anywhere, be sure to stop and get something, you won't be disappointed.

    Chicken nachos, Thai belly and Korean bbq sliders

    Second time visiting this food truck. Tier one taco spot in Charlotte, in rare company. Have had their tacos, chicken nachos and their sliders and it has all been amazing. Highly recommend

    Pork Al pastor quesadilla with ginger dill pickles.
    Kieran M.

    I had seen the TIN Kitchen rolling around Charlotte a bunch of times over the years and never gave it much of a thought or even knew what it served. That was a mistake....the food I had was A+. We ordered the chicken tinga & beef brisket tacos and then the chipotle chicken, pork al pastor and kids quesadillas with a side of ginger pickles. The tacos were great, but the quesadillas were the star of the show. The tortilla was buttery and crispy and the ingredients were tender and flavorful. If i were to come across this food truck again I would focus my efforts on the quesadillas. The only thing missing was a nice margarita. I typically don't like food trucks. They are usually over priced and overrated. And, it sucks eating food off a flimsy plate with a plastic fork while sitting on a curb of standing up....but, the TIN Kitchen would be my choice amongst the sea of trucks.

    OH MY GAHH!! If I lived in Charlotte, North Carolina I'd be stalking this food truck and this food every day. Had the pleasure of sampling the menu while TIN Kitchen parked out in front of NODA Brewing and yeah, I had seconds haha. Food trucks are pretty simple to review: it's basically the best bar food you could crave. They have nachos, tacos, quesadillas, sliders and it all sounds delicious! Peep them on social media to see where they are for the day and shell put some bills for great food!

    Beef brisket tacos with rice
    Tammy T.

    I'd like to first off forewarn everyone that the tortillas for the tacos are dripping in oil and crispy on the edges. If you can get past the oiliness, then continue reading... The food here looks, smells, and tastes delicious. I ordered the BBQ Beef Brisket Tacos which comes with 2 tacos and a choice of a side (I got the cilantro rice). I wasn't even hungry and downed the dish in nearly 5 minutes flat. Yes, the filling was that good. The brisket was tender and drenched in flavorful sauce. It was accompanied with a slaw and green onions. The tortillas were really oily and on a healthy day I would respond with only a face of disgust. But, at least it's crispy. For a better idea for the level of fry, it's like they dipped it in oil and tossed it on the flat top. It's half way between a soft and hard taco shell. The serving size is large for 2 tacos, but small for $8 (that's the price of gourmet!). I would love to try more dishes here (gotta chase down the food truck) but I can't quite make this a regular excursion.

I just happen to be working in the area where Roaming Fork sets up on Thursdays out in Ballantyne and was able to grab some tasty lunch. The menu is varied and even has an Asian flare! I went with the recommendation of the cashier. I got the Porky Cheesy and the Truffle fries. The grill cheese had a good crunch and a good amount of filling. I love anytime you mix bbq pork and cheese and this didn't disappoint. The truffle fries get squirted with truffle oil after they come out the grease and have an amazing aroma. I liked the flavor but I love fries with a condiment so I felt like the fries could have used some ranch dipping sauce. The menu has a lot of items I would like to try.

They also have the best yucca fries I've probably ever had. My issue with most yucca fries is that the texture tends to be pretty tough, but these are so soft inside - like they mashed the yucca first and then formed the fries. I don't know what magic they use, but they're incredible, and you must get some. We also got a churro filled with dulce de leche, and it came out nice and hot with lots of cinnamon sugar coating. I didn't love the dulce de leche filling for some reason - maybe I got spoiled by spending time in Argentina - so next time I'll likely go for the regular churro.

I follow these guys on Twitter and was always hoping they'd camp out in the Southpark area one day to draw a lunch crowd. To no avail, I was forced to wait until this weekend! Happy to find these guys at Small Bar in the NC Music Factory for PBR Fest. Churning out pizza and wings for the beer crowd. I had heard multiple cheers of praise and glory about this truck's pizza and wings. I was even a little intimidated approaching the order window. The staff were all very friendly and helpful with describing all of the menu items. We ended up getting two slices of cheese, a slice of the buffalo chicken and 5 Carolina Buffalo wings. We sat down with 24oz tallboys in hand and went to town. I was happy to say that the wings are AWESOME. Perfectly cooked, a little crispy on the outside, not dry, tender, slathered generously with amazing sauce. The Carolina Buffalo is a winner. Mustard-based bbq with a plethora of buffalo sauce thrown in. My taste buds were happy. Uhh...they need to make a Carolina Buffalo pizza. (No brainer, yeah?) The only thing that sank my happy sailing dinner experience was the pizza. A little lackluster and the sauce was a bit reminiscent of box pizza from the frozen section in the grocery store. Maybe our slices had been sitting out for a bit, but didn't have the freshest of textures. I did appreciate the crust and enjoyed sopping up the remainder of the wing sauce with them. I can't say that the pizza was banging on all cylinders or a culinary breakthrough, but is definitely reliable. The combo of wings and pizza in one meal from the street, though? Baller status. Grab a tallboy and it's all over. Foodtruck heaven. So happy to have finally tried these guys out and can't wait to see them at Chowdown Uptown in the near future! Carolina Buffalo Pizza, guys!
