My sister-in-law had the carne asada with grilled onions, tomato and lettuce. Service was prompt. We wanted ice cream/gelato but we were already full.

I had read the reviews for Dandino's and I wanted to try their South American food. I ordered two items--a mechada arepa and a mechada empanada. Mechada is Venezuelan shredded beef. The arepa is made with corn flour in rounds and filled with whatever filling you choose. The empanada was not sealed, but was partly open. Arepas are a common food in Venezuela and Columbia. There was a bit of a language problem but we got past that. I took a seat and enjoyed the singing by an older man who played the keyboard and sang to entertain in the food court. When I ordered, I was told it would take 7 minutes and that was right on. The woman I ordered with arrived at my table with my arepa and empanada in that time. She then brought my Coke. First off, the food was blisteringly hot. I had to wait a bit to be able to enjoy. That showed me the freshness of the making of the items. The mechada was excellent. It was juicy and the sauce with the shredded beef had a super flavor. I'll be back but I'll mix my order and get a cheese empanada and a different arepa. It's worht the stop here. It is close to UNLV and I'm there often so there's not much of a drive. Note: This is a cash only place. No credit cards or contactless payments.

Mr. Cooker is a Las Vegas food truck that's been around for a little over a year now. I'm surprised at how few their review count is, despite their appearances at such events as the Great American Foodie Fest, Sunset Park'd, and a Yelp Elite Event. The former two are sometimes derided for overpriced and lackluster food, which is true for some places. However, they impressed people including yours truly at the latter, which is why I was so glad to find them in the wild today. Well, "the wild" in this case is the inaugural running of a weekly food truck gathering at the Total Wine & More on Las Vegas Blvd (near Fry's / Town Square), and it's more like a ring of about ten trucks/trailers/vans showed up and these guys were in the thick of it. I knew that they'd be among the best, so I couldn't pass them up as I regrettably did at other food truck events. The man running front of house (or outside of truck, in this case) gave me a brief tour of some of their menu. I went for his favorite after finding out that I could get two different meat choices. My order of patacones ($8 for two) came out within perhaps 5 minutes still plenty hot, but I eagerly dug in to these creations of meat, cheese, and sauces sandwiched between fried, crispy plantains. That crispness stands out first and foremost. It's not a hard crunch, and it yields something substantial in your mouth that texturally reminded me of some chicken skins that I'd recently had. Speaking of which, the meats are no slouch. The pork was great, but the shredded beef was surprisingly juicy and rich in flavor. And the slew of sauces was complementary and not overwhelming, although some areas were less sauced. Fortunately, I soon noticed that they had squeeze bottles including one that contained more of that ubiquitous green cilantro sauce. Ask for them. They're important. I'm definitely going to revisit Mr. Cooker soon. I definitely need to try their arepas, empanadas, pepitos, and perhaps one day a traditional certain comestible, if they ever source the right corn and cheese to craft the recipe to their liking. I'll be waiting.

There were an equal number of people inside also enjoying some food. I walked in intent on getting something to go. There were three people working (possibly more in the back). It wasn't crazy busy but no one seemed to be in any hurry to welcome us or take our order. We waited for 6-7 minutes before anyone acknowledged us. All in all, it was fine because I needed time to look at the menu, but it wasn't like they didn't see us but we didn't even get so much as a, "I'll be right with you." I ordered the Coconut, Turmeric Latte, iced. My friend got the Horchai (Horchata and Chai) also iced. Took what seemed like a long time to get that sorted. The place is trendy. I can't say I found it welcoming. For a place that I likened to a coffee house, I didn't feel like I could breeze in and find my own seat, setup my laptop and hangout for an afternoon...which is what I would want to do. This felt more like a restaurant where you needed to wait to be seated. I dunno, it wasn't the vibe I was expecting. (We didn't stay, and we didn't get food). Everyone appeared happy and to be enjoying their food. Perhaps we just caught them at a weird time, but I wasn't all that impressed. The lattes were good (enough)...I wouldn't get mine again. If I were downtown I might stop in again, but I don't see me staying.

Food: Chicken Empanada Beef Arepas My friend ordered a couple of appetizers but I forgot what it was called but I'll upload the pix. It was good. The Empanada was delicious. I loved the texture and the chicken was flavorful. The Arepas was okay alone. But when you add the sauce it elevated and tasted so much better. The sauces were a green, spicy and another that is like an aioli. Now the negative. Service was horrible. 4 out of 5 of us got our food and the main person who we were celebrating did not get her food. We were already done and she finally got her order. I had to ask a couple of times for a cup of ice. I haven't drank can soda in a long time but it was $4.14. I was like WOW but ok. Overall, I'd still return because the food was delicious. The server just needs help. Im thinking she did not put my friends order in. I was Happy to see a guy walking around asking how's everything. We told him our friend didn't get her food and he asked the kitchen about it.

Service was remarkable- I felt like I was back home with my mom/grandma as she was taking care of us! Ultimately, we ordered (I can't remember the actual names) a chicken, plantain and corn soup ($17.99) with rice, a vegetarian fried plantain and salsa entree ($8.99) and a soursop $5.99 and a lulo $5.99 (for water based) drink. Everything was so delicious- we couldn't believe it. It was also nice and cool inside, with lots of fans, and had a dark ambience. They also had lots of TVs on to watch futbol!

So to access it you do have to park somewhere, then walk up if you're not already at the outlets shopping. Food: I ordered a beef empanada and two Arepas. The empanadas are very small. And the beef portion inside was very nominal. I mostly tasted potato. The empanada was very crispy which I loved. The arepa was filled with chicharrón which was tender and incredibly well seasoned. The cornbread bun was the perfect. It was soft but had a bit of crispness. Overall I really enjoyed the food. The food by itself is worthy of a 5 star rating. However the wait time for the food in my opinion is too long for a food truck, especially with the limited menu. I work across the street and it took just about 6 minutes to reach this truck walking. My coworker and I ordered the same items right after each other but food took more than 20 minutes to receive. I got the empanada immediately but the two arepas took a lot of prep time for both of us. That's not really convenient when you have only a 30 minute lunch.
