I was really excited to try their empanadas, especially given that they're gluten-free! Some…read moreempanadas are wheat based, but these are based from corn. I ordered a beef and shrimp empanada. The total was $14, and it's great that you get to mix and match any two for $14. I was a little bit, disappointed by how salty the empanadas were. I felt like I was sprinkling lime juice in using the cream sauce, just to dull down the saltines rather than for the flavor. The beef and cheese empanada was a bit oily, but less salty, whereas the shrimp empanada was quite salty. I was, however, quite impressed by the yucca fries. Those were very well seasoned, and had a sweetness to them. That was really pleasant! I definitely wanted to like this place a lot more than I did, especially given the hype around them.

One of the most colorful food trucks in the Nashville area, this is an Columbian empanada paradise. My understanding is the empies are all gluten free, as well, which is a bonus. Well done beef empanada. One of the best I have had in my life (the best being Empa Mundo in Irving, Texas). Seems like a simple thing, but the empie, the unique mix of beef, gouda, and spices, and the sauce just work. Simple comfort food, but well done. I would also consider adding on an Avo-Tomato salad or Platano Maduro to round out the meal. Drinks also very authentic for the type of food. Look at their social media to see where they are this week. Basement East is one of their normal haunts.

When I went, the kiosk ordering system indicated they were out of beef and cheese empanadas. I asked the man working whether that was the case, and he said yes but that he'd put cheese on the side of my beef empanada! The empanada was fresh and crispy. It had a perfectly crispy crust, and I LOVED the corn dough used for the empanadas. They're so much more flavorful than flour based empanadas in my opinion. I will absolutely be back to this food truck to try more wonderful food!

The empanada is INCREDIBLE. Flakey, deep fried goodness with a side of cilantro sauce on the side. (I kicked myself for only getting 1 when I drove away) When I tell you I crave this arepa, I am not lying! Flavorful shredded chicken, black beans, and plantains inside a warm cornmeal pocket. This is also a MUST! Both of those for $20 and a full happy tummy!

Inside, the ambience does not get much better but we were there for the food and not the vibe. Our server did not speak a lot of English but it was fine. Between the three of us with our limited Spanish and her limited English, we were able to order just fine. We started off with empanadas. Super good--hot out of the fryer, crispy on the outside and flavor-packed meat on the inside. Yum. The only thing I wished we had was some type of sauce to dip them in. For entrees, we ordered the Ropa Vieja and Carne Asada. Both were very good. The portions were a good size--I could not finish my dinner. I also ordered an arepa as a side and I wish I had ordered five more. Great little hidden gem!

The picture shows a whole piece but when they brought it out it was a few pieces scattered and the fat was not crispy.

What Delicious Colombian food!…read more The truck is in the parking lot of the green roof plaza, right between Title Max and AutoZone. (Plaza where World Cash Services is) They have amazing empanadas and arepas, and my personal favorite, the carimanolas! The arepas are delicious and filled with three different types of meat! It comes with carne (Ground beef), bacon and ham! It was absolutely phenomenal! The empanadas are crispy on the outside, and oh so delicious on the inside. My favorite was the carmanolas, which I never had before! The outside is fried yucca, which feels almost like a fluffy soft potato, but is filled with meat. They serve them with this delicious homemade sauce! Try their spicier version, which they serve in a jar! It is absolutely delicious!
