Quite possibly the best food truck in JC. I don't go nearly as much as I would like because their menu is primarily grilled meats and I don't eat meat. Their menu consists if whatever they cooked up that day and they post on FB as soon as they open up. Today I saw they had a jerk egg salad sandwich and a guacamole side so I made sure to show up for that. Of course the portion sizes are HUGE. You know you are being fed by someone who likes to eat when you get this much food. When I first took a bite of the guacamole, I almost fainted. It was seriously that good. I was excited to be able to get some non-meat items so I hope they continue that. I do often crave Caribbean flavors and this is some of the best I have tried. I would love to be able to get a chickpea curry. Yum! read more

I love the food here. It's always fresh and hot and tastes great. Our waitress was very helpful and kind. She always kept a smile on her face. During dinner time and peak times, it can be a little loud but nothing that would drive you away. read more

Today my daughter and I shared the PR Cuban and PR Explosion, both delicious and very different from each other. The sauce on the Explosion is like nothing I've ever tasted (in a great way). I got the hot sauce on the side since I don't like too much spice (oh boy it's spicy) but I couldn't get enough of it. Apparently the menu changes, so I'm looking forward to what I find on my next visit. read more

Holy F***! This is a rare find in Johnson City. The owners are fantastic and the food is incredible! I had the PR Cuban sandwich. It was flavorful and a very nice portion. While waiting, they offered samples of a couple of other dishes, and they were equally great. I highly recommend, and will definitely be back the next time I come through on business! read more

Traveled over 14 hrs from the NY city area to find an amazing food truck in Johnson City. Found a very happy crew; the air engulfed in a delish aroma of mix Peruvian/ Puerto Rican food. While I waited to be serve I overheard comments of everyone anxious to order: all A+. When my time came, I had a chance to pleasure every clusters and nerve endings of my tongue and sense of taste. To the point that I had to come the next day to try something else. Good portions- good price, and overall great gourmet experience. My complements to the chef! read more

So the fam and I decided to give this place a try. My daughter and her bf ordered the Cuban, which they allowed as a really good sandwich. I tried the PR Explosion, which had a sweet yet tangy BBQ sauce on pork BBQ, with sweet slaw. Outstanding! My wife had the "secret menu" item (displayed prominently on the menu board, natch) which was crabmeat and shrimp soup, which was fantastic. It was about 2/3's of a quart of soup, which was enough for everyone to try. The pita chips were plentiful and good foe dipping in the soup. Good portion size, and everyone was happy with what they got. Definitely worth a visit! read more

Great food! The owner gave us other dishes to try as well which we loved. We will definitely go back there

Best food in Johnson City and maybe the best Caribbean food I've had anywhere (even in the Caribbean itself)! They don't hold back on flavors and serve large, hearty dishes. You honestly can't go wrong with any of the dishes on the menu. Since they're a small business, their hours sometimes shift a little but they are very diligent at posting these updates on their Facebook page. read more

The Peruvian burrito is the best burrito I've ever had. and I lived in Southern California for years! read more

Discovered this place two years ago, and I'm SO glad I did. My partner is from Puerto Rico and introduced me to to the rich cuisine, years back. I joke that him and his family have ruined me when it comes to food authenticity. Many of my favorite Caribbean and Hispanic food joints tasted like garbage after having the real deal But, let me tell you! This place does not disappoint. The food is so full of flavor, I have yet to try anything that is not impeccable. The menu is constantly changing, which makes each trip a new experience. It quickly became my favorite restaurant, food truck, joint, whatevs. Not to mention, David, the owner, is one of the funniest, most creative, and nicest dudes you will ever meet! read more

Been there twice now and loved both experiences. The last visit we got the Cuban sandwich. Absolutely awesome! Great tasting meat and spices on a baguette that had just the right chewiness to the crust. We are fortunate to have their fixed location right around the corner from our condo. I am sure they will be a regular on our lunch plans. read more

Love this little hut! My first taste of Cuban food and it was out of this world! One of my good friends also worked here some time ago, and he is the one who recommended us to try it out. So worth it! You just have to catch em when they are open which can be tricky! read more

Some of the friendliest people I met while in TN! The food was amazing, we had chicken with slaw, beans & rice, and salty plantains. The tea was great! If I'm ever back in town I will stop. We were on vacation from Indiana, if this place was back at home I'd eat there every week! read more

AMAZING. As I type this review, I am currently eating the Pork GyroFries, Empanada Beef, and the Chicken Fajita. As a world traveler, I have tasted food in the Caribbean and I have to say, there is no match to this place nestled away in little Johnson City, TN. The pork is to die for... Wish I could somehow endorse this food truck. Would eat it every day if I could. read more
