    Who says you can't get full off veggies? Well I'm here to say that you can. I had a weekend visit with a friend in Huntsville. My friend recommended we check out a vegetarian/vegan food truck. Even though I'm normally a meat eater, I was open to the idea because I also love veggies. When we got there, a small line of people were in front of the food truck. To note we waited for a long time because Chef Will was going one at a time taking orders and then making the food to order. I felt for him having to do both tasks, so I didn't mind the wait. When we got to our turn to order, my friend ordered the portobello steak wrap, and I got the portobello steak sandwich. I must say the food was very impressive. My sandwich was full of ripe avocado, mounds of spinach and sautéed portobello mushrooms. On the side was round tortilla chips with sour cream and some type of hot sauce. It was so good. The only thing missing was the meat lol jk. Seriously this place was delicious, and I didn't miss the meat. Great job Chef Will!

    We just moved to the area and I've been dying to check out Chef Will. The reviews that say to not come hangry are accurate. There was a wait and the weather was cold... but the portions are big, Chef Will makes it up fresh, he understands how vegan food should be... so flavorful and good! The benefit of waiting to order and then to pick up was that I got to meet some good people and the sunset was beautiful. When we got our food, my entire family was silent- that's how you know the food is really good. We got the black bean nachos, black bean tacos, southern plate, and a portobello wrap. Go. You will not regret it! Be patient. An artist can't be rushed! Have gratitude. This man is *single handedly* serving up delicious vegan food and even the non-vegans line up for it!

    Chef Will is a prototypical hole in the wall parked around Lowe Mill who serves up pretty incredible vegan and vegetarian dishes. I came here from word of mouth, since he's pretty difficult to find and have come across otherwise. His food is freshly made to order and will really makes any carnivore consider changing, although there are a few nuances to his truck. Number one would be finding the place. I don't think he's particular mobile, so where we found him was at Lowe Mill right underneath the water tower. We spent a little while walking around until we came across him. Second is that he's not staffed heavily. And by that I mean it's only Chef Will. It wasn't super busy when we were there, but it still took about 20 min for the food (worth it in my mind). Lastly, bring some cash. The prices were listed, but it was basically $10/entree. We went with the portabella steak and cheese and spring rolls. Both were excellent and I'm looking forward to trying more in the future.

    I was asking around for new healthy spots to eat at around town and Chef Will the Palate was repeatedly mentioned so I decided to give it a go and was not disappointed! Not only did the food taste amazing (seriously, there was the perfect combination of flavor that just mixed will together while your chewing) but I felt great and full of energy afterwards rather than tired and slow like you would eating food from some other places. Give Chef Will a shot if you haven't yet. I promise you won't regret it!

    Southern Plate- Peppered steak (mushrooms), rice, collard greens, black beans on a bed of lettuce and corn bread

    A-FREAKING-MAZING! If I could give 10 stars I would! From the taste of the food to the hospitable service, Chef Will's is so good. Plus the prices are great. Definitely a bang for your buck! Each plate is like $10. I've paid MORE at other vegan spots and have gotten wayyy LESS food! Before I went vegan I ate here, and didn't care that I didn't have any meat--that's how good it is. The taste is so flavorful and he is always so helpful and patient when you ask about menu items and suggestions. I will say if you're in a rush, this isn't the place for you to eat because it's almost always a line and with it being just him, it takes awhile. So if I were to knock off a star that would be why. But the good comfort food and good service makes up for the time you wait. As we were paying, I forgot to ask for some cornbread to go with my greens and he stopped what he was doing to make me some from scratch so I could have it before I left, even with a long line waiting behind us. He gave it to us for free! The Southern Plate, Peppered Steak and Rice and the Portobello Mushroom Wrap are definitely my top suggestions. With a Mango Super T to drink!

    Caught Chef Will Tuesday at Lowe Mill at 4:30pm. Good stuff for veggie lovers. He always makes his dishes beautiful as well as delicious.

    Vegan Tacos
    Crystal P.

    Chef Will the Palate was parked at an R&B live music event at Lowe Mill. There was a long line, speaking to how good the food was. I ordered the vegan tacos and they were sooo good! They had black beans, mushroom, rice, and avocado. There were some other things on it that I cannot recall. It was topped with a walnut cream sauce. This was a quality vegan dish and I will be ordering from here again.

    What can I say, we love chef! A staple for damn good and fresh vegan food! Whether we are ordering from the menu or asking chef to "just whip us something up", we are NEVER disappointed.

    Y'all this place is so good I came back twice in two days. Each time I asked chef to make me something that was not on the menu and each time my taste buds exploded with happiness. Chef is knowledgeable about plant based foods and he wasn't afraid to share his knowledge. He offered me his elderberry and grinder tea to try and it was yumness! I'm so happy my friend recommended this place bc I'm going to be a regular. The only cons are the inconsistent hours and the waiting time.

    Awesome menu!

SHE'S AWESOME!!..We gave her an extra tip jst for being so professional & for NOT calling us "BUBBA" & "HUN"..(yes I'm serious)..Honestly I'm surprised at so many younger servers who want to give customers condescending "PET" names..WHAT HAPPENED TO MA'AM AND SIR?

We never had to ask for a refill it was right there. Let's get into the food! We started with the crab cakes!! Listen you better get the crab cakes! Very full layered with a fresh and rounded flavors. Next, I had the Ashley Farm chicken with mashed potatoes and green beans. Chicken was tender and juicy. Potatoes nicely whipped hearty and full of flavor. The sauce was light and complimented the chicken well. Steak Frites uhhhh it was so delicious!! My daughter order it and she is 10 and she could cut the steak on her own. Buttery and juicy! Truffle fries came with the steak. Lastly, my husband had the red snapper with cheddar grits! Honey he cleaned that plate. None of us left a crumb! We will definitely be back for a date night! Char will be on our regular rotation!! I hear the Brunch is Amazing!

A rusted, faded sign marks the restaurant on Governors Drive. I find it by its bright teal, yellow and purple roofed building. It's a typical hot and humid Alabama day, but for some reason everyone '"eating in" is outside. There are several people out here but only one has gotten their food. Cars are pulling in and out, most people are doing carry-out tonight, much different than the lunch crowd - tables are at a premium then. They have upgraded a little inside - the garbage bags acting as ceiling tiles have been replaced with real tiles and the buckets to catch the drips are gone. I was bummin' - it's been awhile since I've been and margaritas are off the menu. Hopefully, someday soon, they will once again be on the "good" list and be able to serve those cold cups of awesomeness. Now for the food.YUM! My absolute fave is the rellano. Perfection in my mind. Their refried beans rock and the tamales aren't bad either. The enchiladas are not my fave. My husband is partial to the fish tacos - way too healthy - nobody goes to Bandito Burrito for health food. Bandito's prices are pretty reasonable considering the amount of food that you get. I usually don't wait too long for my food, today is another story. I'm always looking for that hole-in-the-wall, most time, those are the true gems. Bandito Burrito is definitely one of those gems.

We specifically came for margaritas during their social hour. $3 off a set list plus seasonals. There was a table card listing seasonal drinks. I specifically asked our waitress if the Christmas margarita was considered seasonal. She assured me it was, until we got our check and she said it wasn't. I'm not arguing over $6 but $26 for two watered down drinks was not a social hour deal. It's not a deal anywhere. My husband and I shared the three different empanadas gracing the social hour menu. The chicken was delicious, the beef was ok but the fish was fishy. So much so that I didn't even get to a second bite. We ordered chips, salsa and queso for the group. The chips were great - crisp and airy. The queso was good though unremarkable, the green salsa was great. The red was a tad hot for me but everyone else at the table disagreed with me. Husband and I shared the enchiladas verdes. Three chicken enchiladas were served with a plate of nearly tasteless rice. The enchiladas were dry. Even queso didn't help. I ate half of one and my husband didn't even want my second. We didn't take home the leftover enchilada. That pretty much sums them up - not even worthy of a to-go box. With tip, our check was $90. Way too much for such a mediocre meal. We just walked in the door. Hanging up our jackets, we agreed - we won't go back.
