    Food: I tried this place for the first time, and it's now one of my top favorite chicken and rice carts. I would recommend getting the combo chicken and lamb platter. You have a choice of vegetables - lettuce, tomato, corn, olives, onion, and cucumber. They also have either yellow or spicy rice as well as five sauces (white, spicy, BBQ, cilantro and mint, and tahini) to choose from. My preference is all of the sauces except for the BBQ sauce. The platter was fresh and hot. All of the meats were moist and flavorful. We also tried the falafel as a side (2 pieces per order) which was good, but I wouldn't get it again. This is definitely one of the best halal carts in the city and worth the trip to Astoria. Service: The staff are very welcoming and friendly. They were appreciative of our business and made recommendations because it was our first time. Ambiance: This is a street cart with no seating outside. Overall, I would highly recommend this cart!

    This is a recently upgraded food cart. That is now a truck on 30th Ave. the workers here are super nice and patient while you decide what to eat. There's a ton of options between the proteins as well as the type of rice that you can order. I decided to try the spicy rice with Kafka and also Chicken with regular rice. I also got falafel and some of the dips on the side when I went to pay, the guys were very nice and gave me extras of the dips. With three platters and two sides and ended up costing $37. Everything was nicely packed, and fresh by the time I got home. I do think that the sides of the dips are not really worth it for the price. They are smaller containers, but it was very nice that they gave me extra. They were nothing to write home about so I don't think I would go get it again. However the platters were very delicious especially with the green sauce. Everything was nice and smoky and not dry. I would definitely come here again.

    Basically Birria-Landia's Upper East Side cousin, which is not a bad thing. If you like…read moreBirria-Landia, the more well-known and widespread birria truck family, you'll probably like Casa Birria too. And if you haven't had Birria-Landia or birria in general, well, you'll probably still like them! Casa Birria is a simple food truck with a simple menu of just a few items. I noticed they have a few meat options but assuming you eat beef, you of course have to get the birria (slow-cooked beef in a slightly spicy and indulgent broth). It comes in multiple vehicles which are all basically some configuration of tortilla, onions, cilantro, meat, and sometimes cheese depending on what you pick. The taco is the classic and the $12 taco combo is a nice deal, though as a smaller eater and cheese-lover, I personally go for a couple of mulitas. Juicy meat with a bit of heat, melty cheese, and legit corn tortillas soaked in that delicious broth, what's not to love? The truck is open pretty late, has fast straightforward service, and like any truck does not have seating so you have to either eat on the sidewalk or have a place in mind to bring it; there is a park a few blocks up. Definitely cheaper than most meals in this part of the city and I'd be a regular if I lived close by!

    This food truck is usually parked right at the corner of 86th and 2nd Avenue and offers solid…read moreMexican eats. Burritos, quesadillas, tacos, tostadas. Three taco combo for $12. A few cold drinks to choose from. Polite and friendly service. Not the cheapest but nothing is nowadays and the menu items are tasty. They also cater.

    Mexican Food Cart…read more The cutest little food cart. Prime location at 86th and Second Avenue. He opens daily at 9:30am my favorite time for brunch! The price is right, he's efficient, clean and there's plenty of room for social distancing while you wait for your food. The trouble is when I went today it was a different guy. I said give me extra beans because I didn't want meat and leave off tomatoes because I'm allergic. Well in addition I didn't find any grated cheese, it's like a cheese powder on it, and he said he puts guacamole on top but he didn't. The good news I'm full and it was cheap and fast. I don't plan to return though. It's a cute cart but not that cute! It's not good when you get to the location where you plan to eat and find your food isn't up to par. Maybe you will have better luck.

    Located right next to the new-ish 86th street Q train subway entrance I started to hit up this food…read morecart of Mexican deliciousness during the pandemic months when restaurant dining was not a thing. And why not? The food here is fresh, fast, tasty, and quite affordable. The vegetarian tacos are my thing, while my gal enjoys their burritos. Nice people working the cart, and it's a good thing to support a hard working small biz like this. Dammit - now I want a taco and it's after midnight. Guess I'll wait until tomorrow and dream about them.

I have been here a couple times and I mistook it for another popular Food Cart farther South. Today I returned to buy a muffin. After I got back home I realized that the windows where the muffins were displayed looked different from my last visit. Did he change carts? I'm not sure. I'm sorry I didn't pay closer attention. I'm wondering if the city can have different carts approved for the same spot on the sidewalk but they sell on different days of the week. (I hope that statement makes sense.) Today I purchased a muffin to freeze. The price was $2.00 which is the most I've ever paid for a street cart muffin. I'm going back another time to check out this cart. Today was a strange experience. I may be in the Twilight Zone of Street Vendors.......

This truck is serving up some of the best food in the city, and you're sure to be impressed with everything they have to offer. The Brother From Another Mother is known for their amazing tacos, and you definitely won't want to miss out on them. But that's not all they have to offer - be sure to try their burritos, quesadillas and other dishes as well. You won't be disappointed. The Brother From Another Mother is a must-visit food truck in New York, and we highly recommend them.
