We were the only customers there! I had seen on-line that three food trucks would be present, but there were just two -The Gulla Grille (Brazilian) and Taste of Home (Puerto Rican). Aunties Pasta (Italian) wasn't there. The designers of Westside really need to get a lot of credit for the beautiful job they did in salvaging this forlorn corner of Hartford. The dozens of wood tables and benches were made from old recycled industrial spools, and they are really amazing. There are corn hole boards, beer pong table, Giant Jenga, Connect Four, a movie screen, a music stage, and a bar spread throughout the property so there's a ton of things to do there. I had a kebab plate from Gulla and my wife had a cheeseburger from Taste of Home. She was given one of those buzzing gizmos to tell her when her food was ready. I knew my lunch was ready when the guy flagged me down like he was hailing a cab. I love the concept of food truck courts and I suspect Westside is quite a bit busier in the evenings that it was lunch time on a holiday weekend Saturday, when we had the place to ourselves..

I'm in everytime I take a bite. Treva has it as an appetizer in West Hartford. I think the $12 price point for these was a bit much. With that being said, the Buffalo Chicken Dip was $12 and you got WAY more bang for your buck so I'd suggest that if you're hungry. It's not winning any awards out here but it'll get the job done Truffle Mac & Cheese bites were pretty affordable. Not my favorite , but good news you can taste the truffle which isn't always the case. I give 5 stars because for a food truck they do a pretty good job - the menu has a lot of great options and I'd be down to try their other offerings next time I see them around.

This is the second time I have bought something from this truck. Where I live has food trucks come…read moresome nights and the first time I tried this place, the wait was a long time. They were supposed to be here from 4-8 and I didn't time how long it was taking but I went up there twice and they claimed that they were waiting for the rice to finish. I probably was one of the first customers so I figured they might not have been ready and they had given me a free soda and a free dessert and extra pork so I wasn't too irritated about the situation. Plus the people who work the truck are very nice. Today, I was incredibly annoyed because I should have just cooked like I planned to. My food would have gotten done faster than they boxed up the food I bought. I paid almost 60 dollars including a tip to wait almost an hour for two pork bowls and rice. I wasn't given a wait time when I ordered the food so I just went to sit in my car outside my building since I figured it wouldn't take that long. After half an hour I decided to go see why the thing they gave me hadn't buzzed yet. When I went over, they were chatting up other customers having a great time. I asked about my order and they claimed it had been called already, so I figured it was just a mistake, but then someone else said they were still waiting on one more pork bowl. So I went inside, put away my groceries, washed my dishes, took out the trash and finally when I returned the food was done. If they ever come back here, I won't be spending my money with them, as nice as they are, they have held up my time twice and the food isn't worth my time. Oh and all I got for all that wait was a "God bless you" so I hope the Lord blesses them with better time management and that we never meet again.

I'm not sure if it's because I waited to get home and maybe it was an off day, but I wasn't a fan of the tacos. Even with the consume, it was pretty flavorless.

My mom got a quesadilla and said it was alright so maybe I'd try that next time if I tried them again.

There were plenty of lobster dishes on the menu; from lobster and hot dog, lobster grilled cheese, lobster roll, and more. There were dishes up to $50 plus dollars. My husband had the lobster and hot dog, he said it was delicious. I had the lobster and shrimp grilled cheese. There were plenty of chunks of lobster and shrimp. The grilled cheese was loaded and cheesy, it was better than I expected. I am a fan! The fries were crispy and the people working there were nice. If you're a lobster fan and see this food truck, I highly recommend.

My favorite time of year? The moment I get to head back to Lobster Landing…read more There's just something magical about this place. Tucked right on the water, it's a peaceful, no frills seafood shack where you can sit outside, watch the boats glide by, breathe in the salty air, and let the day slow down. It's New England summer at its absolute best. Everyone talks about their famous lobster rolls (and for good reason because people travel far for them), but I'm a clam chowder girl through and through. And let me tell you: Lobster Landing has the best clam chowder I've had anywhere. It's creamy, fresh, loaded with clams, and the corn is sweet and crisp like it was just shucked that morning. The vibe here? Super laid-back. Pretty sure it's BYOB, and people come prepared. The picnic tables are almost always full, but somehow there's always a seat when you need one. The staff is always smiling, and it never feels rushed. Just chill. If you're looking for the perfect coastal stop this summer, this is it. Bring a friend, bring a drink, bring your appetite, and prepare to fall in love with Connecticut shoreline dining. If the line is around the corner, slather on the SPF and catch a tan. It's worth the wait!

Fell in love with their brand, attitude, and food. Their delightful and rotating menu features entrees, salads, sides and desserts made with local and organic ingredients. To this day, the "Un-Beet-Able" veggie burger is still my favorite. The meatballs, veggie summer rolls and tacos (all vegan) are all super good, but those are only available from time to time. Most recently, I was able to try their take on poutine, SO good! Amor also whips up some flavorful and decadent desserts too, so keep an eye out for those when you have the chance!
