    Amazing prices. $3 for your choice of empanadas! I had the Cuban and the chicken empanadas, and let…read moreme tell that while they're both great, the Cuban is truly unique. It is full of Swiss cheese and pork and ham, with a delicious pickle sauce on the side. I can safely say I've never had this particular style of empanada anywhere, and that it's on a mobile food truck is even better! I had some while seeing a show at Will's Pub, and I can't recommend this food truck more. Next time I need to try the ropa vieja, they were sold out when I went! Either way, one of the best food trucks for a quick light snack at night, especially when you don't want to shell out $15 for a huge messy food truck meal. P.S. the water bottles are only $1 and they're 20 oz.! Bargain of the century.

So, when this place came to life it was the love child I needed. The location various, but can be easily found on their website or Twitter. The running deal is 3 empanadas for 9 bucks. Don't think for one second that this won't fill you up cause these babies are stuffed carb glory. I usually go with the picadillo cause it's my fave. But the flavors of the day have swayed me more than once. Anything with goat cheese is sure to get my attention. Staff is always quick and friendly and I've stalked them down on more than one lunch break in the past. The dessert ones are always a safe bet too if you've got a sweet tooth like me. Overall: A A mobile love child of empanadas and food truck.

    We came for the Smash Burger (which was delicious) but we'll come back for the Birria Tacos (OMG,…read moreperfection)! We went to Ivanhoe Park Brewing specifically to try out this truck and we're so pleasantly surprised by the casual, charming and inclusive brewery. But the Simmer Down food was the highlight! Service was friendly and they have a pager system so you can grab a beer while you wait for your food. The smash burger on brioche was one of the top five burgers in Orlando for sure. The taco was really next level good. And the churro was sweet and delicious. Only reason I can't give them 5 stars is the fries were soggy and not my favorite. Flavor was good, and they were nice and salty... but just too wet and limp. That said, everything else was amazing and we will be back!

From smash burgers…read moreto tacos and even a stuffed churro, the killer options made it tough to decide on what to order. I landed on ordering the Beatty's Blue's Smash Burger and upgraded to truffle fries (go big or go home!). Everything was fantastic and memorable, even a week or so later writing this review! The burger was perfectly cooked, the toppings were on point, and the fries were decadent and jam packed with truffle flavor. 10/10 food without question. What made it even better? The personable, stellar service. In an area saturated by food trucks, Simmer Down is a stand out. If you are lucky enough to run into or visit Simmer Down, at the bare minimum, get the truffle fries!

Everything is made fresh, including the unbelievably fluffy pitas that taste like they came straight out of someone's home kitchen. The chicken schnitzel was perfect for the kids, but the falafel was the star for me, crispy on the outside, full of flavor on the inside. The hummus was another standout: perfectly creamy with that rich tahini flavor that makes you want to scoop up every last bit. This is a food truck with limited seating, and it was very busy on a Sunday afternoon, but honestly, it was worth every minute. Do yourself a favor and give this place a try. It's a gem.

    For months we have driven by this food truck parked near the Maitland SunRail station and never…read morecould catch the name. There also seemed to be no set schedule but there always seemed to be a line and finally after searching around and seeing all the amazing reviews we tried it. I was impressed! Is it cheap? No, but is any food these days? The fresh homemade pita was like an edible fluffy pillow and the shawarma was delicious! We also really enjoyed the cucumber & tomato salad. I appreciated the chicken schnitzel that my son had was very flavorful and not your dry bland chicken strips that many kids chicken fingers orders often are. I would like to try other hummus on the menu. I ordered the regular and it was good, but not as good as I had hoped for a place called the Hummus Guy. I love hummus but also I am no expert by any means, so try it yourself and let me know if I am off base. I recommend trying and hope to see the Hummus Guy in Maitland for a long time!

The only downside I have to say about today is because they have a baby shower and every table on the inside is being taken up by this 50% baby shower along with half of the tables outside and I don't wanna listen to their baby shower or any other people with their children I just wanted to sit for a drink and they have taken over like three of the tables with the umbrellas and I know it's not à la carte's fault but it's really I will not be getting any food today, but I did take a sip margaritas, sparkling coconut margarita to go because I would like to try it later. If you haven't been here at this place is honestly great however, right now there's a little bit lack of parking due to the very large baby shower party inside; I'm not sure if you can park at the parking lot across the street because they do have towing signs, but it is a really nice location when you can find a place to sit.

This time I got a shrimp taco with the cheese as well as pastor and a quesabirria. The birria is so good here. The food came out quickly and honestly the prices are not bad if you just come to eat. If you drink your soft drink is almost as much as a taco. So maybe stick to water. I like this location better than the Altamonte one because it was busy. I wish they weee playing sports on the TVs instead of "the bee movie" but that's okay! It just won't be a place that I go and sit at the bar. Staff was nice and the blaring Mexican music was theme for the part. Some of my favorite tacos in Orlando!

My husband loved his queso tacos. The rice & beans were good. The elotes come in a good size for $6. Service: we got there early but they kept an eye on our food to ensure to hand it to us once done. They were nice. Ambiance: they have indoor and outdoor seating. They have nice decor inside. Last time I ate there, they don't offer free tap water. Not sure if it has changed and main reason why we did an order to go. They do have an app now that does rewards so I might be going back more often for lunch. If they could make better dinner combos with rice & beans, I would go. Also, complimentary chips and salsa like other places would make it awesome for me to sit there and eat but that's my opinion.
