I love that you can park in the Avenue parking structure for $3 for 3 hours! Such a steal when trying to figure out where do that downtown.

They block…read moreoff several blocks of Wisconsin Ave with tons of vendors, giving it a farmers' market type vibe.

The Linguica is phenomenal. Great customer service. Great guys. Highly recommend!!!read more

This might be the food cart with the most aura I've ever seen…read more Rick and James have been operating on this street corner by the Chase Building since 1999 and provide not just excellent service, but also an astonishing variety of meats. I was just expecting the regular hot dogs ($4) and Polishes ($7.75), but then they show me around to the VIP section of the cart where they had Hungarian sausages, Cajun sausages, Linguisas (a Portuguese sausage I'd never even heard of that apparently goes back to Roman times), and many others. They also provide drinks and chips, and even as I was standing there they had a small crowd of return customers and loyal patrons. I decided on the Linguisa with some brown mustard, ketchup, and onions, wrapped up to go. $7.75--a little more expensive than other hot dog vendors in the city, but when I got back to the office I wish I had ordered 2. Good lord it was good.

Food truck Friday!…read more I have noticed this food cart/truck always seem to be popular, and thought I would give it a try. I got the special today - 2 chicken chimichangas, and they were really good! It came with beans and rice, a little bit of salad and some avocados all in this little container. Really quite a bit of food for $7.75! Only suggestion for improvement was that they only have forks to give out, and you really did need a knife to cut the chimichangas, or just use your hands. Fortunately I brought it back to my place of work where I had all kinds of utensils.

The…read morelunch she serves up is top quality and she clearly knows the regulars, as I saw when I patronized her cart with my customer. I chose the three chicken tacos with everything minus jalapenos. What I got was a massive amount of food and all for well less than $10. Very fresh, the tortillas tasted like they'd been made that morning and the pico de gallo was nice and zippy, and the avocado slices were cut right from the avocado on top of my tacos. It was a little hard to eat that much food, but I managed to do it. There are some tables and chairs nearby along Mason Street by the river so you don't necessarily have to take lunch back to your desk. There is always a line and that's a good thing. Cash only, as far as I could tell.

Just discovered PT due to their truck coming to an event we had at our preschool. Although it…read morewasn't an option, the guy let me get 2 different tacos (they were 2 for 10), instead of me having to try the same two tacos and having to buy 4 to try multiple flavors/meats. The tacos were a really good size and PACKING with flavor! I got one steak and one pork one. They were both seriously delicious. I'll definitely be going back to try more tacos. Two tacos were plenty filling too!

As many people in the reviews have mentioned the Korean bbq tacos are a must get. Went to the MKE…read moreNight Market and pleasantly saw this stand. Was one of the last people they took and the tacos came out piping hot and loaded. Chicken was crunchy, the slaw was fresh and whatever sauce they use was super flavorful. My friend also tried the buffalo tacos and said they were also up to par. Would def come back for more or try another flavor.

I had a Red Truck Slider (sans mustard, since I am not a fan) and an order of their Kickin' Fries--the burger was perfectly moist (looked medium/medium well done), the onions were caramelized and delicious, and the bun wasn't crusty or stale (my biggest complaint with burger places). The Kickin' fries were crispy, hot, and good but VERY spicy! Twenty minutes later and my mouth still burns, but it's a very good burn. One slider and fries ($4.50 total) was enough for a light lunch, but I'd suggest ordering two sliders if you're a bit hungrier. Overall, I was pleased. Definitely be back for lunch sometime soon!

It was a very cold and windy evening, so environment was not conducive to enjoying the outdoors…read more The menu is very eclectic, but I two tacos recommended by the chef. Both were good, but I liked the pork better than the chicken. The service for the the truck was good, with good recommendations, but it was cold out so I had to take the food into the bar. That was not great. You can read about that in my next review

Breakfast and Dinner I made my first stop to Taco Moto last…read moreyear for their breakfast offerings and was just shocked at the portion size - their burritos were huge and more than an average person could consume in a sitting. I ended up back for a Taco Ruck with friends this spring and everyone in my group raved about the tacos and corn cup. I've been back again for breakfast and dinner and they always exceed expecations. Service is always super fast with their online ordering and staff is always so friendly. Add in some drinks @ Boone and Crocket on a summer day with the waterfront view and you'll be having a great time!

Your experience will depend on the worker on shift, some are better than others. You'll get a feel…read morefor it pretty quickly, even just walking up you can see that some of the young men assigned here are more interested in flirting than selling hot dogs, in general the female workers are more on the proverbial ball. Some of the workers are more articulate than others, I don't think I've ever heard the F-word as often in food service as I have experienced on occasion here. The dogs are cooked earlier and heated up on the grill as you order, depending on the worker, they can handle one to three customers competently at a given time, if you see more than 3 people standing around, you might want to come back later. Good selection of dogs, brats and sausages on buns, good choice of condiments - they must have 20 different kinds of mustard. No veggie dogs or burgers though. Bike rack right nearby, MATC benches very close make for urban lunch al fresco. They can now take plastic and email your receipt.

I tell you what. 5 stars. Yep. I'm going all the way for this little truck…read more Richard has it exactly right - UNASSUMING. As they say - you can't judge a food truck by its wheels - well totally anyway - and this one has Wheel[z]. Sure this might not be the flashiest of them all, they might not have a person out on the sidewalk luring you in, but boy oh boy - will you be happy you stopped. Spring Rolls. Yep. They make em fresh while you wait. I've gotten the Tofu and it's thin and slightly crispy. The veggies are crunchy and fresh - and did I mention that these things are HUGE! You get 2 for $4... and you think - "Only two!? I might need to order something else!" BUT you will be surprised as these whoppers sure do fill ya up. Today I went all out and got the Crab Rangoon as well. I was real hungry. WOW. I thought they had me sold at the Spring Rolls... but these little guys were the BEST, I repeat, the BEST I've ever had. They were so creamy and fresh. Not overpowered with onion. Just perfect. Perfect I tell ya! So - next time you're out and about and you see them hidden among the rest, do yourself a favor and treat yo'self!

However, the food they produce is some of the best Food Truck Fare that I've had. My favorite item they have is the Stuffed Chicken Wing. They bone out a chicken wing, leaving just the tip which becomes the handle. The meat of the Wing is then filled with Cellophane Noodles, Ginger, Garlic and Scallions! The whole thing is then fried to a Crispy, Golden Brown. I've never said this about Chicken Wings before, but the result is surprisingly light. YUM!!! There are two per order, so they are great for sharing!

But it's right here. In Milwaukee. The cart's cargo bike construction is amazing in and of itself, but the coffee is what gets me out of my office and down the street.

Locations include in front of the U.S. Bank building in the morning and Third Ward at Milwaukee/Buffalo in front of Fashion Angels and Broadway/Buffalo in the afternoon.

He's at every event you can think of and always helping out those who need it. At the earth day celebration he even gave free iced teas to all the bikers powering the stage. His drinks are rather cheap compared to Starbucks and Collectivo, and made with more love and dedication to please his customers. I'd pick Velspresso over any coffee shop out there.
