The Birria tacos are so flavorful that I only get something else when they are out of those. They also are not stingy with the Birria sauce, best in town with that feature. The Service was fast today. Normally there is a long line of friendly people talking about the food, making the atmosphere fro. If you haven't tried them, check them out. Lately they have shown up in Eastlake. Perfect for me

We met on a warm Sunday afternoon while I was driving by Protective…read morestadium to see how construction was coming along. his food truck sits on the western side of the construction site just north of ASHOF. The menu looked interesting but we weren't hungry at the time. He asked me to pull over and he would give me and my son some samples. We chatted for a few mins then he gave us both a homemade tortilla chip topped with smoked salmon a crawfish tail some roasted corn salsa and cheese sauce. My son doesn't eat seafood. Like at all. He ate tail first then devoured the rest. I did as well. I asked him if he wanted some nachos and he replied Yayyah (Lil Jon voice). So we got some kid nachos. He loved them and I snacked on his left overs which were delicious. When we got home later that evening I started looking for Leo on IG, yelp, etc. I saw he was grilling some patty pan squash topped with fresh Maine lobster. I told my wife he mentioned he made some fire vegetarian nachos so I headed back down to see if could catch him. There were several folks there when I arrived. Picking up slabs and fixins, plus some sandwiches. I saw the prime rib on his IG an it looked so good I had to try a wrap. He grilled up some fresh asparagus to top my wife's nachos as well. Everything was super fresh and delicious. The pepper sauce on my wrap was spicy and the roasted corn and prime rib were tender and smoky. It was an epic portion of food. No I mean seriously the vegetarian nachos could easily be an appetizer for 6-8 ppl. I am really excited to have met Leo and I can't wait to go back. He also mentioned that if I have clothing or shoes to donate his foundation needs them and he would take them there at the truck. I told him I would put a review up on yelp and be back soon. Please check out his social and support and donate to the foundation. 24kchef.leo.

This food truck is mighty delicious! We had the opportunity to try it out during the Sidewalk Film…read moreFest, and i was very excited, seeing as how it is a Vietnamese food truck. I mean, can't get much better than that. We got the Tofu Banh Mi, and it was not only delicious, but very pretty. And they don't skimp on the tofu, either. Nicely spiced and had great sauce. I do wish more veggies had been put on the sandwich. The bread, although quite good, was just a little too dense. You can get banh mi, pho ( I mean come on, how often can you get pho from a food truck?), Vietnamese tacos, and salads. I'd definitely make it a point to search for this truck. Do yourself a favor, and try out this little Vietnamese food truck heaven.

The truck itself is really nice, with bright colors, a large sun visor, and many pictures of menu items decorating it. I really like the variety of drinks and chips they offer, and I appreciate that they are visible to customers. I didn't have to wait very long in line even though it was pretty busy when I arrived, and my food also came out pretty quick! The staff were very friendly and were happy to answer my questions regarding their menu. I got the chicken tacos, and they were delicious! I could tell right off the bat that they put a lot of effort into serving high-quality food full of flavor. I really enjoyed the sauces as well. I wish that their hours weren't so limited, but I can live with it. This is a great place to grab lunch at for a good price!

Additionally, the service was great, and everyone was super friendly. Even though it is a food truck and can get fairly busy, everything was super fresh and prepared very quickly. They offer things like onions and jalapeños to go along with whatever you order, as well as a variety of drinks and chip options. It is a food truck, so the atmosphere is super casual, and there is normally a small crowd, but you likely won't be waiting long. They are located in a super convenient spot, so it is never too much of a task to stop by. Overall, Dos Hermanos is a great choice if you want a quick, affordable, and delicious meal. I will definitely be back! One thing to keep in mind is that they close pretty early, but works perfectly for a nice lunch.

This is the first of 4 food reviews I'll be posting this week. So get your lunch and dinner plans…read moreready. Birmingham Restaurant Week has ended and I am happy I got the chance to try some new places so I can tell you all about them. So let's get right into it. First up is The Lil Bougie Foodie INC. What brought me to them is what I saw written all over their food truck. It said Home of the Bougie burger, so I was very intrigued. So I ordered it after asking what all came on it. I don't fully remember what was all on it and unfortunately I tried to find it only but there is no description of it I could find so I'll do my best here. Like I said I ordered The Bougie Burger (A LA Cart). It had cheese, bacon, tomato, pickles, onions, lettuce, and bougie sauce. Oh and two smashed patties. This burger was good. In my own opinion it was lacking just a touch of season and I wish they had given me more of the sauce on the burger it was like I know it's there but wish I had more of it. Also I was disappointed I received bacon bits on my burger instead of actual slices of bacon (not sure what was going on there). Also on the picture it looks like there burgers were served with White American cheese but I received Yellow American (yes they taste different to me), don't get me wrong I love yellow American so it didn't bother me at all. Anyways this burger was very good would 100% get this again and can't wait to try what else they have on the menu. I give the burger a 8.9/10. If you see this food truck parked and serving gone head and hope in the line with me and everyone else because you are about to eat good! Be sure to follow them on social media too!

I've been to Birmingham a few times and never explored their local food options and decided to…read morechange that. Eugene's has really good reviews so I made this my first stop. And good thing I did! I looked at the menu and honestly wanted to order everything cause it all sounds good. I don't eat much so I went with the two piece chicken tenders kids meal. The lady who took my order said they have a regular chicken tenders meal but I said I wanted the kids meal cause I don't eat a lot. She then said "It's the same amount of food." which, ok cool, but I don't think that should be said cause they can lose out on money. Just my opinion. And FYI, I very often get kids meals cause I really don't eat a lot. Not trying to save money or anything. The meal came with two chicken tenders, sauce, fries and a drink. Fries were good. Nothing to complain about. Those tenders tho.....YUM!!! So much flavor. And the ranch I got with it....yes! Not sure when I'll be in Birmingham again but I will 100% go back and try other items!

A huge disappointment…read more I'd always imagined that fried chicken in the South was better than fried chicken in Omaha. Wrong! The fried chicken at Tracks and Surfside Club is way better than at Eugene's. The cole slaw is also better. My girlfriend is a native of Alabama and she was no fan either. She thought her chicken was tough. I got two different styles of beer and they were tasteless. I might as well ordered a Bud Light. And, of course, the music was way too loud.

I was sooo excited to try Rickshaw! I'd been following them on Instagram for a while and was…read morepleasantly surprised when they pulled up at a coffee shop I was working at for the day. The truck looks great and had different trinkets on the counter for added decor. They also had a sign out that listed their menu for the day. I went with the pork belly sandwich and the loaded potstickers. The sandwich had lots of flavor and I appreciated the fresh slaw, which added good texture. The bread to ingredient ratio was also good, I didn't need to pick off any extra bread that was just in the way. The postickers were also yummy. They were piping hot so I feel like I got a prime experience of all the flavors coming together. I only waited about ten minutes for my order and the Rickshaw team was super friendly and checked to see if I was enjoying the meal and needed a to-go box (which I did...yay leftovers!). This was a fun and tasty introduction to even more Asian cuisine around Birmingham.

It was a bad…read moreexperience .. the event started late, the food wasn't good, the building had no heat on New Year's Day. Just bad all around. I said never again. Fast forward to this week, 7/2024. It was my turn to pick a place for happy hour. I called SKA last Thursday & asked what time happy hour is? The staff replied "Either 4pm or 5pm until 7pm." I asked her to please find out and I'd wait. In response she asked me what time I planned to come. I told her, 4pm. She responded, "YOU SHOULD BE FINE AROUND THEN." I was baffled and just asked for her name and ended the call ... We went to Courtyard 280 ‍ It just so happened that my friends picked SKA for brunch today, Saturday. I'd resolved that I was going for the company and would put all of my past experiences aside. My food experience had been prior the food truck and brick and mortar. So I was open to giving them a chance. I'm so so glad I did! They refer Saturday brunch as a Day Party. It's on the louder end of the spectrum, which is perfectly appropriate for a day party vibe. There was a DJ ... at some point my friend asked, Are they playing GloRilla?!? lol! I'm a fan so it was fine. Our waiter had great energy and he was attentive. The decor is nice. We ordered the mimosa flight. They were good, 4 flavors - strawberry, mango, blueberry, peach - not too sweet. I ordered shrimp and grits. The grits were thick (that's how I like them) and well seasoned. The shrimp was plentiful! was not over cooked at all. There was shrimp in most every bite. I'd recommend this. My friend ordered the fried catfish and grits and said she enjoyed it. The biscuit tasted canned - it wasn't needed though. This was a nice experience!

The fries are frozen shoestring fries but the seasoning was very tasty! I want to try the chicken wings if they still have them whenever I come back to the Pizitz but no rush to get back.
