Had a smash burger craving and found this place on google. As GTA-ers, food trucks in a parking lot…read morewith picnic tables is a relatively new thing for me. Kinda feels like a semi-permanent establishment. Smash Daddy Burger - A double patty of flattened beef was delicious. It was a melange of flavours that worked very well. I wish the patty was more crispy so that there is more texture in the patty. Naked Fries - The spiced fries were one of the best fries I've had. Fries were super crispy with fluffy interior. There was a good amount of seasoning on the fries making it tasty in flavour and texture. Would come back just for this!

Food truck in parking lot…read more Smash burger very tasty. A bit greasy, but doesn't take away from it. Two patties well smashed. Love the crispy brown look. The fries are nice and crispy/crunchy and come seasoned. Very friendly staff/owner? Serves food to the small patio area, and checks in with patrons on how they find the food. I would come back again.

This place has two locations. The OG is in Wellington West across from where the old Canadian Tire…read moreused to be. I've been going since I was a kid and there is no better french fry. They are not there all year - usually start in late April / May. No skins (a must for me). Double cooked. Soft inside. Crispy outside. Sunflower oil - so less oily taste. Perfection. Pair it with a pogo and your heart won't thank you but your soul will. There's another location, ironically or maybe intentionally, in the parking lot of the Canadian Tire in Kanata across from centrum. Chips there seem to be the same. I just have a fondness for the original location.

Inside the establishment is smaller than I'd expect with a couple of tables tightly knit together. Expect close seating and small tables. They also get busy, but take reservations. Asada fries - Lots of fries, crispy and loaded with toppings. The veggies, pico de gallo and salsa all come together nicely to balance out the cheese and fries. There was so much toppings that the last fries were eaten before the toppings were finished off. Taco de Carnitas - Proteins felt a bit dry and lacked sauce to back up to dryness. Big portion, but for $8.... its a bit steep. would not recommend. Taco de Carne Asada - A good portion for a single taco, but as with the other taco $8 is a bit too much for just one. This time proteins was more juicy and you get a hint for carmalization from the charred meat. Tacos not worth. Would come back for Asada fries but add protein. WIll try the wings (they look stacked) and maybe a torta.

I've been a loyal follower of the Torta Boyz since they first opened up as a food truck and have…read morealways been impressed and satisfied by their food. Their brick and mortar home serves the same classics that they had at the truck and then some. Their menu has expanded to include some appetizers, tacos and cocktails. The prices have gone up but worth the money since it's probably the best mexican food in Ottawa. The fish tacos we got were made fresh and dressed with plenty of fresh, sour, creamy pairings. The Asada Fries are as good as ever. A mountain of guac and dressings and super crispy fries. Got the pastor torta this time around--this was the only thing I thought could use a bit more acidity since the meat was generous but a bit heavy. The tuna tostada is my new favourite. it was fresh, bright, spicy and as always, all the textures. Service is lovely.

TL;DR/The Short Version: Food truck serving Egyptian street…read morefood. The Koshary was great. The rice pudding was the best rice pudding I've ever had in my life! The Long Version: I learned about Egyptian Corner on Reddit. I do not know of any Egyptian restaurants in Ottawa as of the writing of this review. Once upon a time there was the Pharaoh's House on Rideau, which I tried and liked, but they have long closed down. Then Vardera Cafe and Lounge out in Stittsville served an Egyptian menu on certain days of the week, but I never got the opportunity to try their Egyptian food before they also closed down (their regular menu was great, so I was really disappointed they didn't last). So I was really stoked to hear there was a food truck serving Egyptian street food. The first time I had Koshary was at La Folie du Koshary in Montreal on St Mathieu (it too has closed down) and I loved it! I also had Om Ali for the first time there too. It was 8 years ago and I still dream about that Om Ali. I was hoping to get the same things at Egyptian Corner. They had Koshary, but didn't have Om Ali (bread pudding) but had Roz Bel Laban (rice pudding) instead. Let's just say I am now dreaming about the rice pudding at Egyptian Corner! The Koshary ($8) was a good size and served in a paper bowl. It had pasta (spaghetti, macaroni and ditali), rice, lentils, and chickpeas in a tomato-based sauce and was topped with crispy fried onions. It was so delicious. My husband and I shared it, but I easily could have had my own, lol. It came with 2 sauces in small solo cups, a yellowish garlicky water and a red oily emulsion. I didn't use either because I thought it was tasty as is and I didn't want it oily or too wet. My only complaint is that the Koshary was not hot, it was room temperature. It would have been next level tasty if it was hot. The rice pudding ($5) also came in a paper bowl, albeit a smaller one than the Koshary. This rice pudding is the best rice pudding I've ever had in my life! It was so creamy and not too sweet. It was topped with a scoop of Ashta and sprinkled on top was crispy vermicelli and crispy phyllo pastry pieces. Omg! So tasty. I now have another dessert to haunt dreams. Lol. Luckily the rice pudding was chilled and not room temperature. Service was courteous and quick. The food truck is parked on the Jiffy Lube lot at Bank St and Riverdale Ave. They have a few tables and chairs immediately in front of the food truck if you want to eat on-site. We took it to go and ate it while walking along Bank St. Their menu is small. They have Falafel sandwiches and Fava bean sandwiches in addition to Koshary and the rice pudding. I cannot recommend this place enough! If you like Egyptian rice pudding or Koshary, or want to try it, you need to try Egyptian Corner. Thank you random stranger on Reddit for posting about this new food truck! (169)

The portion is quite large and was more than I could finish on my own. There was a good amount of cheese and other options as well! I wasn't a huge fan of the gravy as it was very thin and not overly flavourful, also the bacon was quite hard and chewy, as though it had been pre-cooked and sitting out for a while! Not life-changing but good for some quick comfort food!

I ordered the 3 tacos that comes with a canned drink or a bottled water. Shrimp, Mahi, and chicken were my taco choices. Upgraded $ for the first two making it just under $22. Great service at the window and only a few minutes to wait. Tables in the shade. Opened the box. These are fully loaded! Asked for the ghost pepper sauce to complete the plate. I like it hot! I tried the shrimp taco and it made me want to dance. So good. So juicy. I ate a few pieces of the chicken meat. Owner came up to me asking me how it was, wanted honesty. I told him exactly what I said above. Well, he said 'you have to try the pork'! Wow! GET the pork! Even more juiciness! I had plenty to take home and I'm so grateful I found this place.

The menu is a lot simpler, and they are just selling tacos, churros, chips and gauc and some drinks. The hubby and I both got a set of 4 tacos each and a side of churros. I ordered 3 fish and one vegan, but they packed in a beef one instead. I don't eat beef, so my loss, and hubbies gain. The hubby got a fish, jerk, beef, and pork. He loved them all, but was meh about the beef, as it was not as colorful looking as the rest. I thought all my fish tacos were fantastic. The tacos also came with lemon, and lime and a side of hot sauce, which was super flavorful and not too hot. I wanted to try the chips and gauc but they were sold out. Churros delish and I really enjoyed the chocolate sauce for dipping. It would be awesome if they had a caramel sauce as well. Opening up the new sleek black packaging made me extremely happy as well. The tacos were so bright and colorful. Seriously, go look at the pics I uploaded of the tacos...WOW! Everything was packed with so much care. This would have been a solid 5 star for me, but again, they gave me a beef taco instead of the requested vegan taco. 4.5 stars.

They have a daring menu with many different styles of food from many cultures, and they do it so effortlessly. This week, on my way home from my lunchtime swim, I stopped in for some singapore noodles, which I was craving. I waited 5 minutes and my favourite dish was handed to me with a compostable fork and chopsticks. I had enough food to last me not one, not two, but three lunches-- all for $20. Amazing. The bbq pork was cut razor thin and perfectly flavoured, and there were delicious chunks of egg and chicken that delighted my palate in every bite. THe curry in the noodles was scrumptious. I highly recommend this place - it's a little out of the way from Chinatown, but if you're in the downtown core, it's well worth a visit.

This food truck is nestled on Yahoo Park ( say what!?) next to a baseball field. No wonder I couldn't find it. Pearson Street is one great discovery.

It was a little too wet for my liking, but that's my only complaint for the wrap. The fries were good too, but a little darker than I like. The Chicken Bites though we're perfect! I love that they use lean breast meat. We got 8 good sized pieces. I chose the Maple Jerk sauce and it was phenomenal. Sweet and spicy! It had a real kick to it. I want to try the Jerk Chicken Tacos next. Service was friendly. My wait for the food wasn't too long. They only accept cash. They are located in the Jiffy Lube parking lot on Merivale Rd.
