    Flautas (3) came with a side of beans and rice. Teenager approved.
    Miriam S.

    I've tried this food truck before but forgotten to review their food! We went to a Tucson art fair and there they were, my son was hungry so we went for the flautas. Delicious beef flautas with a side of beans and rice. Great service and cute truck.

    Here is a paper menu they have for you to take!

    I'm glad they finally opened up a physical location, came to grab lunch and the staff were great and the food was delicious as always! Now even closer to work so I'll definitely be stopping by more frequently! Definitely recommend the "chocolate oaxaqueño" especially when it gets back to the colder months!

    Gorditos w Carnitas 2 for $13 (12/1/24)
    Mike S.

    One of the dozen+ food trucks at the Made in Tucson art fair 12/1/24 and the truck we opted to lunch at this year. On the recommendation of the delightful cashier we got the Gorditas ($13 for two) with carnitas as our chosen protein. They are about 5 inches across and (unusually/cool) are split pita-style with all the fixins (refried beans, cabbage, cheese, and meat) inside (see pic). Although on the smallish side for the price they were Delicious! We estimated we were about 4th or 5th in line awaiting our order and that took about 12 minutes before they called our name (not too long given the circumstance). We both loved how the carnitas was lean, shredded, and nicely seared so that it was at once tender but also had some crisp edges.

    Gorditas were fresh and delicious. The prices are very reasonable for downtown. This is going to be a regular lunch spot for me.

    Wonderful dessert…read more This is a fun experience. You choose your flavors and mix ins (zoom in on the truck photo), and your toppings. The sky's the limit! You get to watch the whole process, stepping ladder provided. Nice, refreshing ice cream dessert. I think it is unique to Tucson. I also had a milkshake. Nice and creamy. The photos, except for the truck, were taken at a Yelp event. His mother was working at the truck when I came in today. They are located at The Pit food truck park at 22nd St. and Pantano. Give them a try! 5* = A top favorite. Mind-blowing good. I will definitely return and I will go out of my way to go here. Worth every dime of my money. 4* = Outstanding. Tucson-top-tier. Some elements not quite as good as it gets, but it still is worthy of my regular business. 3* = Good experience. I might do repeat business if it is convenient, the only option, the only one in its category, or on a whim, but would not be among the first thing to come to mind. Would definitely recommend you trying it to get your own take on it. 2* = Not so good. Would not recommend at all. Waste of money. 1* = How are they still in business? Stay away at all costs!

    After attending an event at the Tucson Arena, we were looking for ice cream/dessert and stumbled on…read moreSweet Rolls and More. What a gem of a truck! Not sure if they move around, but we found them in the downtown area. The gentleman manning the truck, was very friendly and nice. It was very unique in what they do, and he took his time preparing our ice creams. They only had enough of the regular ice cream to do one serving, so I got the Vegan ice cream and my husband got the regular. I must say the Vegan was pretty tasty! It was not as creamy as the regular (of course) but if they only have Vegan left, it is still worth trying this unique version of ice cream and mix-ins. I did the brownie/coconut mix in, with chocolate sauce. My husband did strawberry/banana with strawberry sauce and it was +++++!

    I consider myself a regular of this food truck. . I would estimate about twice a month since July?…read moreIt's the best food truck in Tucson currently. Expect devout followers who arrive 30 minutes early and a 20-person line that forms as the truck rolls up (unless you're at some obscure bar on the south or east side that no one wanted to drive to). Nonetheless, this sandwich is worth it. The chicken is so spicy, so juicy, so crunchy, so HOT, and every single time feels like an experience. As in, when you're done eating the sandwich you go, damn, that was good. And for a brief moment, you enter one of those commercial-like moments of happiness, as Deadpool would say. Sure, everyone has their good nights and bad nights. There were times where the buns were too dry. There's been more than once when they were a few minutes late. There were times where they ran out of avocado slaw-- and gave everyone a super discounted price! I don't believe these instances should matter; they're not common. It's a food truck. It's never going to be the same thing over and over, and that's part of the experience. I would post pictures but that's already covered on their Instagram.

    If you're expecting the chicken sandos from the food truck days . I'm sorry these aren't the same …read more I went to the American eats co food venue for some lunch yesterday . Ordered the x hot , barely received any kind of dusted hot powder on my chicken sandwich, the thighs they used have been switched out to chicken breasts which leave a dry consistency. When they had the food truck my husband and I would always find out and scout which breweries that would be up to stand in line for the chicken sandwiches . But since they moved to American Eats the quality has gone down . Save your money.

    Such a fun place for sure. Came for a small team dinner…read more The flaming dinner is the flame of chilies. Delicious stuff and entertaining too. I shared a 18oz steak with my coworker. Rare to medium. Simple little flavor but pure joy of this perfect grilled beef. Side dish's are great too. Other than the peppers on fire, the serious Brussels sprouts were great too. Services were wonderful for us. Very nice lobby for the business dinner. Will come back again.

    During a Mother's Day spa trip for my wife, I wanted to include a nice dinner at a well known…read moresteakhouse! I tried to make reservations at another restaurant beforehand known for their prime rib, but they were booked full. So I reserved this place. Upon our arrival we entered the door on the right hand side of the building. We told them the name our reservation was under and they said it was for the restaurant next door on the left side of the building. It was for the more upscale restaurant as mentioned by the host. They have two restaurants by the same name that sit opposite of each other. I hear their counterpart is just as good. We entered the building from the left and told the host the name the reservation was under. The host wasn't as attentive as she should have been. She hardly even looked as us. We were standing there and she seemed to be busy with something else. No ' it'll be just a few minutes', nothing. She was talking with the other ladies. Finally we were seated. Our server was very nice. We decided on two steak dinners. My wife had the 8oz filet and I got the rib-eye both med-rare. Our steaks look good when we received it. But my steak was served rare! It was chewy and fatty. I chewed for days just to get a single piece down. My wife steak was overcooked to medium. There's nothing worse than an overcooked filet mignon! We don't like sending food back for obvious reasons. We've heard too many horror stories, not to mention I use to work in the food industry. As I mentioned, our server was very nice and attentive as well! She constantly checked on us and my tip reflected that! For a $170.00 bill, our meal was mediocre at best. Thanks for ending my wife's Mother's Day on a sour note!
