I was out and about on the motorcycle, and it had come around to lunch time. Looked around the…read moreMelrose area for something to eat, and let's face it, there isn't a whole lot in Melrose. Sure, there is some (in my opinion) overpriced fried chicken, and a sports bar, but for just grabbing a bite to eat I wasn't up for that. However, down the road a little bit I found the Grove Shack food truck! There is some outdoor seating, and decent weather protection in case of a bit of rain or need of some shade, so I figured I would give it a shot. I just went with a burger and fries, which also comes with coleslaw. The burger was good, with solid ingredients. The fries I believe were from SysCo or PFG, but these days it is hard to find a place that isn't using fries from them, and they are decent fries, so I am alright with that. The only real disappointment I had was from the coleslaw, as it was a bit on the wimpy side. All in all a decent bite to eat, the prices were reasonable, and I enjoyed the experience.

I just happened to be near here and hungry, so when I saw that there were only three people in line, in I went. Everyone ordered quickly, so I was sitting down with my table number, before I knew it! I think I waited about ten minutes, before my food was sitting in front of me. My thin, hot ranch fries begging for ketchup, flanked a tall chicken sandwich that could only be eaten using a napkin wrap! Wow, what a first bite!! Crunchy, hot and delicious! Just as I am getting into the bulk of my lunch, about 20 people ramped into the place! Boy was I happy I got here when I did! Seeing how busy it is here from outside, with the large windows, is a plus! Get napkins and ketchup, before you sit down. They are on a caddy that is hard to miss. Great lunch place, lots of different places to sit, either inside or outside, and worth the trip, wherever you live!

I can honestly say I've had really bad luck in this place. Not only does the service take forever,…read morebut also it is just crappy food. I just think they don't try hard enough, the people working there perhaps are not properly trained, paid or it just comes all the way from the top. I went there to give them a second chance since I had previously tried them about a year ago and I thought the food was not good back then, but maybe since they have been open long enough, maybe it was that one thing I had. Well I was wrong, I ordered just some appetizers, not even a full meal or anything and they took almost an hour to bring it out!! I didn't want to complaint so I just took my food to go and left, but when I got home the mandocas I ordered were terrible, tasted like they just reheated them and didn't even have cheese or nata which is what they should come with, or how they are served in any Venezuelan place you go to. On top of that, I had asked for cilantro sauce for the tequeños, they said it was in the bag, and when I got home they just put garlic sauce in there!! I didn't even eat, what a waste of money and energy to go there. Terrible experience, I don't recommend the headache to anyone, it's just not worthy. Unfortunately.

One side note that some of the outside leaf of the sprouts can have a burnt tang from frying so you might want to take them off. I'm looking forward to trying many more items!
