Loved the location, loved the food, loved the vibe. Loved it all!…read more Starting with the location: It was a beautiful sunny day in a tucked away spot in Manitou when we came to Tava. I have to say, as a food truck, I know you roam, but it's picturesque for you when you're in manitou. But really Tava could be anywhere and I'd come. Food: The food was fresh and cooked to order. Comes with the territory I would assume when you order from a food truck? Admittedly I don't do it often, but apparently I need to. We received the fearless goddess sandwich, a peach smoothie, a berry smoothie and their soup special the tomato bisque. Oh! The fearless goddess came with a side as well so we got the sweet potato fries. The sandwich had fresh jalapeños on it and it added the perfect kick of spice needed to break up how decadent the sandwich was. The sweet potato fries were crispy and the aioli was a great addition to dip them in. The smoothies were refreshing and tasted of real fruit. Don't at me, I've had many a smoothie that tasted artificial. The soup was perfect for my daughter, she loves soup of all sorts. It was warm and cozy. We eat soup all year long in my house hold so I was happy. We enjoyed the seating area outside that had misters going to help cool things down as well. It was a very chill place to watch dogs play across the street at the park, catch some sun and enjoy some great food. This is a solid spot for either lunch or dinner honestly. Your choice.

After biking by the Tava Truck many times and not having opportunity to stop, I finally went there…read morefor a late lunch. Service - super friendly, with a smile! The Fearless Goddess sandwich - so this event was advertised as being on the healthier side... this sandwich is more on the killer-delicious side. Crisp fresh toasted bread, just the right amount of cheese (plenty but not swimming in cheese grease), tender chicken and tasty sauce...mmm, good. It's huge (for me, anyway), so I enjoyed half and saved the other half for lunch the next day, which was just right. The berry smoothie - another win! It's not cloyingly sweet, and the yogurt and berries had plenty of tang. Creamy yum. I also saved half for the next day, in the freezer, and it thawed just fine. The soup - sandwiches come with a side, so I chose the tomato basil bisque. It was more creamy than veg-tomatoey, and needed a hit of pepper. Not my favorite ever, but my daughter inhaled it. It's enough for a lunch on its own, or in two portions as a side. Overall - pretty good stuff and I will probably head back to try more of the offerings here. It's a solid choice in Manitou!

Ecstatic that we stumbled upon the Mateo's food truck at a local market - it's been a LONG time since I've found a good Philly cheesesteak. High quality bread, deliciously spiced thin sliced beef, caramelized onions and bell peppers, and the perfect amount of cheese. Yum! Gonna be chasing this truck down from now on

BF Chew Chew stopped by my office today. They have a straight forward menu and are Food Network…read more"Food Truck Fan Fight" Champs! This peaked my interest and I had to check them out. First off, service is friendly and efficient. I ordered a "Korean Bulgogi Steak" Taco and a "Kracken" Taco. I got my order within about 10 minutes. The ordering experience was great but the best was yet to come. I dove into the "Kracken" first. Great taste! The taco consisted of Togarashi Fried Calamari, Tropical Slaw, Krack Sauce and Green Onion on a locally sourced flour tortilla. Great crunch and the Calamari was cooked to perfection. Definitely, would have this again. Next, I tried the Korean Bulgogi Steak Taco. It was exactly the flavor I expected. Little sweet with a little heat. This taco consisted of Bulgogi Marinated Steak, Ponzu Slaw, Green Onions and Sriracha. Once again, the taco does not disappoint. Great flavor and the kick of Sriracha is spot on to round out the flavors. This experience only makes me want to try the rest of their menu. I recommend you follow them on Facebook and track them down in Colorado Springs. This place is a "must try" in my book.

The Mahi Mahi was also flavorful and tasty! We also ordered the Fish and Chips. I'm interested to know if they are fresh or frozen. They were moderately good. Great tartar sauce. I will definitely be following this truck around like a groupie.

El Chapin's burger tastes just like a Five Guys burger with an even better patty…read more The burger itself is a bit of a mixed bag. I found the patty to be juicy and the burger sauce adds a nice creamy tang. The burger was a bit on the wet side, some from the grease and some from the toppings. The bun absorbs some of that and makes it a bit soggy. There are two big slices of cheese on the double cheeseburger and it's a bit too much on the cheese to patty ratio. Very similar to a five guys burger in terms of cheese and bun. The fries are a fresh cut that comes with a side of burger sauce. The fries, being fresh cut, aren't super crisp and are greasy. The side of the burger sauce is a great addition that makes these subpar fries good enough to eat. Okay burger and would be interested in trying the tacos.

(possibly only available because the rain was coming) There was a rainbow in front of us and a foraging deer behind us. While perusing the menu for vegetarian options, I noticed the poblano chile entree, stuffed with mashed potatoes. That seemed so weirdly bizarre that I ordered it, asking our super friendly server if it was good while doing so. "Yeah, it's good," she said with a glazed look, as though she was dreaming of a life where there are no tourists. Or stupid questions. Or no reason to endure mindless chitchat and can you just state your order so I can get on with my night. Anyway, I was happy for her endorsement because it was delicious. Same for the grilled veggies and Mexican slaw that accompanied it. My wife loved her shrimp tacos. We both can't wait to go back, next time we're in the area, being tourists and all.
