I tried the food truck lemongrass chicken spuritto. I agree with the other 3-star review that the chicken is mostly bland (no lemongrass flavor ) and it is a lot of vegetables. The peanut sauce was decent to help with flavor. The other dipping sauce was.. flavorless? Was it supposed to be a riff on nuoc mam cham? Confused. Very healthy and fair amount of heft. A bit pricey ( $14 or $15). You might want to pass if you're Vietnamese and attached to some idea of a spring roll or looking for stronger flavors. Otherwise, enjoy the health. read more

The Spurritos were delicious, I love the rice paper wrap, very unique. Looking forward to trying the rest of the menu read more

PaperMill - Fresh Asian Kitchen - Spurritos - Food Trucks Near Me

Tried Spurritos for the first time when they came to my apartment complex this weekend. We ordered lemongrass chicken spurrito and a korean beef spurrito. What I wasn't expecting is that a spurrito is mostly shredded veggies, some meat thrown into and wrapped up in sort of a rice paper. The lemongrass chicken was absolutely bland and the korean beef was extremely salty. I had to take out the salty beef and the bland chicken from the respective spurritos and eat the remaining what was just a salad. Definitely not ordering again as it is just not for me. Giving it 3 stars because even if it wasn't flavorful at all for me, it still made up a healthy and filling dinner. read more

This truck has randomly sprung onto Drexel's campus in the last month and I was intrigued, so I finally took a dive and tried the "spurrito," which is basically a Vietnamese summer roll with other stuff in it, but like a burrito so I'm guessing there's some Mexican flair to it. Pineapple pork, the crowd pleaser, isn't a new flavor combination, but it tasted a bit like al pastor just with the wrong cut of meat. The spurrito came with a lime wedge and a green sauce, that I expected to taste a bit more Mexican than it did, but it nevertheless made the dish. For the price of $9, it was at least worth the money in amount of food. That being said, I don't really think the rice paper is working since it felt so messy at times and since it was wet, it was a rapid death. I'm a little conflicted by the spurrito but I'm a fan of the flavors, so I'll probably give one of their bowls or banh mi a shot later on. read more

A short time ago, in a land far far away (Australia, to be exact), a burrito and a spring roll (of the Vietnamese rice paper wrapped variety) met, got together, probably had a few drinks, went back to the burrito's place, and the spring roll forgot to wrap it up, and so was born the SPURRITO! Aren't mixed babies the cutest?! Especially Asian ones. And for some reason this amazing food truck has picked Philly to expand it's US empire, and I'm so glad it did! The Spurrito, is part Vietnamese spring roll (rice paper wrapper, rice noodles, fresh veggies, pickled veggies, vinegary dipping sauce), part Mexican burrito (size, weight, name), sometimes part Korean (bulgogi filling), sometimes part Thai (lemongrass chicken filling) but all parts amazing. It's super filling but also feels healthy and can be made gluten free or vegan. The truck also serves up fresh salsas and banh mis! Prices are reasonable (around $10 for Spurrito and sandwich, less for chips and salsa). I first saw them at the Chinatown Night Market, and then saw their big colorful truck at Bloktoberfest, too! Check their instagram/facebook/website for where they'll be next, and they're available for catering and private parties too. Welcome to Philly, PaperMill Foods! read more

This is for the W School House location. Dry food with no taste. They do not read the ticket properly. My husband asked for no cilantro on his tacos and they put it on ALL 3! They messed my sons order up as well. They added and ingredient I asked to be left off because HE's ALLERGIC to it. Do not waste your time or money. If there's another truck with different cooks in it then there was today (11/13/22) go to that one. The idea is great. The attention to detail was horrible today. read more

PaperMill has been my favorite food truck in Philly since they started in 2017. They are in University City near 34th St & Market St a few days a week, where I used to work. Spurrito is the staple item, a huge spring roll that looks like a burrito. They also have salad bowls (my favorite) and banh mis with similar ingredients.According to their website, they developed this innovative Vietnamese cuisine in Australia and brought it to Philly. Their recipes are health-ish with lots of greens, though the portion size is quite large. However, portion size is appropriate for their price ($9), which is slightly higher than regular food trucks in Philly. read more

I had the pleasure of indulging in an excellent bahn mi from Papermill Food Truck (a recent Australian transplant) at Love City Brewing a couple of weeks back. It was perhaps the best one I've ever had! It was completely PACKED with garlic seasoned tofu, pickled green papaya, fresh herbs, carrots, cabbage and topped with crispy fried onion bits. All of this goodness was stuffed into a crispy seeded bun that held its firmness. It was incredible tasting and super fresh! Priced just under $10 and absolutely large enough to split! Service from the boys in truck was prompt and friendly. I'm definitely dying to try their famous 'spuritto', a summer roll/burrito fusion. The rainbow one stuffed with fresh colorful veggies looks incredible!! The pineapple fiesta looks awesome too! You can order any of these for just like the bahn mi, with your choice of protein: slow cooked pork, grilled chicken or that yummy sesame garlic tofu. They cater to vegan and gluten-free patrons very well! Their menu seems to be a pleasant mash up of Mexican cuisine with an Asian flare. Very cool! Peep their social media for where to find their truck next! They do deliver via Grub Hub and cater too! read more

I'm a sucker for new food trucks popping up around where I work, and so as soon as I saw this intriguing "spurrito" truck pull up I knew I had to try it. I ordered the pork spurrito, which was incredibly good. The pork meat was really tender and juicy, and the jalapenos I asked for all mixed in with the other veggies (and the pineapple, ugh nothing better than sweet and salty) topped with the green sauce they give you were an amazing combo. The to-go packaging is perfect and a cute way to tote it back to the office for a really filling lunch. What makes a "spurrito" a spurrito is that its got a burrito shape with instead of a tortilla, you get a soft spring roll wrapping. I love fusion food, so I'm all about this honestly. The wait was maybe about five minutes, and the service was great. Kudos, PaperMill! I hope to be back! PS Excuse the huge bite I took out of my spurrito in the photo, I just couldn't wait. read more

PaperMill, you made me happy to be in Atlantic City in the dead of winter!! Super fresh ingredients, delicious food, and such nice people! I'm still dreaming about the tofu salad with spicy peanut sauce. read more

Just as delicious as it is beautiful! I went to the KOP food truck festival on 11/11 and spotted this truck up. I think I ordered the "Eat the Rainbow Spurrito" with pork and avocado. I could taste each individual ingredient in there since everything is so fresh. My "spurrito" filled me up without feeling disgustingly full and greasy. The employees are very friendly and seem to be very happy making their food. I had to take away a star because they charge $2 for avocado. I can get two whole avocados at Produce Junction for $1.50 - come on guys! read more

First food truck I went to at the Hammonton Food Truck Festival. I was really looking forward to it when I saw the menu. The Fiesta Spurrito was fantastic. They didn't have the pickled carrots, but I'm sure that would only add to the excellent flavor. The sandwich was very fresh and they served it up quickly. read more

I had the chance to try their food truck this past weekend. Friend and I both got the Lemongrass chicken Spurrito and it was pretty TERRIBLE! Little to no taste at all, and I am not exaggerating. For 11.50 + I was at least hoping for something tasty. Nope. Got a boring, bland, waste of food. The rice paper wrap is also not good. It adds nothing to the experience other than frustration. Again, no taste but it's also sticky AND chewy so you spend like 30 seconds chewing just to have one bite. Anyway, neither of us liked the sandwich and I didn't even finish mine it was that bad. I'd def. skip this food truck if there are other options near by. You're better off. read more

This food truck is absolutely phenomenal. I had a Pork Spurrito. It was perfect. The flavors were so nice, even my picky Daughter loved it. I would recommend this truck to anyone. The vendors are so friendly and helpful. If you see them check them out. You will not be disappointed read more

The cynic in me sneered when I first heard about this truck: "A 'spurrito'? What the hell is that?" But I was soon proved very wrong when I ordered one for myself. I don't know how I thought that the combo of a spring roll and a burrito wouldn't work, but it DID--delicious and filling to boot. My favorite item on the truck is the pulled pork spurrito. It usually comes with avocado cilantro dressing (and I could drink a gallon of it by itself), and it beautifully complements the pork. Do yourself a favor and add the avocado slice (+$1)--totally worth it. Accompaniments change depending on availability on this truck, so be sure to ask about your favorites when ordering (for instance, JJ likes the rice noodles, but I like the sushi rice, and they don't always have both available). read more

I got the grilled chicken spurrito for lunch and it was.. good. Nothing out of this world but certainly far from bad. I like the concept a lot of mixing the burrito with the spring roll but I think it's just missing something. The sauce given with the chicken spurrito is a Vietnamese dressing which has great flavor but is very liquidy so all of the sauce ends up at the bottom of the burrito. My best bites were at the end with the sauce! I wish they offered different sauce options, something with a bit thicker of a consistency so it will actually stick to the bite you're taking. Also felt like like it needed more chicken to keep up with the amount of veggies. All in all it was a good and healthy lunch, would eat again if I had my own sauce! read more

I often frequent the Porch at 30th St Station for lunch and saw this as one of the new trucks on the new rotation for April, so naturally, I was inclined to check it out. The $9 FOOTLONG Banh Mi was very attractive to me, so I gave it a shot with the chicken. Even though the the line was pretty substantial (~6 people ahead of me), they were very prompt and I was given my HOT food in a little less than 5 minutes. The baguette was toasted and fresh and I was given a very generous portion of chicken. All of the ingredients in the sandwich were very fresh. I hope this tuck becomes a staple to the food truck rotation on The Porch. I'll definitely be returning to try the spurrito. read more

Too many veggies not my taste. Sauce.... but okay. There is an unequal dustrubution b/w the meat and veggies. Looks good, taste weird.

I can't say enough great things about PaperMill. We hired them to cater our microwedding and are so thrilled with the decision. Our friends and family are still texting us about the food -- everyone loved it. Jake and Alex at PaperMill are so easy to work with and customized the menu for our group. We had spurritos, tacos, banh mi and an avocado bowl, in addition to a variety of DELICIOUS apps. I highly recommend hiring PaperMill for your event -- or visiting their location in West Philly! read more

Unfortunately I am not a fan of PaperMill food truck. I am used to the best tofu banh mi's in San Fransisco and these didn't even come close! The tofu was like paste and the only flavors that came through were mushy tofu and heat. I might try something else in the future, but the tofu banh mi was enough for me to not go back for a while. read more

Their new korea taquiera truck is so bad. So disappointing. Visually unappetizing. Minimal understanding of korean food quality or flavors. So sad considering we enjoyed their burritos from the papermill truck. Dont eat at their korean taco truck. So bad. So bad. Please do some research and try again. Learn from people who actually know how to do korean tacos. So lazy. read more

I dunno. These guys were super nice but my spurrito was definitely not a vibrant or delectable bite. I got the chicken with the Thai peanut sauce but really couldn't find the flavor. It's light and bright though so maybe good for a healthy snack. read more

"Best food I've had in ages" - that is what my colleagues were saying when PaperMill catered our staff Christmas party. The gluten-free and vegetarians in our group were given LOTS of delicious choices. Beautifully buffet, great responsiveness when foods ran low, professional right to the last minute. Thrilled to recommend them! read more

I was just visiting Philly for the weekend and walking around killing time. Ran into a brewery and figured I'd grab a bite. The bartender handed me a paper menu and said there was a food truck in the back. Everything looked interesting and the concept of the "spurrito" seemed cool. I went for the Thai chicken and when it was ready, they told me "after you are done, please refrain from coming back and giving us a hug." Strong statement, but they were correct. It was damn good. Great portion, great price, great flavor...totally hug worthy. read more

Omg I had a chicken spurrito at the south street festival and thought it was fucking fantastic.

I would absolutely go out of my way to eat here again. read more

PaperMill Foods is an Asian food truck that can usually be found in University. Known as the "Home of the Spurrito", this food truck takes the concept of a spring roll and merges it with that of a burrito, creating a Spurrito. Although they've only been in Philly for a couple of years, PaperMill is clearly a very popular food truck. I came here last week shortly after 12:00pm and noticed that there was already a large number of guests ordering food. I didn't know much about the Spurrito at the time but knew that this was what I was going to order. I decided to order the Pork Spurrito for $9.00 and even added avocado to it for an extra $1.00. Their menu refers to avocado as the "Millennial Special", so I figured it was right up my alley. Despite the crowds, I only had to wait about ten minutes for my food and was on my way to try their one-of-a-kind Spurrito in no time. What makes a Spurrito unique off the bat is that it's wrapped in rice paper instead of a tortilla. For those unfamiliar, rice paper looks just like a tortilla but is made from rice instead of flour. It's also a bit stickier than a tortilla and holds everything together much better as well. All of their Spurritos are served with a choice of protein and a series of veggies, herbs, and sauces depending on the protein. The Pork Spurrito was huge and had a lot more to it than I was expecting. They slow cook the pork for 12 hours before serving, giving it that savory flavor you typically crave. Along with the pork, you get pineapples and sweet red peppers, two foods that always pair well with pork. I also tasted some cilantro and cabbage, and a sauce that I couldn't quite make out but enjoyed none-the-less. On top of all that, the avocado was another great addition, and well worth the extra $1.00. At the end of the day, this was only $10.00 in total. In addition to pork, PaperMill also has chicken and tofu options to choose from. Like I said before, the veggies, herbs, and sauces vary based on the protein selected, giving no two Spurritos the same flavor or ingredients. If you're not in the mood for a Spurrito, you also have the option of ordering it as a bowl instead or you can give their Banh Mi a try. Although I haven't tried their Banh Mi specifically, their menu makes it sound very good, and gives you the option of ordering it with pork, chicken, or tofu. While PaperMill Foods can usually be found in University City, they tend to roam throughout Philly and its surrounding neighborhoods as well. You can usually find them at the Navy Yard at least once a week, and stop by the Ikea in Conshohocken as well. They tend to participate in a lot of food truck events in the area as well and spend most Saturdays at Wissahickon Brewing Company. The best way to keep track of their location is through their website, which includes their calendar for the upcoming weeks. If the Spurrito sounds interesting to you, PaperMill Foods is a truck that you need to try right away! read more

I had their Tofu Spurrito at the Maple Shade Food Truck festival and it was delicious! Healthy, fresh and tasty. Big portion, but not over-filling. My husband liked mine so much we went back to get him a chicken spurrito. Hope to find them at another Festival in the future! read more

I stopped by the PaperMill food truck yesterday while meeting a friend in Love Park. It was an excruciatingly hot day and I hadn't eaten yet so I stopped by the PaperMill truck to grab a bite and some water. I got a chicken bowl with Vietnamese dressing and sirracha. It was absolutely phenomenal. Usually when you buy bowls or salads from places, you have to mix it your self to make your bites consistent. However, at PaperMill, they make every bite contain every aspect of the salad. The bowl was an amazing mix of sweet, spicy, and overall just stellar flavor! On top of that, they are far from stingy and you really get a lot of food for the price point. It's an absolute steal! I would recommend this truck for something quick, healthy and delicious. Especially on a hot summer day. The owner is nice and the staff handed me my order with a smile. I really wish they expanded to where I live in New Jersey because I could literally eat there everyday. read more

PaperMill - Fresh Asian Kitchen - Grilled Chicken Bowl - Food Trucks Near Me

The food is good, very fresh, and made to order. Great concept, as I love vietnamese summer rolls, except these are jumbo sized rolls! Think of your typical summer roll from a vietnamese restaurant, except 6 times the size. Very fresh ingredients, although with the large size, it's a bit difficult to eat w/o the roll falling apart. I also wish they made some non-spicy sauces, like the hoisin-peanut sauce they have in traditional restaurants. This review is for their food truck location only, as they also have a stationary eatery branch in University city which warrants a separate review for poor customer service. read more

My coworkers and I frequent the Spurrito truck when it is parked on Market st. We love the Banh Mi and Spurrito sandwiches and the various sauces you can put on top! The Spurrito ingredients are always fresh, crisp, and make for a colorful healthy feeling wrap! Service is always super friendly too! We've used them for a catered event as well which went amazing. The platters looked appealing, we were provided with plenty of sauces and the quac and chips side order was a perfect addition! The price was completely reasonable for the amount of food we ordered, I highly recommend them for your next catered event! read more

Tried to order the green curry Bahn mi, but they were out of green curry sauce. Fine. Ordered the Thai basil instead with tofu. They were also out of jalapeños. Fine. Waited 15 minutes for the sandwich. Fine. But then I bit into my order and it was honestly horrible. The tofu was completely unseasoned and not even pressed, so it leaked tofu water all over the bread, making it soggy and splitting open my sandwich at the bottom. Any bread that was still dry was pretty flavorless and soft--not your typical crunchy Bahn mi baguette. The "creamy" avocado dressing was also not creamy at all and actually just looked like vinegar. In fact, it tasted like the whole sandwich was doused in vinegar and as I was eating it, a clear liquid was leaking everywhere. Overall I couldn't even eat the whole thing without feeling sick to my stomach from the overly acidic taste, unseasoned tofu, and water-logged bread. While this place claims to be vegan friendly, I'd definitely skip it as a vegan or vegetarian because clearly they do not know how to prepare tofu (or anything else for that matter). Gross. read more

PaperMill Food was the perfect way to create a healthy, safe wedding! We wanted to have a way for our guests to have individually wrapped and served food so that we could have an outdoor wedding in October 2020. PaperMill accommodated everything from providing health checks for the employees, following COVID safe procedures, and checking in with us every step of wedding planning. The staff was friendly, professional and a delight to work with! We went with four different types of tacos so that all types of diets from vegans to weigh watchers could enjoy the food. They even removed all bell peppers from their set up that day to ensure our best man (with a severe bell pepper allergy) had no problems. My husband now talks about eating their food at least once a week and we hope post-pandemic we can get out to enjoy more spurritos! read more

I just wandered over to this truck on my lunch break and could not be more delighted. Head and shoulders better than the sushi burrito! The spring roll burrito is where it's at -- got the pork. Very fresh, with lots of different veggies -- delicious, perfect portion. I love seeing options that are veggie centric (and gluten free, probably, I didn't ask but it's rice noodles...). Please park in front of my office every day, magical food truck! read more

The absolute best fresh rolls you will ever eat. The sauces are all prepared fresh and are bursting with flavor.

You must try It if you are in Philly! read more

I've been following PaperMillFoods on IG for a while and was SUPER hype to finally check them out recently. I checked the hours that morning and knew they were supposed to be on Drexel's campus until 3. I went around 2:30 and was told they were out of spurrito ingredients because they were "closed". They said I could still get a bahn mi so I ordered one with pork. They really made it same like they were doing me a favor by serving me. I get that food trucks run out of ingredients but it was a very off-putting experience. There were two people on the truck, and I was the only customer there waiting, but it took 15 minutes to put together the bahn mi. Onto the food itself. It definitely did not live up to expectations. I'm a big fan of bahn mi and this one really missed the mark. The pork was dry and didn't blend well with Vietnamese flavors. I definitely wouldn't order it again. I'd ultimately like to try the spurrito but I'm really in no rush to go back after this experience. read more
