    Crispy chicken sopapilla
    Oliver H.

    The company I work for hired this food truck and it didn't disappoint. All funny jokes regarding the naming aside, the food was delicious. There was a limited menu but the crispy chicken sopapilla was great. The chicken wasn't really crispy since there was a layer of a tartar like sauce on top but the meat was cooked well, the pickle spear was very generous, the slaw was fresh, and the sopapilla was also fresh and fluffy (reminded me of a naan). The service was friendly and quick, got my food within a few minutes of ordering. Would definitely revisit if I saw them again in the future!

    Steak and Cheese

    Too much stuffing - said no one ever! Stopped by Papi's at the cambridge food truck festival and tried their steak and cheese. The shell was warm (pita like consistency but softer) stuffed with lettuce, shaved steak and topped off with a really great cheese sauce! Solid value for the price. They also have Sopapillas for those looking for something on the sweeter side.

    Al Pastor

    Paid this truck a visit during the 2017 Salem Food Truck Fest! I'm glad I did! Papi's... welcome to my list of all-time Massachusetts favorites. I'm the foodie in the family... which means I am the one who ventures out to try more unusual options. Still, I saw this truck, turn to the fam and say: I have never heard of Sopapillas before. Well, we were at the festival to explore and had to try these. The sopapilla is a fried "pocket" of bread, stuffed with, in this case, deliciousness! Had the opportunity to try the Al Pastor (marinated pork) and the Bulgogi (which was very similar to beef teriyaki). At first, I thought Bulgogi was a misnomer, but research showed "bulgogi" simply means: thin, marinated slices of meat, grilled. Now, if you read my reviews, you know one of the things I am always blabbering about is balance...and these sopapillas hit the nail on the head! Let's start with the breading: the "pocket" itself was delightfully thin and fried perfectly. For dough that's fried, it wasn't dripping in oil and was neither soggy nor crisp as a potato chip. In light of this consistency, it holds all the ingredients spectacularly well being as thin as it is. In terms of the filling: They did not skimp on the meat! Neither the Al Pastor nor the Bulgogi was facing a tragic shortage of meat. At the same time, it was not overloaded to the point where nothing else was allowed to shine. The meat was tender, hot, and flavorful! Compared to the many times I have had something "Al Pastor" in other places, this was on point. Likewise, with the bulgogi, I have tried multitudinous different teriyaki sauces in an attempt to perfect my own, and the sauce they use is one of the best. The veggies are fresh and crunchy. They added a whole new dimension of flavor, whose fresh crunchiness beautifully contrasts the meat. Absolutely looking forward to finding this truck, and paying it a visit again (and again)

    Bulgogi Rib Eye

    In my office, we call Wednesdays 'Sopapilla Wednesday' because that's when the Papi's truck is at City Hall Plaza. The way my coworkers talked about these sopapillas, my expectations were pretty high and of course I Yelp'd them beforehand. These handmade stuffed pockets of deliciousness were not a let down. I was nervous to get the Bulgogi Rib Eye Sopapilla given mixed reviews about the quality consistency, but the pocket I received was delicious and warm on the inside while crunchy on the outside. The kimchi slaw perfect but I wish it was mixed throughout the pocket, not just sitting on the top. I have had a sweet stuffed sopapilla as well. I wanted the Banana Nutella with Whipped Cream but they didn't have anymore bananas so they were willing to accommodate me and let me have a Nutella, Fluff, & Whipped Cream sopapilla instead. SO GOOD because the warm inside of the pocket melted everything to a perfect gooey consistency. Wolfed it down in 5 minutes and shamelessly got a little whipped cream on my jeans.

    Papi's Sopapillas was nearby at an event I was attending so I decided to try them out. The que was quite long so I decided to come back after the que was shorter. Unfortunately, this was a mistake on my part as the savory options were depleted upon my return. With limited sweet options, I went with the doughnut style sopapillas. A sopapillas is essentially a fried pastry. This "doughnut" sopapillas was a fried piece of dough, with a simple syrup dressing and topped with crumbled Oreos. And I checked and they were indeed Oreos and not Hydrox. The sopapillas itself is chewy, a little rubbery, hot off the grease and has a fried doughy, oily taste. However, the syrup is slightly coarse in texture and has a slight staleness. This dessert was very uninventive not only in presentation but also taste. I really would have appreciated if they could have gone the extra mile and make the Oreos from scratch. But honestly, the Oreo is completely out of place here. The sopapillas itself has a bland oily flavor, so combining that with the Oreo cookies and the syrup creates a muddled flavor. I'm getting the cheap cocoa taste of Oreo cookie, combined with the sweetness of the Oreo filling, stale syrup, and the oily taste of the fried dough. This is not really a satisfying dessert. I would have preferred if they just gave me a piece of fried dough with some powdered sugar. Forget the Oreos and syrup. Maybe the nutella sopapillas is better, but I can only speak for the one I ordered. I understand this was towards the end of the night and they were out a lot of food, but that doesn't excuse having a menu item that is sub-par. I would not recommend ordering this menu item if you visit Papi's.

    Bulgogi With Kimchi Fusion (unstuffed) - April 2018
    YC L.

    Checked out this new food truck around the South Station area because it looked like delicious hot pockets! We didn't know what Sopapillas were but I'm glad that we tried it! Sopapillas tastes like a fluffy fried dough and this food truck would use it like a pita bread. Average food truck price and it's quite delicious! Definitely a treat once in a while - i highly doubt that it's very healthy. Bulgogi With Kimchi Fusion (unstuffed) - it came with chips and coleslaws. I really loved the coleslaws and the bulgogi, but the kimchi wasn't marinated for long enough. You get more food with the unstuffed version but it definitely takes away the Sopapillas experience. I would recommend getting this stuffed.

    BULGOGI KIMCHI FUSION

    Delicious!! My coworkers and I love Papis stuffed sopapillas I think we've started a lunch time tradition. BULGOGI KIMCHI FUSION STEAK AND CHEESE (that homemade papi sauce) NUTELLA BANANA FLUFFER NUTTER And they OVER STUFF the hell out of those sopapillas. So definitely go hungry lol

    That is not kimchi and that is not bulgogi. It's a mouth full of salt and pepper flakes.

    I was really excited about the bulgogi stuffed sopapilla with kimchi slaw. I grew up eating bulgogi and make a sandwich similar to this. What I ended up with was a sopapilla stuffed with over cooked and heavily salted meat and bland cabbage with pepper flakes. I think cream cheese was in there somewhere? Couldn't taste it but the salt was pretty overpowering. Other than salt and a little heat from the pepper there was nothing else to taste. This was incredibly disappointing and it seems like no one at this food truck has ever tasted bulgogi or kimchi.

At the end of 1 month we reached out to them and shared a list of each positive benefit directly or indirectly related to hiring them as personal chefs. I would like to share this list with you (reader of my review): 1. My husband and I spend more time together. 2. We portion control better. 3. We work out more (have time to work out). 4. We feel better: less groggy, less irritable, more energy. 5. The food they make tastes flavorful, wholesome and satisfying. We get to eat our favorite cuisines with less of the sugar/salt and more grain/vegetable variety than what we know how to cook. 6. We waste less. 7. The brain space we wasted thinking about what to eat, what to cook, when to go pick things up, crap-I-forgot-an-ingredient --- Poof! Gone. Which, working full time while part time grad school, any and all brain space I can allocate to my work is priceless for me. From Week One: Flexibility with schedule and menu planning was made easy for us - We come home and our kitchen tools and pans lovingly (and somewhat expensively) acquired over time are clean - There are delicious dishes made with quality ingredients ready for devouring in the fridge.
