We had the absolute pleasure of partnering with Sweet Mother 101 for our Black History Month celebration, and when I say they showed up and SHOWED OUT I mean it! We run a tight operation built on efficiency and strict time constraints, so bringing in any outside vendor requires precision. From the moment they arrived, their team was organized, professional, and ready. They managed to serve all of our employees with a smile, even during peak rush, and kept the energy warm and welcoming the entire time. And the food? Sooooo good. Every single bite. There was truly something for everyone, including our Vegans (which, let's be honest, doesn't always happen). The variety they provided made everyone feel included and excited. That thoughtfulness did not go unnoticed. At one point, we experienced a major influx of people and orders started backing up a bit. Instead of getting flustered, their team quickly tweaked their process, adjusted on the fly, and absolutely knocked it out of the park. Watching them pivot so seamlessly while maintaining top-tier hospitality was impressive. I'm beyond grateful that we were able to experience not just their incredible cuisine, but their genuine hospitality. They are truly among the best. Highly, highly recommend. read more

I went to At Ease for trivia night and was excited to see a Nigerian fusion food truck posted up. I absolutely love Nigerian food. There used to be a little spot on Northgate serving authentic Nigerian food, but it unfortunately went out of business during or after Covid, and I haven't been able to fill that craving since. Needless to say, I was excited. I loved that the truck had a screen to order from. It keeps things simple for customers and easy for the workers in the truck. Even then, the workers were fantastic and friendly, the truck itself was nice, and the menu was easy to follow. Good vibes all around. I will say it was a little expensive, but food trucks usually are these days. I also cut them some slack because Nigerian food isn't easy to make. Jollof rice alone can be an all-day affair of stewing. I also won't judge too harshly on authenticity since they label themselves as fusion. That being said, I ordered the bowl, which came with jollof rice (a $2 upgrade, understandable), spiced chicken, fried plantains, a small slaw-style salad, and "sweet mother" sauce. Starting with the jollof rice: absolutely delicious and tasted very authentic. It may have been slightly toned down on spice, but that makes sense for the food truck scene. The chicken was good and had a nice char and seasoning. My only gripe is that there wasn't much chicken at all, probably less than 4 oz. The fried plantains were amazing and one of my favorite parts. Nicely charred, almost bordering on burnt, which I personally like. The slaw-style salad was a nice touch and cut through the richness well, so that was actually a great addition. The sweet mother sauce, while I'm not totally sure what it was, was good but not super memorable. I was maybe expecting more of a peri-peri style sauce, but it did add a small hint of heat, which was nice. I'd definitely grab something from this truck again. At that price point, though, I'd like to see slightly larger protein portions next time and maybe a bit less rice since that made up the bulk of the meal. The flavors were excellent, and you can tell it was made with love. read more

Delicious, so many flavors, very customizable, very happy with my orders. Definitely upgrade to jolof rice if you get a rice bowl. My boyfriend and I have had their food at concerts in the park a few times and it's always really good. I like the vegetarian option, and the grilled chicken option was perfectly cooked. read more

Sweet Mother 101 food truck set up near my work. My first thought was... that's a catchy name and I luv the adorable logo. But what do they serve? I got closer to read the menu... Nigerian fusion! Hmm. I've never had Nigerian food before and the menu sounded appetizing. I thought I'll give it a go. Glad I did! Sure dug my chicken rice bowl which wasn't served in a bowl, more of a rectangular sized to go container. So just saying that because it was a bigger serving size than I was thinking it would be. Step 1 Pick your choice of rice bowl, loaded fries, or wrap (pita). If you pick the rice bowl, you can upgrade to jollof rice for an extra charge. Step 2 Pick your protein. Chicken, steak, and akara which is vegan frittered black eye peas. Step 3 Sauce it up. Pick your sauce. There are four kinds. I chose the chicken rice bowl with the Sweet Mother sauce. The sauce is sweet n savory. Totally delicious. The chicken is thigh meat with a spice rub. It was delicious as well. It had a nice smoky flavor. Tender. The bowl came with slaw and sweet plantains. The slaw was a bit boring flavor wise, but had a nice fresh crunch. The plantains were grilled to gorgeous caramelized color. Looked appetizing but I didn't eat them due to having a food allergy. read more

What an unexpected food experience at Movement Brewery in Rancho Cordova. It was supposed to be a quick drink and bounce, but ended up drinking more, so of course the munchies kicked in. First time hearing about Sweet Mother 101 food truck and my first time trying Nigerian fusion food. I got the chicken wrap with the hilarious sauce name 'I Want Problem'. I love me spicy and this delivered. It really gave me a problem. They didn't skimp out on the ingredients. There was plenty of filling that one wrap was enough to satisfy my slightly buzzed hunger. The flavor was really nice from their warm spice rub, the sweetness from the plantains and the ever so powerful problem sauce. Really enjoyed the pita as well. It was warm, soft and kept the ingredients together as I devoured the wrap. I'm intrigued by their other menu items. I def want to try their rice bowl with jollof rice and of course the kid in me wants to try their loaded fries. I'm happy they are on my radar. Good food, good staff. Hope to see this food truck around the Rancho Cordova area again. read more

Really good food! We had loaded fries with black eyed pea fritters, plantains and honey pepper sauce. All perfectly balanced. We would definitely order from them again. read more

This food truck showed up at work one afternoon, and I decided to roll the dice on lunch. Best decision I made all week. I ordered the beef rice bowl, which comes stacked with jollof rice, fried plantains, and curry coleslaw. Then comes the sauce selection - and I went full throttle with the "I Want Problem" sauce. Outrageous name, outrageous flavor: spicy, sweet and totally addictive. Eating this in my office turned heads. I devoured the whole thing in one sitting and waddled back to my desk in a food coma - but zero regrets. The portion was generous, the flavors are bold, and the plantains are fire. If you see this truck parked anywhere near you, don't hesitate. Just go. And maybe block off a nap afterwards! read more

Sweet Mother 101 - Food Trucks Near Me

Was looking for lunch at work and was headed to one place and decided to check Sacto Mofo to see what food trucks were near. At that time I discovered this place what not far from my job at all. When I arrived there were a few ppl waiting on food and one who was ordering. You self order on the iPad. The food took about 15-20 mins to be prepared. I ordered the loaded fries with steak and the honey pepper and sweet mother sauces. Everything in that flavor wise dish came together perfectly. The plantains were a nice touch. The fries were crispy and the sauce is tomato based so you gave your ketchup. The honey pepper sauce has a kick but not too spicy. I definitely need to return to try the jollof rice bowl! read more

Sweet Mother 101 - Jollof rice bowl with chicken and sweet mother sauce - Food Trucks Near Me

We stopped at this food truck during the Farm to Fork Street Festival and were so excited to try their food. They do tablet ordering and you can pay with card on the tablet or pay cash when your food is ready. We ordered the rice bowl ($20) and upgraded to Jollof Rice (+$2) it was well worth the extra $2 for this flavorful rice! We chose chicken thigh as our protein and their Sweet Mother (savory and rich) sauce. My husband and I split the plate and it was a good amount of food. We felt like the $22 was reasonable for a festival, but if we got this outside of a festival I'd probably want a bit more protein for the price. However, it was so so tasty! The chicken was well cooked and seasoned, the sauce was delicious and the rice paired perfectly with it. The food took a bit from ordering to receiving it, but it came out fresh and hot. We would definitely visit again. read more

What a delight to find something new and flavorful at a food truck! I got the chicken pita with the curry ranch sauce and savored every bite! I wouldn't really call it a ranch sauce though. It's more like a creamy curry sauce. The chicken was moist , flavorful and tender so easy to bite through in a pita. I enjoyed the plantains and slaw as well. Adding crunch and sweetness. The gentleman working there was super friendly and answered all my questions. I am eager to go back and try more dishes. read more

Wow! We tried out this food truck at the farm to fork festival and it deserves to be recognized. I had the chicken bowl which came with rice, plantains, and a side coleslaw and it was delicious! I upgraded to the joleff rice and it was worth it. The chicken was moist and flavorful. The plantains were cooked just right and not too sweet. The coleslaw was fresh and light. Probably one of the best food trucks here in Sacramento. read more

We tried this food truck recently, and I have to say that their food is fantastic! We ordered the chicken bowl, and upgraded our bowl with the joleff rice, and it was well worth it. Ordering is easy, the service is friendly, and the food is out of this world. Exceeded my expectation in every way. I will warn you that it is a bit pricey, but I don't mind spending more when the food tastes great! I look forward to them visiting our neighborhood again! read more

Got the rice bowl with chicken and the sweet mother sauce and then the honey pepper wings. There's so much flavor in the rice, spectacular. The wings with the honey pepper sauce was a real winner too. I was really blown away and hope to see this business do well read more

Sweet Mother 101 - Honey pepper wings and chicken rice bowl - Food Trucks Near Me

At this food truck you have the choice of rice bowl, loaded fries, or pita wrap. You then choose your protein and sauce. I got the rice bowl with chicken and Sweet Mother Sauce. The rice was absolute perfection. The chicken was good. The sauce was new to me. It had a little heat (I'm a wimp) and it reminded me of a red enchilada sauce mixed with curry. The bowl included Cole slaw, which I usually hate. But this was great! It also had a curry flavor to it which was very nice. The rice bowl also came with two chunks of sweet fried plantain. God I love plantains, and these were great. Next time I'll try a different sauce. The Sweet Mother was ok, but I think I might like the Curry Ranch sauce more. To order, you enter your selection into an iPad. It's a pretty cool set up! Certainly more efficient and cost-effective for the business. I will definitely be back. read more

Sorry I forgot to take a before picture, but here is a picture of my chicken rice bowl after I devoured it! The poor man on the truck was working solo so it was a bit of a wait, but he kept his attitude positive and boy was it worth the wait! The Jollof rice was very flavorful on it's own. The plantains were wonderful and I don't usually prefer them. I also don't usually prefer cole slaw, but the curry they add to the dressing takes it to the bext level! I will definitely try again! read more
