    walk-up view to food truck - Halal Indian & Pakistani Cuisine
    Amber L.

    Swung by here the other night (a Tuesday) at 9:30p to grab dinner after seeing a comedy show at The Creek and The Cave nearby. The owner was the supa kind, warm gentleman in the food truck working who personally helped me. He was very patient with me, as i was indecisive about what to order since i was starving & literally everything sounded increíble. (i don't remember his name, but i will get it my next visit and update this review!) He suggested the chicken tikka masala, and i couldn't have been happier! it was scrumdiddly-umptious! hot and fresh. fulfilling and satisfying. quality, authentic indian food on-the-go, pronto, folks. i had leftovers as i get full fast, and the leftovers heated up fine & still tasted yummy - and i hardly ever say that about leftovers! if i were to give one critique/area for improvement: i personally feel the chicken to rice ratio was a little off, and would have liked ~2-3 more pieces of chicken. Will be returning to try out their paneer rolls and samosas! Definitely my fav indian/pakistani food truck i've tried thus far in #atx !

    After hitting up some bars and wanting some drunk food. There really weren't too many options; going midweek and during COVID certainly meant a lot less activity so Taste was basically the only option during my visit. I got the kabab roll with all the sauces. You know what? It wasn't bad, especially for post-bar food it hit all the targets: greasy, flavorful, handheld and slightly messy. I was warned that the spicy sauce would be much but it was fine. I don't know what the other options at the food truck park was but Taste from India seems as a good a stop as any other options there.

    The best chicken Samosa I have had since I moved to Austin. Super crunchy and flavor. I will come back to try other food from the menu.

    More like Waste From Indiana. This place was a disappointment. It wasn't awful, we ate it in the car and it was pretty wet which I liked, but it was lacking Spice, and the flavour was much too mild and the chicken too dry for me to really enjoy it. It cost a little much too, and showed again that Austin's late night food truck scene is not as good as it's daytime food trucks. Sure, there are a few good ones, and for me this wasn't really one of them.

    The food was delicious and was filled with lots of flavor. Affordable pricing as well as big portions for leftovers. The man working was also very friendly and happy to know how we liked the food. Would come back! & deff worth a try (: -Visiting guest from California

    Stopped by late night on a Saturday night for some Indian food. Went with the chicken tiki masala. I haven't had Indian food since my stay in India, so I was beyond excited. To my surprise it wasn't the best food I've had with my stay here in Austin. With all the other surrounding food options there you might want to check out something else.

    Chicken curry
    Laura H.

    3 nights in a row we've stopped here; had the tikka masala and the giant veggie samosas the first night, the chicken curry the second night, and the chicken biryani the third. Everything is authentic, and appropriately spiced. The service is quick and sincere; whether it's 11:30 and just into the night or 2:30 and almost closing time, they're quick and thorough- everything is seasoned and cooked wonderfully. I HIGHLY recommend

    My friends and I wandered here after an agonizing night of karaoke. I only call it agonizing because I was taught how to properly "twerk" which is something I never thought I'd know how to do and is EXHAUSTING. Thanks a lot, Kat. We were searching for some food truck, but unfortunately many of them were already closed. The people working the truck were a little cold. They weren't rude exactly, it just seemed like they didn't care at all. I was one of the first to order and I was the last to receive my order. The food was fine enough and reasonably priced. I've had better kababs in town with much better service. My kabab was really messy (they can be anywhere, but this one was a little difficult in that respect). That said, it was still pretty good. I'd say you're okay to skip it and head to another place, but if you're nearby and in the same situation of late night "oh, no! everyone is closed!" it's a more satisfying option than the 24 hour fast food places.

    Spicy chicken masala
    Diana H.

    Best Indian food truck that I've ever had... Chicken tikka masala: (5/5) very flavorful and filling. For the price, you definitely get a bang for your buck. My friend and I were stuff with sharing one. This probably wasn't your typical chicken tikka since that is more dry but I feel as though this was definitely better. Make sure you ask for it spicy!!! It wasn't overwhelmingly spicy but it gave a great kick. Great for when you're trying to sober up or before drinking :) Would I Come back? Lol, I did... In the same night :)

    Grace H.

    Hands down the best the best Indian food I've ever had. The chicken briyarni is amazing I had to have it every night I was in Austin after a night full of drinks. The best!

    Spicy lentil curry #4
    Chris C.

    It's a food truck, it's our doors, right off 6th about a block, and it's convenient. That's what you get. Now the food was actually pretty good I ordered the Spicy #4, it's a little on the expensive side, about the same price as 2 slices of pizza... The #4 was good, no cheese but a lot of flavor, I would like a little less oil but that's my preference. It sat well on the plate though, a bed of white rice, some onions, tomatoes, lettuce and some lentil curry. It's ideal for the space.

    The #8 biryani was just salty. The meat was too much salt. But it was ready fast, and there was enough food for two meals.

I prefer the mini but they're sold out a lot which shows you how spectacular this place is. My go to is the nutty valentine. The donut is always warm, fresh, and crispy. And the toppings of Nutella, cinnamon, and strawberries adds dimension & the perfect story. There is plenty of patio seating and lots of parking outside. There can be a line on the weekends and they tend to sell out so keep that in mind. The staff is friendly and service is quick!

    Doughnuts made to order out of an airstream, you say?…read more Looks like they used to offer mini versions but that side of the menu is all mask taped over. When we went our choices were $9-$10 donut base desserts. I say base because the toppings cover up the donut visually. Despite that, there's no covering that scrumptious taste and texture. Wowaweea. Yes, you feel your cells expand and pants tighten and it is for sure run club pre and post, but quite worth it. These divine donuts have that cakey interior I love so much. We had the Puddin': cream cheese icing, vanilla pudding, fresh bananas with nilla wafers. According to the menu. Ours didn't have any nilla wafers and the presentation was uneven, hence the four stars. I didn't miss the wafers. The icing and pudding were one goopy topping and the bananas slices were half scattered slices and half banana chunk that I had to separate. Side notes: Gourdough sits on a corner with parking spots that are not free. There's a pay via QR code so you'll need a phone or something to scan that. Boo for digital shackles. Next note- I feel like this is a low key meet up spot. Like the way they tried to make the first train cars on the MTA the singles car? There was a series of singles getting doughnuts and they were a little done up for the occasion. Who knows. With the little IG ready love seats and doughnuts made for sharing, you could walk away with extra sugar.

This tastes like it came straight out of someone's granny's kitchen in SPAIN. D E L I C I O U S. The menu isn't all vegan, but they've done an incredible job offering both traditional and vegan versions without losing any soul. Am I in heaven? Yes. The owner makes it a point to connect with customers, which was refreshing. You can tell this is passion-driven. You order via QR code at your table, then pick up out back when it's ready--easy. Everything is prepped daily in a Commercial kitchen and finished on the truck, and he proudly shared that the ingredients, spices, even the meats are sourced from Spain. Vegan paella? Incredible. Patatas bravas with vegan aioli? My personal favorite, sooo good. My husband loved the jamón serrano sandwich. And whatever you do, don't skip the sourdough rye with tomato spread. They also mix in a few Belgian items to match the bar, which adds to the whole European vibe. I already need to go back for the vegan fideuà and bombas..they were sold out, which tells you everything. Do yourself a favor: try this spot and support a small business that's clearly fueled by passion and flavor. Yum.

The croquetas and bravas are the best in Austin - better than Kalimotxo, San Gines, and El Raval. They were extremely delicious and the perfect texture and size. The paella was about as good as you could expect from a food truck. The tortilla was our least favorite - taste was good, but wasn't as liquidy as you'd expect in Spain. Overall, the food was great. We would definitely go back! Thank you for keeping this Spanish food authentic.

Not lukewarm. Cold. I bit it a second time because I genuinely couldn't believe it. Meanwhile, the rice was so hot it was still visibly steaming from what I can only assume was a microwave, drowned in a watery gravy I never asked for, next to the old cabbage with solidified liquid. I brought the plate back to the counter, explained the chicken was refrigerator cold, and asked them to reheat it. I'm writing this today with an upset stomach. I wish I could say this was a one-time issue. It's not. I've been trying this restaurant, on and off, for over 15 years, and I kept giving them chance after chance because I wanted so badly for it to be good. I first met the owner when he ran a food truck, before the restaurant existed. I was excited; there weren't many Jamaicans in Austin at the time, and I was happy to support one. The rice and peas was so bad I threw the plate away. Years later, I tried the restaurant location. I ordered curry goat, took it to my car, and found the meat flavorless, fatty, and poorly trimmed; basically inedible. I threw it away in the parking lot. I later ordered oxtail through Uber Eats: flavorless again, poorly prepped meat, and an actual rock in the rice and peas. I tried introducing the child to Jamaican food with one of their beef patties, and it was dry and flavorless. Yesterday I ordered the "safest" thing on the menu, brown stew chicken, specifically because I no longer trust myself to spend real money on anything more ambitious here. I still got food that had clearly been microwaved and reheated unevenly, served with a piece of chicken that was still cold. Are we really selling microwaved leftovers out of an established restaurant with a huge kitchen? Jamaican food is something our culture takes real pride in. This restaurant has had a decade and a half to get it right, and instead I've watched it consistently cut corners on seasoning, on prep, and now on basic food safety. I don't say this lightly: if you want real Jamaican food, this isn't where you'll find it, and depending on the day, what you're served may not even be handled safely.
