I love food trucks and I love when you find a nice gem in an unexpected area. I was in Newark for…read morework and my friends and I stopped here for lunch. Their special that day was a fish wrap and I'm so glad I got it because it was fantastic. The fish was cooked perfectly and very flavorful. They paired it with some tartar sauce and some lettuce/tomato and it really hit the spot. They also had a fun Brazilian guarana soda that we tried and it was pretty tasty. I definitely recommend grabbing lunch here!

So I had lunch here the other day, and it was my first time. I had always seen the trucks there,…read moreand I see some crowding at times during lunch hours, so a couple of friends and I decided to check it out. We walked there with thoughts of what to expect from the menu, and even if it didn't taste good and we got food poisoning, the ER was close by. On we went, got there, ordered some lamb with rice, salad hot sauce and asked for just a little it mayo sauce, did not order soda- trying to keep the belly sexy you know! Cost was $7.50, not bad right? Hmm it depends on how you look at it. Whether its organic or not, I won't get too crazy with it. We didn't eat there, and we walked back to the lounge and lunch began. Opened it, saw the yellow rice, not really a big fan of yellow rice if I don't know how it got to that color, the lamb was ok, but the food overall was SALTY. And it didn't knock me of my feet.

This is a cash only food truck. There are no prices listed but they are kk d of high. Today I spent…read more$23.50 for a fish sandwich and a side of fried shrimp. No sides. Back in the day, I've used to eat here often. It's out of my way so I only eat here when I'm the area. The food is still really good. I stick to my favorites whiting and fried shrimp. It's seasoned well and the fish is fresh. Service is not the fastest but I don't mind the wait. There is nothing that comes close to this spot near my home or job so I'll continue to eat here.

I've been wanting to try this for quite some time. I ordered the Afro taco bowl, steak, I also…read moreordered the blackened basa and shrimp with jollof rice and chicken quesadillas. Ok so, the taco bowl was good. I'm assuming this is their house sauce on it, I liked it. It gives me bbq sauce family taste, so if you like that then you'll enjoy this. The blackened basa and shrimp was delightful. It is a little spicy spice so if you can't hand at all, this might not be for you. But if you can take a little kick of pepper and then some you'll enjoy it. And the shrimp was nice sized thick shrimp. I appreciated that! The chicken quesadilla was good? That saucy sauce they have is mixed in the middle, so be aware of that if you're looking for the more original taste of a quesadilla. This is a black owned business that I was soo excited to support, and I will be returning to continue to support them. They are very busy, so DO ORDER YOUR FOOD Maybe about an hour out from when you actually want it.

Friendly service, I always like when the staff will talk and joke with you. There is parking on the nearest side street (Florence Ave), but no parking on the Main Street (Liberty Ave). I submitted updates to their info, but in case it doesn't work, their current address is the lot next to 1350 Liberty Ave, Hillside, NJ 07205. You can't really park in the lot itself as there is no driveway. You'd have to drive over the curb & sidewalk. I mean, I guess you could if you were willing to do that. Had the Oxtail empanadas, Walking (Beef) Taco, you provide the chips of your choice. Not a problem there is a 7-Eleven directly across the street, & the Oxtail Burrito. Everything was very good. They are expensive, so be prepared for that, but you get what you pay for. Grades: Oxtail Empanadas: A Walking Taco (Beef): A- Oxtail Burrito: B+

My family ordered several different things from this truck, and I had the pleasure of sampling it all. Thai chili wings, fries, cheese fries, hot dogs, bbq wings and my very own order of lemon pepper wings! The food was mouth-watering! Everything we had, we LOVED! The prices are extremely reasonable for what they have to offer & the portions are generous!! There were a few people working on the truck so things ran smoothly. We placed 6 orders, and it was ready in under 10 mins! How'd they do that? The truck is really nice and clean. They have two screens on the truck so you can watch tv while you wait for your order. They do tap to pay so be sure to have your card out and ready. I'm unsure if they take cash or not but I didn't see anyone use any.

I will say that the bread was a bit too soggy and there was no lettuce or tomato. I wish they could have toasted it for the amount of time I was waiting anyway... The food did take a weee bit too long to make but I guess I understand that. I maybe try some fish like fried shrimp or scallops next time.

The…read morelamb (gyro meat) over rice is very good, it tastes like it was homemade and not the generic factory ones. The long grain basmati is a standout and sets itself apart from the other trucks. The white sauce is a bit heavy like it was just Mayo thinned out with water. Also the hot pepper flakes is not spicy at all. Also I don't think they have the usual Halal truck hot sauce since he never puts any in when I order which is a missed opportunity since I love spicy foods.

Always drove past this food truck in a lot on my way to & from Walmart & decided to check it out…read more Their options for chicken is very limited & they had a old woman on a very small grill outside the truck looking like they holding her hostage & she is cooking for her freedom (it's my attempt at a joke, calm down) I sent a picture of the menu to my wife & asked if she wanted anything & she said she had always wanted to check out the location. I ordered Tallarines Verdes Con Parillon Papa A La Huancaina, basically some pesto noodles with a cut of steak with cheese over Potato, it took about 25 minutes to prepare & a lot of people were picking up up food to go, place seems very popular with the neighborhood residents. Food came in a baking container & could possibly feed 3-4 ppl so at $22 , it seemed like a deal in terms of portion. My wife thoroughly enjoyed it but barely made a dent in the tray on the first sitting, I tasted the cheese & potato & it was delicious. My wife says she wants to try more items from this truck even though she hasn't eaten half of the tray after 3 days.
