My wife and I got some beef empanadas, mofongo with shrimp, and a tripleta sandwich. The beef empanadas were good and larger than expected. The mofongo with shrimp was good, but a bit bland. The shrimp had a lot of garlic, but oddly not a lot of flavor. The tripleta was also very good. Portions overall were larger than expected especially for a food truck.

Just to be clear this is not a restaurant, its a food truck. I got 3 empanadillas de pollo with very little meat. It was dark meat. I ordered mofongo with pernil and one with shrimp. The shrimp was not fresh at all. It was prepared the way it was advertised. The mofongo with pernil smelled like the shrimp. The woman taking the order was rude. All in all very disappointing. 40 dollars in the trash.

Truly a hidden gem. I got hungry while waiting for a tire to be mounted. I walked over for a steak taco and a torta. Honestly had my expectations blown out of the water. Everything was made to order and I went back for extra tacos after I got done with the tire shop. Squeezing lime onto everything just makes it even better.

Coñooooo, eso estuvo demasiaoo!!!!! That was easily the best and most authentic food I've had here in Charlotte. We had the tripleta, mofongo with skirt steak, and fried meat with tostones...everything was awesome!!! The tripleta reminded me of being back home!! I definitely recommend this spot. Keep it up!!

Great authentic Puertorrican place. The lady used to be a chef for a very important hotel in Puerto Rico. The mofongo is probably one of the best mofongos I have ever tasted. Absolutely worth it!
