Best mofongo and tres golpes hands down! It was sooo good! I tried la Bandera (rice, pork and beans with tostones) and it was extremely disappointing. However the mofongo is my fave so far that I've tried in Tampa, and their mangu is amazingggg! Be warned though: they disclosed that they're changing their location to 5502 N Armenia Avenue, Tampa FL 33603.

So, leaving the club. In need of good food to sober up. I came across this food truck on my way to the car. I thought I was going to just get food, but the empanada I ordered came with a side of life changing inspiration. When I asked to share her story of why she decided to start selling food, 5 months ago, in the middle of a historic inflation in food costs, she answered back: “ you don’t need money, you just beed the right attitude”. DONE!!! SOLD! I was convinced I made the right the decision by supporting her, without even trying the food yet. That’s the type of energy I want to give my money to. That’s the type of attitude that can change the world. Ofcourse, the empanadas were awesome. But she showed me that success can happen instantly. Before trying the product I purchased. And for that, her business became an important memory. Thanks

I order food all the time from here but lately it seems they are closed. When you call their phone, it goes straight to voicemail. The food is great, but they are not consistent.

First time there today, the amount of food wasn’t much and was ok but it was pricey, I don’t think I’l be back here

The chicharrones with tostones was amazing, although I can agree with a lot of the other reviews the amount of food they give for the price is not worth it! but the chimi… it was literally disgusting and I don’t say that often! The bread looked like it was dipped in meat juice and then they SMOTHERED it in mayoketchu and the repollo in it tasted like straight vinegar! It was just BAD smh

Their hours on the website & google are not honored. The business says it is open 2pm-2am, ordered online at 9:10pm and came to the business closed. Incredibly unprofessional.

We ordered 3 meals My chimi that i ordered is nothing like the one picture and i was given a cold hamburger patty with no flavor I ordered 3 tacos with carne de asada and they were very small, cold and no seasoning. Not to mention barely any meat. Mofongo with carne de chicharron My husband ended up throwing away the entire food it was tasteless and the mofongo was very dry and old. I will not be returning!! Overall its nasty and overpriced!

Deceiving, drive from New Port Richey ordered 2 Bandera Dominicana, (customer service was great) but when I got home and opened my bags found FRIED CHICKEN, LONG HAIR WRAPPING THE TO STONES AND BLACK HAIR ON THE WHITE RICE LIKE SOME SHAVED THEIR FACE OR UNDER ARM. GROSSED OUT AND VERY DECEIVING.

Beyond pissed Imagine being hungry and going to get the asopao and it’s super salty beyond edible I also bought a chimi it was completely smothered in mayo ketchup sauce I spent 30$ to have to throw away the food It’s unbelievable how this is a Dominican food truck but the cooks are Cuban Not throwning any shade but y’all need to do better I work hard for my money it’s not ok to have to throw away food

I had the alcapurria which was flavorless and it was raw on the inside the chicken empanada also had no flavor and the chicken was dry it needed the sauce bad and it's too expensive for the little food you get

I just got the most disgusting chimi I ever had in my life, I also got a 5 dollars mini empanada it was not bad but 5 Dollars come on i don’t recommend I got tonight at all

the prices are crazy expensive for such a small amount of food its kind of disrespectful to be honest
