The food was simply amazing! We ordered 4 potatoes, ( the sea pot, the meat me at the pot chicken, and meat me at the pot steak and a build your own potato. We also had the watermelon mint lemonade and the blueberry mint lemonade. This a food truck lets be clear!!! However, very quick service. I'm a stickler about customer service especially when spending money to support your establishment but anywho. This one of those spots you have to look over the service and get the good ole food honey. Lol !! This is a must try for the FOOD Experience!!!!

I saw this place on TikTok and I must say, I WAS NOT DISAPPOINTED! The Seafood Baked Potato was slappin! It was soo good! The presentation is mouth watering, the house soup is also delicious & flavorful and the crew is soooo kind. Also try thier lemonades which compliment your meal perfectly. The business is a food truck not far from the freeway, but they do provide you a buzzer that goes off to let you know your order is ready, so that you can sit safely in your car while you wait for your food.I can not wait to eat there again when I return to Dallas!

Ok, when I heard of this place I must say I was like $25-$30 for a Potato!!!! Well after visiting a well U.S wide restaurant this week in Texas ( i wont name it not fair to)and my friend paid 31.95 plus automatic tip added in for a Salmon salad... and they were still hungry and I read the reviews and no one complained about the price of some lettuce, onions, eggs, tomato with a piece of grilled salmon on the top, I was like how bad could it be....Well I can tell you, it is worth the $30, I got the seafood one, it was delicious..and I'm a picky eater...dont think of it as a Potato, think of it as your protein and sides (veggies) on top of your starch, (which in this case is a huge baked potato) with this yummy crawfish sauce...delicious, side of town, well... however "most delicious, seasoned NOT SALTY, because I know salt is have HBP" so I watch my intake..tasty food is usually at places folks say " I'm not going there" well I can tell you go there and treat yourself and indulge, you won't still be hungry...I am a verified eater of this seafood potato on Dec 2, 2025. I couldn't eat the whole thing in one sitting... Keep doing your thing and expand your taste buds if you love different food, $ well spent..

So I saw this on Instagram and decided to try it. Well let's just say it was a lot of people and the service was pleasant. I t was almost 2 hrs before I received my food 😭.( I guess the potatoes weren't ready 😁). I ordered the stake potato and it was 🔥🔥🔥 stake was seasoned perfectly and the veggies mmmmm 😋. Nice size potato. I could of used some more cheese on it 😜 but no complaints 😁. I had to share this place with my son so we'll be seeing you soon...

Ordered the steak potato with chicken, the beef is well seasoned and good, the chicken is well seasoned and tender. Also Ordered the seafood potato, it was delicious with salmon plenty of and it had 3 really big shrimp, would recommend. Git the chop potato, the lamb is seasoned really good and taste good, I recommend that one too. When I go next time ask for extra sauce, really good. Now the watermelon mint and blueberry mint lemonade are awesome delicious, my favorite is watermelon mint lemonade, get two trust me.

The food was amazing. Saw this place on Instagram and wanted to give it a go. Finally made it over and today and it did not disappoint. Customer service was great. The team member who accepted our order was knowledgeable and personable. She made some excellent suggestions and modified two meals as specified. It didn't take long to prep the food. It was delivered fresh and hot. The sauce on the steak potato was delicious. The onions and peppers were sautéed. The steak was tender and well seasoned. The potato was cooked through and through not like some other places. The lemonades were also go. Try mixing flavors. Thank me later❣️

We drove 40 minutes to see if this place was any good. And it was and is. A little expensive but its worth it. We bought 2 chicken potatoes and one steak and a watermelon mint lemonade. Never in my life had I tasted a watermelon lemonade mint drink but it was delicious, light and airy. Was 16 oz for 4 dollars and change so a little small compared to a refresher at panda express or panoramic. The chicken potato was loaded with meat and cheese, bell peppers and onions....so good and filling. Roughly 21 dollars a piece and the steak was 23 dollars...totalling 71 and change on a card. We arrived at 1145am and they dont open until noon BUT thank goodness they took the order ahead of opening because it was getting so crowded already. Its a food truck off MLK folks so dont expect a restaurant. Parking is limited. VERY, limited so expect that little piece of a hassle.

The food was 20 out of 10! I couldn’t decide on which potato I wanted so I got the sea pot and the lamb chop potato they both were filled with flavor!! The lamb chops was so good, I could’ve ordered the lamb chops without the potato. I did DoorDash and it took less than 30 minutes to get to receive my food. I can’t wait to go bk to Dallas!!!!!! Love this place!!!!

10/10! My 1st visit I got the Chop Pot. It was so good! I said no way there could be a better potato. 2nd visit I for the seafood pot and it surpassed my expectations. The salmon and crawfish is the perfect mix plus you get a few jumbo shrimp and it is absolutely amazing. I will be back! My goal is to try them all!!!

Amazing little gem tucked away in the hood. Yes, yall...it's in the ghetto, but we know all the good food is in the hood. ;-) They have delicious, BIG, well seasoned baked potatoes!!! I got the Texas Buffalo and my boyfriend got the Tac-ato. They have several different options all look and sound amazing. Plus, they have delicious, refreshing, mint flavored, lemonades. Watermelon or Blueberry both are delicious!! Can't wait to go back and try the Cajun potato!!

The best, I mean best Potato Bar I've ever had. The potatoes are baked well always fresh the potato is soft not lumpy or hard. I have a couple of favorites there. The only thing about this place that I wish for and that for them to have longer hours especially in the weekend at least until 8pm. If you haven't tried them you are missing out and should order online or go in person you will not regret it.

I ordered online glad I did so pickup was quick and ready when arrived. Went during lunch order they had a line but it moved quick. Many others was just pick up. Lambchops were tender, would have liked to have more sauce will order extra next time. The potato was soft and cheesy. It doesn't come with onions, peppers and etc. (Thats extra so next time I will add I thought it came that way. ). Good flavor will come back qnd try others. The lemonade was fresh loved the hint of mint.

This is a take-out joint only. Only 4 people allowed inside for a good reason. It's small inside. Ordering was simple. Use a paper menu or scan the QR code. There was only a hand full of people waiting outside but the guy outside smoking weed and begging for .80 cents forced people to sit in the car. The wait was long but the food was good. I placed my order at 4:35 and received my food at 5:20

Wait time is a little long, but the food and lemonades were delicious!!! Unique atmosphere and parking situation?? Sat in lot and ate potatoes while watching countless people navigate difficult parking, just to get turned away because they sold out of potatoes an hour before they closed! Secretly had a fun people watching and munching parking lot date!

Got 2 potatoes, but didn't receive my 2 orders of Cajun Crawfish Sauce. It was a bit busy, I get it. Hopefully i can get credit for it and get them next time I'm there.

Worth the try. Portion sizes a little small, potato was a little dry, but it was the last 2 of the day. Will go back but earlier in the day. It's order and go in-person or online. Seafood Pot overpriced for what you get. Chicken Pot deeeelish. Will try it again with extra veggies and sauce, chicken was sufficient. Didn't try the favorable looking drinks.

I’ve been wanting to come here for a while now, finally got the chance today, there wasn’t much of a wait when I got there but shortly after it was a lunch rush! It was alright - nothing much to rave over. I built my own potato, I had chicken (it was overcooked and a little dry), cheese, peppers and onions and it came out to twenty four damn dollars. I’m glad I tried it, but I don’t have to come back. The price of the potatoes wasn’t worth what was received!

Drove a hour for this potato and was highly disappointed. The guys taking and making order were very polite and friendly. But after a 35 min slow wait and to receive the sea pot potato with barely any meat or cheese on it for $29 dollars is insane. I had to ask for cheddar cheese to be added which on the menu its states it comes with it but mine didn’t. Also I should have asked for additional meat because the potato was so skimpy, with only a few pieces of meat only in the corner. Potato consisted of cream sauce and Potato only. Don’t believe the tik tok reviews my potato didn’t look nothing like tik tok at 29$ plus I tipped. Im pissed . 😡 picture below after I took only one bite!!!!!
