I visited this food truck the other night at its new location behind the Gosling Express convenience store. On that night it was a one-man operation so the service was a bit slow, but not too bad.
I had a pork pepito basket with a papelon con limon. My fries were something of a disappointment--limp and not very many, but my friend who ordered a side of fries at the same time said hers were better. The sandwich was pretty good--tender pork with a generous amount of a tasty dill sauce, along with cheese and some other condiments. It's a good thing the sauce was good, because between the dill flavor and the amount it pretty much overwhelmed the rest of the flavors. The roll was good, a nice crusty one that allowed you to pick up the sandwich easily. I liked it fine. My friend had the burger, which was a decent basic burger except for the cheese not melting properly.The papelon con limon was OK--probably made with turbinado sugar. I've had it with brown sugar and liked that better.
The truck has a very broad menu, covering Venezuelan, Tex-Mex, and even Asian dishes. I would say it is worth a try if you are branching out.
This was my first time to visit the Gosling Express food truck court at a busier time. The parking gets awkward--the lot was completely full and starting to get unsafe, but the tables were not really that full. Maybe a lot of people came on their own? There's a great choice of food--I'll be back for several more reviews--and an outdoor bar. Unfortunately they emulate nightclubs by playing music (tonight it was electronic dance music) loud enough that you can't really talk with your party. They could maybe start that later.
