Food Trucks yay or nay

  • gerb131
    Had the burrito bus in Athens back in the day but now there like 50 of them around Columbus. Been hitting them here and there and overall good stuff. Guy I know runs Hungry Monkey and they will be at the food truck fest on Friday and Saturday at Columbus commons.
    I am heading up Saturday afternoon check it out. Anyone else? Like food trucks or no?

    Mikey's Late Night Slice is awesome. I know a few people who work for them. Slut Sauce is pretty damned tasty.


    Also their boxes are kind of creepy.

    Absolutely yay. Love the food they put out at a mostly reasonable price. Too bad Chicago's laws about them suck so bad.

    I'm hitting up a food truck festival on my honeymoon next week in Seattle, probably going to try to find some in Portland too.

    Street meat is the shit.

    Yeah, there's a taco truck not too far from my apt in Columbus that I frequent quite a bit.

    Unfortunatlely no debit, cash only. Oh, and their broken English posts on facebook are pretty entertaining

    Love 'em.

    They've got a few here in Cincy. Sometimes they are at the breweries during the evening or weekends. Catch a Fire Pizza is a good one. They have a fire brick oven they cook their pizza in. Great pizza.

    It's a skillet.

    I've eaten from a few different food trucks and generally I feel I'm disappointed as people always rave about how good they are. So I think my expectations are often too high.

    A big yay. I will be going to the feat this weekend. The best BBQ in Columbus is at Ray Rays Hog Pit and the best fried chicken I've ever had is at Myas fried Chicken. Both of those food trucks have standard locations in Clintonville and are amazing. I've also tried a lot of the other trucks in Columbus are their all pretty good. Almost forgot that one of the top ten tacos in America in from the Los gauchos food truck in columbus.

    BTW if you hit up Mikey's late night slice you have to try the cheezus and the hungry monkey truck has the really good burger cooked with peanut butter.

    LOL, yeah, because your eating options are otherwise so limited.

    always wanted to try Ray Rays. City BBQ is ok but their ribs are below average

    Agreed. Think I will hit that for sure this wknd.
    And yea it does suck that they only take cash but oh well
  • Tiernan
    Taquitos from the truck on Morse & 3c are the best I've ever had.
  • OSH
    YAY! I wish I could eat at them regularly. I'll eat any local joint over a chain restaurant.

    Ray rays is open Thursday - Saturday at Ace of Cups in columbus they also opening a wing place inside of ace of cups. My favorite of all the food trucks is myas fried chicken. If they have chicken and waffles this weekend I highly recommend trying them over anyone else.

    Fiancé also loves food trucks so at our wedding were having Mikey's late night slice for after the reception should be a good time.

    Back at OU, I loved the Burrito Buggy and all the other ones in that area. Think there was a french bread pizza one, a burger one and a falafel/gyro one.
  • O-Trap
    Hell yay, unless it involves fish meat.
  • dlazz
    Food trucks come to work once a month and I don't take part in it.

    Hope this helps.

    Ray Rays is ok.

    Slabadabado at the Olde Dutchman in Westerville and Rt 62 BBQ in Johnstown are better IMO.

    I would kill a homeless man outside for a burrito from the Buggy.

    I even have a buggy t-shirt

    At one time, there was a Bagel Buggy right next to them too. To this day, I've still not had a better burrito.
