Boricua Soul Food Truck

Food Truck Time: Boricua Soul at the Cary's Downtown ChowdownI was able to try 2 empanadas with a side of mac & cheese from this food truck for $9. I chose the mojo chicken and the special, the flamin' hot targaryen chicken, for the empanadas. All of the food was fantastic and so was the service!

We are all entitled to our own opinions, right? Well here's mine:Parking: FOODTRUCKLocation: FOODTRUCKDecor/ambiance: 3Customer Service: 5+My wife went crazy when we pulled up alongside this truck. I guess she follows them on social media and had been wanting to give them a try. We jumped out of the car and ran up the truck. Its a standard sized Food Truck with the marketing plastered all over it. This one is special as its a mixture of Mexican and soul food. We ordered a bunch of veggies with veggie empanadas. She also ordered the cheesecake empanada and oh my lord was it amazing. We ran into this truck at a Cary food truck rodeo where there was tons of people. With all of the people at the truck they managed to do a great job kicking food out fairly fast. The food was hot and yummy. I feel in love with the veggie empanada. Also loved the cheesecake empanada. The collards, bean and rice and plantains were so yummy! Presentation of the food was great and the service was even better! This truck provided an amazing 5 star experience on Sunday at the Cary Chowdown!

Today was my 2nd time having this succulent cuisine. They definitely remind me of my last visit to PR. Arroz gandules are a meal alone but I also had pernil, which is moist, well seasoned and generous portion. OMG! The dough for empanadas is the lightest,fluffy pastry filled with chickenyummy. We will be following you.

Great food! The pernil and arroz con gandules is full of flavor! Also tried the empanadas and they were delicious, took two of my coworkers there for lunch and they loved it as well. Awesome service too! The owner is a really cool guy sat there and talked to him for a little, while I waited for my food.

Had the food truck about a month ago and have been dreaming about the taste every since. Had both the beef and chicken empanadas but the flavor on the beef was amazing. Went back a second time for the collards ... who knew vegetarian collards could be so flavorful. Also had the tostones and a hummingbird cupcake! Honestly everything was delicious and fresh!!!

Decided to try this at the Durham Food Truck Festival a few weeks ago. Let me just say that it was everything plus more! The pork was so tender and flavorful and the red onions on top were just divine. The rice was also cooked to perfection and was a great compliment to the pork. I will not hesitate to try their products every time I am nearby.

Listen...My husband went to this truck yesterday and got the Mac and cheese with the pork on it (forget the name of the dish), the chicken empanadas, and the sweet potato cheesecake empanada. After he went to the truck, he had some errands to run, so by the time it got to me, it was not hot at all. BUT LET ME TELL YOU!!! Despite how lukewarm everything was, it was literally some of the BEST food I've ever had!! I can't imagine what it'd taste like when it was fresh off the truck!! Those chicken empanadas!! LAWD!!! I'm convinced that they sprinkle a lil crack in that chicken, because that's all I've been craving since yesterday. I now have an addiction. The Mac n cheese dish and sweet potato empanada were also perfection, and I was so pleasantly surprised by the level of flavors within this food!! I've literally eaten at pretty much every food truck in the triangle, and THIS one here is now number one on my list. APPLAUSE! We need to get y'all on Food Truck Nation or something!

Bay-Bay! This food is delicious. Their food truck was a part of the food truck options offered through my job for lunch. I had the mojo chicken empanadas and a side of mac and cheese! Hot, fresh ingredients. I'm picky about my mac and cheese (none of that kraft box crap). This homemade BAKED mac and cheese was legit hunnie. Yes lawd! You betta get you some!

I tried Boricua Soul at the Durham food truck rodeo and was impressed. As you can tell by their name, this truck blends together latin food and traditional soul food. I tried all three empanadas and thought they were good, though a little dry. I was really impressed by the mac n cheese which was delicious. The thing that stood out most about this food truck to me was the staff-- they seemed to know many of their customers by name and you could tell that they really take time to get to know people. The woman at the register went out of her way to walk the person in front of me thru the menu and you could tell she really cared about the food. You could tell that they put love into their food, and it shows in the quality.

Was finally able to try the new restaurant at American Tobacco Campus and am so glad I did!I had the soul bowl and it included Pernil, Mac and cheese, collard greens, rice and beans and tostones.Pernil was tender and flavorful and I loved the red onion on top.Mac n cheese was heavenly with a great cheese to elbow ratio.Rice and beans were delicious as we're the tostones but my favorite was the collards.So tender, and well flavored!Also tried the fried chicken wings, which I loved and the sweet potato empanada which was my other favorite! That empanada was the truth and I could have eaten ten of them if I hadn't been so full.Great prices and portions, I look forward to eating here again the next time I'm in town.Do yourself and your taste buds a favor and try this spot!
