Cool Runnings Jamaican Food Truck

I've had some disappointing experiences with mediocre Jamaican cuisine in the past, so I'm gun-shy when it comes to leaving my comfort zone and trying it at all. I've seen this trucked posted up at The Pit for a while, and I've heard good things, so I went full send and tried the oxtails. They came with plantains, rice and peas, and steamed veggies. The oxtails were perfectly cooked and fall-off-the-bone tender. Great flavor! Delicious plantains, rice, and veggies. What a stacked meal. I grabbed the bag and was surprised by how heavy it was. Definitely enough for 2. This was next level from what I've had in the past, and I look forward to visiting again and trying more.

Excellent authentic food. The jerk chicken was really tasty and superb. It comes with steamed veggies: cabbage, carrots, onions. It also came with rice which was good.I also got a Jamaican pop--Cola Champagne. Really good stuff. You just have to ignore food truck prices and bite the bullet to bite the food.5* = A top favorite. Mind-blowing good. I will definitely return and I will go out of my way to go here. Worth every dime of my money.4* = Outstanding. Top-tier. Some elements not quite as good as it gets, but it still is worthy of my regular business.3* = Good experience. I might do repeat business if it is convenient, the only option, the only one in its category, or on a whim, but would not be among the first thing to come to mind. Would definitely recommend you trying it to get your own take on it.2* = Not so good. Would not recommend at all. Waste of money.1* = How are they still in business? Stay away at all costs!

This food truck has been open for two weeks now and serves homemade delicious Jamaican food!! Had only a few options to choose from when I got there because they had already sold out of some of them. Luckily the Jerk Chicken was still available and was Y-U-M. Perfectly seared with all that good sweet and tangy sauce poured on. Chicken was tender and flavorful!! Vegetables were a good mix on the side and loved the plantains! A generous portion of rice rounded the meal out. Come early so you can get some of their food and don't forget to try some of their unique Jamaican sodas as well!

Moved to Tucson a year ago from the East coast. NY/NJ and though we love Tucson the food here just does not compare. We're always on the hunt for food that is even close to home. We have tried every Jamaican restaurant in town and they come close but never close enough. Desperate for some beef patties today on this Sunday afternoon we found cool runnings. Let me just say. They run hot 10/10 they must be driving that truck from the east coast 4 days a week i'm convinced.

The food here was excellent! Being away from home I was craving food that reminded me of where I came from. Cool Runnings Jamaican food is an excellent choice for authentic Jamaican food! Next time I will be back to try their Jerk Chicken

I really loved the taste of the jerk chicken and the flavor was really good. It was a little hot as in spicy, but I am a total wussy when it comes to things like that! Loved the grapefruit soda my husband had the cola champagne we both tried the pineapple. The plantains were nice. It was a nice touch and I really really am impressed with how much food there was.

Stopped at The Pit and tried them out. Ordered the Jerk Chicken and Rice. The chicken was so juicy and literally fall off the bone tender. Oh...and the plantains were so good.

We stopped by The Pit and at first pass missed this food truck, and by the time my family did notice it we had already eaten some tacos. However, the food looked so good my husband ordered the special (brown chicken stew) to take home and have for dinner, and it absolutely did not disappoint! The owner is so nice, and the food is absolutely worth the drive.

So good!! Can't wait to go back and try another item on menu!! Fast service and fresh food!
