50 Best Food Trucks in Raleigh

“The owner Alberto is a great guy, and the birria quesadillas are delicious. Spicy and flavorful food all around, good price too. The mangos at the market are great too.“

“Just tried them for the first time. And they slapped me in the face with fantastic food and lemonade. Do not...I repeat..do not pass this food truck up. Stop, grab a plate. You'll thank me later....#macandcheese#potatosalad...I'm just sayin'...“

“One of the best chicken biscuit in town“

“Great customer service. Best pupusa I had in this area. The torta was massive. Only could eat half. Great prices. I will be eating here again.“

“Picture this you’re a native New Yorker looking for a righteous Late night halal eat. After a evening of July 4th scanning of food trucks that came to no avail. You Find AK Mix Grill and you get transported to the streets of Brooklyn. Thats the reality that I faced tonight. PS always get the spicy rice!“

“Buen servicio, buenos precios y todo hecho al momento.“

“I love the steak tacos, however, lately the steak has been too tough and really difficult to chew. But I order it every time. The only other complaint i have is the traffic in the very small parking lot. If my steak gets softer, I'll change to 5 🌟. Overall, good food at reasonable prices.“

“This place deserves five stars. They truly have a great customer service and burritos are amazing. 10/10 would try again 😄“

“Sarge's sauce made my shrimp and grits easier and more flavorful than my usual recipe. I simply sauteed chopped onion, bell pepper and garlic, added Sarge's sauce and chicken broth, and then added the sauted shrimp. I plated it by putting it on top of my cooked grits and then topping it with a bit of chopped tomato. Yum!“

“I first tried Dampf BBQ many years ago when they were still out at the fairgrounds, and I can honestly say it has remained the best and most consistent barbecue I’ve had both in this state and across the country. I’ve traveled extensively during my military career, which has given me the chance to try some truly great barbecue spots nationwide. Even with all that experience, Dampf BBQ is still my number one. The meat is always incredibly tender, packed with flavor, and cooked with the kind of care you can taste in every bite. Beyond the food, the people here make the experience even better. This is a dedicated, family-owned, local business that clearly takes pride in what they do. I’ve seen comments about wait times and pricing, but in my opinion, anything truly good is worth waiting for, and anything made with real quality is worth paying for. I drive an hour just to get this barbecue, and I’ve never once been disappointed. It’s consistently excellent, every single time. If you’re on the fence… don’t be. It’s 100% worth the trip. Give it a shot.“

“My first time here. I have been craving food from a Halal Food Truck in FOREVER ! And when I tell yall, they have the BEST absolute BEST Philly Cheesesteak with Fries omg . Them Fries were so deliciousss I would eat that every day each week if I could its so goodd . I ate it literally yesterday & I want it for Lunch && Dinner right now and for tomorrow 😭 it’s sooo goood . I hope they add more stuff to the menu because if so I’ll be here 1 or up to 3 times a week. I couldnt even take a picture of the food because i just went straight to eat everything“

“had the steak tacos for the first time they were amazing i highly recommend them everything else looks really good also“

“15/10 would recommend! I was in Raleigh for a week work trip, and ended up here multiple times to eat. Ms. Patty the chef, and face at the counter made the experience that much better! She was kind, as homey as the food tasted, on top of it and boy, can she cook! You can taste, see, and hear her passion and love for food! I love some good BBQ, and prefer to support a small business vs a mediocre chain, and am SOOO glad I stumbled upon this place. Yes, it's a resturant in a gas station ; which always tend to be the hidden gems (IYKYK). This place did not disappoint. The pulled pork sandwich was TOP NOTCH. Those hushpuppies on the side were soo good. All the sides looked sooo good; I struggled to decide on which ones to choose: mac n cheese was cheesy and dreamy, baked beans were packed with flavor, the slaw paired perfectly on the sandwhich, and the broccoli salad was also super delicious!! I wish I could of tried every side, next time I am back in the area, I will be coming back and trying more. The brisket on Thursdays, also sooo delicious 😋. Price point was great, I would easily pay more than I did for what I got and how tasty it was! For sure finish your meal off with the banana pudding 🤤 this place is a hidden gem, and Patty too! I am already dreaming of coming back for more! If you're looking for some good eats- for sure try this place out!!! 🙌❤️“

“Great tacos! Have you left Durham?“

“We had Longleaf Swine catered for Nurses week. The brisket was delicious, one of the best I've had. loved the mustard sauce and mac n cheese. Very good, 10/10 recommend“

“Delicious and creative! Perfect for special events“

“Amazing food and wonderful people I had a great experience!“

“Best taco truck I've ever been to and by far best tacos in the triangle area prices are great and orders are always made in a timely fashion I won't go anywhere else you will not be disappointed“

“La mejor comida hondureña aquí en Raleigh y la mejor atención ❤️“

“This place has the best ice cream. Unfortunately, it does not have the best employees. Every single time I’ve been there in the last two years, my order has been wrong. Stopped by and ordered two sundaes tonight. Both of them had the wrong flavors in them. Like, not even close. We ended up throwing them away. Was going to complain but the kid that made them was running the register so I figured what’s the point. So, great ice cream when you get what you order. I’ve kind of forgotten what that’s like but I’m still recommending them.“

“Food was great. Usually skeptical about food trucks as they’re known to be greasy and not authentic. The food here was great. Flavor was authentic and the best part is that they have HOMEMADE tortillas. You will not come across a food truck this good. I stopped by visiting some friends and was truly amazed. I never write reviews. 5/5!!“

“One of the best Shawarmas in Raleigh. It is a food truck but man... so much better and authentic than some restaurants! Limited menu but whatever they sell is delicious. Falafel wrap, beef/chicken shawarma everything is so good! One in photo is a chicken shawarma. And the owner is also very friendly and sweet!! Hopefully they will expand their menu to more items.“

“This is an amazing taco truck. I did a U-turn on Glenwood to come here. Somehow never spotted them before, but darn glad I did. Two tacos under $8, with super spicy red sauce. I am not left wanting anything. Just perfect. Authentic flavorful goodness. I will be back.“

“This place deserves five stars. They truly have a great customer service and burritos are amazing. 10/10 would try again 😄“

“Excellent! I’m not even a big Wing fan, but these were fabulous. The wings were huge, crispy and saucy! A must try ❤️🍗“

“I stopped by to grab lunch. The food was delicious. The people were friendly and helpful. I want more corn!!!“

“This food truck is my usual spot for breakfast after work. But after seeing what I saw today with the new person, Am not sure if I will becoming anymore. After taking a persons order and grabbing his credit card , and swiping it , She didn’t wash her hands no gloves on , She grabes my food and put the avocado on it and grabbed the tortillas bare hand. With Covid going on and it not being sanitary alone , It makes me Worried the possible germs or .... she could be spreading.“

“I went to the yellow food truck. I haven't tried anything from the gray one yet.

I highly recommend the chicken tacos and steak tacos. They are very good, and the service is quick, the staff is nice, and the food was hot. The price is also a plus. $3 per taco and just as good as most Mexican food trucks. I would definitely be coming back again.

Parking: It's at a gas station, so you have to park where you can, and there are a few actual parking spots.“

“The cookie people were so kind to gift my work with some cookies. They were some of the best cookies 🍪 have had. Took one home to my son and he said he has never had a better cookie. These set the bar so high from here on out. Thank you so much for your generosity!“

“We have used Cocoa Forte as a food truck for our business as well as orders through EZ Caterer and they are hands down one of the best desserts/cheesecakes. The business is very professional and easy to book. I would highly recommend this company as a fun thing to do for your business for personal event.“

“Possibly the best empanadas I've ever had. I had the Southern and La Tumbada. Both were amazing but the La Tumbada was super good, with the pico de gallo and avocado. The shell is fried to perfection and adds a complement to the flavors within. I'll definitely look for this food truck again!“

“Love this place 😋 the food is always fresh and delicious. The staff is always friendly and kind. Really recommend this place for Dominican and Mexican dishes 🇩🇴🫶🏼😋🔥“

“toda la comida es muy deliciosa“

“I had a great experience at Fat Boys Shack in Wake Forest, NC. The food was delicious, and the customer service was a 10/10 from the moment I walked in. My tenders were fried hard just the way I like them without even having to ask, which was a pleasant surprise. The lemonade was also very good and refreshing. The restaurant itself was clean and well kept. Shoutout to the manager on duty, Paige Terry, and employee Tiara Spence for providing excellent service and making the visit even better. I’ll definitely be back!“

“This is a really solid local taco truck that serves great value taco plates. I usually get the steak tacos sometimes I'll get the chicken or Pastor/Carnitas and occasionally Barbacoa. My favorite is the steak though. They give really nice sides of Cucumber and Radish along with salsa and the food is energizing, healthy, and it digest well at a great price. Much better option than mainline fast food. The shrimp tacos are great too!“

“Great selections and wonderful flavors.“

“Best Taco truck in the area!!!!! I have been buying food since they opened i would recommend it to anybody.“

“What a pleasant surprise! I was getting tires across the street and just happen upon this place. No joke, the chicken burrito I got was really great. Easily in the top 3 Mexican food trucks I visit in the entire Raleigh area. It could easily be the best, just depends on the taste you’re after at this point. Definitely try it out. Only downside now js I’ll have to fight the steering wheel every time I drive by. Thanks!“

“They have some amazing and delicious food. 10/10“

“The tacos were wrapped in soggy tortillas , as if they been cooked a few hours ahead. The asada meat was dry and tasteless. The flautas were also wrapped in soggy tortillas. Just look at your food before you get it. But their horchata was pretty good. All in all I would recommend going to the other taco stand across the street from them. 5/10“

“6.2/10
Food truck setup with friendly people and a clean-looking truck. Parking was okay and the food quality felt solid. Small menu and limited seating, but it worked fine for a quick stop. Overall location is in a sketchy spot.

Taco 6.2/10
Pretty good and well made. Tastes like a standard food truck taco and hits the mark.

Asada torta 6.2/10
Very good overall. Fresh-tasting cheese, perfectly toasted bread, and a generous amount of meat.“

“My family stopped by Curry in a Hurry NC food truck for a quick bite and were pleasantly surprised. We got the green chicken! Yummmmmmmy and I mean this with every extra ‘m.’ I would highly recommend visiting when they are in your area or in the food hall. Please tell the owner that Mrs. Hunter sent you. This is a great business to support.“

“Dined for indoor lunch first time today & fell in love with their gf entrees! Came here to find where else I can find them since today’s not a partially convenient location. Now following food truck! Thank you for an amazing meal & first time experience!“
