“I lived in Paraguay for a number of years and this brought me right back to those days! The empanadas were beautifully made and the chipa! Seriously, the chipa was excellent. If you haven’t tried it then you are missing out! I loved the mate cocido and just how everything here is made with love! The owner is such a hard worker and she really cares about her customers and shop. I came in here with my little girl and the owner was so sweet to her. Support this local business and I promise you won’t be disappointed!“
“Unique delicious flavor is what should be expected in a food truck and we loved everything we ordered. The chef confidently said the Coxinha was the best on the menu and my wife and I had to play Rock-Paper-Scissors for the last one. The sauce was incredible. The menu pricing is good for the caliber of flavor you will enjoy. It’s definitely worth savoring every bite. Well done.“
“I tried this place on a whim due to the reviews. I got half a chicken with rice and plantains, and a chicken and a beef empanada. This place has delicious chicken- and great plantains. But everything else was ok. I didn’t care for the empanadas at all, and the cilantro rice was subpar. The sauces were delicious and the service was excellent. The staff got my order wrong but they quickly fixed it which I appreciated. Very very kind and friendly service. I would not return, but it was a nice experience, especially the service!“
“I'm from Florida and until I found this truck totally felt that the Cuban food in Austin was lacking -- this place has the real stuff!Highly recommended for the food and the service. My only complaint is the mega loud generator --> not sure why they can't just get power from the grid there at the Hive...probably some strange Austin food-truck law; otherwise, it's great!“
“The friendly waitress was very nice, the food was excellent in a relaxing atmosphere, the taste of the food was delicious. I'm from El Salvador and I loved the Central American touch of home ? ? It's quite far away but I'll still come back! Blessings! ?“
“Food was incredible, like really good nachos and quesadillas and tacos. Delicious. Fast service. Lovely people. Turfing the playscape with padded turf would make it 10x safer and better. Right now, it is just non-level dirt. My non-walking child couldn't be let down to play/explore. The main dining area and bar/tv's seemed to be closed. Maybe still under renovation? Lots of mosquitos. Not sure if there is standing water that needs to be addressed. Despite all this, will be back for the food!“
“I got kicked out of the strip club across the street, so I went here. This is a fantastic place to have an existential crisis after a bouncer tells you to leave the strip club because you are ruining your life and the experience at the club for the other patrons. I was also kicked out of this coffee shop, but I'm a scumbag and I shouldn't be allowed in anyways.“
“Alexis is an excellent server! Her suggestion to try the smoked swordfish fish was right on - I wouldn't ordinarily try this but I'm so glad we did. The classic hippie salad with salmon is always a winner - excellent experience even in a jam packed dining room“
“I have tried almost all of the plates they sell and let me say the food is delicious!!! The food has really good flavor and it is made fresh when you order!! Lupita is very friendly and so welcoming to all her guest! I highly recommend this food truck to all who want to eat great homemade food!!“
“The people here were very friendly. We got a few baleadas. They were big and warm and authentic--my boyfriend lived in Honduras for two years and said they were delicious. The thick flour tortillas were handmade and delicious. They are also a cash only establishment, so bring a couple bills.“
“Wonderful new spins on semi familiar flavors. Perfect if you want to try something new, but aren't a food daredevil.Wheelchair accessibility: Great ramp and front door access, navigating a wheelchair would be pretty tight quarters inside, but plenty of room outside. The bathroom can accommodate a wheelchair, and has decent handrails, but again, it looks like it would be a little bit of tight quarters for the wheelchair. The sink in the bathroom can be used with one hand.“
“What a pleasant surprise to find Four Brothers in the Barton Springs Mall food court! I followed advice from another reviewer and had the bowl with cabbage, tomatoes, beans, avocado, platanos, and cheese. It was so delicious and filling that I could only eat half. The savory chicken was shredded and so good. The flavors reminded me of Cuban food because it isn't spicy hot at all and still it is so full of great flavors. What good luck to find this little gem in a mall.“
“Come hungry.Come very hungry.* * *Antojitos Chovita is a Honduran food truck in the fantastic streak of Mexican and Central American food trucks that runs along North Lamar between 183 and Kramer.The truck is slowly morphing into brick and mortar.The owners have built some semi-permanent walls and a roof over the front of the food truck so that you now eat indoors.They have hung futbol bandeiras from some of the most famous soccer teams in Honduras on the walls.Inside their shelter, it is actually kind of nice.And the food is good enough to totally justify these guys going brick and mortar.* * *Servings are huge.Huge like Cuban restaurant huge.Most of the plates I saw were just the size of a normal dinner plate.But they must have been stacked nine inches or higher with all the food that was crammed on the plate.I am on a diet so I ordered the smallest thing on the menu - a baleada.A baleada in principle is a single breakfast taco.In principle ...The lady at the counter asked me "just this?"She then asked "just one?"Given the size of the platters that everyone else was eating, I thought I was ordering light.The price seemed to indicate this was a small meal.I paid a mere four bucks for my baleada.* * *A baleada is the size of a pizza.A full size pizza, not an individual pan pie.It was made on the biggest flour tortilla I have ever seen in my life.The baleada is folded over to make a taco like half circle.Inside are refried beans and Honduran white cheese. The white cheese is halfway between an American Monterey Jack and a Mexican Queso Fresco.Technically it shreds like a hard cheese, but it melts down into something cremosa, cottage cheese style.I loved it.And believe me, one baleada in the morning and you are good to go for the rest of the day.You won't need to eat anything again until some time in the evening.* * *Honduran food is like British food.This is hearty, simple fare.Most of the dishes on the menu are plain grilled meats or plain fried entrees.Mixed grill ... pork chops ... fried fish ... fried chicken.There is Yucca on the side.As a result, most of what they serve, including my baleada is pretty bland.It all works as comfort food.BUT ....and this is a critical but ....NOTICE THE BOTTLE of DOLANCHO HOT SAUCE ON YOUR TABLE.The Dolancho hot sauce is on every table.The Dolancho hot sauce is there for a reason.USE IT.Dolancho hot sauce is absolutely positively excellent.It ranks with some of the best hot sauces I have had in Minas Gerais (which makes some of the best hot sauce on the planet.)My baleada was pleasant enough as it was served out of the kitchen.It was totally outstanding with the hot sauce on it.* * *How is Antojitos Chovita compared with other Honduran trucks in town?I couldn't tell you.I don't know the Austin Honduran food scene at all - let alone the Honduras Honduran food scene.But I would guess their other customers would tell you this is a good place.Between Lamar and I-35 and 183 and Rundberg is a fairly large Honduran community.There are Honduran churches. There are houses with Honduran flags.The parking lot for Antojitos Chovita was completely full.I had to park on the street and walk to get into the restaurant.Every table was full.(All six of them - but still they were full.)This is not at all true for other food trucks you see up and down North Lamar.About one third of the trucks in this strip get a lot of action.The other two thirds - not so much.The Mexican food truck next door to Antojitos Chovita was in the sadder two thirds.So I would say Antojitos Chovita is getting the vote of the locals ...And these locals are Hondurans who know their food.* * *Would I come back to Antojitos Chovita?Happily!“
“This place is wonderful! Everyone is so incredibly nice and knows the menu so well. They make you feel welcomed.We had our anniversary dinner here and they gave us champagne and salad on the house.The food was extremely delicious! Every single bite of it. Best steak I’ve had. The caviar bites and tamale were amazing too! Coming back for sure.“
