Really nice food and good options. Recently been to PR and the flavors at this food truck are spot on. I only wish they had mofongo, but other than that great spot

This marvelous gem is curated with much Love, care, and it is observed in the food. The quality of their fried items how it is not greasy and their perfected maduros are *chefs kiss* The locally acquired sourcing is also observed and appreciated. Wish they still had beverages. Highly look forward to returning in the near future.

I consider myself a food snob. It’s a difficult thing to be, and I’m accustomed to being disappointed. But Plantain Bar blew me away. I went in with low expectations, despite their 4.9 star rating, simply because it’s a food truck, how great could it be? Let me tell you, pretty friggin great.
I got the Fatty Lechon in the plantain cups, and I could definitely see this on a real plate in an elevated dining restaurant. Such a fantastic combination of flavors. The deep savory flavor of the melt-in-your-mouth lechon is balanced by the semi-sweet plantain cups and complemented with a bit of freshness from the avocado and microgreens on top.. If you’re wondering what to order, the answer is this. I also got the yucca fries with the special sauce. Yucca fries were perfect, not hard, not stringy, perfectly crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, the perfect vehicle for that fantastic sauce.
The couple that runs it is incredibly sweet and the atmosphere is very lively. 10/10 would recommend you check out this gem.
PS. Bring bug spray!

Are you kidding me!!! The food that I ate today I cannot believe came from a food truck. I’ve been in Austin 4 years and I can honestly say that was the best meal from a food truck that I’ve ever had. And that’s all I do is eat at food trucks. Kimchi hot dog and a whole fried snapper? Where can you get that in Austin? No where. Seriously so good and you can just tell that they are such good people. Seriously out of bounds

I'm Haitian/Cuban Brooklynite and I've been looking for a place in Austin that will help with my Caribbean cravings for aLOOOOOOOOONG 6 years and WOW this place was definitely worth that wait. The flavors are layered, the meat is juicy and succulent the sauce is spectacular. The plantains and fries are fresh and crispy. You can tell that they care about the quality of their food. Now let's talk about presentation, just because they are food truck doesn't mean that they skimp on the visuals. I'm highly impressed and will definitely be back. So so so happy I found this gem ?
WOW! Got the Patacombo, and it truly was one of the best dishes I've had. Super quick service too!
