Only 3 food carts here and 2 of them are closed at 12. Waste of time

When I first saw the menu, I was really worried. It’s got a lot of options on it, some pretty different from the others, and in my experience, places that try to do too much aren’t as good as those that pick a lane and stick with it.This place is the exception to that rule. The Philly cheese steak sandwich is one of the best you can get in Portland. On Fridays and Saturdays, Dave makes what he calls “Cranky Pockets”. These are hand made (including the dough) pizza pockets, that are deep fried and yet somehow don’t come out super greasy. They taste like high end hot pocket pizza pockets, in the best possible way. My wife has had the burger multiple times and raved about it. Seriously, it’s just all good. Dave is also a super nice guy too! Be sure to check out the beer cart as well

Tried the Philly and a hot pocket!!! Oh yes!Philly hit a spot, however, the hot pocket was a real winner. If you ask, he can also do deep fried burger as well hehe!The hot pocket was really packed and full of flavors and the dough holds up well to the deep fry.Go and give it a go!!

All three carts are great! Don't miss the cheesy grits or collared greens at Dinner Bell. New cart The Tortoise Shell has some great items, including what may be the best onion rings I've ever had. Great beers on tap at the Beer Spot too! Pet friendly and very nice people!

A great little pod. The Beer Spot has a small but very well curated tap list. Pastrami sandwiches are excellent as well.

Great pastrami sandwich. Different from most that I've had. The Russian dressing was really tasty.

An amazing food truck venue! This place has amazing southern BBQ with Dinner Bell BBQ (Chef Sam is the best), a fantastic Burger/Sandwich joint with Pastrami Zombie, and a place to get some brews with Beer Spot!The venue itself is in a great location with a nice shaded area, plenty of parking along the street, and even some heaters in the colder months.It's become the only place I go for food trucks now!

The smell while you're waiting makes you drool a bit. I had the rib plate, sides of cheesy grits and baked beans. It was very delicious. Ribs were just the right amount of fall off the bone and still have a little "tooth" to the meat. The beans were almost like a chili, and paired well with the grits. I also enjoyed the finishing touch of the bread separately wrapped. Best of all is the friendliness and warmth of the proprietor, you can tell he takes pride in his product, and with good reason. I will have to go back and sample some more of the fare that is offered.

Fantastic BBQ here! Great options for really affordable prices and it's right next to a beer spot. Definitely worth the jaunt. There's another food cart that will be opening soon as well here. Sliders for $3 each, pork or chicken, just the right amount of sauce.
