Food Junkies

Have them once in a while when their food truck comes up our way in jupiter. Seriously amazing. The Chicken Wings are on a whole other level. The dry spice they put on them is incredible. The waffles are great, the rice and beans are perfect. I can not believe anyone could say a bad thing about the service. They are top notch. Personable and fun. Wish they were closer on a permanent basis.

Food was good. I bought the fried shrimp and fries. But I won’t be returning. The customer service and professionalism was not acceptable for me to spend money here again. It’s a shame because when I like something I don’t mind loyally spending. I can only guess from what I experienced they have enough loyal customers. They didn’t need me. So it works for both of us that I won’t be returning.

I am a fan of the Mystery punch. Everything else is okay. I couldn’t decide what I wanted to order and received a little attitude on the other end. Whatevs!
Overall, they were down-​to-​earth. The service was fine. If anything I recommend you try their punch!
[Clearly this review is for the Mystery Punch]

EVERYTHING ELSE…
The prices are $$$$$. Almost everything is deep fried with very little seasoning. As far as prices goes, I understand these trucks have to pay for petrol and cooking oil drainage and «what not», but the price of a piece of fried fish will cost more than a lobster tail at some seafood restaurants.

Got to enjoy their food while they were at Granada Presbyterian Church. We were leaning towards their chicken and red velvet waffles and when the friendly gentleman said it was their best seller the choice was made. I’ve had my fair share of chicken and waffles — it’s something I enjoy ordering. I have to say they did not disappoint. I wasn’t totally convinced about red velvet waffles but they were good and different from your average waffle. It was a great portion for the price and extremely tasty. The chicken had the bones which made it a little tricky to eat but they were juicy, crunchy and well seasoned. They waffle to chicken ratio was a little off and we had almost two waffle triangles left over but we sacrificed ourselves and ate them solo. After sitting for a while the waffles also lost the little crunch they had but they were still tasty.

You’ll Be Addicted to Food Junkies on Wheels
While the Deep South does so many things ridiculously wrong — confederate flags, incest, obesity, hygiene, literacy — when it comes to incredible cooking, they excel like SEC football. Southern homestyle cooking is one of our favorite culinary genres. We all know the venerable Yardbird exquisitely serves it, but what if you desire a quick bite or do not want to spend over $ 50 chowing down on some appealing southern cuisine. Well, let us introduce you to the Food Junkies on Wheels, a delicious food truck that is here to satiate your deep fried southern hankerings. They have been slinging their addictive treats turning unsuspecting patrons into vein-​slapping Food Junkies.
The truck was created by the brother and sister team of Hakeem and Michelle. They grew up in Richmond Heights (near Metro Zoo) and were enrolled by their mother Dawn into mandatory, in-​house «culinary school» when they were only 5 years old. Dawn is one of those old school kitchen gurus who performs home cookin magic. They have taken her famous recipes and benevolently shared them with South Florida.
Their sexiest (and most favored) dish is Fried Chicken & Red Velvet Waffles. Take a moment and let that audacity sink in. It is a truly beautiful dish in both taste and appearance. The wings were skillfully fried so they were still moist and soft inside yet crispier than Colorado and Washington state students. The waffles are meant to be dipped into this angelic maple cream cheese sauce that captivates the taste buds.
Another one of their tasty offerings is Dawn’s Signature Sea Slaw. This elevation of the usual mundane coleslaw contains spiced up shrimp, crab, lime, pepper and sesame seeds. It is still sweet but with a nice tantalizing kick accompanying it. Chunks of crab and big ass shrimp are strewn across this harmonious balance of sweet and spicy.
Their Loaded Conch Balls are made with jumbo lump crab meat, shrimp and conch. It comes with what they call a Secret Hood Sauce, which was thousand island dressing with a little something extra, as well as a Classy Cocktail Sauce, ‘cuz you know the food truck industry is all about keepin’ it classy. These balls were crunchy perfection on the outside, yet soft and flavorful chunks of seafood and conch on the inside. Whether you want to admit out loud or not, you will definitely want these balls in your mouth.
We were induced into a severe state of «the ‘itis» after munching on the deliriously enrapturing Sweet Potato Pie that actually can make your nether regions kegel upon oral entry. It is insanely sweet but, oh my Lord, so freaking gratifying. We were bloated beyond belief but still managed to force feed ourselves half of this stellar pie.
After our experience with this truck we are definitely junkies now. The owners are sweet and put loads of Southern love and talent into their grub. We will be back very soon to try their Deep Fried Shrimp, 7-​up Cake and everything else on their menu.

OK so everything is fried here. The main hit of the day seemed to be the red velvet waffles and fried chicken. Also the fried chicken wings and fries… but nothing healthy. Also, their wifi was out so they couldn’t accept credit cards. Looks like a mom and son team which is nice. Heard very mixed reviews on it.
