Previous 5 star review.
It’s been about 2 months since we have visited and this was our 5th time patronizing this food truck. The food used to be real solid. As a Houstonian, I think know good Mexican as I grew up eating that as a main staple for 25 years. Something has changed in the new year. Prices have jumped, I get that, and don’t mind paying for good quality food.
I got the Pork and Chicken Plate and Fiery Taco. My wife got the Chicken Quesadilla.
The plate has changed, reduced the items in it to just meat rice and beans. The beans were an improvement but the rice and meat had declined significantly. The chicken was cooked well but lacked seasoning. The pork was extremely dry and overcooked. The rice had a weird taste and a pile of mush. The corn tortillas were rock hard. The hardly gave me any salsas.
For the fiery taco, the steak was extremely chewy, gristly, and overcooked. The shrimp was cooked well but I don’t think I even I got a full single small shrimp. The avocado has been reduced to a couple tiny pieces and not the adequate slices of before. I wouldn’t pay more than $3-4 for this anywhere else, let alone the $6.50 they are now charging.
The quesadilla was probably the best thing on the menu but I only got a nibble since it wasn’t my order.
Overall, a huge decline. No longer a go to spot. Food took 25 minutes with only one order ahead. The employees I am used to were not there tonight, so maybe it was the D crew in. They also took away the kids menu.
Unfortunately, I won’t be coming back to try to see if there is any improvement. I will have to stick to all the other sub par Mexican food Jacksonville has to offer, but maybe, just maybe a little tastier and consistent than this food truck. I hate to say it but maybe I’ll have to revisit Don Juan’s which was a tragedy of...

Read moreHow does such good food come from small food truck? I don’t know but it was FANTASTIC.
My son and I ventured to the FKT on a lark, and what a great lark it was. We moved to this part of town recently, so we have enjoyed trying new spots. Some of those spots we return to and some are one and done. Fiery Kitchen Taco is a keeper and we are already making plans to return.
Service is personal and quick, parking is plentiful at the dry cleaners or nearer to the truck.
But you really know about the food:
Burrito with Steak - tender chunks of steak, combined with all the fixings. Delicious Bang Bang Taco - perfectly cooked shrimp with a sauce with a kick. If you want a bigger kick, try the hot sauce they include. (I am guessing it may be Bang-Bang-Bang Sauce,) Shrimp Tacos - I am guessing they are good, but my order got confused and the two shrimp tacos I ordered were misplaced and instead I got…… Ground Beef Tacos - I don’t eat red meat, but my two bites of this may convert me. They were PHENOMENAL.
Perfect meal: Anything, but I thought the tacos were really spectacular.
Maybe the only reason you should not go here is because you don’t live good food at a...
