Sabores de mi Tierra — Restaurant in Jacksonville

A hidden gem in Jax. An entire meal plate that transports you back to that one home where a home cooked meal tasted like a true labor of love from a food truck.

The food is truly amazing. I had a carne asada dinner plate with rice, black refried beans, a half slice of avocado, 4 corn tortillas, and pico de gallo. Carne asada is full of flavors and tender. Cost $15 which is well worth it. I also tried their bowl of Menudo that come with a side of the norm trimmings. It was out of this world. It was pricier costing $20. A large refreshing and delicious horchata at around a few $.

I have heard others order tacos, flautas, and roasted chicken dinner plates over the phone for pick-up. Other protein options are grilled fish, pork chops, and chicken breast a la plancha. Soups like menudos, carne de res or pollo (beef/chicken) stew with sides on Saturday’s only.

The outdoor seating is well built and landscaping well designed. It really distracts from the fact that you are in the back area of a business with a motel on the other side. Entrance to La Popular Spanish grocery door in same space. You can buy Mexican bottle cokes, Jarritos, and so much more.

The only negative here is the lack of an actual menu, written or as pictures, to describe what they offer, or their pricing. They are primarily Spanish speaking, speaks some English, but may prevent non-Spanish speakers from trying this place out.

I highly recommend visiting this...

Found this good truck location by chance. Really nice and cool vibe! Very nice patio for seating… decorated and landscaped even.

Had the beef street tacos and horchata to drink. The tacos were excellent and huge… stuffed full… no skimping on quantity of meat and toppings. Their salsa verde was very good too!

Appears to be all family run and all the food made from scratch!!

**9/21/2024 … updating my review! Every time we come here it is excellent both the food and the atmosphere/service!! They never disappoint! Huge portions of food and always delicious!! As a gringo who speaks Spanish and loves traveling in central and South America, this place reminds me of authentic food when I’m traveling!!

They’re open late (10pm) so may even come back this evening. Definitely will be back to try other menu items!

What a good find today!! It’s located behind the store called “Zorro”. The food truck isn’t visible from the street… just find the Zorro store, and you’ll find...

Local treasure!! Behind the tax place off University Blvd. Small but food truck don't let that discourage you!!! It is DELICIOUS with covered, outdoor seating and a tiny Mexican grocery shop. Homecooking from scratch. Eat whatever they offer. You will be so happy!!!! And you'll want to go back. We had so many...
