“ Amazing food and the portions are also generous. There are a few picnic tables at the site. It was our first visit and we'll definitely come back for more. If you haven't tried, please do so - we need this place to stay open ”

Jungsoo Kim

“ Let me tell you !! This man needs his own restaraunt. His food is a 12 out of 10. The steak sandwich is tender, full of flavour and so easy to eat. The bread is toasted to perfection. Then the jerk chicken, rice, coleslaw should be a signature dish! It was fall off the bone and not at all what you would expect from a food truck. This is truly an incredible stop to get a bite. Highly highly recommend! Oh wait I almost forgot the Cajun fries !! To die for! ”

Ashley Goncalves

“ The steak frites smothered in fresh chimichurri and garlic sauce are incredible. Fries were fresh and crisp, steak was perfectly cooked to order (medium rare for me). ”

Rob Emerson

“ the smash burger is "WOOOW" ONE OF THE BEST BURGERS I HAVE EVER EATEN!!! the owner is also friendly and a pleasure to deal with as a natural skill of creating delicious food. for a small little food truck puts out big taste. highly recommend you come enjoy one of these burgers! ”

Matt Kulesza

“ Stopped by for lunch while working and was not disappointed. Grabbed a loaded burger (minus the pickles and jalapeños) and it was just unfair how delicious it actually was. Owner is very friendly and personable, you can tell he takes pride in his trade. Definitely coming back there’s just too many great options on the menu. ”

Joseph Luck

“ Great food truck... like you always hear, the best food is at the least expected locations. I talked with the owner ( very personable and friendly) and decided on the steak sandwich. Its been a long time since I've had a good steak sandwich and he delivered. Fantastic sandwich.. the steak was plentiful and not lost in the baguette. The sauces on the steak added the perfect flavor with some mild heat. The shaved fries (reminded me of hickory sticks) were perfect as a side and/or put on the sandwich. All in all... ill definitely be back to try out some of their dishes on the menu. Highly recommend you try it out. I had already eaten half the sandwich and most of the fries in this pic. ”

Drew Mallard

“ Solid experience! Great chatting with the owner. Ordered the steak sandwich, smash burger, jerk chicken and a poutine. Everything was amazing and the one man show cranked that meal out so efficiently! Everything tastes great. Highlight for me was the smash burger. Whatever sauce they use, it’s crack! ”

Paul Tran

“ We had an amazing first visit to Yopa’s Grill Charcoal BBQ. The jerk chicken was packed with flavour and had just the right amount of heat, while the steak sandwich was juicy, perfectly seasoned, and grilled to perfection. Portions were very generous—great value for the price. You can really taste the care that goes into the food here. We’ll definitely be back! ”
