text: I have been eating at a lot of food trucks lately and I can honestly say this is one of if not the best one I have had It is been around since early and has been active at Charlottes bustling Food Truck Friday since Januaryyet it has no press here on Yelp That is unheard ofnnThe good folks who own and operate this truck are from North Carolina but lived in New Orleans for a bit of time and boy oh boy did they learn some good cooking while they were down there This Creole food has all the flavor of home cooking the convenience of a food truck and the quality and presentation of a stellar restaurant The prices seem reasonable toothough I live in DC so I might be super jaded which it comes to pricesnnThe red beans and rice were the most amazing dish I had from Root Downand at the entire Food Truck Friday event last week I have made RBR myself and they were awesome Root Down made them look like a childs attempt at cooking The gumbo was a close second favorite for items and had I not already eaten more than my share of other items I would have happily ordered my own bowl The catfish po boy was a full meal and at just and though there was a sizable portion of fried catfish on there it must be noted that the bread was pretty big hence why it could be an entire meal in and of itself The homemade tartar sauce and micro greens on it added flavor and color making it a beautiful dish of perfectly fried and seasoned fish My table mates raved about the mac and cheese but damnit for being too proper and not wanting to eat off of Kerricks spoon on the second occasion I met him Serves me right The sweet potato chips were dusted with powdered sugar and were the only disappointment of the truck The little snack was a filler and nothing else Save the space and order a second serving of RBRnnThe next time we are back in Charlotte I hope to have some more Root Down cookin I hope they open a restaurant so that it will be more accessable for every time we go visit the family
