COMFORT FOOD

Born In Brooklyn is a San Diego-based food truck that brings bold, East-Coast-inspired comfort food to the West Coast. The mobile kitchen specializes in inventive takes on burgers, grilled sandwiches, hero-style sandwiches, and deep-fried indulgences — all served with a nod to Brooklyn flavor and attitude. From “The NYC” burger stacked with a fried mac-and-cheese ball to meatball marinara grilled cheeses and veggie options, the menu blends creative flair with familiar street-food favorites.
