The Sansglu take

The place

A dedicated gluten-free food trailer parked at Pink Flamingo FC on McNeil Drive in North Austin. TRU LUV serves Colombian empanadas and single-origin coffee from a compact counter-service window. The trailer operates Thursday through Sunday only and closes Monday through Wednesday.

The gluten-free setup

The trailer is reported as a dedicated gluten-free operation. All empanadas use handmade corn masa. No wheat flour is present on the premises. The facility is a self-contained food trailer, which limits shared-equipment risk by design.

What to order

The menu lists The O.G. beef empanada: shredded beef chuck with egg, potatoes, and Latin seasoning. Ask for the Chimba Sauce on the side, made from fresh ingredients. The Colombian Pink Bourbon single-origin coffee pairs well. For dessert, look for the Tres Amores Sundae with arequipe, JET chocolate, and a gluten-free waffle.

The move

Check their Instagram (@truluv_atx) before heading out. The trailer runs Thursday through Sunday only, and hours can shift. Call ahead at (512) 784-7878 to confirm they are open that day.
