Jerk Pan parks on the corner of 48th Street and Park Avenue nearly every weekday, drawing office-lunch crowds from the surrounding Midtown East towers, according to The Infatuation's review. Search-aggregated customer feedback (via Yelp and food-truck directories) describes the line as 'long because it's popular,' with phone orders sometimes hard to get through during the lunch rush.
Regulars work around the wait by calling ahead or ordering for pickup rather than queuing at the window, per customer reports surfaced in search results. Service is described as friendly and efficient despite the crowds, but the truck's single-window setup means the line can back up fast during the core 12-1:30pm lunch window.
