So I am a bit late with this review but we did enjoy the food. It was my first experience with Thai…read morefood and I was a bit reluctant at first. We encountered this particular food truck at an event at Ridge Community High School and I thought it an odd choice but we decided to give them a try. After reviewing the menu we spoke to the gentleman working the outside about the offerings. He explained that everything is made to order and we could special order however we wanted based on what they had available. We ordered the Thai Sweet and Sour with chicken and an order of Thai Egg Rolls. The first thing you have to realize is that is is all quite different from what most of us are used to when we get Chinese food in this country. There is some similarity and yet they are very different. You can choose the level of heat you want with this food. We went mild as I was sharing with my children. The food had wonderful flavor and we ate all of it between 3 of us. We each got an egg roll and they were also very different from what we were used to and they were fabulous. One of the big things for me is that it made me want to try more offerings from food trucks as they can offer more variety than most restaurants over time. Menus may be limited but the trucks I have tried from seem to all take a lot of pride in what they serve. Given the opportunity I would try more from this one. The food was awesome and the people working it were friendly and very helpful.

I received my order about 20 minutes later. There was a clump of hot chili paste on some of the noodles. It was spicy. They threw the hot sauce on and didn't mix it. I have had better Thai food. It was ehhh for food truck. Had better quality pad Thai elsewhere for sure. I was super hungry though so I ate the majority of the pad Thai except for the clumps of noodles that had the hot chili paste.

They do have some seating inside but I've never seen anyone actually sit down there to eat, for some reason. They have pretty fast service which is definitely a plus. It's a big menu but the quality definitely depends on what you get. I like their sweet and sour sauce and the lo mein noodles are normally pretty good. They also have several types of chicken wings you can get that aren't too bad.

We got takeout from here... my in-laws say they order from this place all the time, so we agreed to…read moreget food for the family Friday night. They had the usual lineup ready to go... sweet and sour chicken, bourbon chicken, chicken lo mien, Mongolian beef, and fried rice. We were going to get honey chicken but decided to try the sweet and spicy chicken instead... figured we'd switch it up. The sweet and sour chicken had a nice crispy crust and the texture was great... definitely a hit with the kids. I didn't care much for the fried rice though... it was kind of dry, not much seasoning or veggies, and looked more like brown rice than that yellow fried rice we usually see back home. The cream cheese wontons were packed ... like really packed .... with cream cheese. Maybe too much. Would've liked a little crab meat or some chives in there... something to break up the richness. The rest of the food was solid and we all found something to enjoy. The sweet and spicy chicken was the odd man out... I thought it'd be battered chicken in a sticky honey sauce, maybe with peppers. What we got was more like white sliced chicken with onions, bamboo shoots, baby corn, snow peas... in a light white sauce with some pepper flakes. Not what I expected, but it had a unique flavor and a good mix of textures. My in-laws seemed happy with it all... I'm still curious to see what else is on the menu next time. I will say the takeout was well packaged and organized... everything traveled just fine.

We were in town and decided to have Chinese food for lunch. Found this place nearby and decided to…read moretry it out. Overall we were sadly disappointed. The gal working the counter seemed uninterested and couldn't even feign a smile. The interior itself was bleak, with faded signage above the counter and a few wooden tables and chairs around the perimeter. But we were not here to make friends with staff or have a romantic dinner, we were here for the food, but still... I ordered the General Tsao chicken and the better half ordered the Sesame Chicken; with an order of pork wontons to split. The food came out hot and fresh, albeit bagged into to-go containers even though we were dining in. The food was not hateful, just average. Albeit both dishes had ample chicken pieces, they were kind of large overall; especially in the Sesame Chicken. My General Tsao had ZERO heat to it (and they advertise it as having heat). It was actually on the sweeter side, like an Orange Chicken would be. We decided to taste test each others dishes and the taste was nearly identical, hmmmmmmmmmm I wonder why. The side of yellow "pork" fried rice that came with the main entrees was palatable, but nothing great with tiny pieces of pork hidden within it and some not fully cooked pieces of onion. The pork fried wontons were actually fairly decent, but the sweet & sour dipping sauce was straight up from a bottle. I usually consume all my Chinese food in one sitting, but since it wasn't very fulfilling I packed up half of it to go. I later ate the other half for dinner, after spicing it up with some red pepper which helped make it pop. I doubt we will ever eat here again, but if we do for some reason I'll update this review of two stars (it could've been better).
