    Being out all day didnt feel like cooling then it turns out my local truck was gone. Usually Ruta Cien is here with CDMX style menus but EMT is here and open late night. Cabeza, tripa and lengua tacos were solid. TI appreciate the crujiente action on the tripa. The only way to make it better is with home made tortillas. But hey they were good. The ladies working the trucks were super friendly. Definitely will come back for other menu items ...4.5 stars

    ACTUALLY PERFECT BURRITO. I had the carne asada super burrito: steak, beans, rice, cheese, guacamole, sour cream and pico. Anyone can throw these ingredients together but the meat, tortilla and the distribution of the ingredients. The steak was juicy but not oily, and was not too salty. The flour tortilla was soft and gooey. The ingredients were in a nice ratio (not too much rice, good balance of meat and beans), and were evenly distributed. Overall 10/10 will be back tomorrow.

    The world needs more burritos like these. I appreciate the friendly service and recommend the grilled jalapeños.

    I was a bit confused when I walked up expecting a food truck and only saw chairs outside, looks…read morelike they're going to lease the restaurant building that was previously there and one of the owners said that they will have 3 separate restaurants there, Olivia Bros, a pizza place, and a burger place--how exciting! I had a really nice chat with one of the owners there and they all seem like really lovely people--kind hearted with little kids around so hopefully they stay around for some time! They were still redoing the front of house so not sure when they will open fully but looking forward to trying more Azerbaijan food. Since I've never had Azerbaijan food before, I asked for a recommendation and he said all of the food is good but did say that the chicken shawarma was big and I was feeling a bit hungry so went with that. It came with fries and some peppers, which reminded me of banana peppers. Not spicy with a briney taste to it, great accompaniment. He also tossed in this yogurt drink (I didn't get the name) that was tasty. Overall, good food and will be back to try their lamb kebabs and the burger as well and interested to see what their pizzas will be like as well. Love seeing small family businesses like this and hope they do well!

    Amazing Chicken Shawarma wrap! Loaded with chicken and that was the last part. It's heavy on sauce…read moretoo and that does make it delicious, but watch the calories/fat if you are particular. This is their most recommended dish and for good reason. Side of fries were nice and crispy too: I also tried the grilled chicken plate and that was pretty good as well. Again, good portion! On my first visit, they offered a drink for free and I tasted the Ayran (yogurt based drink). Friendly people. Next time, I'll try the Baku Chicken sandwich. Btw, it's in a small parking lot next to a restaurant, and you should have parking spots at the back. There always seems to be a decent crowd occupying the tables near the food truck.

The food was okay and definitely not bad, but it didn't really stand out as anything exceptional for me especially given the exceptional reviews. I am a big fan of Mexican food, so I have a high bar. The burritos were fine and filling, but the flavors didn't quite wow me the way I was hoping based on the hype. Overall, it's a decent option if you're nearby or craving some Mexican food. It's located in a parking lot of a gas station and there is another food truck next to it. Service is fairly good, they are efficient.

La Familia folks will do up all the usual, tacos, burritos etc. custom when you order. Tacos are on the small side but good. Got the al pastor and carne asada. Some sliced radish, onion, salsa and hot hot jalapeño peppers come as the sides or garnish. The fellow taking the order was helpful and nice. Another person cooks it up for customers. Service was courteous. An enclosed outdoor tent with long benches and small tables is directly next-door to the truck. Maybe this is typical? Extra star for such an accommodating pleasant set-up at a quality taqueria truck in the middle of quasi-suburbia.

I originally wanted tacos (which was unavailable) but noticed this food truck instead. For reference, I've never tried Nepalese/Indo-Chinese food, so I figured I would give it a shot. The guy running the food truck is soft-spoken but was able to provide suggestions. When I asked what was popular, he told me that people try the dumplings, so I ordered one (1), which come in a set of 8. Each one is about the size of two quarters in diameter (for scale). It comes with sauces on the spicy side. I figured that alone wasn't enough to alleviate my hunger pangs, so I ordered the Paneer Chow Mein and Mango Lassi, too. My order came out after 15 minutes. In the meantime, I waited under the tent that was stationed with a dining table next to the truck. Paneer Chow Mein - 6/10. Tastes like your average standard Chow Mein. I didn't know what paneer was, but after a quick Google search, it's cheese with the look, texture and taste of tofu. I ate enough to send me into a food coma. The guy packed plenty into the container (and I barely made a dent), so I rated it higher. Chicken Momo (Dumplings) - 7/10. What you'd expect of a chinese steamed dumpling but with a slight twist. I don't have a diverse culinary palate, but there was a hint of a curry(esque) flavor in the filling. Delicious with the sauces. Mango Lassi - 1000000/10. I am a sweet tooth and woah....I absolutely love this drink. It is an Indian mango yogurt drink that is not too thick or sickly sweet. It has a thick consistency and was perfect to have during the summer as a dessert. It was about $4 for 12oz but I had to order another one for the road because it is exactly what I needed. Overall, I would stop by again if I needed something to curb my empty stomach.

    Based on the dishes we tried, I don't think I'd recommend this place. My friends and I shared the…read moredahi batata puri, chinese bhel, and ragda pattice. The best of the bunch was the dahi batata puri, but it still didn't quite hit the spot. It was definitely on the sweeter side and I felt like the dahi/yogurt wasn't as creamy as I prefer. The chinese bhel was okay, but didn't have much flavor. Lastly the ragda pattice had so much potential. The flavor was there, but it was insanely spicy- even as someone with a med/high spice tolerance. You could feel the burn traveling down to your stomach. All of us found it unbearable and worse of all felt the affects for a day after. Perhaps we ordered the wrong dishes but after the all the discomfort of the meal- I don't feel inclined to return.

    I'm not one to write negative reviews often, but this experience at Maya Kitchen Food Truck in…read moreSunnyvale-Cupertino Border warrants it. Yesterday, I ordered a Vada Pav, Shalimar Egg Mughlai (on their recommendation from their list of egg dishes), and a Veg Frankie -- and honestly, none of it lived up to the hype(5 stars currently) or price point. Vada Pav: It was okay. The "mirchi" served alongside was literally a raw Thai green chili. Really? At least pan-fry it with some salt and oil to enhance the flavor. For over $10 with taxes, this was already pricier than better Vada Pavs you can get at places like Elco Drive, and yet it offered nothing exceptional. Frankie: This one made me genuinely angry. It was a soggy maida roll stuffed with the same aloo masala from the Vada Pav, plus a few sad shreds of cabbage. That's it. And they had the audacity to charge $12 for it. ($1.50 for cheese, lol I am glad we didn't add)This isn't a Frankie -- it's a lazy repackaged Vada Pav with no flavor or creativity. They threw in some pickled jalapeños on the side, which only added confusion. If you're running a fusion menu(well partially), at least mention it upfront instead of misleading customers. Egg Shalimar Mughlai: At $13, it was passable but still not impressive. The bun on the side was not toasted or anything. Better than the Frankie, but nothing I'd recommend or return for. I was so excited for trying this place but, overall, this place is overpriced, underwhelming, and frankly disappointing. If your Vada Pav and Frankie are practically identical, maybe inform customers before they order both. I wouldn't recommend Maya Kitchen -- save your time, appetite and money and go somewhere else. Thank me later.
