    Fried salmon
    Chris L.

    Walking back to my hotel and found this place/food truck. Food is made fresh by one guy. Waited maybe 10 minutes but would have easily waited longer. Great variety and could keep going.

    Alfredo Fettuccine with Shrimp and Chicken

    Gemmy knows exactly what he is doing when it comes to this kind of comfort food! I ordered a Philly Cheesesteak with fries. The flavor on the Sando is phenomenal and the beef is tender. The roll was very fresh and the fries had a really good seasoning. I also ordered the Alfredo Fettuccine with Shrimp and Chicken. First, the portion is absolutely worth each penny. Secondly, the Chef was not skimpy on the shrimp or chicken. Lastly, the buttery sauce is so damn good. This meal is definitely something that can be shared or you can have leftovers. I will definitely keep this truck in mind for lunch and breakfast. If you are near LA live, you MUST check this truck out.

    Some menu items offered

    Service was excellent. Very attentive and kind. Haven't tried the food yet. I have a feeling it's going to be great because he set the tone.

    Man... I have slept on this place and boy do i regret it! This place is absolutely amazing! He can make you one of the best smash burgers you've had or a pasta that is straight up better than majority of the italian restaurant's in Los Angeles. 5 star chef - 5 star food and huge portions. You can't miss here! Everything is amazing! The crab egg rolls, fish or shrimp tacos are the business! Slap yourself if you haven't tried this place yet! Great food and even better service!

    Wow I was left absolutely speechless by the Cajun shrimp and chicken pasta! DELICIOUS!! My daughter got the smashed burger The chef sauce on that burger is one of the best I've tried! She usually eats her burgers with ranch and ketchup! But I was surprised when she didn't reach for it!! We will definitely be returning! Also very clean and very nice!

    So good ! Everything is worth it !

    I must say I've tried at least 5 to 6 things from there and everything was amazing ! They didn't miss on not one meal ! Everything was fresh and hot ! Cheesesteak egg rolls phenomenal ! Crab cake pasta top tier ! Mahi sandwich elite ! Fried shrimp was scrumptious ! I wish they had more flavorful food like this in LA . I will be back for more ! I wish they'd add more stars the food was so good !

    Mani mani tacos. Needed salsa or dipping sauce.

    Misnomer. When I saw the name of this food truck, I thought this might be Central American's "soul"…read morefood, but it was actually US Southern soul food with a little Latin twist. The only Latin American ingredients were tortilla, store-bought chips and their mango salsa (which was good). I like the idea of putting southern food in tortilla for convenient, food-truck dining, but I would expect a bit more blending of the two cuisines with its name. Zora Neale's Special: perfectly seasoned and grilled tilapia with greens (kale) and Mac n' cheese for $12. They serve it in a hamburger styrofoam box, so it looks rather small, but they load it and are very generous with the portions! I couldn't finish it in one sitting. I must say the greens and Mac n' cheese were quite salty, though. 3 Taco Special: your choice of chicken, beef brisket, fish and/or oxtail(!), which comes with store-bought chips and their mango salsa for $12. Each taco is regularly priced at $4. They allow you to order different kinds of meat per order, which is nice, but they didn't have oxtail at this time. :( The beef brisket was good, but again, a tad on the salty side. For sides, I tried the plantain chips and sweet potato fries. The plantain chips were not chips at all, but fried plantains, which were delicious, but we expected chips. The sweet potato fries were crispy and seasoned just right. I also ordered what I thought was watermelon juice, but it was really sugary lemonade with a few pieces of watermelon in it. Again, not what I was expecting. :/ The staff working in the truck was really nice, though, and tried to get orders out quickly.

    Absolutely delicious!!! Service was great. The staff recommended this dish, and it was prepared in…read moreless than 5 minutes. It may look small, but trust me, it's so filling!! It's called the Maya-a. The meat is a tangy sweet bbq sauce with delicious tender pulled pork on top of well done mac n cheese and jalapeno cornbread underneath. I'm still dreaming of the next time I can order this deliciousness!!

    AMAZING. So efficient, very clean, love being able to see them prep food at the bar area…read more Pulpo a la brasas - low key a must, octopus is so tender. Didn't care much for the rice/beans but not bad. Comes with blue corn tortillas, but honestly the octopus and almond sauce (think b*tchin' sauce) were delicious. Great cherry tomato pico de gallo. Scallop aguachile - wowwww the scallops were so fresh, literally bursting is my mouth. They were sweet, tender, and perfectly paired with the tangy lime sauce. Taco de pulpo - ok so this is pretty much an assembled pulpo à la brasas, BUT I will say the full meal was more tender because it was an entire grilled piece of grilled vs one tentacle. If with a group, def recommend getting the entree to split vs individual tacos. Smoked kanoachi tostado - delicioussssss the smoked kanoachi (amberjack) was the perfect glue for the ceviche. Another banger. I was at capacity at this point, but the only change I'd make is swapping the taco de pulpo for the ahi tostado. So really, Holbox did everything right, and was so good it's gaslighting me into how I could have ordered more strategically. I arrived around 3:45pm on a Sunday, and the line wrapped around the corner. Bar seats are FCFS, so use that information wisely...and you may get seated immediately :P

    Consistently good and I'm appalled at myself for not writing a review until now. I would personally…read morecome on the weekdays during in between meal times for the shortest wait. There is a private lot but fills up, and there's also adjacent street parking. I love sitting at the bar and seeing the plate being prepared. Also love the open freezers so you can see the fresh seafood hanging. Another standout was the homemade hot sauces! Each had a distinct flavor from sweet, smokey, and hot so it was really fun to try. The ceviches and the raw cold dishes were my favorite, especially the scallop aguachile! SO GOOD. Would order that 100 times.
