So many fun sandwiches and wraps to choose from. I ordered the avocado stack sandwich, which was avocado, French fries and feta cheese. Really creamy and tasty! The feta was such a great choice on hot fries and melted nicely and I love avocado. Really friendly guys. Glad I tried it. read more

Where last I left off on my Hungry Nomad Truck story, it was after one encounter but not an opportunity to try the food. It is a food truck after all, so I was very eager to tackle some actual grub. Lucky for me they showed up near my work and I've now put that curiosity to rest. "FATTOUSH SALAD A Lebanese salad made with crispy za'atar chips, romaine lettuce, tomato, cucumber, green peppers & fresh mint in a classic lemon vinaigrette. Topped with warm lentils, bulgur and caramelized onions" Pardon my language, but YES FUCKING PLEASE. At least I added "please" in there, that's better right? I try not to show poor language in my reviews unless I'm overly pissed off, but in this case that salad deserves even more than one F bomb if you ask me. I've had plenty a fattoush salad in my day but this one was stellar. The greens were vibrant, the herbs robust, and the warm lentils over the top were pure genius. If I'm going to eat a salad for lunch I prefer it to be substantial and the lentils did the trick. And the Za'atar Chips that came with it? Crazy good. I had to ask the crew what the hell was even on them because there were so many flavors flying from all over the place. Wow. I'm so glad this truck stumbled on over to Culver City, it was such a treat. Food Truck Central over here has lots of trucks Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays but over half of them seem to be burgers and hot dogs and philly cheese steaks. Not my gig, plus there are greasy food restaurants all over the place already anyway. I'll take some some fresh, healthy, and crazy delicious Lebanese food instead, any day of the week. read more

My first time ordering from the Nomad Truck...I opted for the Chicken Pesto sandwich $8.50 (http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/hsM20IHRn0saeEOchD1GzA?select=IGrADBfhSIrSjcrgycO3rg#OidNVI-Cr1l5GeJFjBuhkQ) There was no one in line...just me, myself and I. I was given a ticket number when I paid for my order. I waited about 10 mins. When they called me, I reached out for my order....that girl would not give me my order until I give her my ticket. I looked around...I swear there's a weed tumbling down the street, THERE IS NO ONE HERE BUT ME! Okay whatever, I gave her my ticket and took my lunch back to work. Back to the sandwich, the Chicken Pesto was pretty good...healthy, light and good balance of flavors. It's a pretty big sandwich so you're getting a good bang for your buck (I saved half for dinner). Overall an average food truck, nothing really lit my fire....however much better than eating food from my work's cafeteria. read more

Hungry Nomad Truck - Chicken pesto sandwich $8.50 - Street Vendors Near Me

This truck was really hard to find among the crowd of hungry people, street vendors, demonstrations, and restaurants. I really wanted to try some Armenian food.... I'm glad we ended up finding it since it was one of my favorite trucks at the Eat Real Festival :) Their chicken pesto sandwich was delicious - yummy seasoned chicken, warm provolone cheese along with sundried tomatoes, avocado and pesto - all served in a warm crunchy baguette. I'm usually not a big fan of pesto because some places overdo it, but this one was just right. I'm glad I followed the cashier's suggestion. Their steak sandwich was pretty good too, but it doesn't beat the one I had :) I wanted to try some of their wraps; however, they were all sold out :( Portion was a bit small though, but I think a lot of the food trucks cut down on their sizes since it was crowded. I definitely need to hit this truck up again if it's around my area. read more

Since we have no cafeteria in our new building at work, we are having several gourmet trucks come during lunch. The Hungry Nomad Truck is the first of many. So the prices are decent. The main items they serve are pictured on their menu and look fairly simple. A majority of the items don't have meat in them except for the chicken pesto sandwich, beef pocket, and minced beef wrap. The had a special item posted for Grilled Sirloin steak w/ provolone cheese, tomato, lettuce, pepperoncini & tahini sauce for $7.49.(on the white paper) PHOTO (http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/hsM20IHRn0saeEOchD1GzA?select=GmtZj_ZtKLWpJWguVa8OJA) I ended up ordering the Za'atar Feta Wrap at $5.49 and a Tahini Cookie at $2.49. The lady asked if I would like Nutella, Peanut Butter or Jelly on my cookie... OOOH Nutella!! Hell yea.. PHOTO (http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/hsM20IHRn0saeEOchD1GzA?select=NDdgJfOBfCW8tivnOi0wMQ) Overall my wrap was good. It had plenty of flavor, but had too many seeds and was too tangy for my taste. (which the lady did warn me after I ordered). PHOTO (http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/hsM20IHRn0saeEOchD1GzA?userid=JXt_vd2l_SkhFZdablieUg) The cookie was "OK". My coworkers all ordered different items, so I had a chance to check out all the menu items. If I were to order from the truck again, I would try the minced beef wrap and Fattoush salad. Their fries are huge as well.... read more

Chicken pesto is worth getting every time as far as I'm concerned. Had them at a YELP event, then they gave out a coupon so I had them again.. then they showed up as a food truck at the Oscars Outdoors --- all three times I got the pesto. One of my favorite sammies ever. read more

Beef Empanadas with yogurt on top of it, not my kind of idea of empanadas. Maybe I've so used to Argentinian empanadas, that this Armenian empanadas totally "blew" me away, not in a good way. I didn't want to even come back to try this anymore. The Beef inside the empanadas had good flavor, but beef and yogurt didn't seem to go together well in my palate. The potato salad was different, but not the flavor that I was expected, kinda sour. They kept suggesting the same food to order if you ask what's good, so what's the point of a menu if you gonna keep pointing to the same food over and over. In any case, I don't really like this truck, so definitely not coming back in near future. read more

My half-Armenian co-worker was RAVING about how we had to try this place so try it we did. Not a whole lot of menu options if you want something veggie. I picked the Fattoush salad for $6-something and then when I ordered the girl asked if I wanted steak with that...of course I immediately answered "yes" without contemplating the consequences on my diet and my wallet. There went my plan to eat no meat for the day...and there went $10...for a salad! The salad WAS pretty damn delicious though. Not too heavy on the dressing and plenty of lentils. For $4 extra you'd think they'd pile the meat on but it was kind of a paltry portion. Thinking about portion control though it was exactly perfect to fill my tummy but not OVER fill it. So, thumbs down for portion vs price but thumbs up for portion vs appetite. I also really appreciate that the food is served in "open-air" containers so you can just dig right in and start eating like on the walk back to my office instead of fumbling around with excessive lids or packaging or heaven forbid just waiting another 5 minutes to get back to the lunch room at the office. read more

Hungry Nomad Truck - Fattoush salad with steak - Street Vendors Near Me

Awesomeness. Total awesomeness. If I could, I would pay to have this truck parked in front of my house every night. If savory is one of your love languages (don't argue with me, savory IS a love language), go hungry for the entire day and then binge eat here. The smells of this truck will drive your hunger to zombie-frenzy heights. You'll have food on your face and you won't care. You won't want to offer your girlfriend a bite. You'll cut in line to get a second order of what you just ordered. I had the blue cheesesteak sandwich and I must have eaten it in four bites. I don't even remember chewing. I just inhaled it. And I made a concerted effort to not inhale my food years ago. Okay, so this review has a lot of hyperbole. But the Hungry Nomad has the kind of goodness that elicits hyperbole. read more

Below is the nice PM I got from Mike who (I presume) is the truck owner. He has made changes regarding the price of soda and the posting of the No-Smoking sign based on my review; and he raises some good points regarding wait time. You can't fault them for choosing quality over speed. And in re-reading my review I should have done a better job pointing out that the wait was not due to inefficiency, -+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ Hi Bill this is Mike from the Hungry Nomad. Thanks for giving us your feedback. During our first few months in business reviews especially detailed ones like yours help us improve and grow. Without feedback from our customers it would be difficult to know these things. I have noted what you talked about and made some immediate changes. The Non-smoking sign which I have forgotten to put up on the truck has been posted (thanks to your reminder) also the Diet Coke price is being reduced to $2.00 like the bottle of reg. coke/pepsi. RE wait time: we don't have or believe in steam tables all our items are cooked to order so the wait for a steak, chicken pesto or Fattosh salad w/steak usually takes the longest I would love to know what we can do to earn more stars especially from experienced yelpers? I hope you stop by soon (just ask for Tina or me Mike and we'll take care of you on the house/ or truck :) Hope to see you soon. read more

I had the grilled chicken salad today. While the amount of food was good, the taste was fairly plain. I would have wanted just a bit more flavor in the dressing. read more

The Nomad Steak Sandwich is my meal of choice. Really good for the money. The seasoned fries are tasty as well. Another truck I can add to my list and they can count on me to visit them every time they are near the office. Until next time. **2 thumbs up** read more

I've never seen the Hungry Nomad Truck but it's interesting name and decor had me more than intrigued and so I approached the fascinating truck. The good news for the truck is that I was looking for a good salad to nibble on today and there are some great salad choices available. (They also have sandwiches and wraps...very Mediterranean.) I chose the fattuosh salad for about $7 by itself (I added in chicken which bumped it up to about $10). The end was fascinating. The portion size was more than generous and filling. The salad it self was a fascinating taste with a bit of sour and salty mixed in with lentils, mint and tomatoes surrounded by pieces of absolutely delicious za'tar chips that had an interesting spice that I could not put my finger on. It was so fascinating in fact that the added chicken was probably the most disappointing part of the dish, feeling more like an afterthought than an integral part. If you do order the fattoush salad and don't mind skipping the protein, I believe you're in for the better experience. All-in-all, the Hungry Nomad left me with a very positive experience. Yes, it's a bit pricey and not all the ingredients are the best but the flavors are definitely awesome, the portion size is generous and out of many food trucks, it's great to have a salad option that is worthwhile. read more

Chicken wrap is usually a safe overall bet at any eatery, but for somehow the Hungry Nomad seemed to mess it out. It's most likely because their chicken comes out of a giant costco sized bag and seasoned a bit. I thought the whole point of food trucks is that they're innovative and fresh, I guess that was only in the beginning of the food truck movement. read more

I think I will crave this later! The Chicken Pesto Sandwich was BOMB! My coworker got the zinu chips (or whatever its called) with his sandwich and it was just okay... but we both agree that the Chicken Pesto Sandwich was scrumptious! Nice little shredded pieces of chicken with the most awesomest pesto sauce! I could definitely see myself seeking out this truck just for this sandwich if I get a craving. A definite try and try again. read more

I was contacted by Mike M who apologized for the mishap and that their regular chef was out sick this day. Customer service means a lot, so I'll give him the benefit of the doubt and try them again if we ever cross paths again. read more

My friend and I just spent $15.00 each on a meal worth only $8 at best. We both ordered the Mediterranean Steak sandwich and garlic fries. The fries did not have fresh garlic, but garlic powder. I dove in thinking fresh garlic was in there somewhere...NOT! On top of that, I ask my steak to be cooked medium well....NOT. I had dry well done. I did not taste the meat until I got back to my desk. I wish I could blame this on the fact that they were crowded, but I cannot, as we were the very 1st customer for the day. The only thing we ate were the fake garlic fries. My friend started getting sick (nauseated) from a sauce that she specially ask if nuts/nut oils were used to prepare the sauce. The gentleman stated no. She took her finger and tasted it....told him she tasted nuts, he then said to be honest with you, I am not sure what is in it after saying no and gave her a different sauce. Staff should be more knowledgeable of allergens in food and let customers know so that they aware of the potential health danger. People have died from allergic reactions. read more

Yay! I got the pleasure of eating from the Hungry Nomad Truck this evening at the UCLA Health Training Center. I had the Mediterranean steak sandwich and the bleu cheese steak sandwich with french fries. The food was delicious and the service was excellent! Big shout out to Isaac and Anthony for their over-the-top QUALITY service! This was a great experience! read more

These guys are crazy good !! I saw them today in Malibu. The guy at the window, I believe Sal was his name, was so incredibly sweet and helpful! I was debating between their chicken pesto sandwich and their grilled onion and mushroom chicken sandwich. I was a little iffy about the pesto sandwich because I do not like avocados, but they were sweet enough to offer to exclude the avocados. SOLD! As always, I forgot to take a picture but it looked AMAZING! Just the right amount of sauce, sundried tomatoes and chicken. I am a crazy food truck fanatic and these guys are definitely on top of my list :)) Yay Hungry Nomad, hope to see you guys in LA. read more

Grabbed a sandwich and fries from this truck at the brewery art walk. The chicks. Pesto sandwich was incredible. Flavorful pesto, delicious meat and a nice bun. Just a delight. The truck was well stocked with ice cold beverages and the staff was friendly and fast. Only gripe would be the fries. The garlic fries were a 2.5 out of five. Nothing terrible with them, but also nothing notable. I would call them "lightly seasoned" instead of "garlic". Still, this truck is a can't miss if you see it in your neighborhood. read more

Who orders a chicken pesto sandwich from a Mediterranean food truck? This woman does. And you know what, it actually tasted somewhat Mediterranean-ey and not like a standard chicken pesto sandwich. It was better than I expected! The chicken was shredded, rather than sliced or cubed, which made it easy to eat and pretty evenly distributed throughout the sandwich. The spread - whatever they put in that stuff - had great consistency and kept the thing glued together. Bonus points for Mexican Coke. Yes, I'm a fan! read more

Thanks to food truck buddy Bill C. I got to enjoy the Hungry Nomad truck without standing in their line. I had my friend order up some stand by hummus for me and he agreed to share the cheese trilogy too. What a lucky girl?! Hummus is one of my favorite foods but I am, admittedly, a bit of a snob about it. Out of respect for Hungry Nomad, I won't name who has my favorite hummus but I do hold all hummus to said favorite hummus standard. (How many times can one say hummus in a single sentence?) I found this hummus to be a little grainy for my tastes. It didn't have that smooth texture I so desire. The flavor was good and I did like that it came with a generous swirl of olive oil. The pita on the other hand was very bland and a little chewy. Meh, I ate a few bites of hummus with my spoon and moved on. The cheese trilogy was much softer than I thought it would be. It was a light, soft bread that was pretty yummy. The inside cheese was rather one noted for a trilogy but still good. Sometimes I like one noted cheese trilogies. I did expect a little bit more from my Hungry Nomad experience. I think I wanted this truck to really put Middle Eastern truck food on the map and it fell a little short. Sigh, maybe next time.... read more

I had the Hungry Nomad at a pop up food festival toys for tots event. Over all, I have to say it was alright with a few slight improvements and tweaks to make it a memorable and exciting new food truck on the scene. First off, the service was so-so. The very enthusiastic person taking the orders outside the truck may be nice in telling you about the dishes, but when they're telling you something on their menu isn't great or advising against one thing for another, perhaps you shouldn't put your own items on the truck down... Then while it's good on paper, this whole act gives you the illusion that your food is going to take less time to prepare as the order is in. Nope. It doesn't seem like your food is even started on till you pay for it. So this whole act backfires on the truck as the time between ordering and the time you get your food just becomes a little longer. I also have to question the reasoning of getting my name when the person calling the orders won't even bother saying it and just states the order. A bit annoying given that the folks before me got their named called. At least give saying the name a try, won't you buddy? As for the food. The minced meat za'atar wrap was alright, though maybe the exotic spices didn't much agree with my stomach as I was repeating on me a bit. I would have gone with the meat empenadas but by the time I got to the truck they were all gone. Had also the za'atar chips. Which were alright, They're encrusted with a lot of herbs and spices that give a fairly good crunch to it. Comes with a dipping sauce that is pretty good. Over all, for the $2 spent on that, it was a good buy. The prices for most of the other menu items ranged from $4-6. So your mileage will vary when coming here. A bit on the higher end when it comes to street food, but still a worthy enough truck to stop by and give a chance if you're hungry and it's there. read more

Food Poisoning. My friend and i shared a chicken sandwich at about 9:30 AM Sunday morning 11-16-2014. We were at a walk to end epilepsy event in support of my aunt. It was about two hours after eating the sandwich i started to feel slightly nauseous......got home around 3:00 PM and had chills and extreme nausea......when i found out my friend had the exact same symptoms we realized it was food poisoning from the sandwich we shared.......that was the only food we shared. We both had chills and threw up later that evening and into the night. It is Monday night now and we feel much better but still a little weak. I never would have wrote this review if only i got sick, as it would have been hard to pinpoint the source.....the fact that we both got sick and the only food we shared was the sandwich is pretty clear to us it was the food truck. read more

Interesting looking food truck. As you know, most food places have yellow or red color since these colors supposedly entice your appetite. This truck, however, is splashed with a brown and black motif. Kinda remind me of a marshmallow brownie look. But as your mom always tell you, never judge a book by its cover. I ordered the Steak Sandwich with a side of fries. This sandwich is just average tasting. The steak was dry and was not very flavorful. I mean, a $1 Jr Whopper tasted better than this $7.95 sandwich. The fries were on par, it could have been a little more crispy though. I like the Nomad name, though. A Nomad is "someone with no fixed residence who roams around". Great description of a food truck. Maybe we can start a new lingo of calling food trucks "Nomads". On second thought, probably not... Overall, this Hungry Nomad Truck still left me Hungry and roaming around for tastier food. read more

Just alright. They had a few items printed on paper and taped to the truck with an image of the sandwich. My husband and I split the blue cheese steak sandwich. It had fries in it,aoli, steak, and blue cheese. It was saucy and not bad. If the steak was better it would have been way better. I don't think I will be back in line for this truck. read more

My review is in response to Scott M's review below. I was the event organizer who helped him. I did an investigation of the wait times and no one in the line had waited longer than 20 minutes. I stood with all of them until they got their food. They were good-natured and realized that this was not "fast food" but cooked to order. One person even sought me out later to tell me how good their food was. When Scott M. got to me, he was livid and stated that he had been waiting an hour and wanted his money back. I pulled his ticket, placed 11 minutes earlier, and got him an immediate refund. Not sure why he has any reason to complain. read more

Thankfully I didn't have to hunt this truck down! I attended a Yelp event last night and these guys were "catering" the event. Staff was super friendly and even handed out coupons for $10 off - so sweet! The mini-meal was fixed and overall the portions were a good size. I left the event full and happy. The meal came with: *Fatoush salad - this was alright, a little too sour/tangy for me, but the pita chips they topped it with had a nice crunch. *Pesto sandwich - delicious! chicken was tender and the bread was warm and soft. I liked the flavor of the pesto very much!! *Fries - sooo good! Kind of soft, I'm a soggy fry kinda gal, so definitely pleased with the texture and flavor. If I happen to cross paths with the Hungry Nomad again, you'll definitely see me lining up curbside! read more

The Hungry Nomad ventures onto Cal State LA about once a month for the past two quarters ever since the campus began scheduling at least one food truck visit per day to provide students with alternative food options. With their spin on classic sandwiches and salads that incorporate Mediterranean/Armenian flavors, one cannot help but abandon the overcrowded food court for a taste of something new and delicious. I absolutely love the chicken pesto sandwich! I usually avoid chicken sandwiches because they tend to be dry and under-seasoned, but The Hungry Nomad definitely knows how to season their white meat and are not skimping when it comes to that creamy pesto aioli sauce. In addition to the well-seasoned chicken and yummy pesto sauce, the sandwich comes with avocados, sun-dried tomatoes, provolone cheese, and is served on a fresh and crisp french roll. I've had this sandwich on three different occasions and each time it is consistently flavorful and satisfying - now my go-to lunch option when they're here at Cal State LA. When on campus, you can expect to find a line of students waiting to place their order in. Though I have had to wait for a short while in line, the food does not take too long to come out. With food trucks you've got to be realistic - its a small kitchen, with usually 1 or 2 cooks, so don't place an order if you have a class starting in 5 minutes and its a 3 minute walk to the building and up the stairs; you simply will not get your food out in time. Originally their chicken pesto was priced at $8, but just recently I've noticed they raised their price to $9. Kinda bummed, but its still a really great sandwich that I'd choose over Carl's Jr. or Sabarro anyway. read more

Friday night I go out to Hollywood to eat at The Hungry Cat and then on Monday I'm eating at Hungry Nomad Truck in the parking lot of my office. Hunger is in the air. This is a decent truck specializing in modified pan middle eastern cuisine. I've eaten here twice and been tempted by and subsequently ordered the Extra Large Beef Pocket (Beorek) both times. I've also had a side of hummus alongside. If Hungry Nomad Truck is in the area its worth checking out. read more

The film shoot I was working on hired the Hungry Nomad truck to come feed us all (250 people). I wasn't sure what to expect, maybe gyros or kabobs, but was pleasantly surprised to see sandwiches on the menu. I ordered the chicken and pesto sandwich with fries. The bread was incredible. It was warm, soft and had a nice sprinkling of salt on it. The chicken was moist and delicious, and the toppings added worked perfectly. The fries had just the right amount of crispiness, and the flavor was astounding. My biggest beef with most gourmet food trucks is that it takes forever to place and receive orders. The crew was feeding a ton of people, and I think I waited less than 5 minutes to order, and about 10 minutes to get the food. Speed is a big plus for me. Not only does the hungry Nomad deliver the good on the food, they do it in a timely manner. Great job guys and gals! read more

Props to Mike M. and Tina for running such a classy establishment. After my last review, I received a nice message from Mike, suggesting that next time I try the steak sandwich and thanking me for the review. It wasn't until today that I ran into the truck again at UCLA, and I did indeed try the steak sandwich (but I also had to order the chicken pesto sandwich again so that I could show my boss how phenomenal it is). When I mentioned that I wrote a yelp review, they even comp'd the sandwich - how awesome is that? They've started putting some seating outside the truck; which, if you've ever experienced a food-truck wait, most notably at places like nomnom & grilled cheese where 45m+ waits are standard, you really appreciate the gesture. It's a really nice touch - I haven't seen other food trucks do this. And this place is definitely doing something right - they had a 10-person line while the other truck (Spring St BBQ) was looking a little lonely. The food continues to be excellent. As before, the chicken pesto is a wonderful combination of warm and cool flavors - the pesto/avocado is what really makes the sandwich, though the chicken itself is impressively tender. The steak sandwich is yummy too - thin strips of shredded beef, somewhat resembling a gyro, with savory tahini-like sauce (eat quickly, before it sinks to the bottom!) and, best of all, well-distributed peppercinis that add a kick of spice throughout. This truck has my undying loyalty, and hopefully my campus days will continue to coincide with theirs. I definitely recommend you try a sandwich (next time, I'll try the non-pesto chicken sandwich) or the fatoush salad (healthy, refreshing, crunchy, and filling - perfect lunch) if you run across these guys. Thanks, Hungry Nomad crew! read more

It was ok. Just that. They could make it a lot better. Things I noted... Tried the chicken pesto sandwich with fries. For $13, which is already steep for me for a lunch, it should be awesome. The pesto sandwich had a ton of sauce on it (pesto and mayo of some sort). A bit too much. Could have just been a little less. I was expecting some chicken breast, but I guess this was chicken ground up with spices Armenian style, which is fine. The sun-dried tomatoes were a little too over dried. I couldn't chew them and had to spit them out, they were that hard! Fries should be simple. But the ones I got were completely soggy. Not good. Overall average. read more

My first experience at the Hungry Nomad Truck yielded a 1 star review. I was just simply not impressed and felt like I had wasted my money on food that I didn't enjoy. Afterwards the owner, Mike M, read my review and contacted me immediately and apologized for my experience. In return he refunded my money and gave me an additional $10 for lunch on him. This is the first time that I have witnessed such an amazing gesture from a business owner. This is how you know when they really care about their customers. I will not hesitate to give Hungry Nomad Truck a second try and perhaps thank Mike personally for reaching out to me in expressing my concerns. read more

Slow service and tasteless beef, err, well, everything in the beef roll was pretty tasteless. Za'atar chips again weren't so great, but they're something I am not qualified to judge. For so-so food is one thing, but to have slow service too? Meh. 1.5 stars. I'll be generous and give 2. Oh yeah. Checked my trash can (lunch was a few hours ago)... and the food is so bad the ants won't even eat it. read more

I really appreciate that their management team take our reviews and comments to heart and strive to work better from it. The manager explained to me issues they had regarding to my previous experience. I definitely see where they are coming from. We cannot blame them for the slow service sometimes because they are also trying as hard to keep up with their speed of serving their orders and also ensuring that the food is freshly made and of good quality for their customers. They work their best to improve their business and service by accommodating with their customers! read more

After reading the Hungry Nomad's stellar reviews on Yelp...I was very excited to try out some new ethnic food. Meh. I was very disappointed. I ordered the Fattoush Salad because it sounded so flavorful and it seemed like a winner according to the reviews. The salad was overly dressed with an extremely lemon-y vinaigrette. It basically tasted like they squeezed a bag of lemons on top of my salad because every time I took a bite I puckered my lips. The za'atar chips that came with it looked good at first sight but ended up being bland and tasteless. I even tried the cheese triangle that my friend bought and it was bland as well. Really underwhelming. However, the staff was very friendly. read more

I am not impressed with Hungry Nomad's visit to the Jackalope Arts Fair yesterday. A paper menu was handed out that didn't actually reflect what they had available that day. I was ordering for a group, and after a half hour in line I was told that 3 of the 4 items I wanted to order they didn't have (ran out or weren't actually selling that day). I was told their website menu had been updated accordingly, so I ordered what I could and went back to my group to get their second choices. They looked up the new menu, and items that I'd just been told were sold out were still on the site. I then waited another half hour to get my first order. My group was satisfied with their food, but the potato salad was undercooked, and I threw away half the chicken sandwich. Not worth the wait or the headache. read more

Sorry, I was expecting a lot better. The Hungry Nomad truck was on the UCLA campus today and being in the mood for some warm ethnic food, I decided to give this a try. I only ordered an extra large beef pocket for a snack (for $4.34). When I got it, the presentation was nice, although the size was not extra large at all, and the pita pocket tasted so dry. The ground beef was aiight too, nothing special. It felt like that pita pocket was almost stale or dried up and they just heated it up and stuffed some ok-tasting beef inside. This definitely did not give me a good impression of the food truck, unfortunately. But it might be that I need to try some of their other stuff too. I prob won't come back here again, but if I do, I'd def try something else. read more
