I ordered ahead of time via website and picked it up. I arrived right before they were closing up for the night. They offered and gave me extra egg rolls from the newly fried up batch they made for me. The food was really good and I would definitely return to try more items. I love their really sweet and nice energy they gave me in small talks. Customer service is excellent! I followed their Instagram page to be able to see when they return back to SJ flea market location.

a variety of food items on a table

Solid meat and rice. The egg rolls were nice and crispy. For the price, you get a good amount of food compared to other food trucks. They also get the food out quicker than other trucks as well.

Lemongrass beef
Ken L.

Can't say anything with regard to authenticity as I have limited exposure to Cambodian food, but I'm pretty sure the beef slices in lemongrass beef shouldn't be pink in the center (as you'd get with a medium steak.) The lemongrass sauce was decent and flavorful, but the meat had that weird half cooked texture. The portion was pretty much the standard portion as seen in the picture on the side of the truck, plus another full load of beef! Uhhh, the spring rolls... Pretty good deal, 6 giant spring rolls for $7.50, but they were lukewarm, greasy and had zero crunch. The filling was tasteless and required the much needed spraying of that sweet and sour sauce. They were more than generous in plating but should probably focus more on the quality of the food.

Got to try this place when they came to the flea market and I ordered the beef plate. I didn't get any of the carrot salad thing like in the pics and got just salad instead which was fine. It comes with a lemon grass sauce which I felt it tasted a little off but that's probably Just the lemon grass. The meat and rice and portions were a good amount. Pretty simple so if you are looking just for meat and some rice this is a place to go. They were also fast and friendly service !

Cha Katiew (noodles) & Beef Loc Lac
Sarah W.

I lived in Cambodia for 6 years and I've never had Loc Lac that tasted traditional until I tried Lemongrass Lane. They season the beef perfectly!! You can add a spring roll for $1. They're yummy and crispy. Highly recommend to anyone missing Cambodian food. Their website is super easy to use & they are very friendly!

Lemongrass beef sandwich
Eddie H.

Picked up this bomb sandwich now that I work out this way... The meat is super juicy and tender and the bread is very soft. The size is decent but I'm a big man I could had a little more but still a great sandwich. I also had the egg rolls, which were very good as well. Definitely a spot I will be back at

Watery sweet barely there curry.

Step up your game. I wouldn't order from here again. Long line to get disappointed. Maybe make things before hand. Just saying today was a bust.

Right in front of our driveway!

Lemongrass Lane catered my kids birthday party! It was our first time using a food truck and it was the best! They worked with me to create a kids menu- chicken tenders and fries and all the adult food. Communication was easy and smooth, setup and service was great! The food was delicious and everyone at the party agreed! These ladies were so great. I highly recommend you hire them for your event.

We came on a Sunday and there was only one other party dining there, which honestly made us feel a little bad because you can tell they're probably struggling to get much foot traffic. The lady working there was very friendly and service was good whenever she was able to get to us. You could definitely feel that it's a small local spot doing its best. Food-wise, everything we ordered was solid. We got both the chicken and beef skewers -- both had great flavor with a nice grilled char that really came through. We also ordered the fish amok, cha eark, and kuy tiew cha and enjoyed all three dishes. The fish amok especially stood out since it came wrapped in a banana leaf, and you could taste that subtle aroma infused into the fish. Overall, I still prefer Chez Sovan personally, but this spot is closer to home and reasonably price. I would definitely come back to be able to support a local business!

We ordered: - beef skewer appetizer: holy shit this was good! Moist and tender beef with a smoky coconutty flavor, balanced by the bright and crunchy vegetable salad (no limp garnish here!) - Fermented mustard greens with pork: similar to Sichuan sauerkraut fish in terms of punchiness but balanced by the earthy pork and mild rice - Amok (sp?): catfish cooked into a sort of frittata-esque texture in a banana leaf. This was so hard to describe but so yummy and interesting - Fried rice with sausage: umami but still with a healthy dose of vegetables - Mango sticky rice: a little bland - could have been more coconuty, though it's always hard to make this with out of season mangos - The other sticky rice dessert: so fun to unwrap the banana leaf it was steamed in, and much more coconuty after the side of milk was poured over Overall every flavor was so complex and interesting - I would love to come back and try more dishes!

The Amok is my favorite dish on the menu. It's made of catfish marinated in coconut, lemongrass and guajillo peppers that is slow baked in a banana leaf and topped with coconut cream sauce. The way it is cooked gives this dish a soft soufflé- like texture. For those of you who don't like fish, this is the dish to try. You wouldn't know it is fish at all! The papaya salad is also delicious and refreshing! Not pictured are the loat cha pearl noodles with shrimp simple and delicious, perfectly balanced with a squirt of lemon! Can't say enough good things about this place! Amazing friendly service that only comes from a a family pended business and clean, modern ambiance makes this perfect for anything from causal lunch to work dinners and upscale dining. It was also recently featured on Guy Fieri's Dinners, Drive-ins and Dives! So you know it is good!

I feel like the menu has gotten much bigger including Laos/Cambodian dishes. There were a few parties having lunch already when we arrived. We were told to head to the table inside. No specific tables were mentioned so we sat anywhere that was inside. Menus were brought out right away and the staff stood nearby waiting for us to take our order and was was brought out immediately after we ordered. We ordered the following: 1. La Mein Xao Thap Cam (combination stiry fried noodles): Reminds me of Thai's drunken noodles without the sweetness. Very savory and seasoning was just right. Flavorful but not salty. The noodles were thicker than the usual chow fun. It was cooked perfectly and is chewey just the way I like it. There was not alot of noodles but with the amount of vegetables with shrimp and chicken that it worked out well as the dish filled me up. 2. Hu Tieu Dai, Kho (Combination noodles w/ transparent tapioca based noodles, dry (or you can request with soup): The bowl is big enough for hubby to mix his noodles. He says the noodles were cooked well, nice, firm, and chewey. The sauce is flavorful and not too salty. Hubby says the protein could be more. There were a few slices of pork, 2 shrimp, 1 small piece of squid, 1 thin slice of pork heart & 1 small piece of liver. This dish is accompanied with a vegetable plate and a bowl of soup on the side. The vegtable plate had a small portion of blanched bean sprouts and a couple pieces of cut up Chinese celery. For my husband who loves veggies in his food, that was not enough. He asked for more bean sprouts. Overall, we both enjoyed our meal. Service was not great nor bad. When we need extra bean sprouts my husband was able to locate a staff and got their attention. His request was met promptly. Aside from that, no staff came by to check in nor refill our water. We will definitely returned with our boys in the future to try other dishes. I definitely am interested in the Laos/Cambodian dishes that are on the menu.

Giving this place 2 stars strictly for the food. This used to be my go-to spot for Hu Tieu, so…read morecoming back was a bit nostalgic after a friend mentioned it. I wasn't feeling well, so I decided to order 2 Hu Tieu to-go (no bones, which I know costs extra) and called it in ahead of time. Over the phone, I was told the total was $39, which already felt high at about $20 per bowl but I figured maybe there was a misunderstanding. When I got there, I was told the same total again, so I asked for clarification. The menu lists $15 for small and $16 for large, and I'm familiar with places automatically charging the large size for to-go orders, which is fine. But the math still isn't mathing! Even estimating generously: $17 per bowl comes out to $34, plus about 10% tax ($3) brings it to $37. There's also a clearly posted $0.35 to-go container fee, but that still doesn't justify the $39 total. It may only be a small difference, but the lack of transparency didn't sit right with me. Unfortunately, experiences like this make it hard for me to want to return, even for a place I used to enjoy. I won't be coming back.

Ther eis a parking lot behind the restaurant that can be missed if you drive by too quickly. Service was friendly. Most of my family got the small size, but the portion was HUGE! I was so stuffed.

There was a lot of meat that comes with the noodles. There was just enough sauce, but there are condiments on the table so that you can add extra flavor. The noodles come with a side of vegetables including lemon garnish, sliced jalapenos, blanched bean sprouts. I would say the food here is pretty authentic, and great value!

I returned about 10 minutes later with the bags, and instead of simply verifying the mistake, the employee counted every item in the order as if there was doubt about the missing dessert. Once the mistake was confirmed, I still had to wait another 10 minutes while multiple employees checked on me. To make matters worse, the food itself was fairly mediocre and didn't stand out compared to other Thai restaurants in the area. Between the service issues and average food, this wasn't a place we would return to.
