    From my Iceland trip
    Tawny L.

    Im so glad they have ICELANDIC HOT DOGS!! I've been craving one ever since I visited a couple years ago. The taste of these hot dogs is so unique and "clean" and exactly like the ones I've had in Iceland !! Perhaps even better bc of the toppings,, I am so glad. I think the value for this is great! I will visit again. Highly recommended :)

    This is my first time to try its lobster sandwich and is delicious. They put a generous amount of lobster meat on the bread. It also added truffle oil to make it taste so good. The lady that serve me provide excellent service.

    It's nice to have lobster rolls in the area. Located on Valley Blvd. You can't miss this truck when driving by. But it sucks you have to take it home or eat it in your car since there's really nowhere to eat it. The lady in the truck is really nice. The lobster roll was good, buttery and soft. Can't go wrong w a good lobster roll but for the price, I think I'd rather go to a sit down restaurant.

    Delicious lobster rolls! The lobster was fresh, perfectly cooked judging from the texture. Would definitely get it again. The douhua tofu pudding desert was also refreshingly good as a dessert. The fish from the fish and chips' batter was a little undercooked on the inside as it was moist/mushy where it touched the fish. But that's alright because the lobster roll and douhua make up for it tenfold! The only woman working had such great service and energy. I had never had the tofu pudding before, so she gave it to me for free on the house which was so nice of her! Check them out!

    Fries / 薯条
    Yongxian W.

    I had bought the fries thinking it'd be a small plate and like the picture on the truck but I was so pleasantly surprised at the portion size. It's absolutely huge and well seasoned. The food truck seemed to be managed by just one person but I think the food is definitely worth the wait and she was really nice and gave out chocolate freebies along with my order!

    Mouth watering and hit the spot on Saturday night in San Gabriel, Definitely coming back for this Lobster Roll from Lobster Zen Food Truck, $26 bucks with Shrimp Chips if you check in and the Lady was a sweetheart

    The lobster roll is very delicious, and the lobster meat is huge chunk. The lobster soup is also quite tasty. They also have fried squid and clam chowder here. Parking is also convenient

    I was driving around looking for food at 9:30 PM and what looked like a Chinese-street-food food…read morecart caught my eye. I pulled into the Good Fortune Supermarket (formerly Hong Kong Supermarket) parking lot to check it out. Everything looked new and clean, but business seemed slow because no one was around. Two Asian men sitting around liao tianr-ing (chatting) sprang up as I approached. My Chinese not being the best combined with their somewhat heavy mainland accents meant I didn't know how or what to order. They said they had one last serving of what sounded like "lamb" to me left. I took a glance and saw grilled/fried stuff on the menu, so I said sure why not. I asked how long they've been open, what their hours are, and if they're usually at this location. They said this is the first week they've been open, their hours are around 5 PM to 9 PM, and yes they are usually in front of the supermarket. I asked if I could take pictures and if they had a Yelp page, and they said sure and not yet. Around this time, while I was chatting with one guy and the other guy was preparing my order, a few other groups of people saw the commotion and started inching closer, curious. You know me, always blazing trails. Anyway, it wasn't until I paid and got change that I realized what I ordered. Apparently I ordered the Brothers Features Liangpi. I've never heard of a liangpi, so I was excited to bring it home to try it out. It turns out liangpi is like a flat rice noodle (or mungbean sheet?) cut up with cold cucumbers, tofu, cilantro, and a bit of Sichuan pepper (mala). They gave me a sesame sauce on the side. It was pretty good. In summary: Food was good though I ordered only one thing. I'll be back sometime in the next few days to try out more of their menu. Service was good. I was the only one around for a bit, but they were definitely friendly. Food truck with an "A" rating from the health department. It's a positive, but part of me wants to count it as a negative. Asian street food, to me, just isn't the same without massive cockroaches skittering around piles of rotting vegetables all around me while mosquitoes eat me alive. Pricing seems fair. Definitely not cheap as my liangpi wasn't huge or anything, but it wasn't too expensive either. I hope Asian-street-food food trucks become more popular.

Turns out ALL the sandwiches are squid ink. This truck specializes in squid ink bread. Facepam. Poor execution. Anyway, got the Go Ham and Cheese as recommended (since the tuna wasabi ran out). It was cooked fairly well. The flavor wasn't as unique as you would think for a location called: The Noir. Barely noticed the crab inside. The boif went as far as saying he could duplicate it at home. but I disgress. The cook on the egg was quite nommy. All in all, not bad. A OK. I'm gonna come back and try the other things these other random 5 star yelpers highly recommend. You'll hear back from me soon.

I believe they're always parked in front of the supermarket. I got the haha shrimp stuffed in squid ink bread and Cajun fries. It was delicious and the bread was soft and chewy. Very unique taste.

This time, we ordered the Shrimp with Cashew Nuts and the Beef with Chinese Broccoli. The Shrimp with Cashew Nuts was absolutely delicious, but unfortunately, the Beef with Chinese Broccoli was extremely salty. After just one bite, I honestly couldn't eat any more of it. I have always liked this restaurant and have been coming here frequently over the years. I've enjoyed their lobster several times with my family, and almost every dish I've tried here has been delicious. That's why I was especially disappointed with the Beef with Chinese Broccoli this time, as it was far too salty. Despite that, I still think this is a great place for lunch. Their lunch specials are reasonably priced, the service is always good, and the portions of rice are very generous. One thing I especially appreciate is the complimentary orange slices they serve to every customer after the meal. The oranges are always fresh and sweet, making a nice ending to lunch. One other thing I noticed during this visit was that the restroom now has a new premium hand soap. I don't remember seeing it before, and it was a nice little upgrade that added a touch of luxury hand soap to the overall experience. Overall, I still enjoy coming here and will definitely be back. Hopefully, the kitchen can be a little more careful with the seasoning next time .
