The Wait and quality of food.. Not worth it…read more Came here around 12pm to get some lunch because I was in the area craving Thai. Their menu looked appetizing and the reviews were decent so I gave it a try. Before I ordered I asked how long the wait would be and she said 15min. So I ran an errand and came back, 15 minutes have past and I'm still waiting. I waited until 25 minutes before I asked about my food. she said it was coming up next, and sorry for the wait. I understood I mean it's lunch time. You can tell they were rushed, there's only two of them and the people waiting in line to order slowly left. She didn't acknowledge people waiting in line, she had he back towards them. 40 minutes have passed now and I'm HANGRY... She kept telling me it was next and that it's backed up. I waited another 10 mins before my food came out... By this time I was over it. I took a bite of the pad see ew and it was so bland... The beef is dry and tasted like they Rushed it.... All that wait for something gross.. Very disappointed !! I mean cmon even when I'm hangry and the food doesn't taste good still.... Sad

You ever order something that you thought was going to taste a certain way, and when you get it,…read moreyou find yourself dabbing other items' sauces on it in an effort to make it either taste better, or taste closer to what you thought it was going to taste like? Well, that's what just happened to me. I wouldn't mind trying other things on their menu, next time. I'm hopeful. But I have to admit, I didn't love the bbq pork noodle I ordered. It came with a peanut/vinegary/liquidy sauce. The noodles tasted like nothing, and the bbq pork was good. But I guess you're supposed to pour the sauce over the whole dish, else the noodles would just be dry and flavorless. Kind of like you do on Vietnamese vermicelli dishes.I've never had Thai food that way, but I'm open-minded. The prices were a little on the high side for a food truck. I mean, why are food trucks generally expensive for fast food? It kind of contradicts the whole concept behind the "roach coach". Dontcha think? These prices were like sit-down restaurant prices for the pretty good Thai food places around town. So, not sure how the whole business model of having high prices works out for these food truckers. I also ordered the fried tofu with the sweet chili sauce. You can't go wrong on fried tofu, so nothing to write about besides it's good :). Service? They could definitely pick up some storefront personality and speed. But overall, they seemed nice.

Yesterday was my first visit to this food truck. Parking is a little tight, at least on a Sunday…read more Park a block or so away and get some steps in. The tacos are $5. They give a generous amount of meat. I found the shoulder meat a little dry. I think I'll try a mixture of meat next time. The red hot sauce is pretty hot. The green one is milder. The service was quick and pleasant.

Tried out Mastermind during a food truck event at Eat See Hear at LA state historic park near china…read moredown. There was a choice of about 7 food trucks. There was the Philly Steak truck with a very long line, The Chairman with a medium size line, and then the rest had basically no line. I knew that it would be a mistake, but we tried out Mastermind as the Vietnamese / Chinese food sounded good, and we have had good luck in the past with it from food trucks. I figured that it is usually hard to go wrong with a Drunken Noodle dish, so I decided to try that one. What I received was not drunken noodle. It was linguini, tossed with some spices (very dry) and more dry chicken that had tendons and was hard to chew. A piece of cilantro was tossed on top for decoration. I ordered a 3 on the spicy scale of 1-5, and tasted barely any spice. If I ever did get food from Mastermind again (which I won't), I would get a 4 or 5. Lastly, regarding the amount. This poor dish was $10. However the annoying part, that the other food trucks there did not force on me was a charge to use a credit card, that was not noted and the addition of tax, which other food trucks included in their pricing. Overall this dish was a failure, and I would be shocked how much loner Mastermind stays around. Considering I'm just the 3rd review, I think that it's days of business should be coming to an end.

Incredible vegan burritos, vegan tacos, flavorful salsa, and fresh chips. Absolutely coming back…read morewhen I'm in the area.

Portions are probably the most generous of any vegan restaurant I've been to. They don't skimp on the meat either. For reference, the burrito is a tad bit bigger than a Chipotle burrito and the torta completely fills the inside of a half-size takeout container. You get to choose from 6 meat options for the filling. I got al pastor. It was decent. It also comes with pineapple chunks, so if you're someone who's repulsed by pineapple on pizza, be warned that this has the same taste. Highly recommend, 10/10. The fact that this restaurant has been standing for almost a decade says a lot.

It is a busy restaurant since it's right across the general hospital and many orders come through, so it may take some time to get your order, but there are many things you can do while waiting, watch tv or just admiring all the memorabilia! But the best part is receiving your food to chow down. I got the chilaquiles with scrambled eggs and steak for breakfast. Very yummy and warm along with the very delicious cafe de olla.
