    This food truck show up at the Asian festival on the past week end. I always look be to have New England type lobster roll. This will serve the purpose of my craving. The roll cost $14. They did advertising 4oz roll which I did not paid attention. What the roll actually comes with is 4 oz of lobster meat and the remaining fillings is imitation crab meat. Which most expensive that I have don't have full roll with lobster meat. I would have reading the fine print which most of us not catching it. I would rather they charge us higher price with full lobster meat. The roll did pack with a lot of imitation crab meat. Overall look good. It does have good ratings in Yelp. They do carry some lobster bisque and blue crab meat roll. Food truck is decent but I would just give options for full lobster meat.

    Spicy lobster bisque

    Went to food truck night in metro west. Monsta lobsta was there. My boyfriend and I decided to get a soup to try. We ordered the spicy lobster bisque. It wasn't anything special. It was a tiny bit spicy. There was not really much of any lobster in it. It tasted like store bought lobster bisque. Wouldn't try again.

    This truck is full of delicious things!

    Mouthwatering chunks of lobster meat kissed lightly with a bit of mayo and lemon seasoning then served on a warmed and buttered roll. Wow. It's like I'm in the Maine...but surprisingly it's right here in Central Florida. Every time I see this food truck I have to stop and get a lobster roll. Tonight I made a u-turn when I drove by their food truck in Maitland. What a happy surprise to find them hanging out by Lake Lilly. Besides the lobster roll Monsta Lobsta also sells crab rolls and lobster bisque. There is a roll on the menu called "indecision" which is half crab and half lobster, haven't tried it yet but sounds wonderful. If you like lobster this is what you want, a roll busting at the seams with big, fresh pieces of lobster. It's so decadent!

    Well, it looked delicious and had large chunks of lobster on top but underneath was some sort of strange salad that had chunks of some other off tasting seafood - like maybe calamari or even the fake stuff. I am from the east coast and am used to having real lobster throughout. I had to brush my teeth afterwards from the imitation seafood taste. I would have rather had a smaller portion of real lobster then have it mixed with a product that I don't eat.

    Someone's photo mentioning imitation crab, the next picture I circled fine shreds , lobster meat does not shred like that.

    There is a reason they probably spelled the Lobsta with an A at the end on instead of ER because underneath the claw meat there are peices of meat that are perfectly circular, there is not a single part of the lobster that would produce a perfectly circular piece of meat. Now I speak about this because of my close connection to New England especially lobsters. Having been born and raised in Rhode Island and while in culinary school I worked in restaurant in East Greenwich Rhode Island called The Harborside Lobstermania we're on Friday and Saturday nights they had a special of twin boiled broiled or baked lobster is and we would do over 600 lobsters at night. So I have seen more than my fair share of lobsters as a matter of fact on my Instagram I have a video of how people can tell the difference between a male and a female. https://www.instagram.com/p/BiyKxDeDQ4e/?igshid=gakku8um4fwq Here is how to prepare lobster: https://www.instagram.com/p/BiyICsvDgDX/?igshid=1eek6yyucmqu2 Oh that perfectly round piece of meat is but looks like surimi white fish extruded under high pressure with potato starch or some other kind of filler binder hydrocolloid .The other part about using surimi is that the red coloring that's on the top of it is called carmine, this color pigmentation is produced from some scale insects such as the cochineal. So to charge $24 for a roll that has imitation crab on it is a little bit of a Monsta rip off!

    Lobster roll deserves a selfie!

    The best lobster roll for me by far!!! The only problem is i cant seem to get a hold of their food truck. Its hard to keep track of their locations. I wish they would open a small spot here in central orlando.

    I tried out Monsta Lobsta at the Food Truck Bazaar the Friday that just passed. It was good, and I could tell they tried to give a lot of lobster--lol, trying to stay true to the Monsta Lobsta name. $13 for one lobster roll seems kinda pricey for some people, but if you don't get lobster on the regular--and you're from a beach town like me and sometimes crave it--you'll do it. xD

    If you're a lover of lobster or crab then this is where you need to eat. Actually, that's the beginning and the end of their menu! That's all they need to serve because they have the best lobster roll on wheels in central Florida. Their roll has no fillers and no dressing at all. Just fresh lobster meat. For me though I enjoy a bit of mayo or something wet as I need something to hold it all together. No fear!! In comes their killer lobster bisque. Ask for your roll "smothered" and you'll have the best of both worlds. It's rich, delish and oh my goodness filling. You get a bang for your buck and if you can't get enough, they have not 1 but 2 trucks! It's not unusual to see them in a city one day and another city the next. Or both trucks at 2 different rally's in the same city. They're like Mighty Mouse...they're everywhere, they're everywhere!

    I'm giving this place 4 stars overall for the vibe and for all the options however it is definitely…read morepricey for what you get. If you haven't come before, parking was $5. There's free parking across the street but it's a bit of a walk and we thought it was worth paying to save us from more walking in the heat. We do like supporting local shops/owners so for that, I think it's worth it. I also liked that it was clean, they had lots of tables with umbrellas and seating. Also there were a lot of enclosed trash cans which I appreciated so it didn't smell bad and there was always one close by to throw trash away. Drinks: 4 stars $10-15 lemonade, peach lemonade, watermelon lemonade Multiple trucks were selling lemonade which was great for how hot it was. I'm glad the cups were big because they are kind of pricey. Chicho's Fusion Cuisine: 4 stars $20, #2 Fried Egg Smash Burger My friend said it was good and he'd get it again Brazilian Grill: 4 stars $24 Picanha plate I didn't plan on getting Brazilian food when we went. But when we were walking around this guy gave samples and the steak tasted great. Even after looking at a few more aisles I couldn't stop thinking about the steak so went back and ordered it. Advice for surrounding trucks to give out samples! There were quite a few similar trucks but this was the only one of this cuisine that was busy. I think it could have used a salsa or some sort of sauce on the side and I wish the salad had tomato but aside from that it was still delicious and I'd order it again. Dubai chocolate strawberries: 5 stars $13, this was the best thing we got, worth the price and super yummy. If you don't like pistachio the chocolate and strawberries would also still be fire Brappin Crabs: 1 stars... We reallllllyyyyy wanted to like this place. We literally went looking through all the food trucks for this specific food item. First off, 2 eggrolls and fries were $30! It would be one thing if they were big but they weren't and they had no business being called chicken alfredo because it tasted NOTHING like chicken alfredo. It tasted like curry with Indian or Mediterranean seasoning on it. It wasn't bad but it wasn't what you would expect. Thinking about whether or not we want to give their boil a try or if we just need to move on.

    Great place for groups and for adventurous foodies…read more They literally have food from around the world ! Great food for lunch/dinner and snacks/desserts! Great place for date night . Great place for large groups with various appetites and taste buds. If I lived closer, I'd come here every paycheck and try each food truck. I highly recommend this place for residence and visitors to the area.
