    The Nu Reuben with seasoned chips!
    Saphace A.

    Lovin' it! This food truck does an Indian take on American food: hot dogs, grilled cheese, Reubens. They were stationed at Eastern Market and I couldn't help but wonder what they were selling. The truck is brightly colored and obviously their name is a pun. Nu Deli....New Delhi. Ha! There was a line when I got here but only 3 people in front of me. There seemed to be a cluster of people over here the whole time though. Must be popular! I ordered the Nu Reuben. It's corned beef with mayo, Indian slaw, Swiss, and tandoori seasoning on the bread. Wow! It was yummy and had a nice sweetness. Very unique! It was $12, but I've always paid that amount for a Reuben, so I'm used to it. The Reuben was the most expensive item on the menu, so if you want something less than $10, you've got some good options. They serve Mango Lassi, which I should've tried. Perhaps next time. A selling point is that you can make the dishes gluten free or vegan. Awesome! My sandwich came with some chips that had some type of seasoning on it. Wow. So good! It was filling and I couldn't really finish it. Service was great! They were super nice at the counter and call out your name when the dish is already hot off the grill. I'll have to come again!

    Nu Grilled Cheese!

    Some co-workers and I decided to hit up Campus Martius for lunch one beautiful summer day, you know when they have a ton of food trucks everywhere for you to choose from. I went with the Nu Deli food truck, that serves deli sandwiches with an Indian inspired twist. I'm a big fan of spices but I'm still not that familiar with Indian cuisine so this was a fun/new experience for me. I ended up getting the, "Nu Grilled Cheese," that has four different cheeses, mango chutney and stone-ground mustard on Italian Bread... and you guys... this sandwich was so bomb!!!! I kept loving each bite more and more until it was sadly all gone. Even the chips were bomb! They were just a wavy regular chip but they added a spice to them that just took them to a whole 'nother level. There was also a pickle, respectively. They aren't great with keeping track of who ordered what and who came before who, and I ended up waiting almost 30 mins for my order, but it was worth it!

    The Nu Deli is a brightly decorated orange food truck that serves "classic deli sandwiches with an Indian twist". I came across Nu Deli during Berkley's art fair. Like all smart food trucks, the menu is fairly short. Better to concentrate and do a few things well. All of the sandwiches are classics that are familiar but have been fused with Indian spices and preparation. The bread is toasted with masala spices, hotdogs are topped with tomato chutney, sandwiches have chili mayo, or chutney, or Indian slaw. Sandwiches include: Reuben, kosher hot dog, egg salad, tuna, grilled cheese, veg tikka and cream cheese and lox bagel. They offer "mom's cheese (cup) cake" of the day for dessert. Drinks included lassi style smoothie of seasonal fruit mixed and blended with yogurt. After much deliberation, I ordered the egg salad and lassi smoothie. The sandwich comes with a pickle spear and kettle chips (with a dash of spices). The egg salad has curry leaf and green chili on toasted masala challah bread. Egg salad will never be the same. This was a seriously good, flavorful sandwich. It had a nice kick but was a mild spice. If you have any fear of spice, just check with them about the spice level. The smoothie was also delicious. It was mixed berries combined smoothly with cool yogurt. You do have the option to have the sandwich without the Indian twist. They say that they will not judge you, but you will be missing out. This is a food truck to search out!

    Kinda pricy.

    Happened to see this when passing by the cadillac square. Sandwich tasted good. Serving portion is very little. Kinda pricy for the items offered. Guess there will be "new stuff to try" factor for some days. Give it a try for the variety.

    I enjoyed my cornbeef sandwich baked in a tandoor oven. I'll definitely go back for another one. The chips on the side has a nice kick to them as well. Simply delicious!

    I got the Nu Reuben one weekend at Eastern Market and it was absolutely delicious. I really enjoyed the Indian twist on these classic deli sandwiches. The corned beef was tender and flavorful, the bread perfectly toasted, and the Indian slaw and chutney added a wonderful balance of taste. I also got the mango lassi for a drink and that was sweet, creamy perfection. I'm excited to visit the truck again and try other dishes!

    Amazing smoothoe and highly recommend  the egg samwich

    Great food, would go back to this truck, only downside , poor excution in seating by eastern market if they want to do a venue with food trucks corral there should be adaquite seating.

    Pro tip- Get the Reuben on the Panini Ciabatta. So dang good.

    The Tuna fish sandwich made me sick. Really sick. I know. Eating a tuna fish sandwich from a food truck. I get it. It was a dumb idea.

I always say that my teachers are heroes without capes so the theme of this truck was so fitting. Every year, I try to do something extra special for my staff. This year, I booked the Hero Or Villain Food Truck. I was able to select 6 different sandwiches for my staff to choose from and options such as loaded fries & soft drinks. These sandwiches were the BOMB! Freshly made and grilled with such unique options: Blackfire (Steak, bacon, egg, mozz, grilled peppers, onion & drizzled with a spicy sriracha mayo), Thor (Turkey, bacon & Cheddar, mayo), Kingpen (Grilled Chicken, mozzarella & pesto aioli), Captain Planet (Marinated Mushrooms, Grilled Onions, Mozz, Red Pepper & pesto aioli), Deathstroke (Steak, grilled peppers, provolone, onion & mayo), Hawkeye (Turkey, swiss, sauerkraut, pickles, 1000 island dressing). These sandwiches were served on grilled sourdough, marble rye or a hoagie bun. My favorite was Thor but the Hawkeye was equally as delicious. I didn't have a chance to try all of them but everyone was raving about their sandwiches. The two ladies working the food truck were amazing. Serving up 50+ sandwiches in 1 1/2 hours was seamless. I've been told that this food truck travels all over the place. If you are lucky enough to try them, trust me, you will be in sandwich heaven! If you are booking an event, I highly recommend Hero or Villain Food Truck. Until next time, #catwoman

I will say, it is pricy and can take a long time to make since it's made fresh to order, especially if there's any kind of line. The Kingpin sandwich was delicious and my go-to: chicken, mozzarella, spinach, tomatoes, and pesto aioli on grilled sourdough. It's a great combo of ingredients. I also have tried their waffle fries are solid. I would love to try other varieties at their home base in Ferndale (which has more variety). But I highly recommend checking this place out. Great quality and great tasting sandwiches!

The sandwich originated in Chicago, so I like that Matt & Mo's has a replica of Wrigley Field's ivy wall. On the flip side, I didn't like being charged a 4% fee for paying with a card. My wife ordered a pepperoni pizza puff along with French fries. The pizza puff fell apart too easily, and was basically a larger version of a Totino's pizza roll. The fries were standard. With my sandwich, I ordered poutine. The consistency and flavor of the gravy made the poutine much better than average. As for the Italian beef, it did not disappoint. I regret getting just sweet peppers, as I should have gotten either hot or mild peppers with the sweet. I did get the whole sandwich dipped in au jus, which was the right move. This was my first time having an Italian beef, so it's hard to judge, but I definitely enjoyed it. Next time, I will bring cash to pay, and might even try some of the other menu items. I look forward to trying Doug's Delight, as well.

    Service was amazing. I've never had an italian beef before but I was talked through the toppings,…read morespices, and sauces. Very patient and great vibes at the order and pickup window. I ordered the combo which is possibly the best sandwich I've ever had. Moist/well-seasoned beef, garlic bread with just right amount of garlic, italian sausage, and I added provolone as well. Everything meshed together perfectly.

Between the colorful décor, the upbeat music, and the buzzing crowd, it just feels like somewhere you're meant to have a good time. I ordered the street tacos, and they absolutely delivered.

She was really attentive to everyone the entire night, and she even split the bill for us at the end of the meal without us having to ask. Imperial is a great date night spot. It has intimate lighting and is quiet enough for conversing. It's nice without being so nice that a dress code is required. The food was great! I really enjoyed my tacos which were all well-curated. I thought all of the toppings and salsas matched the proteins of the tacos I chose perfectly. They were also not too dry or saucy, so it was easy to pick up and enjoyable to eat. Of the 3 I tried, I liked either the Al Pastor or Adobada De Pollo the most. The Camaron was a bit too smokey for me, but I could see other people really liking that. I also got the Sinners Savior cocktail which was lacking in tomato flavor and spice, but it was still a decent drink. Overall, I would come back if I'm in the mood for more elevated Mexican food or looking for a place in Ferndale to dine in with others.

It has perfect density, is well-seasoned, and is easily 15% better than a Five Guys patty. The Toppings: The lack of customization is frustrating. No extra options or toppings are allowed. It comes with American cheese, shredded iceberg lettuce (not a fan), and way too much sauce. The sauce itself is okay, but the burger was drowning in it. The Fries: Good firmness, they definitely hold their shape better than Five Guys but Five Guys' Cajun fries still win on flavor. The Value: I paid about $20 for a burger, fries, and a tip.

They don't have any toppings for the burger besides cheese, lettuce and their ghost sauce (basically mayo, pickles and maybe tomatoes). They do have packets of ketchup and mustard if you ask. Fries were fresh and you can tell. This was my favorite thing. They were actually very good. I didn't care for the fancy sauce too much though. But the size of the fries are shareable I feel. Overall I would come here again and try other food. But, with the lack of toppings for the price, it would steer me away.
