    Chicken over salad
    Donyiel C.

    Seen this food truck around and decided to try it last week. I ordered the chicken over salad extra spicy (with siracha on the side) and it was wasn't bad. Can't say I was completely satisfied, but I would definitely order from this truck again - might try a different item. The customer service was good and that's always a plus.

    Stopped by this food truck while at the Air and Space museum. Though tasty but far from the best Gyro Ive had they seemed to load it up so much with toppings that eating it like a sandwich is impossible without causing a huge mess. I downed it with a fork. Meat was a tad overcooked and dry.

    Combo gyro.

    Two and a half stars. First customer of the day (#2 window opened 15 minutes after their Twitter account predicted), so a short wait for my food to be prepared by the polite staff. The meat is super moist, and I liked the bits of gristle in my chicken, but I preferred the gyro-style lamb. I feel like the large chunks of protein make the gyro wrap format difficult to consume, so I'd probably opt for the platter next time. Coarsely chopped lettuce hadn't been fully pulled apart. Plus the thick pita had barely been warmed through, making it apparent that the bread was a little stale, and it split open trying to stretch for each bite. Pepperoncini on the side. Pretty good deal for free fries with two entrees.

    The quality of food is very good. I had their lamb gyro wrap and liked it better than New York's Halal Guys' beef shawarma wrap. The guy who was working there on the Sunday I visited DC was nice and friendly. I totally recommend it. P. S. Their meat is halal.

    Lamb and chicken salad combo
    Angela H.

    Ordered a combo with lamb and chicken kabob and loved the flavors and the seasoning of both! To be honest, the lamb meat isn't so much lamb but a mixture of different filler meats which I was not too impressed by. The flavor was good was the quality of "meat" not at all. I am mostly writing the review for how much I enjoyed the flavoring and tenderness of the chicken which was truly quite delightful. Because it was white meat, there were only 3 - 4 pieces but they were definitely worth it and triumphed over the mountain of "lamb" meat i got. Overall, not a bad lunch. Just wasn't too sure what "meat" I was truly intaking for the lamb..

    Super friendly and my food was great!

    L'Enfant Plaza - Quick Bite's gyro platter

Just outside the L'Enfant Plaza Metro stop (on the Maryland Ave side), you'll know you're in the right place by the crowds of Federal office workers queuing up for their favorite truck. There's a great variety from southern soul food to barbeque, from pho and banh-mi to Indonesion, from Philly cheese steaks to gyros. My daughters each had beef pho from the Pho-Nation and Vietnamese Food trucks (piping hot flavorful broth, plenty of noodles, slices of tender beef, cilantro, and accompanied with hot sauce and lime wedges on the side); my wife had the falafel salad from the Quick Bites truck which was outstandingly tasty and light, made with a chickpea and fava bean combination with a herb blend that gave them a unique green color on the inside; while I had the gyro platter from the same truck. Excellent lamb meat, well-seasoned, good tzatziki sauce, and accompanied by a fresh salad and stewed chickpeas. About $9 each for these meals and the trucks take credit cards. Don't settle for the tourist trap food trucks lined up near the Smithsonian museums -- these are terrible with microwaved pizza slices and hot dogs only ... make the short walk to these real food trucks and you won't be disappointed.

The only con which could be personal preference was my rice was underseasoned with salt. Luckily the sauce from the meat compliments the rice. The service is great - they are super super friendly and helpful with answering any questions or helping you decide what to order. The price is so reasonable like spending under $15 on a platter is unheard nowaday. I will definitely be back to try something else on the menu.

    Oooooh dat chicken that I had for lunch today was pretty good. I was out searching for another food…read moretruck, and then this place caught my attention. I was still a little hesitant until this nice woman came along and vouched for the food. I had no idea about what to order, but as soon as I saw her food come out I was sold. I told the guys to give me exactly what she had, which included a quarter chicken, corn, and potatoes. I got back up to my office and enjoyed all of it. The chicken was well done and well seasoned, the corn was tasty, and the potatoes were better than what I was expecting. Can't really explain it but they were like roasted and mashed at the same time.. whatever it was it was great! Oh and that sweet orange sauce that they gave me took the chicken to another level. Insert fire emojis Lastly, the guys working the truck were some of the coolest food truck people that I've ever interacted with. Combine that with good food and you can def count on my coming back again.

    Well...I meant to take a picture of my lunch. Really, I did. But...it was gone too fast…read more.. Today was my second time at Ooh Dat. Both times I've ordered the same thing - a quarter dark meat with one side. It comes with basmati rice (which you can sub out for a different side) and a choice of a salad, coleslaw, and corn. I've chosen the coleslaw both times - I find it so unique, with its cabbage and basil-like dressing. Definitely NOT your usual slaw. I will try the corn one of these days, though. On to the chicken - They give you a good amount of chicken and it is very, very juicy. I can't comment about the skin (I don't eat the skin, I take it off...I know to some of you that's a sin!) but my co-workers have previously commented that it is nicely seasoned. They also provide you with a mild barbeque sauce, and today they gave me a new sauce, which was curry-based. It's slightly thicker than the barbeque sauce, which while it has good flavor, is a bit thinner (it complements, not overpowers, the chicken). I alternated between both sauces today. I have to also complement the owner/manager - I had exactly $8 in cash (keep forgetting about the taxes for food trucks!) so he let me go without paying the $.80, that was really nice of him. I'll be sure to give it back to him next time! Overall, a solid, filling meal, and I would return!

    **** 4.5 stars ****…read more As one of the progenitors of "better" street food for the DC area, Andy Kim and his family have been providing a quality lunch time meal at a fantastic price for several years now at their famous L St cart (http://www.yelp.com/biz/bulgogi-cart-washington#hrid:P03Wi3K_BGfBmyV7WowE_g). I'm not sure whether the idea to open up this additional spot was to cash in on the food truck craze currently engulfing the District, or if he just wanted a second location and this was more convenient than lugging around another cart each day. Whatever the reason, I'm glad he's here. This new location, right in front of the Metro Center station, is marginally closer to me, and it's a pleasant shady walk the whole way around noon. The truck (http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/GD4QOboiYcXUKbFw5DvjbA?select=8kLF59cmaVQyGxu6x_Mzdw) is just as easy to spot as the cart ever was, so just look for the bright yellow spot in the midst of drab grey buildings. Andy said that he and his dad are now manning this truck, while his mom and sister take over operations back at the original cart. The prices are all the same as before, $7 for any combo of beef or chicken, spicy or not, however they do not offer the kimbap sushi here like they do at the cart, which doesn't really affect me. I'm not sure if they make all the sauce at once, and then distribute it among the two locations each day, but it definitely tasted slightly different than what I've gotten from my visits to the L St cart. The 3 times I've picked up my usual spicy combo (a mix of half spicy chicken and half spicy bulgogi) from here it has been the perfect balance of heat and flavor. Add in a double order of their sweet vinegar "salad" to cool off the heat and I'm totally set. That's really the main reason I'm bumping this up to a 4.5, because at $7 for a giant plate of food this is really tough to beat. If they could ever get their kimchi to not suck I would probably give them a 5 and put them right up there with Fojol Brothers.
