I caught them at the Nat Bailey farmer's market and used the Groupon coupon I'd been hanging onto for a while that was nearing expiry. This food truck is highly recommended! The Chicken Karaage is to die for and although I hesitated on the Korean-style Breakfast Burrito (it is such a ubiquitous item), it was easily one of the better breakfast burritos I've ever had. Next time, I'm trying the sliders and the duck salad! Lots of choices and the food is really good quality, made fresh and the prices, while not exactly cheap, are pretty fair for the quality. read more

I love this place. Great food, priced right and of course the basil lychee lemonade. Staff is always friendly, it's not too long of a wait, great location... what else is there to say! read more

Saw this on Food Network and had to try it. It was amazing! We tried almost everything and loved it all. The rice balls were killer, and te tacos were the bomb! Wish this truck would show up in So Cal! This is a must! read more

Yummy fusion food, friendly people and great farmer's market staple. I also approve their use of compostable serving containers. Don't forget the Lychee lemonade! read more

I am going to confirm that on my first visit to the Dragon must have been an off day. My second visit was much much better. I had the Togarashi tuna tataki slider. Say that one 10 times fast. The tuna was yum and the the brioche bun was the perfect place to store it. Overall a treat for your mouth. So good I had 2. Kinda want a 3rd now... read more

Based upon yelp reviews alone, I hired the Roaming Dragon to cater a 40 person private party. The food speaks for itself as you will read from other yelpers, but my shout out is for their outstanding service and ease of communication. They offered a diverse 12 course menu. I am from CA and never planned an event in Vancouver before, they worked with my budget, found a kickin' venue and served hot, yummy noshes in a timely fashion that pleased everyone who attended. Tuna tataki sandwiches, and pork belly in mantau wrappers were a hit. Loved the taco bar which included a variety of korean tacos, chicken tacos and breaded fish tacos. There were even vegetarian dishes for the non meat eaters. read more

Roaming Dragon's take on the banh mi (with fried chicken) was tasty. Decent sized portion was enough to share. Very nice to find them at the Trout Lake Farmer's Market. What was especially nice were the drinks. Lychee lemonade or manderine orange jasmine iced tea. Super refreshing. read more

Absolutely loved the tuna tataki slider that Roaming Dragon had at Yelp Night. I have visited them in the past (and shame on me, didn't review) but their Korean Short Rib tacos are a must try, as well. Rumor has it they are opening up a new truck, different concept. Can't wait! read more

Had a tofu Vietnamese sub while sitting on the asphalt in the middle of Georgia street tonight (watching the Canucks game on the big screen). What a refreshing change from tofu hot dogs (seriously, tofu dogs are just despicable, non?). I suspect my veg option wasn't quite as delish as my friends' pork subs, but nevertheless came dripping with marinated carrot and onion slaw, delicious spicy mayo, nicely marinated tofu, all on a fresh baguette for $6. Dragon FTW. read more

Their fried rice balls is one of my favorites! If you get a chance to try it, I really recommend it!

Really horrible experience at the Roaming Dragon food truck. It took them 20 minutes to prepare a single pork bao. We ordered before two other groups who ordered the same pork bao, and they served the two groups before us. They need to organize their order taking, because 20 minutes for a single bao is completely unacceptable. They were also unapologetic of the whole situation. When we finally received the bao the pork was dry (they also don't make their own bao buns I saw them taking the bun out of a plastic bag). The bao was just drowned in hoisin sauce, definitely not worth $6. The one star review is for the unprofessionalism, and just a horrible tasting bao. read more

I finally had the chance to check out the Roaming Dragon at this year's PNE festival. It was one of the healthier more gourmet options in the food isles. Bonus since they take Visa. I had the lemon grass chicken tacos which were just amazing. I needed to have a food moment for myself. My friend's sister had the lychee basil lemonade which was to die for. The prices were decent at $7 for two small tacos. read more

This food cart was amazing and made me rethink what a food cart can be. I ate at the cart last night as they were set up outside the Granville Brewery for a reception for the World Hostel Conference. Their carnivore meal was amazing. It had three delicious components, their rice balls, a beef sandwich that I can't do justice to because I can't remember most of the ingredients, and a chinese pork belly slider. Let me say, the slider was the best slider I've ever had. I wish I didn't live 2,700 miles away so I could eat this whenever I wanted. The owner was working the cart and he and his staff were all very nice. read more

We had to run some errands near the Global Centre and dropped by Roaming Dragon. I had the pork noodle box and it was scrumptious. A generous helping, it was packed full of all the Thai flavours you'd expect (chilli heat, lime acidity and the freshness of coriander) with just the right amount of sauce to coat the rice. The guys were really friendly and served up the food quickly. Definitely will try to go back to try the Indonesian beef rendang poutine - if any food defines Canadian multiculturalism then surely that dish does! Good work, lads! read more

I am so super excited about Roaming Dragon and can not wait until they hit the streets of Vancouver (sometime this summer so I have been told!) Everything I tasted was amazing, but my favourites are the pork belly sliders and the soba noodle salad...also, thought the portions were generous, our order came quick and was fresh! read more

The Roaming Dragon was a great experience. Parked next to Kits beach, there isn't a nicer location in the city to sit outside and have a fun dinner. With that said, the Roaming Dragon didn't blow me away. I am a huge fan of the food-truck initiative, I just hope subsequent food-trucks are more exciting. The truck it's self is very attractive - especially the examples of the food they serve. It's nice to see a what you are about to order before you buy. My mom and I ordered 3 items : The soba noodle salad, the short rib tacos, and the deep fried rice balls. The noodle salad was tasty, not incredible, but enjoyable. The short rib tacos were interesting. Quality short rib meat in a tortilla and nori seaweed. I liked the tacos, my mom not so much. The rice balls were my favorite. It was like risotto in a ball on a stick. Creamy and flavorful. The price with drinks was about $22. For a dinner for two that's cheap, if you count this place as fast food then it's a little pricey. After we paid the food came out quick and the service was lovely. We sat at one of the festive picnic benchs set up out side and enjoyed our surroundings. Overall I was happy. Maybe the best food I've eaten from a truck - just not as good as I'd hoped. read more

Great concept and tasty well executed street food at very reasonable prices. I went last Saturday during the Nat Bailey Farmers Market and food was freshly prepared. The Korean Short rib Tacos were to die for. read more

Their one truck is parked daily at my place of employment. I'd love to be able to say what time it's there, but since it's never there at the same time, I'm not able too. The fact that they never arrive at the same time, and often are not even open for BREAKFAST until after 9am makes it an easy choice to find another, more reliable place to get breakfast. If they do happen to be down there at a reasonable time, the service is fairly horrible. The new crew in the truck appears to have a proverbial chip on their collective shoulder's. They can be incredibly rude, condescending, and seem to feel that as customers we should bow down to them and put up with rude language, slow service and hit and miss food, because "we're on TV" It's too bad this new group of employees has ruined something that was a refreshing change, but after having a staff meeting the other day and all 162 employees in the company all realizing it's not just them that has had problems down there...we're actually looking into having a caterer come in to our office with a food cart daily, just so no one has to deal with those lovely people anymore. read more

Hmm Roaming Dragon...I really wanted to like you. I followed the opening of the food truck brigade in Vancouver with great interest, being always interested in new and interesting types of food/ways to eat them. I heard a lot about Roaming Dragon and since trying it, have seen it on a couple food network shows, so I'm guessing they're doing well. I'm going to give them the benefit of the doubt and guess they were just having an off day during my particular experience. I ordered the Korean Short Rib Tacos and wasn't impressed. The flavour wasn't really there, and they were COLD. Not even like...slightly warm, but definately totally cold - which put me off a bit because it makes me feel like its probably not the freshest...something that I definately need in street meat! I'm hoping it was just this one dish and would be totally willing to go back and try more. The guys running the truck were very nice, service was very quick...but ultimately the product just wasn't there in this dish. read more

Roaming Dragon has a stellar reputation, especially since its review on Food Network. I ate here during a convention visit and were blown away by the amazing taste. The obvious frustration with RD is finding where they are at the moment- subscribe to their twitter feed or take your chances. The value is excellent and the food is unlike anything you try elsewhere. read more

Roaming Dragon catered a party at our home and our guests just loved the entire experience. The truck parked outside and the friendly staff ran trays of pass-arounds and platters of small bites up to our place. Great food, presentation and service. Fun. Rebecca S. read more

Solid food truck! I tried their shredded pork sub last year when they were parked at the PNE and thought it was pretty good, although a bit pricey ($6) when you consider you could get the same thing in a sit-down Vietnamese restaurant for about $4. Everything tasted fresh and flavourful though and for the convenience I think it was totally worth the price. At the Yelp Elite Food Cart Fest Preview I was also able to sample their fried rice balls. Now, these were GREAT. Hot fried rice with chicken and sausage fried in a crispy shell and topped with aioli, MMMM. This is a dish I would actually seek out the truck for and order again! Looking forward to trying some of their other dishes in the future. read more

It may have been an off day for them, but the chicken karaage is quite bland, and so was the tofu sub, and seriously pricey for street food and the portion sizes. The chicken karaage is basically a few pieces of chicken, over a scoop of rice. I am incredibly surprised over some of the hype this place has, but then again I have to give them the benefit of the doubt, since they have been reviewed quite well, and also appeared on several shows. The marketing for this spot has been phenomenal, with the use of social media and all. I can see this place adding a lot more flavour to their food, and also being slightly more generous with their portions. read more

I was able to sample the rice/possibly risotto rice balls at the Yelp Elite event, however it wasn't my favourite thing, but of all the carts that were there, this one had THE best presentation, even for samples! read more

We ordered Korean short rib tacos and Asian duck confit salad with Lychee & Basil Lemonade. The food came out 5 minutes after we ordered. For the price, I appreciate the fine ingredients used in the food and the care it took to prepare the food. It was definitely fusion food, borrowing the best of different cultures to incorporate into one dish. The food was innovative, it took some risks and I appreciated it. read more

Had the chicken taco and the fried rice balls, as well as the lychee basil lemonade. Very interesting mixture of flavors. It's different and delicious. As good as street food gets! Better than some of the restaurants. read more

Among my favorite things on God's green Earth is pork. I don't care what style you cook it in, just give me a slab of pig and I will be a happy fat American. That goes for Chinese pork buns.... mmmmm.... pork buns. Sadly, the pork slider didn't live up to those tasty memories. It was mostly fat and the bun was bland and overall it was missing complexity. Granted, we went to the Food Cart Fest and they were slinging a heavy amount of food in a limited time frame, but other carts didn't suffer the same problems and some were just as busy. read more

Had the bulgogi gordita. The meat was juicy and tasted good but the overall "gordita"/sandwich left me wanting more.

Unfortunately this was the first food truck I've ever tried, and left me so disappointed that I did not try anymore trucks for the longest time. The pork belly sliders were tasty, but for someone who eats a lot of asian food, Roaming Dragon's offering was nothing special. It also left me starving. If you're looking for more than a snack, order at least 2 items from the menu. They even offer a special for 3 items, knowing that's how much it would take to feed a hungry appetite. read more

I saw Roaming Dragon on the Food Network and decided to give it a try. Very big mistake. Perhaps they were having a bad day, but I didn't appreciate forking out $$ for very mediocre food. The pork belly slider was served with a very good steam bun, but the pork was dry and tough. It didn't have the luscious fattiness that should accompany pork belly. The fried rice risotto ball was greasy and heavy. It tasted like any other risotto ball; there was no fried rice flavour. There is so much great food in Vancouver and Roaming Dragon needs to step up its game if it wants to compete. The novelty food truck factor aside, Roaming Dragon is a big disappointment. read more

Yep, I've joined the crowd of people flocking the Vancouver food truck scene. My first taste was with the Roaming Dragon. Admittedly, the food was good. I've only tried the short-rib taco, rice balls and the pork sub.The whole concept of fusion doesn't always work, but I was quite pleased with the Roaming Dragon. These guys know what they're doing. My only gripe is with the waiting time. It's hard when you're really hungry and you can hear your own tummy rumbling. read more

The new menu at the Roaming Dragon is great. I just tried the Indonesian Rendang Poutine and I fell in love! Huge portion for the price and loaded with great taste. I am excited to try the bulgogi gordita next! read more

taking our first walk in the city we came across this food truck. coming from l.a., the capital of food trucks we had to give it a try. we tried the korean pork tacos, which was good. we also had the fried rice balls, these were amazing. we washed it down with the lychee lemonade, that was great. overall we both think that this truck can hold its own down in l.a. read more

I was ecstatic to see a red truck parked right outside the Sauder building at UBC when I got to school this afternoon. I had just woken up and was super hungry, so throughout my snooze-inducing Market Research class all I could think about was the Roaming Dragon Food Truck! I've heard about their delicious food before but have never been in the right place at the right time...until now. After class I rushed over to the truck and ordered a Bulgoli short rib taco. I was surprised at the portion size (it was $3 for a mouthful) but when I bit into it, I knew why. It was heavenly. The short ribs (hidden underneath the carrots/bean sprouts/seaweed) were rich and flavorful. The condiments on top were tangy and had a really nice texture to it, which contrasted perfectly with the softness of the ribs. I loved how they put the bulgogi in a flour tortilla - it was super easy to eat without mess and it totally added authenticity to the "standing-while-eating-like-crazy-hungry-person-next-to-food-truck" phenomenon. I really regret not ordering more items! Until we meet again, Roaming Dragon.... read more

Enjoyed the pork slider and the fried rice balls for $10.50. Very fast, professional and friendly service. Really nice sauces on the fried rice balls and the pork belly on the slider was done perfectly. This is a definite 'must try' for any food truck fans. read more
