    Food Truck
    Lauren B.

    In cheap bite we trust and I gladly announce that I've discovered one of the best food trucks in LA! I ordered a chicken shawarma express for $4.99 (credit card surcharge 3.5%) and EXCUSE ME, WHERE ELSE DO YOU FIND THAT PRICE IN LA??? I've never tried shawarma before so I didn't know what to expect but OMG...The garlicky flavor filled my mouth on the first bite. Tender, juicy chicken followed, soaked in creamy tahini sauce. Layering in between are cabbage, fries and pickles, offered a complete, intricate profile of savory, sour and crisp. Not to mention the perfectly warm and softly crunchy pita bread. The food truck only has one employee (and I assume that is the owner) but he works really hard to make sure all orders go out quickly. Even the packaging was spectacular, a plaid parchment paper inside of a aluminum foil, then a nylon bag. This shows attention to details. It was a 20 minutes wait for me, but I'd wait again and again. This food truck is next to the USC Village so if you drive, park at the Village for 2 hours free. Limited tables at the site but again, there are plenty of tables at the Village. All I'm trying to say is that I'm sincerely impressed, and that I'm here before the (probable) chaos when this truck is more popular! SUPPORT LOCAL BIZ!!!

Having grown up in the Midwest, I used to eat them often, but I have not had a cheesesteak since moving to LA. I decided to give this place a try. There was a small change of plans, with my wife wanting to also try other nearby food trucks. Instead of ordering a philly cheesesteak, I ended up ordering the Big Boy fries, which are fries topped with chili, beef, and pastrami. I realized they had philly cheesesteak fries after I ordered those, and in hindsight I wish I had gotten the philly cheesesteak fries. The Big Boy fries were still amazing though. Essentially, they are a lot like The Hat's pastrami chili cheese fries - chili, pastrami, and then the additional beef you would see in a philly cheese steak. Still pretty good, but did not satisfy my craving for philly cheese steak. I will have to come again to try their sandwich in the future.

    The spot for a delicious Philly cheese steak sandwich. I recommend the big boy special because it…read morehas 3 different meats on it which give it a unique flavor. The animal fries were also really good and the onion gave them a tasty flavor. Pros -Delicious food -Friendly service -Quick service -A lot of variety for sandwiches and fries Cons -No tables to eat at

There is a little seating outside, but for the most part you take your food back to your car or a park or home. The service is really great. I don't read Spanish well and some of the words confuse me. They are so nice and they always help us. The area is kept really clean and it is just a fun atmosphere. The food is great. They have all types of Mexican food, from tacos to burritos. They also have burgers that are super and I love their fish tacos. This is just a fun spot to stop.

We tried to contact the truck and they said they couldn't give us a refund unless we took the food back! They said it was not possible because "the truck had no ants" yet they crawled out of the food! We ended up going back to the truck and the female worker who takes the order ms said they had no ants and refused to open the tray to take a look. She said we must've set the tray down and ants went in there. Yet we had gotten the food and held it all the way to Dodger stadium and held the food all the way until our seats where we held them to open them up to eat! We didn't set the trays down anywhere like she claimed we did. This is gross!
