    After watching just the first Act of FAME, I couldn't sit though another Act and neither could my theater going friends. We were hungry so off to the taco truck in the SAAR's parking lot we figured there's no way it could be nearly as bad as FAME was so we had nothing to lose. Two al pastor and two pollo tacos for me, not bad for $5.00. The pollo was ok, not dry like they can tend to be at other taco buses but the al pastor were tasty and they had some grilled pineapple served in them which added a fresh yet sweet bite to the taco. Add a little of their red salsa and these tacos were pretty delicious, the green salsa was good but too mild for me I enjoyed the hotter red salsa. This really is a bus, with bus seats used at their booths for seats, it was cute and much cleaner than some of the other buses around. If you're ever in the the SAAR's parking lot and craving some tacos stop by the bus and get some for just a $1.25 each.

    This is the best taco bus in Seattle! So cute and very clean! The vegan burrito was amazing and tasted fresh. My husband enjoyed the steak sandwich. This will be my new regular place to eat for sure.

    Yummy tacos. Their quesadillas are the best!! They have tables & seating inside the truck which is cool. Cash only though. Their red sauce is extremely spicy. Beware. The burritos are a nice size compared to most around the area. The lady and cook are really friendly. This truck is a yes!

    A very friendly place....definitely Torta De Alambre is the bomb. Their hot sauce have a kick to it too. Would for sure return for more Torta. Wish they would have choices. But this would do or else I'll be ordering more food than I can handle.

I also love using the kiosk, who doesn't enjoy ordering from pictures and minimizing human interaction? That said, I still prefer takeout or the drive-thru over eating inside. Unfortunately, there were a few uncomfortable moments with people asking for food or making remarks toward women, and that happened inside the restaurant, not outside. And a solid awkward moment where he stand there and watches me eat. Demon Huntrix Meal This meal comes with two sauces. The Hunter Sauce is a sweet chili sauce that's more tangy than spicy. The Demon Sauce is a mustard based sauce with purple coloring. Both sauces were kind of mid to me, nothing terrible, but a little bland with just a slight mustard kick. The Ramyeon McShaker Fries were actually my favorite part. They really do taste like instant ramen seasoning, with a light garlic and cheesy flavor. I enjoyed these a lot. The 10-piece Chicken McNuggets were crispy as usual, always a reliable classic. Big Arch The Big Arch is basically like a bigger Big Mac, but the sauce tastes more tangy and creamy. It's definitely worth trying at least once before it disappears from the menu. Overall, some fun limited-time items to check out, especially if you're curious about the flavors. The fries were the standout for me!

Saw they had the Ube pie and need that! Pineapple quencher is always raved about so got that too. Service is friendly and welcoming but only thing uncomfortable about dining in was the woman giving me my order asked me 2-3 times if it was only me eating and if I needed double the silverware.... So you might receive some judgment as a solo diner if you have a large appetite or order a lot... The lobby was clean with tables and bar seating only. The pineapple quencher I see is always raved about online and it indeed was satisfyingly tasty. The Ube Pie was amazing and my favorite part of my meal. Crunchy crispy exterior with the yummy Ube filling which was warm and not too sweet but the perfect dessert! The 2pc chicken meal I ordered was yummy. I enjoyed dipping the chicken into the gravy and would love to try the spicy chicken next visit. The jolly spaghetti is good but not my favorite as it has too much sweetness for me being honest. The adobo rice was soooooo good and a must get item on the menu for me now. The entire meal was extremely delectable. I love Jollibee! Soooo good. Still thinking about that Ube Pie.

    A great addition to a culturally diverse food area!…read more The Jolibee on Rainer is one of many food spots offering a much needed change from the generic fast food restaurants! I never had to privilege of eating Filipino-inspired food like this, and when this place opened up it became a go to! Ambiance I prefer to DoorDash the food, but the inside is standard. Service I personally appreciate the staff. It does seem like they are busy but to me they are friendly Food THE FOOD IS TO DIE FOR. The spicy chicken is perfectly seasoned and crispy, which is a great plus, and their sides really hit the spot. My go to sides are adobo rice, white rice, and the spaghetti. I personally am not a fan of the mashed potatoes but the gravy is something you can put on both rice sides to kick it up a notch. The spaghetti on the other hand just tastes amazing. If it's your first time, I recommend the spaghetti first, then try the adobo rice. All in all, I highly recommend this spot!

My friends got the Wild West and Yakuza Fries. Wild West was meh, Yakuza fries had a lot of the sweet chili sauce which felt a little sickening after awhile. The Sultan Fries also seemed to have a bit of that sweetness at the bottom which seemed odd to me. There were also additional sauces on the table (ketchup, ranch, and honey mustard that they call Smexy Mustard). I liked the Smexy Mustard. I think a way to improve would be to fry the fries (and breaded shrimp in the Yakuza fries) a little longer so they're crispier and can hold the weight of the sauces. The really good item though is their fried chicken. I would recommend that over the fries. Get their fried chicken!! There's a parking lot across the street. Service was very nice; seems to be run by a couple of nice young guys. The place was pretty clean with the exception of some flies that circled the air. My friend accidentally sat on a fly too.

I love that they use 100% natural beef, non-GMO chicken and pork, and have organic tofu. Their sauces are made fresh everyday. And all of that while offering affordable pricing and delivering deliciousness. You can taste the freshness. I went here to pick up some for myself and others. I love that they had over 9 different versions of their burgers. You can order online, using their kiosk or through a person. And you can customize to your liking. I got their Wabi Wasabi katsu burger which includes a crispy natural beef katsu topped with pepperjack cheese, wasabi mayo and tonkatsu sauce. It has a hint of spiciness which I enjoyed. The katsu was moist and fried perfectly. All their burgers come by default with pickles, red onion, tomatoes, and lots of shredded cabbage. I got it without tomatoes and it was perfect for me. Everyone enjoyed their katsu burger. Besides their delicious katsu burger I also have tried their fries and wasabi coleslaw. They have different versions of their fries, including nori fries. I got the regular sea salt fries with a wasabi aioli. It was pretty good. The wasabi coleslaw is probably the only thing I wouldn't get again. I did like that it had edamame in it but I didn't taste any wasabi. I also didn't like that it had bell peppers in it. The burgers took some times to make but it was well worth it. This location is pretty large and has plenty of places to sit and eat. They also have their own lot so parking was easy. If you are looking for an affordable Japanese fusion spot then this is definitely it. I would come back again and again when I visit Seattle.

    Being a foodie, it's hard not to compare a recent meal here with all the changes that's happened…read moresince I've eaten at any location a long time ago... I decided on a whim one day to get some food here to change up my usual rhythm of getting a Vietnamese sandwich, so I got here on a Saturday for some lunch to take out. This particular location hasn't had too much of a structural change since I've passed by here when I used to eat at the now-closed Hong Kong Seafood Restaurant. If anything, it still smells heavily of fried oil inside, and tables and chairs here give a regular fast-food vibe. You order what you want through one of two kiosks near the front, and you can pay by cash at the front counter; otherwise you pay for most meals by card. Food took maybe about 10 minutes to come out, and I was actually kinda excited to have McDonald's again after a really long time of not having it. Then came the food, and wow I got things to say: - I got two large French fries, and wow have portion sizes shrunk considerably! I remember they used to be in red-colored cardboard cartons but now they're in paper bags that are much smaller than before. The fries weren't even oversalted like they were back then (though that technically shouldn't be a bad thing). - The same goes for the 20 chicken nuggets I got; they came in two small paper bags holding 10 nuggets each. But quality for these hasn't changed much, and were still all right. - My biggest disappointment was the spicy deluxe McCrispy burger. The condiments (like tomatoes and lettuce) were all right, though the patty could have been crisper. The buns were too soft for me, and I'm pretty sure I heard my burger "fart" while I was clenching onto it... it was the hot sauce that was oozing from the burger. Overall very low quality burger that doesn't have much going for it. Most things here are actually all right and would warrant a 3-star rating from me on a normal basis. But what really caused my rating to be 2 stars instead was that my stomach felt quite uncomfortable after eating everything, and I did realize I felt a little germaphobic just going inside the restaurant. Not that that's an abnormal thing given many locations I've been to are also like this. Of course, "What'd you expect from fast food???" is what I would be asked here, but it's good to give some places a try - with some exceptions like this place, of course.
