We were able to track down the Boonseek yesterday at Ka-Fair in Morningside. We ordered and they gave us a buzzer to let us know when our order is ready. The food comes out pretty quickly. The corn dogs are MASSIVE and you have the option to put potato on them. We also split the Korean fried chicken, the mandoo, and the Kim-bob. It was all delicious and reasonably priced.

The BoonSeek is one of the best food trucks in Pittsburgh. I continually go out of my way to go to the establishments that they are going to. Their staff is always so friendly and kind, the food never takes long and is so good.

I first discovered The Boonseek about two years ago, when looking for a spot in Pittsburgh to try a Korean Korn Dog. Since then, I have been a huge fan. I follow their Instagram account, find myself checking their schedule whenever it is released, and will try to patronize if they are in the area I am in! For this visit, I found them at Forbe's Hospital in Monroeville on a Thursday around 1:00 PM in June. There was no line at the truck, so I put my order in right away. They typically create a welcoming atmosphere and are friendly. They have a smaller menu, but I have personally tried everything at one point or another, and it is all great. All of the food is prepared fresh, so it usually takes a few minutes for your order to be ready. Sometimes, you will even catch them making and prepping the Korn Dogs, which is fun to see! They hand you a buzzer, and it will vibrate once your order is up. On this visit, I ordered two Boon Seekers, and added Potato Topping to one. I also ordered a Cheese Seeker. The Potato Topping adds some great texture to any of the Korn Dogs, but they are just as great without any topping! I appreciate how they put the ketchup and mustard on the dogs for you, but they will also have more available in bottles that you can help yourself to as well. As always, I enjoyed the Korn Dogs from this visit. Really, you can't go wrong with anything this food truck offers. I have typically always had a positive customer experience each time I have visited The Boonseek. This particular visit, I was waited on by an employee I do not recall ever seeing before. Truthfully, she was not super accommodating and did not allow for me to use the payment method I preferred. I typically will pay with cash here, as I believe you save a little on the credit card fees (or at least that is how it was previously). She did not want me to pay cash because she had plastic gloves on, and it would be easier for her to have me pay card. I am not sure why she could not just throw the gloves away, but this rubbed me the wrong way. I am not certain, but I do believe she also turned a group away from ordering right after me. This was confusing because they were advertised to be there until 2, and it was well before when this group arrived. Additionally, I am not sure if they recently got a second or different truck, but I remember it being a different truck any time I had visited previously. So, I am not sure if this employee only works in this truck or what the deal is. I am hoping that this was just a one-off experience, because I have never had a non-positive visit before this one. Overall, I would recommend for everyone to visit The Boonseek whenever they are near. They travel around all over the area, so it is likely you will see them near you. The prices are very fair, and I feel that you get a great value for what you pay. Typically, the service and customer experience is great. Plus, they have a more unique offering than most food trucks, which is always welcomed.

Kim-Bob veggie roll: seaweed paper, rice, tofu, egg, carrot, spinach, pickled radish, sesame oil, soy sauce Cheese seeker Korean style corn dog: bread flour, rice flour, mozzarella cheese, yeast, salt, sugar, ketchup, honey mustard

Staff was soooo nice and helpful. Food was delicious! We originally ordered a sausage seeker and a cheese seeker! It was so good that we week back and got another one! My only wish is that they would do a completely cheddar one, but with it being small and quick, it completely makes sense. It was great! Highly recommend! Next time we're in Pittsburgh, we will go again!!

Incredible Korean corn dogs in the Pittsburgh area! I'd never tried this dish until checking out this food truck, and I'm obsessed with them. If you aren't familiar, it's a crunchy outer shell with one of three options inside: all meat, meat and cheese, or all cheese. On the outside, the crunchy coating is dusted in cinnamon sugar (don't knock it 'til you try it!) and ketchup/mustard. You can also add a fried potato coating in addition to this, which I strongly recommend. I usually do meat and cheese with the potato coating! The truck also offers other Korean dishes, which are all very delicious. They are often parked all over the Pittsburgh area, and their Instagram is where you can find their schedule for any given week. They are worth seeking (no pun intended) out whenever you get the chance! Friendly service, efficient ordering process, reasonable prices, all a win in my book!

Korean style Korndogs and street food, food truck. Consistently amazing quality and even though they typically always draw a line, it goes pretty quick. Their Korndogs are so perfect and amazing. All corndogs come with sugar, ketchup and honey mustard. There are three different kinds of dogs- one is just the mozzarella - Cheese Seeker, one is just the sausage- Meat Seeker and one is half sausage and half mozzarella- the Boon Seeker. The Boon Seeker is what I highly recommend. Comes on a stick and is flavor filled. You have the option to add potato topping or beef bulgogi toppings for extra cost. They also serve Veggie rolls (Kim-Bob), Dumplings (Bulgogi Mandoo) and Koren fried chicken (Chi-Bob). Simple but so delicious. Be sure to follow to see where they park next and try one for yourself.

This was a really cool experience. It definitely surpassed what I thought. I was very nervous but it ended up being really good. Next time I am going to be more adventurous than just getting cheese

Visited here finally after wanting to try it for months at Eleventh Hour Brewing in Lawrenceville. The staff were very nice and kind, and the food was delicious! We didn't have to wait very long. They can also give you a buzzer so you can go have a beer inside while you wait. We tried the sausage (more like a hotdog) and mozzarella cheese corn dog thing. We also tried the beef dumplings. everything was so good!!! the "corn dogs" have a sugar coating which for some may be a turn off but I love it. it makes it the perfect salty sweet compliment, especially with the mustard drizzled on top. A great stop to try if you are in the area!

Everything is quite good and the menu is rather unique. They specialize in Korean street food and they do it well. The Cheese Corn Dog is very cheesey and delicious. I also tried the Chicken, which was tasty.

The food I got from this truck was really good! The line was kind of long, but they worked diligently and got my food out in a reasonable amount of time (definitely a bit of a wait though). I ordered the bulgogi mandoo and a cheese seeker (Korean corn dog with mozzarella cheese). Both items were delicious and piping hot when I picked them up. The mandoo came in a decent portion and were extremely flavorful. They are not too doughy, and it's packed with meat, vegetables, and glass noodles. They are super savory and honestly don't even need sauce to enjoy, although they give you complimentary soy sauce. I loved their Korean corn dog. It is crispy and sweet on the outside, with lots of gooey cheese on the inside. Perfect breading ratio. There are a few sauces you can add, like mustard, ketchup, or Mayo, and I recommend this mayo. It goes really well with the corn dog. All in all, the place makes delicious food for fair prices. Portions are okay, and sometimes there might be a wait, but it's worth it. The menu is very small and limited, but the food they make is amazing. Try a corn dog!

I have been eyeing this food truck ever since I stepped on to CMU campus 4 years ago, and now I'm my last week of classes as a senior, I finally made it! The Boonseek on CMU always has a line, which means it has to be good! They serve some authentic Korean street food, and are best known for their Korean corn dogs! I had to get the Boonseeker, which was 1/2 mozzarella and 1/2 hotdog, because that was what the truck is named after. And we also got an order of the bugolgi mandu, which my girlfriend loves! The boobseeker was delicious, and was a nice mix of savory and sweet that made every bite delicious! I was surprised on how quickly I finished it without even realizing! I highly recommend coming to CMU to try it, or looking on their Instagram account to see where they'll be during the week!
