So, I was fortunate enough to be able to get The Lobos Truck and I got their 'Classic' waffle fries nacho plate. Brisket, bacon, and mac and cheese were the main players but ranch dressing, Lobo sauce and more cheese were also involved. I thought the price tag was a little steep-because I was expecting a pretty small cardboard serving tray with a couple slivers of brisket, a scattering of bacon bits. I was WAY OFF, when my order was ready and I picked it up it was the giant styrofoam tray you see before you-and it was LOADED with brisket and bacon and mac and cheese just spilling out everywhere. I figured the utensil would be unnecessary, figuring I could just scoop up the toppings easily. I obviously needed it to wade through all the richness that was the Wachos. I'll be sure to look for them again soon, hopefully I'll have skipped a meal or two at that point. read more

Nt and Ponder were awesome. My mom and I enjoyed the food. It was a while ago so I don't remember details, but I know we had a great experience when we were there. read more

Upon arrival, the girl working greeted me with a big smile. I informed her that I was using a groupon to purchase and she mentioned to me that I couldn't order any of the premium items.. which turned out to be just about everything on the menu. I got the chicken bacon burger and also ordered 2 small burgers and an order of the chicken wings. The burgers overall were nothing great. The bread to meat/veggie ratio was so off. Taking a bite, all I could taste was bread. I ended up just eating the meat and veggies. The chicken wing l was not very tender. I am going to take a guess and say these were frozen. The sauce was the best part. I got a green spicy sauce and it had a kick to it. I don't think I would go back... food was mediocre at best. read more

@TheLobosTruck is intense! Intense is the perfect word that I can think of when I think of the Lobos Truck. How else can I describe their food? This is their wachos: (http://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=HUMCbF82FOeekDHA-fmMsg&userid=H4BiIX0gU-Fc2S487g7z1Q) Wachos are waffle fries turned nachos. There was so many different flavors going on with this one that it can be a bit overwhelming. There's bleu cheese, avocado, hot wing sauce and more. It's crazy mix of all kinds of flavor. I'm glad I shared this with friends because I don't know if I can handle all that intensity by myself. Haha! It's definitely best shared. There's just too much going on in these wachos to for you to not share. This is their bacon brownie with salted caramel. (http://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=_m2IBewQqdMbR5M0aM4MCw&userid=H4BiIX0gU-Fc2S487g7z1Q) It's a perfect sweet and savory treat! My friend actually got this one and it was one nice looking brownie. I will definitely have to try this sweet gem next time! From the taste and looks of the above food, I am definitely curious to see the other food that this truck has to offer. Interested much or shall I say intensity much ;). read more

I've been wanting to try The Lobos Truck for a while. Several weeks ago I stood in line for about 30 minutes anxiously awaiting the taste of wachos, only to learn (when we were close to the front of the line) that they had run out of waffle fries. So, sadly, we had to go get in another ridiculously long line. So, when I saw them parked by my office building after lunchtime with only a few customers, I went and got in line. The guy taking my order was very personable but after placing my order, he informed me that the register didn't open so they could only accept exact change or a credit card. I'd only brought down cash so I had to go back to my office to get an acceptable form of payment. When I returned, they'd already started my order so I didn't have to wait long. I got the wings with their angel sauce, which is a sweet bbq hot sauce, and the wachos with cheese and ranch. The order was presented with a little sauce on top of the wings and the wings were sitting on top of the fries. So, I had bbq wings on one side and cheesy-ranch wings on the other... The fries were difficult to eat because they were soggy and they mostly fell apart from being covered in sauce. I can't imagine how tough the other wacho combinations are to eat given the numerous toppings. The wings unfortunately didn't save the day. The order was small (4), they were very fatty, and they had almost no meat. Skip those. In theory, the wachos sounded great but in reality, they weren't that good. Topped, covered, tossed, and drenched fries are a little over done these days. But, when done well, they're deliciously unhealthy! It's tough to mess up frozen, fried food but this meal just didn't work for me. And definitely not for $11.50. read more

The Lobos Truck is a Los Angeles based food truck I have been scoping out for awhile. Being as they are from Los Angeles and I am rarely in the area, I didn't know how much luck I would have running into them. Luckily for me I was notified of them being in Cypress for the Tuesday Night Roach Coach Roundup at the Home Depot. We had already previously made plans to meet up with some friends for this event so the opportunity worked out and was far to good to pass up. I had gone on their website earlier in the day and already had a preconceived idea as to what I wanted to order, unfortunately when we arrived to the truck the ribs (which were part of the option I wanted) were not on the menu for the night. I opted instead to go with the Wachos & Wings combination so that I can try multiple menu items at once. Upon ordering we were told that there unfortunately would be a 45 minute wait for wings as they were not prepped. WHAT! I was shocked that something that was not prepped or ready to be served to customers was even on the menu to begin with. After several minutes I finally relented and said that I would wait... My wife went with the Chinook burger which consist of a 1/3lb. American/Kobe Beef patty with garlic aioli, cheddar, lettuce and tomato on a brioche bun. She seemed to really enjoy the burger although she said she honestly couldn't tell the difference with it being Kobe beef. After about a 12 minute wait my food was in the window and low and behold the wings were there as well (they said they ended up finding some, so score a point for me!). For my Wachos, I went with the cheesy ranch variety with has cheddar cheese, house-made cheese sauce and ranch and for the wings I went with the Diablo. The wings were very spicy which I liked but were a bit under cooked, a couple more minutes in the fryer and we'd be good to go. The Wachos were very good and had great flavor and the waffle fries were cooked perfectly. After getting off the a shaky start things definitely turned around and I really enjoyed the meal. The service was friendly, the pricing was decent (just a tad high) but I found the portions to be nicely done. I have already seen several other items on the menu that I really want to try so it is a matter of time before I track down the truck again for another grubfest. read more

So talkative and inquisitive -- very social. The Lobos Truck gets my vote for nicest food-truckers on the planet! (5.0 stars) 1. Little Lobos Burger - big, beef patty, bacon, cheddar & jack cheese, quac, fried egg, fried onions, tomato, on a super fresh brioche bun. Wonderful combined flavors -- a total winner and top 15 on my "Berger knows: Burgers" list (http://www.yelp.com/list/berger-knows-burgers-los-angeles-4). I didn't want it to end. (5.0 stars) 2. Mac & Cheese - simple and fresh, but a little sticky and lacked flavor...needed salt. (4.0 stars) With a nice selection of unhealthy options at a more than fair price point: burgers, waffle fries, and mac & cheese -- there's plenty to do some damage to your waistline. PS. Sharon, Bonnie, and Queso -- you rock! read more

I noticed a food truck rally across the street from work so went over to see if anything looked interesting...ended up trying out The Lobos Truck. I ordered the baby back ribs (4) and a salted caramel bacon brownie. The ribs surprised me. Very tender and meaty with a sauce that had a delicious tanginess and a kick of heat. I'd have never thought that I'd get baby back ribs this good from a truck. The brownie was good but not great. The flavors were wonderful and me, Mr. Sweet Tooth, appreciated that they put gobs of Ghiradelli caramel sauce on it. But the brownie was a little dry and the bacon was too hard. If the bacon had been more crunchy rather than hard I'd have been pleased. Definitely a truck I'd recommend. read more

I saw a Groupon for Lobos Truck the other day and I had to buy it. It was $13 for 2 entrees and 2 drinks! What a steal! They stop by in front of my work building every now and then so it was pretty convenient for me to check them out. The Chinook: 1/3 lb. American-Kobe beef burger with garlic aioli, cheddar, lettuce, and tomato on a fresh Brioche bun. The burger was nothing special - just average. It was cooked medium rare as requested and it was well seasoned. OG Wachos: With everything. What are Wachos you ask? Waffle Fries + Nacho Toppings = Wachos. Came with Avocado, Cheese, Onions, and much more. It was amazing. The waffle fries were crisp and flavorful and it went well with all the toppings. I wish there was some heat to it though! Green Dragon Wachos: Waffle fries with Green Dragon Sauce, Guacamole, Scallions & Ranch. The Green Dragon Sauce had that kick I wanted in the OG Wachos! Pretty good as well. My coworkers that tagged along with the Groupon deal also enjoyed the food! Will come back if I see more Groupon deals. read more

This food truck was a godsend that came to UCLA Powell Library during finals week. I came out of my 24/7 finals grind at the library with high anticipation for a great burger from this truck. I wasn't let down. The line was a little long just because there were many similar-minded students there. Me and my friend looked at the menu and we found it to be, well, let's just say food-truck-priced. However, I happened to find a groupon on this truck. And you get an amazing deal for half the price! 2 entrees and 2 drinks for essentially a little over the price of 1 entree and a drink. The groupon deal made the whole meal worth it. However, without the groupon, I don't think I would come here again. I ordered the chinook burger, a burger with american-kobe beef and a brioche bun. Those sound great in concept, but the execution was a little spotty. When I ordered with the groupon, the lady at the cash register was actually really nice about it and said of course I could use it and continued to help me order with the utmost kindness. They had run out of a few things though because it was so late at night (around 12). My chinook burger was made exactly how I felt like it could have been made. However, the patty didn't have much flavor, and the brioche bun was exactly as sweet as you can imagine. That just ended up overpowering the relatively bland patty and the rest of the burger. Every bite, I just felt like I was eating a brioche bun, with some other stuff inbetween. I enjoyed it, but probably because I was really hungry during finals. Seems like there are quality ingredients, but the flavor of the burger is a little lost. Next time I might try the wachos. read more

I'm sad I ate here. I'm taking a shot of apple cider vinegar as I write this - my stomach has been killing me since I ate the food. I thought the fried chicken sandwich would look like the picture: a hefty, beautiful, perfectly fried, golden and hopefully juicy, chicken breast. Instead I was served a flat, round chicken patty - the kind they serve in a middle school cafeteria. If you like McDonald's chicken nuggets though, you'd like this. They use that jar of fake cheese for the mac n' cheese. The waffle fries were fried at such a low temperature (or they threw in too many frozen fries into the hot oil that it brought the temperature down) and the fries soaked up all the oil. Needlesss to say, it was greasy. If this is the only food truck around and you're starving, I get it. If you're in a location where there are multiple food trucks, I'd go to one where the food is hand crafted and not frozen. Anyone can take frozen food and throw it into a fryer. I forgot to add it took an hour to get my food. Least of my concern though. read more

Tried this place out last month. I was really excited to try one of the wachos I saw on the website, but was informed they couldn't make it in the truck because they didn't have all the ingredients. They were super helpful, and did their best to give me a dish similar to the one I was looking for. I also go the big bad lobo which was a burger served on waffle buns. They give you huge portions so plan on sharing your meal with a few people. read more

Five stars for their customer service from the owner and chef Queso! The owner Jasmine W. reached out to me after my experience and offered me a refund and a free meal. I was able to redeem it at one of their trucks that was located near USC. I was greeted by Queso, who is the sous chef for the Lobos Truck. He was kind enough to take all my requests for no toppings on the waffles fries except green onions. As a result, my waffle fries stayed crisp, crunchy and were seasoned well, which gave them great flavor and texture without the overload of toppings. I also had barbecue wings which were great, but still pretty standard. However, they were out of Hubert's Lemonade again, so I was not able to redeem my drink. The customer service I received this time definitely made up for the bad experience I had the first time visiting the Lobos truck. The food is still pretty standard for me, but they are very accommodating and strive to make sure that all their customers are happy! read more

My bf tracked this bad boy down for daysss- esp after he had a taste of their fried goodness at chinatown summer nights. I got a wake up call from him, eagerly telling me that the food truck is in dtla. He pretty much demanded me to get ready so we can pig out. I value my sleep but since he sounded sooo enthusiastic, i drag myself to get ready It was a mission finding this thang. We google mapped the location but we kept getting lost! He eventually called the # on yelp asking for help. Turns out, they were in a massive parking lot by the AA warehouse. After searching desperately for parking, I was honestly fed up with this food mission. When we arrived at the truck, I was so bitter that I didn't order anything. I told my bf I was uninterested in the menu. Being the smart man he is, he ordered enough food for two. When we got into the car, I was soo hungry, I decided to try the wachos he ordered. It. Was. Amazing. I ended up grabbing more and more and shoving it into my mouth. Before I knew it, I almost finished more than half of it and had to force myself to stop to share with my bf My mood was instantly lifted from the food. He also ordered chicken wings with diablo sauce? Idk what its called but the man warned us and said "good luck" to us because it was fire-y. Indeed it was. My TONGUE burned for 15 mins after 1 damn wing! My bf was fine but I stuck watermelon in my mouth to ease the burn I overall really enjoyed their food. It's honestly really really fried and unhealthy but it makes for a good cheat meal :) read more

The Lobos Truck - I like - Food Trucks Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I've tried them twice now, and every time was a disappointment. It's a pity, because their burgers look gorgeous, but they're flavorless. Both the Chinook and the Little Nook were unseasoned and overpriced. I don't mind paying $10 or $6 respectively if the food is good; but it wasn't. You'll find tastier burgers at a fast food joint. Ok, so the owner contacted me and wanted to offer a refund, which is great, but then never got back to me. Why bother contacting me in the first place? This isn't the only person that they've done this to either. I'm not upset, but frankly the good customer service that then fizzled out is head scratching. I'm posting a picture of the beautiful, but tasteless burger I had next in addition to this updated review. So sad. I might have given them another chance if they followed through with their offer, because I see them at my high school every year, but I'm staying away. read more

Get the TRUCK outta here! First time trying The Lobos Truck and I have to say this burger was delicious. Ordered the Chinook ($10.50) and this mid-size craft burger was juicy and tasty.

Now, I still don't know why it's called a Chinook, or whether that's even English or some mysterious Yugoslavian curse word, but I do know that the burger was very well cooked and tasted great. Simple ingredients and good quality make the Lobos Truck stand out. I will say that they could increase speed/efficiency, but that can be said about most food trucks. Stay Cheerful ;) read more

Tried the OG Wachos, since it was highly recommended...however I was quite disappointed. It was SUPER salty. The cheese and bacon were what made it too salty I think. I did however like the whopping scoop of avocado on it. I would try this truck again and try some other items on their menu. But from the initial item I tried, it did not give me a good impression of the remaining menu. Also, there were not many people ordering at that time...yet it took about 20 min to get the food.... read more

I'm so torn about this truck. It's outside work often, so I usually get something to share with my coworkers. First time was good, Cheesy Ranch Wachos were hot and the Chinook burger was good. They did run out of brioche though. Boo. The second time, Buff wachos were cold and the mac n cheese was meh and just disappointing. Maybe third time's a charm? We'll see... I still have a Groupon to use. Just skip the mac n cheese all together. Stick to the burgers and HOT wachos. read more

The prices do not include tax. On a $10.50 burger you get $.95 tax. Suggestion, just include the tax on the food truck. I'm trying out the Chinook burger. The Chinook burger is a third pound Kobe beef burger on a brioche bun with caramelized onions, romaine lettuce, tomato, garlic aioli, and cheddar and jack cheese. The Chinook was tasty, even though the burger patty was overcooked. I wanted medium rare and it was definitely well done. So the meat lacked flavor from being over cooked. The ingredients in the burger were good and covered up for the disappointment in the burger patty. The service was friendly. They just need a better cook. read more

I had heard great things about The Lobos Truck that I asked if they would be present at my work event to sell. They would be the only food vendor there for students and the community to enjoy. We had been talking for over a month to bring them to campus. They had confirmed they would show up, everything. The day of, they were a no show. Myself and my other staff called the individual we had been in contact with and the number of the driver who said would be coming, and no answer. Because they were the only food vendor, our guests did not have any food options. I never got an email apologizing or explaining what happened. Very poor customer service. read more

I love guacamole and ranch dressing. A lot. So, if you don't care about the quality of your ranch or guacamole then this place is great. Ranch tastes like Hidden Valley and the guac like Wholly Guacamole after letting it sit open all day. On a happier note, the mac was cheesy and the scallions were fresh! but the whites in my egg were so not done. Overall, not impressed. But I did like the mac à la carte. read more

Don't call them Los Lobos, because, you know, copyright infringement and all. They're The Lobos food truck! The Lobos catered an event that I attended, with all of their styles of wachos (waffle fries w/ nacho toppings) ready & waiting for me to stuff my face with them. I'm a huge fan of waffle/curly fries, so I was the veritable kid in the candy store when I saw The Lobos' wachos. Cheesy ranch wachos - The mild selection, these came with cheddar, house-made cheese sauce & ranch dressing. The fries were large, the cheese creamy & saucy. A good choice for the non-heat lover. Buffalo wachos - For those looking for a little more kick, the buffalo wachos come tossed with angel or diablo sauce, bleu cheese, bacon & scallions. Now this is more like it. A more substantial offering, with the crispy, salty bacon providing the protein source. Bleu cheese & scallions complete the dish. Green Dragon wachos - Green dragon sauce, scallions, ranch dressing &.........wait for it.........guacamole! This is the one to get & the most popular The Lobos item. I think the diablo sauce was slathered on my plate, because the Green Dragon was uber spicy for me. My palate was numbed & on fire before finishing half. What I did tasted, was great & de rigeur for a waffle fry aficionado like myself. I can see why the Green Dragon is so highly regarded. Service was good. The staff was quick with the fry turnover. I mentioned how I saw The Lobos featured on the KTLA morning news, with their truck being at the Long Beach Animal Shelter. It's great to know they have a regular presence at the shelter to help pooches find the homes they need. Watchout! I'm going wacho! The Lobos watchos are great, providing the trifecta - fat, salt & starch. They are a good size, with toppings that bring it all together. If you're up to it, get the OG that has everything on it! The Lobos food truck has a lot to offer & definitely shouldn't be passed up, by chance you see The Lobos truck in your neck of the woods. Highly recommend! NOMNOMNOMNOMNOMNOMNOMNOM read more

Another food truck I came across during my Santa Anita park visit and I'm happy I crossed paths with Lobos because this was the best of the trucks I ordered from. The Diablo burger and the buffalo wachos made a great combo together. The kobe beef from the burger was well seasoned, juicy and the Diablo sauce provided gave it one heck of a kick. The buffalo sauce on the waffle fries had a somewhat tangy flavor with some spice. The combination of the sauce, ranch, bleu cheese and bacon was delicious. Had I not been partially full from other trucks, I would have ordered more items. Looking forward to catching The Lobos Truck parked in the future. Lunch 5/7/2016 read more

Four star burger that I really wanted to give a five. One of the things that held me back from giving it a five, in my opinion, was that it had no bacon. I wish they added this to this burger because I do believe it would've given it that edge that it was lacking. The second thing was the stinginess of the serving size of guacamole. When you read guac on the menu, you expect a heaping amount and not a tablespoon size. Especially on a double patty burger. The fried egg was also not cooked enough. It had a lot of the egg white that was still chirpin and runny. On the positive side about the burger, the patties tasted as if they were charbroiled at home on your bbq and the cheese was gooey perfection. Another positive was the cheese ranch wachos (nachos/waffle fries) which were mouth watering good. read more

"So tell me Wacho want, Wacho really really want" - Spice Girls Wacho mean, what are Wachos? They're a signature creation of the Lobos Truck, consisting of waffle fries with nacho toppings. I think the definition of nacho "topping" is a little vague, because when I think of nachos I picture a generous amount of melted cheese sauce, beans, tomatoes, avocado, jalepenos, and a fat dollop of sour cream. They do not offer anything of that variety, unfortunately. I went to order Green Dragon Wachos, but the guy taking my order warned me that they were really, REALLY spicy. Thanks for the heads up! Nevermind! Take two: I ordered BUFF WACHOS ($7). These are really waffle fries that taste like buffalo wings. Again, nothing nacho about them, but no complaints here, they were delicious! With hot sauce, bleu cheese, bacon, scallions, and ranch, one serving made a decently sized meal. Dare I say...I thought this food truck was reasonably priced? YES! They offer other food too, like burgers, wings, ribs, mac n cheese, and salad. I thought the prices were good compared to other food trucks.

Chinook. Nope, not Salmon, but a Kobe beef burger. Had simple condiments, tomato, lettuce, mayo on a fancy bun. The meat was seared beautifully and tasted good. The only flaw was that there was too much bun for the amount of meat. The other thing that bothered me was the ordering. I asked for the Chinook ($10.50), she asked how I wanted it cooked, I said Med-Rare. She said that is an awful lot of pink, are you sure - of course. She said fries & soda for $3 more? I said maybe a side of spicy Mac & Cheese, she said the spicy is really spicy, are you sure you can handle it? I said, yes. She said that will be $16.50. I said, just the burger, please. She said that will be $11.55. I asked why, when the sign said $10.50 and she said they add taxes...Most trucks have their price including taxes, no surprises. AND, no, are you sure you want that?? Yes, lady, I know what I want. --------------------------------- Within 5 minutes of posting, I got a management message. Most management is not interested in Yelp reviews, so kudos to them.

Wacho Wacho (wo)man. I wanna be a Wacho (wo)man. Now that I got that out of my system (again) I love love their comfort food. Wachos: Crisscut fries with Nacho toppings. My favorite is the wings and wacho (four wings with the sauce of choice, and the wacho of choice). I love their BBQ and Angel sauce for the wings. I saw them in front of the Public Works building where I work. Danielle and Chef Jenifer are the best. They take pride in customer service and their truck. Their concern is that you love their food and can answer questions about their menu. Note: the food is made to order, so the wait can be long... depending on the amount of people who just ordered. Please make the truck a regular habit! But make sure you get some exercise after.. their comfort food is no joke. You'll need the exercise to stay awake after the meal. read more

5/13 EDIT:// The owner contacted me immediately after this review was posted and offered to make it up to me. She was horrified that I had such a terrible experience at her truck and offered to make reparations. She was incredibly personable and very willing to make improvements, and I think that's wonderful. I hope that if I ever decide to try The Lobos Truck again, she'll be there instead of the rude worker I encountered. ------ TLDR; The Lobos Truck has HORRIFIC service and is poorly organized. The hot sauce is great, but after the experience I had, I would not frequent the Lobos Truck ever again. --- I waited about an hour and a half for this truck and the line was moving at an excruciatingly slow pace. I don't know if they're just understaffed or poorly organized, but in any case, it was taking them a really long time to get out orders in a quick and efficient fashion. By the time I got to the front, they ran out of most everything. Though they boast of their wachos--so much so that they've plastered "home of the wacho" on the side of their truck--they hadn't come prepared with nearly enough waffle fries to accommodate the crowd that day. However, I managed to snag the very last order of OG fries and ordered their devil sauce (50 cents extra) on the side. When I received the OG fries, I saw that it didn't have the guacamole or the bacon as listed in its description. I went back to the window and asked very nicely where it was, and was greeted by a very defensive, very gruff, woman, who DEIGNED to talk to me. "WELL, WE RAN OUT OF BACON. WE TOLD EVERYONE," she said. No, you didn't. When I placed the order, the guy never said a thing about missing ingredients. It also still didn't account for the missing guacamole. If I'm going to pay about $7.50 for a small tray of waffle fries, I at least want it in its entirety. Rather than trying to placate me, she got really aggressive and asked, "Well, what do you want ME to do?!" Ugh. I did not want to give them my money, so I asked for a refund. She begrudgingly gave it to me, ripped the wachos from my hands, and left. Will never come to The Lobos Truck again. There are far too many food trucks out there to have to settle for this abhorrent treatment. read more

After having a busy summer season at work, my company decided to treat us to the Summer ending party. We had come to a vote and decided to have a food truck come to our workplace. I didn't realize that the food truck that I passed before at the Granada Hills Food Truck on Friday's would be coming to visit us. Well, I am glad this was saved for the right occasion. Let's go try out their infamous "Wachos" at The Lobos Truck. I have been waiting for the past couple weeks and the day finally came to enjoy The Lobos Truck offerings. When I saw the company e-mail, I wasn't sure if it was true, but my company booked one of the three trucks to stop by for three hours and cater for our company. Queso, the chef, came about 30 minutes early to stop by. Yup, he is the big cheese of one of the Lobos Trucks. He is accompanied by his partner, Sharon in that fierce red truck. Just like any food truck, you order through one and pick up through the other. Since this was a private catering event, we would not get the full menu, but the top menu items are up for grabs. Since I have been eating less red meat, I ordered one of their healthiest, greasiest burger called, the Portlander. Its a veggie patty, tomatoes, lots of garlic in a brioche ban. You get choice of a side: Waffle Fries, 2 wings or 2 ribs, and my favorite, mac and cheese. I haven't ordered the Wachos, yet. However, I did partake on the Salted Caramel Bacon Brownie. Queso, the chef, is very fast with the orders and I am sure our crowd is child's play compared to food truck events. Quest made the food fast and didn't break a sweat. Well, it probably was very hot in there. So there has to be some sweating! I got my Portlander and it was generously HUGE! You see the huge bun, the soy patty with lots of veggies in between. It was the juiciest, healthy burger I have had in a long time. Its so juicy that the patty tends to slip out once in awhile. The waffle fries that I had come along with it with it was crispy and delicious. Right after I picked up my Portlander, I forgot Sharon gave me Salted Caramel Bacon Brownie. On some days, I would get a Salted Caramel Sundae, but never a brownie. If its a popular dessert, why not try it. Its magnificent. Its sweet at one crunch, then the salty part kicks in at the end. Don't forget to try these dessert. Of course, since the company was paying for it, why not keep trying almost everything. I ordered their infamous, Wachos! We had two selections to choose from, the Cheesy Ranch or the Buffalo. I went in hot and got the Buffalo Wachos. If you don't know what is a Wacho, then prepared to learn the definition before you order. Its criss-cut fries with nacho toppings. The Wachos are covered in hot sauce that tingles the tongue. The hot sauce is accompanied by bleu cheese, bacon, and ranch sauce that neutralizes the hot sauce. Its amazing and having their wachos is going to be a must when you order from the Lobos Truck. OK...I am so not done yet. I ordered one more thing: Mac & Cheese. Plain and simple, but lots of cheese that can put yourself in a food coma...ESPECIALLY AT WORK! The cheese is so gooey that you'll have to eat everything before it cools off. Then it becomes difficult to eat. When you enjoy the Mac & Cheese, its so heavenly delicious that you have to finish it. It makes you want to be a kid all over again. When the Lobos Truck came by, Queso and Sharon were fantastic reps for this class act food truck. Sharon even took my phone and got some cool selfies in the truck. Anytime you see the Lobos Truck, you'll have to grab some Wachos and enjoy their fabulous menu items. Although they have a picture of a wolf on their truck, I would like to suggest the Lobos Team of putting some fangs in front of their truck or on their grill. That would add some fierce look and attract a lot more attention. Now, go get some WACHOS!! You think I write too much? Well, you can call me a Yelp-O-Holic! read more

I've seen the truck at Westchester's First Friday gathering for a while now. I've made it a personal mission to try all the trucks that stop by over a span of time (tldr: 1 new truck/month). The lines aren't usually long so wait times are short. This month I decided to fully try the Lobos Truck. In April I tried the cheesy ranch wachos (waffle fries topped with cheese sauce and ranch dressing) while I had a lobster roll from another truck. No line (plus!) which is random for 6 pm but no complaints. May: Thinking I'd have an equally good experience like in April, I caved & got a full meal this time. They sold burgers like crazy during April's first Friday gathering, which was another selling point for me. On LivingSocial, there was a deal for $24 worth of food for $12...enough to feed 2 people if you split the burger/wachos. I asked prior to ordering if the deal applied, they said yes so I immediately purchased it. I ordered the Chinook burger and OG wachos (yeah, I went nuts haha). Since I still had an additional amount outstanding I ordered 6 wings. I was over about $1.35 which is awesome. It takes a while to cook the burger so the wait is about 10-12 minutes, says the chef, and I'm okay with that. In the mean time I walked to Soundsations to browse. When I strolled back to the truck my order was ready. Can't get anymore perfect than that. I grab my order, go home, and open my food. Nothing wrong at first glance. I'm plating my food and see that the lettuce on which my burger sat on had dirt on it. Unwashed lettuce. Kind of takes away from the experience and meal. The burger was okay, the patty was a bit too thick and hard to swallow without washing it down with water. Wings were okay. June: This time I see that they're near my job. My co-worker said the line was short and in seeing his mac & cheese I was curious. I ordered the buffalo pig mac and used my card. Wouldn't go through. Odd. Last guy paid with one and it worked. Reason being that the signal, I guess, sucked in the area and slowed the system down. While waiting to see if the card would go through I try talking to the server. He came across as a not genuine person; you could hear it in his voice. Should've cancelled the order then. I walked out of line because I see that I'm holding it up with my card woes, went to the ATM, and came back to pay. My order had been prepared in that time I was gone. I wasn't gone long, maybe 7 minutes total, and I got it warm. Sigh. It was overly salty for my tastes (mac & cheese) and really congealed. Chicken was cooked well though. I'm done with the Lobos Truck for good. read more

The Lobos Truck - Dirty lettuce. Unfortunately I wiped a lot of it off before the picture, thinking it was just old/damaged lettuce. - Food Trucks Near Me - Los Angeles, California

As fries of any kind are my biggest guilty pleasure, I was really excited to try the Lobos Truck that I bought an AmazonLocal deal on a whim while being across the country months before actually making it back to LA to hunt down this truck. I had $20 to spend on this deal, which I originally thought was going to be difficult since this is a food truck after all, but it ended up being really easy (and that's not a good thing). One order of OG Wachos and one veggie burger (Portlander) was all that was needed to reach the $20 I had to spend. The first few bites of the OG Wachos were awesome, albeit a little bit on the salty side. But it got soggier and soggier as we reached the bottom, and we didn't end up finishing it. If there was a way to keep the wachos crispy until the end, I would've enjoyed it more (perhaps if the sauce was on the side as a dipping sauce?) The Portlander was just okay. I would return to get some Wachos to share if the truck was in the vicinity, but the price and the sogginess are just too much for me to take the effort to actively hunt the truck down. read more

They were outside of the BET building on a Friday but the lines weren't that long. I ordered the wachos n wings. First of all, I felt so silly saying wachos. Wachos wachos wachos. The first bite was amazing. The sauce and the crispness of the fries literally felt like there was a party going on in my mouth. However, after the eighth bite or so, the fries get really really soggy and all of the delicious sauce also somehow gets soggy. And then you start feeling all icky and unsatisfied with your lunch because of all the grease. And then you remember how much your lunch cost. And then you go to Yelp and write a bad review. read more
