Just tried their caesar avocado turkey wrap today and am so impressed! V fresh and light. Dressing is served on the side so it's not soggy. Thank you!!! read more

I don't usually enjoy leaving negative reviews, but after the horrible experience I had here, I needed to. I came here on 5/19 with a friend to celebrate his bday at the museum. After spending nearly $50 on two mediocre burgers (WITH tip!), fries and drinks, the woman handing off my order refused to give me an extra ranch unless I paid $1. I literally laughed. Are you kidding me? I politely explained I paid for two meals to which she replied "it's ONE per order". Mind you, it wasn't even a fresh homemade ranch or anything, it was some pre-packaged ranch cup. Not only that, but they don't even offer straws because "the science museum doesn't allow it". Yet they have PAPER cups and PLASTIC lids. Make that make sense. Garbage service, garbage food and ridiculous prices that I refuse to pay ever again. I should have asked for the tip I paid back, but know better for next time to never come back to this dump again. read more

Pretty good stuff! Had a Trimana at my old work building and never had a complaint about their food. I remember loving their fries and how perfectly crispy they were. I ordered the chili cheese fries, pizza and tenders. read more

This shop is located inside the Science Center and replaced the old McDonalds I remember when bringing my own childrena couple decades ago. The food includes Mexican food and also Pizza, which seems to be the popular choice. The food came up really fast, and was enough to keep the grandsons happy. Tables are throughout the food court and kept clean by Science Center staff and very small crowds this day. read more

Good food and friendly workers. Very helpful and attentive. The ambiance is normal for a museum. But over all a good place

I eat here all the time. The Cilantro lime chicken sandwich is my favorite amongst other options. The staff are friendly, nice and helpful. There's plenty of space to eat and being at the California science center across from the rose garden is very nice as well. read more

I stop here regularly on my lunch break as I work in the area, the food is surprisingly delicious for a restaurant located in a museum. Plenty of seating , and an outdoor patio area which makes for a great lunch on a sunny so cal day. The museum is free to enter so anyone in the area can stop in and enjoy the delicious pizzas, sandwiches and the cheeseburger is fresh and tasty. They also have a mini mart if you're just looking to get a refreshment. By today's standards, prices are very fair for what you get. Overall I really enjoy this place and keep coming back. read more

We ordered a Steak Mushroom Sub ($19). It was tastier and bigger than what I was expecting. The only downside was the first half we ate had all the steak and the second half only had all the veggies and mushrooms. It was very imbalanced. The fries that came on the side were pretty tasty too, I was glad they gave us ketchup packets on the side. They had a soda fountain with a few options but I chose to purchase a glass Coke ($4) at the store next door. There's seating options inside or outside. The day was pleasant since we come from the Coachella valley which is much hotter. You can people watch as you eat, there's a path just beyond the seating area so many people pass by. The other tables are usually with kids that are very active. We caught a few kids playing Pokemon with a plushie ball and were tossing them at each other and even tried to catch a pigeon. read more

The pizza was better than we expected it to be, and the burger was decent. Museum food is always on the pricier side, but, this wasn't too bad. The folks working were friendly, service was fast and we sat outside enjoying the sunny day and trees in bloom. read more

Oh wow, the food in the museum has definitely changed since I've been here as a child, we came for Go for Stacks to see the Space Shuttle for the last time in the museum and of course my kid was I'm hungry. So we ventured towards where I remember was McDonalds' I was happily surprised to see all the food options. We had just arrived before they closed and I thought we would get already made pizza but it was made to order so it was nice and melty for my pizza loving kid. I am so glad we didn't order two pizzas since the individual was big for even my kid to have leftovers. We opted for the Mexican area of food and it was again large in portion and most importantly delicious. read more

Came here for lunch after work. As NHM next door used to have the Trimana Grill. As you see I got the usual! Cheese burger or what is referred to the %100 Angus double cheeseburger with Bacon (Which is extra) and comes with the side of fries. There was no line as it wasn't rush hour. The servers there are very nice and quick! Which I appreciate! Got the buzzer that signals when your food is ready to pick up. Didn't wait long and once I arrive to pick it up the servers kindly asked if I wanted some condiments. It's been some time that I haven't had a nice cheeseburger from Trimana, therefore I enjoyed it! Next time I'll order the chicken strips and or pizza which are very delicious as well. Maybe as a quick snack of course. Also a very reasonable price since you're visiting the Science Center or other neighboring Museums! read more

Horrible. $12 for three small pieces of chicken? They were so small and for that size i felt like I was being robbed. I asked if they can at least give me another small piece to make up for something and they said they'd have to charge me extra for it. Horrible. read more

Really awful experience eating here. Came with my family and really needed to eat and it seemed like the only option. I chose to try to chicken sandwich based on one of the descriptions on their menu. Sadly, when my sandwich came out it was nothing as described. It had bell peppers, mushrooms, onions, dry chicken and cheese. No sauce, super dry and unappetizing. I went up to the counter to ask the issue and a girl said I read the wrong menu that was next to their other menus and they had not updated it. She acted like it was my problem for their own negligence. Super unprofessional and honestly just a gross experience. My family ordered burgers and those were just as bland. Mind you, this nasty food is expensive. What a waste of money, such a disappointment. Please do not eat here and spend your money on a bacon wrapped hotdog at a vendor or something. read more

I've been back at the Science Center many times since my last review but never tried the eateries on the other side. Came through on a random weekday, I decided it was time for a try. I ended up at Pizza Benne/Taco Limon (Yeah, it is ONE place) and debated about either a pizza or a burrito. The only reason the burrito won out is because it's a weekly special! Put in that order with "no beans, no cilantro please?" and it only took all but 5 minutes to get the order out. It came with a side of chips and salsa which was above decent. The burrito, though! The fish was seasoned and fried to near perfection. There was also a proportional amount of veggies. What sorta brought the whole thing down is the fact that both fish and veggies were drowning in too much rice! It might as well have been a rice burrito with fish and veggies. They really need to portion the ingredients better. I ended up having to open the whole thing up and discard some rice. (I hate wasting food!) FOOD: 3. (They can do better! I know it!) SERVICE: 3. No other interaction other than putting in the order and getting paged once my order was completed. VALUE: 3. Although I could have had something better for the cost. PARKING: $15 since it is the California Sciences Center. OVERALL: 3. Really mediocre at best. I almost regret not having a pizza instead... .. and that's probably what I'm gonna have next time I come through. read more

Ate here for the convenience as opposed to the food. Located inside the CA science center, it's one of your few dining options. What I ate: - Chili and cheese fries: Pretty standard. Chili was flavorful, fries became the right kind of gooey from the chili and cheese. Pretty filling for me Pros: - Right in the CA science center, no need to leave the museum to feed the kiddos lunch. - Menu had a bit of everything, but I don't know about ordering a salad from a place like this. I think I'd opt for their grill items like burgers and hot dogs - They had a small kids menu, which I was thankful for - Price was right - Plenty of seating inside, and a nice patio outside as well - Staff was pretty diligent about cleaning and wiping down the tables pretty quickly. The area was neat and clean Cons: - Not the BEST food in the world. But no complaints. It saved me the trouble of having to pack lunches and lug them around the museum Would I come again? If I was coming to the CA science center and was too lazy to pack lunch, then yes. read more

Trimana - Carne asada fries - Mexican Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I ordered the closest to a vegan option, which is a veggie wrap. Make sure you let the cashier know you want no cheese. $17.50 is really pricey for such a small wrap with very few ingredients. I'm glad I double checked with the cashier because I had ordered the veggie wrap and she inputted chipotle chicken wrap. The wrap also came with kettle chips, a cookie, and a banana. The kettle chips are labeled vegan and it's made in canola oil and seasoning. She helped me check with the kitchen and the fries do not contain milk in it. I also ordered a PB and J ($11) that also included kettle chips, cookie, and a bag of chips. The bread they used for the PB and J was so hard. Not a fan. I found it extremely unsanitary that the cashier wore gloves to not only to push buttons on the register and held onto the pen and the receipt, but she also put the kettle chips into the bags. Management should really go over proper sanitary procedures with their crew. read more

Trimana at the Science Center is great! I've been coming here for a while now on my lunch and I've always had a great experience eating here. At this point I've tried most of their menu items and the common stuff like pizza and burgers are always good but the best food is their manager special that changes every few weeks. They've had Cuban Sandwiches, Pastrami Sandwiches (my personal favorite) and Carne Asada fries and they're so good. The staff is always really kind, there's been a couple times where my order wasn't exactly complete but they always make it up and apologize for the inconvenience. I really appreciate everything they do, they always make sure you're taken care of even on the busiest days. read more

Trimana is one of a few eateries at the California Science Center (or as you may see it written "ScienCenter"). The chicken tortilla soup ($5) sounded promising, so I ordered that. I only wished that the flour "tortilla chips" that came with it weren't crispy chip-style - just plain tortillas. I ordered a cheeseburger for my husband and the guy repeated "CHEESEburger with fixing set up on side," then I get my receipt and he charged me for a plain burger ($7.60). They also have some options for younger kids. The chicken strips with fries ($5.95) seemed to be alright. After a touring of the King Tut exhibition, this isn't a bad option and won't hurt your wallet too bad if you're not so enthused about it afterwards. It's fine for us since we live in the L.A. area, but if you're an out-of-towner, I would definitely try to make arrangements to have a nice dinner elsewhere in the vicinity.

We dined here after finishing the King Tut Exhibit around noon, and before our Imax movie; Mysteries of Egypt. Various counters with a variety of foods that include Mexican, Pizza, Burgers, Salads, etc. We chose Mexican (Taco Limon). Average tasting Mexican choices of Nacho Grande for my wife and Taco Salad for me. 2 soft drinks as well with free refills. There is a free condiments section of the napkins/utensils bar that is basically bottles of hot sauce. $1.00 extra for salsa. I found my Taco Salad too chewy, with an over abundance of tough beef and tortilla chips which I wouldn't order again. While my wife thought the salsa was way too spicy. For me, not so much until after you've saturated your food with it. I'd probably just stick with a burger and fries next time. read more

located inside the california science center...food court area ground level...burgers, pizza, sandwiches, hot dogs, fried fish or chicken strips, fries, etc...a long line to the counter, but moves quickly...take a buzzing pager after and wait...on a busy weekend, the wait for food was about 15 minutes...the burger was overcooked dry and hard....chicken in the sandwich was same...fries were okay...pizza was comparable to subpar frozen pizza from the market...eat here out of convenience, but recommend going out to eat...one main concern was the food pick-up area...while the workers are masked and gloved, the food is left on the pick-up table unguarded...people were touching and moving other people's food with their bare hands to check the ticket number...little children were grabbing fries and poking at food that didn't belong to them...it was little disgusting and unsanitary... read more

We had a great time eating at Trimana on the 1st floor of the California Science Center. There were lots of different options which was helpful with a big group of people. The portions were large and the staff was very accommodating. I ordered a junior PB&J meal for my toddler but it comes with kettle chips which are too hard for him to eat. They gave me a lot of other options and we decided to go with getting an extra banana instead of the chips. We absolutely LOVED the BBQ Chicken pizza! Loaded with toppings but not too much that you couldn't hold the slice. It easily fed two hungry adults as it's much bigger than a personal pizza. We will definitely be eating there again when we come back to the science center! read more

We ate at this cafe because we didn't have enough time to drive elsewhere to have a late lunch, we were on tight schedule for "Body Worlds" exhibit. I think this place is not bad at all for a museum cafe, decent selections of coffee, teas, juices, salads, burgers, sandwiches, pizzas, hotdogs and desserts, also a small market for snacks and beverages if you are in a hurry. We shared citrus salad with grilled chicken and grilled chicken sandwich with fries, veggie and fruit juices. The portions and flavors were much better than I expected that was a satisfying lunch for sister and I. We later had vanilla and green tea ice cream, iced mocha and cappuccino as desserts before we left the museum. The prices were not cheap especially the beverages, but they were not exactly terrible, the food came out fast enough, and the staffs were very friendly and pleasant. I'd say this is not a bad place to have a quick lunch or snacks for exposition park and surrounding museums visits. read more

So.... we bought pizza and grilled sandwich. Food was ok, but after seeing how they clean, I'm a little bit freaked out. The workers weren't busy so the boss is around... and you see everyone busying themselves with cleaning the glass windows in and out. Imagine windex flavored ice cream and cookies and pastries... yummy!! Don't they realize that if you spray inside the glass, it falls on the food you are spraying around too?? Gross!!! What's a little windex right!!! Fixes everything ( My Big Fat Greek Wedding) Well, at least I hope this gets to management and they can teach their workers to properly clean the glass (spray it on the paper towel first) without spraying all that crap in what they are selling.... read more

This is definitely one of those places that I'm grading on a very specific scale. I would never drive out of my way to eat here, but compared to other places like it, it's excellent. Museum food tends to be expensive. Often very, very expensive. But Trimana is eminently reasonable, with plenty of $10 and under options. There are "mini restaurant" options with separate windows: a grill, a market, a cafe, a pizza/pasta place, and a Mexican option. There are both kid-friendly and adult-friendly options. Nothing amazing, but lots of reasonable, well-prepared food. Plus the timing is good. The science center gets MOBS of visitors, and the setup is great for getting people fed efficiently. Order at the counter, wait with your buzzer, find seating at tables inside or out. Condiment and napkin stands set up at multiple locations. Food comes out in good time, and there's dedicated crew cleaning off tables as they're vacated. I wish all museums had dining options like Trimana. read more

Considering that this is a restaurant inside the California Exposition Center it was actually pretty good.
