    Loaded cowboy fries
    Judah Y.

    Loaded cowboy fries were very good but a bit too much for me. The shredded cheese, cheese sauce, bbq sauce AND aioli was wild. I felt the cheese sauce wasn't necessary since there was already real cheese. I would have preferred just having extra shredded cheese and have it melted more than the cheese sauce. But I split it with my friend and she loved the cheese sauce! It was $18 then an additional $5 for the meat which I find to be over priced for some loaded fries. I've had larger portions for cheaper. It was a quick turn around time and the service was nice. The biscuit fried Oreos had to be one of the best fried Oreos I've ever had! The fruity pebbles and powdered sugar was just right and not too much. I'd like to try their downtown dog but that also seemed overpriced to me.

    This food truck exceeded my expectations with its mouthwatering selection of food options. The tenderness of the pulled pork on the loaded fries we order was flavorful showcasing the chef's expertise. The service was impeccable, and they also offered me a free side of macaroni and cheese, since they had an extra one which was extra extraordinary. The location of this food truck was placed perfectly, which was in front of a brewery in Culver City.

    Downtown Dog

    Uncle Al's BBQ is my favorite food truck in LA. I've had food from Al's a couple times, and everything has been fantastic. I want to try the whole menu. I've had the Motha' Cluckers (wings), the Cowboy Fries, the Downtown Dog, and the Three Little Piggies (pulled pork sliders), and each item has been amazing. The food is flavorful, savory, sweet, and so tasty. I highly recommend trying Uncle Al's BBQ. You won't be disappointed.

    The staff is very friendly, the food on the other hand is not bbq. My brisket sandwich tasted like crockpot pulled pork with a bunch of bbq sauce. The bread used also denigrated in seconds. Worst thing food was cold upon delivery. Some of the worse bbq I've ever tried

    Breaded wings and potato wedges
    Armando V.

    Had the wedges and breaded wings from This bbq truck and let me say nothing about this truck is truly bbq. No bbq ribs? ......really? I'm sorry you can call your self a bbq truck with no bbq ribs available lol Nothing was sizzling from inside the food truck So at this point I was a little hesitant to order but I'm already here so why not. The breaded wings were good portion size but you can taste the oil from the fryer typically means it was time for a change of oil. The bbq sauce was def store bought. The hot sauce was packaged hot sauce. Not impressed thus far. The wedges were decent but how can you get that wrong. I give it one star because after I finished eating the wings my stomach started to turn and felt very nauseas and sick . Plus like I said nothing bbq about the truck unless you like pulled pork. The staff was friendly and good customer service. Will def not recommend and I would say this truck should have management quality control. This truck Should just be called uncle Al's food truck.

    Truffle Mac and cheese
    Jenny R.

    Went to the food street cinema during the holiday event and uncle Al's BBQ was there and I decide to get the truffle Mac and cheese and the mother clucker wings. The wings were tasty enough but wasn't anything special. The mac and cheese was disappointing, it was like having a very creamy version of Kraft Mac and cheese with truffle oil mixed into it and it was extremely too salty for my taste. Unfortunately, nothing made my palate or my tummy dance.

    Excellent all across the board. Me and my wife were looking to get out of the house on a Friday night, but wanted to keep things fairly casual. We remembered that the Grub Fest Food Trucks were going on Friday nights in Granada Hills, so we decided to make a trip down here. They had some excellent trucks out this round, and this was one of them. What I can say right off the bat is their attention to detail and the quality of their ingredients is too notch. I ordered the pork sliders and the baked beans. When picking up my order, they were nice enough to give me a order of the truffle mac and cheese on the house! Nice touch! I really enjoyed my sliders. Definitely packed with flavor. The baked beans were the standout dish for me; great texture, taste, and really filling. I liked the flavor of the mac & cheese, but it was definitely more on the creamier side. Overall, I was pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoyed the food tonight! Great food and I absolutely recommend them.

    So normally I like to post food pictures with my reviews but this place was sooooo good and I was so hungry that I gobbled up my brisket tacos and totally forgot about my Yelp review! I'll have to repost pix when I eat from this truck again! The meat was tender and perfectly seasoned. The chipotle sauce and some other sauce was amazing and mixed so well with the flour tortillas and queso fresco. I could have easily eaten 5 of these tacos but thank God the order comes with just 3 and they are a good size. The hubster ordered the spiced wedges and big bad wolf sandwich which is the brisket sandwich. He really liked it and it looked so good I'll have to order it for myself next time. Great portion of fries that the hubster didn't even complain about me stealing some It took a little while to get our order but it was busy and so totally worth the wait! I am so glad my community brought them over for our food truck night event! Can't wait to try other stuff from the menu soon!

    Bread and cheese aka sober up meal, and three piggies in a blanket with potato salad.

    i cannot express my opinion of this amazing place enough. not only is it amazing food, but i was a little tispy, and i ask these guys for bread. said id pay extra. they said forget that we got you. gave me free bread and cheese at the cowboy festival. i tried to tip them and they said forget that we do this because we love this.

    Truck

    LEGITIMATELY IF I COULD GIVE 100 stars i would. Always great service, super caring and respectful. The food is amazing, a lot of the flavors and orders offered are unique and original. Uncle also has its own vibe, unmatched by any other food trucks ive been to. Honestly if you haven't tried it youre missing out and if you have im sure you want more

    BIG BAD WOLF WAS TASTY !!!!!

    I finally got to try the Great White Hut. I mean I came upon it by accident. I didn't realize it…read morewould be so tiny! I don't know what I was expecting but it is amazing that they can serve up such food in a small place. I've seen videos and these guys get a lot of credit for working in a such a small place. The day I went my wife said "99 cent tacos on Tuesday". I said, too bad it's not Tuesday. She is IT IS! HAHA ok, well, now I know what I want. I went to the window and asked if it was true, 99 cent tacos, she said yes! Well $3 later, I had my two tacos. Was it any good? Well, yeah! It was! Look, it wasn't the best tacos in the world or the best I have tried but it was really good and if I had the time, I'd get a beer and sit down and eat these good tacos and then they might be some of the best! Unfortunately I had to do other things so I just enjoyed these two tacos and I got the spicy versions and let me tell you, the kick from the spice was awesome!!!! I love the little Great White Hut!

The good: Although small, the way this burger is constructed makes sense. Good, fresh ingredients with a nice crunch and somewhat decent hamburger patty. The price is right. $6 for a single. A square deal in today's insane landscape. The bad: the bun sucks. Like most burgers out there, the bun lacks in freshness and ingredients. Bake your own buns. Also, the sauce can be annoying. Yet, the pickles are thick and good. I would come again if in the area.

I drove for a few seconds around the corner and parked on the street and walked over to the Verdugo Dairy lot which is where the Nickos Sandwich Truck is located. The truck is so cute and small and fits perfectly in the lot without taking up too much space. I looked at the menu and honestly all the sandwiches looked so good that it was hard to just choose one, but I wanted breakfast so I went with the Plain Breakfast Sandwich. I was asked how I want my egg cooked and I chose sunny side up. Options for cheese were swiss or provolone and I couldn't decide and I was able to get a slice of both on my sandwich! I also ordered a bread pudding on the side. After ordering I was given a little buzzer that would go off when my food is ready. I hung out and didn't wait too long until my buzzer went off and it was a nice loud beeping that would be easy to hear if I had left it in my pocket. After the food is ready then you pay. When I went back to my car and I couldn't help myself I ripped open the bag and I was in awe of my sandwich. Look at my photos, do you see that melty stretch of cheese that is so perfect??????????? The brioche bun is soft and fluffy, the egg seasoned with salt and pepper perfectly and cooked to perfection, and the cheese is stretchy and gooey and so delicious. Was I licking the wrapper when I was done? Maybe! If I could give more than 5 stars for my sandwich I would! I love me a banana pudding and I thought I was going to wait to eat it at home, however I could not control myself I popped it open and I gobbled it down. So creamy and delicious with just the right amount of crumbled nilla wafers. I am not in Glendale too often, but you can bet that when I am, I'll be stopping by again!
