    Crispy taquitos.
    Jeana M.

    I lived by this taco truck for the longest time and finally I got to try it! We got the crispy taquitos and tacos, chicken, cabaza, lengua( tongue) and al pastor. It smelt soooo good on the drive home. I couldn't barely wait to eat it. So everything was amazing. The owner was so super nice. Love that about small places. The tacos were very good, the chicken was a tad dry, but oh well. The al pastor had a sweet taste to it but it was so good. The cabaza (head) was soooo tender and flavorful. Oh my gosh. And the beef tongue was amazing also. So much flavor. The crispy taquitos were not very good. The taquitos itself was good, but the sauce they out on top had a fishy smell and taste to it. It was very off putting. Overall I will try there other stuff. Then update my review. The bill was great $26 for 14 tacos and 2 taquitos.

    All I can say is I've been wanting to try this truck for two years! Finally went out when they were there. FOR LESS THEN 20.00 I got four tacos, two talqudia rice and beans for two plus a chicken qasadilla. I am so going back and hey even have order ahead of time so it's ready when you get there!!

    It was the perfect evening for Food Truck Friday. Tonite's review is all about Rick's Pizza…read more The gal who took my order was absolutely lovely and the pizza was fresh and piping hot! Can you believe I got two slices for $8.50 what a deal! Not many items at food truck Friday under $10 bucks, so I think I scored big time! I love enjoying the Idlewild park beauty with the Truckee River run through the park! It's so fun to see all ages out on a Friday night! It's one of my favorite things to do in the summer! Next time, you don't know what to do, grab your lawn chair, a cold drink and come and experience one of many food truck choices! There is something for everyone!!!

    I'm from out of town but come up to Reno often; and this was the first time I had the opportunity…read moreto check out Food Truck Fridays. First off, I have to admit I completely underestimated the magnitude of this event as Idlewild Park was pretty poppin and parking was nearly impossible. After we finally found a spot to park, we grabbed out chairs and headed to the Park. After picking our spots by the duck pond, we walked around a bit to survey the offerings. We tried three different trucks and sampled some pretty delicious bites. Some of the lines were a long wait and some were moving along pretty fine. But there's pretty much something for everyone. I would definitely hit this up again, but probably try to arrive earlier to plan better parking. It was a bit of a challenge navigating this for the first time, but at least I know what to expect now. I really wish my hometown had something like this. May try it again later this summer.

    I'm not sure what it is about Hawaiian food lately, but the last few times I came into Reno, my…read morefirst spot is to try a new one. I'm sad Aloha Shack closed, used to be a big fan. Maybe them closing is the reason, who knows. Anyways so far all 3 places have been better than the ones I go to in the bay area, at least on the peninsula. There is some good ones, but not exactly quick and easy as Hawaiian bbq should be. Walked in at lunch time. Decent amount of people there around that time. I liked that they had outdoor benches, cool looking inside with the food truck decor and window to look into the kitchen. Staff greeted me quickly and was friendly. I'm far from a picky eater and when trying new places, i like to let the staff steer the ship. They most likely have tried the whole menu, have their favorites, and if I don't like it, it's probably not worth going back to try anything else. Good looking plate. First thing I noticed eating it, this felt a lot cleaner than most Hawaiian BBQ places. It's not caked in sauce or wasn't swimming on a marinade for days. It was seasoned nicely, was tender, and not going to be a sodium bomb. I usually see most places give more white rice (2 scoops), but probably a good thing they didn't, because I would have ate it and been overly stuffed. Mac salad was balanced, light, nice palette cleanser. That said, Mac salad on its own isn't something that would be able to stand alone. Better than L&L, but that isn't saying much. Back to the service. They came to check on me, see how I was enjoying the food, and also recommended I try the hot sauce thets made in house. That was a nice change from the siracha that is everywhere. Not very spicy, but has a kick and paired well with the plate. I'll be back, but I'm sure I'll try something new. Most likely the tacos. I was tempted to get it this trip, but knew it would put me into a food coma.

    My wife and daughter contacted Joe at Kenji's and spoke to him in regard to providing his catering…read moreservice for our son's Celebration of Life reception. Joe was wonderful and agreed to take on the task of providing the food for 60-80 friends and family members. I had a good friend pick up 7 large trays of food which included BBQ chicken, rice, spam fried rice, Mac salad, green salad mix (with wontons and dressing on the side) and potstickers. The food was ready on time and was able to be set up right before the reception began. The food was amazing and several attendees had never heard of or had Kenji's. The spam fried rice was the big hit and almost all of it was eaten. Several attendees were impressed with the quality and flavor of the food. Thanks to Kenji's the reception was very good given the circumstances, it definitely turned out better than the port of subs we had discussed prior to talking to Joe.
