Not very flavorful, got the bibimbap with chicken. The chicken was kinda bland and had some not so tasty sauce sprinkled over it. For $14, was really underwhelming. Lots of better options around the city. The sauce for the salad was not great either. Tasted like something I would get from a grocery store sweet and sour. The quantity was enough though so at least you'll be full :) read more

Vegetarian and tofu salad - $11, portion size was good enough. Salad was warm and taste was alright, but got cold very quickly in my two-minute walk back to the office. Service was nice, and the food was made very quickly (less than 5 minutes). Next time order: more mushrooms, japchae. read more

Hiyaaa!? I think, HiNoOoOo!!! With its tag-line, "Serving kicking flavors...", I expected more from this Asian-Fusion (Vietnamese & Korean) truck especially when they claim to have "bold and balanced" flavors. Just like a majority of the Asian Fusion trucks out there, they've dumb-downed their flavors in order to appeal to the masses. On its first debut at Off The Grid - UN Plaza today, I wafted through the scents emitting from the Arki Truck (Fried Chicken & Donuts) as I silently cursed my lo-carb diet. #$%^& ^$@#&% What drew me to Hiyaaa! was its menu. II liked that they give you the option to have your meal one of the following ways: 1) ON A ROLL ($7-$9): http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/8OjAOE0ygNiOiGn1H71oaw?select=n3OfbxciZjDr1EO7RGKvCA 2) OVER RICE ($9): http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/8OjAOE0ygNiOiGn1H71oaw?select=XgxE8nVp20UbHfAQmqoF8g 3) IN A SALAD ($9): http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/8OjAOE0ygNiOiGn1H71oaw?select=ZLv0r9Q0PHUDeOx7GBiw3Q You can also do a Combo which is a mini-version of all three for $9. I opted for their Daily Special: Ginger Infused Pork Belly (In a Salad - $9) http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/8OjAOE0ygNiOiGn1H71oaw?select=d17Kj3Rt_zQofppEF54byg The two seared slices of pork belly had a high ratio of lean meat to fat which I appreciated but the bland pork belly had ZERO ginger essence and it was very dry especially around the edges. With a high fat content like pork belly, the fat should keep the lean meat succulent but the lean meat had the texture of pork jerky. One of the quintessential and most enjoyable parts of the pork belly is the crispy rind (skin). Not that I would have eaten it (ok, maybe just a nibble) but there was none. The pork belly was placed alongside fresh mixed greens and pickled carrot and daikon which lacked the familiar acidic punch that I'm used to. Sadly, there was nothing "bold" nor "balanced" about this salad. Perhaps, I should have just got the Fried Chicken and Donuts from the Arki Truck and Hiyaaa'd it at the gym tomorrow morning. *looks down at expanding muffin top* Ummm, ok maybe not... OTHER NOTES: *Friendly service (hence the 3rd star) *Vegetarian options available *CASH ONLY read more

TERRIBLE SERVICE!!! Can't expect much from a food truck. They were posted at the TruckStop location in FiDi. It's later in the afternoon, the lunch crowd is long gone. I ordered a SIMPLE SIDE (spice tofu bites) and it really took me 10 minutes to get PLUS they were pumping out other people's orders of full meals that ordered AFTER ME. That really bothered me. 1) *see picture* Tofu Bites. Wasn't worth the $5.50, really worth $2. Taste, the tofu is mushy and the hot sauce is basically siracha. 2) What took so long to prepare it? I was #27, they served #28, #29, and #30 all who ordered full meals and ordered after me 3) what kind of fusion is this? korean, vietnamese, chinese.... with none of the above nationalities in the truck 4) service was slow Hate me for my review, it is what it is. Sorry. Until the next review.... read more

Hiyaaa! - Spicy Tofu Bites - I don't recommend - Food Trucks Near Me

Another truck I tried at the San Mateo Night Market. I didn't have much in the way of expectations for this truck as I had only heard of the name and not of what they serve so with that in mind my husband and I went with our 'safe' option of ordering Curried Chicken (http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/8OjAOE0ygNiOiGn1H71oaw?select=vhpcljx4UyKVg12gd_DkgA#oj0r0PZi6C4eaoSdN6oZkw) $9. Portion size was decent and I liked the fact that it came with a serving of salad too. The shredded Chicken was somewhat of a surprise to me, mainly because I'm used to having curry with big chunks of Chicken but I really enjoyed the different texture and it made it a lot easier to eat too which at a food truck event is a big plus. Sauce was tasty, not too spicy but the rice was a bit sticky. 3.5 rounded up to a 4. read more

Hiyaaa! - Curry Chicken - Food Trucks Near Me

I was in the mood to try a different food truck at Truck Stop on 1st & Mission, so I gave the comic-book themed truck a try. Hiyaa serves up their take on Asian fusion in somewhat of a Chipotle format menu, in that you... 1. Choose a protein: Bulkogi, Spicy Pork, Lemon Grass Chicken, Curry Chicken, or a Vegetarian option. 2. Choose the form: Sandwich, Salad, Rice Bowl, or with Fries All cost ~$8-10. I had the Bulkogi in a Roll. It was quite tasty, but there is room for a little improvement. The shredded pickled carrots and cucumber slices were nice and spicy, but were topped off a little haphazardly and didn't sit too nicely in the sandwich. The romaine lettuce was unecessary. Also, the baguette was rather chewy. The marinated bulgogi beef tasted okay, but it was a little tough, or maybe it just seemed that way because of the texture of the bread. On the plus side, it was a large sandwich, so it was pretty filling. Maybe I'll try it again another time. I'm interested in the rice options. Hot marinated beef over steaming rice sounds good. read more

Hiyaaa! - stuffed bulgogi roll - Food Trucks Near Me

Decent food truck to consider for lunch but Hiyaaa! follows the predictable modular menu of meat option in a rice bowl, salad, or sandwich form factor. The meat options in the case of Hiyaaa! are a combination of Vietnamese, Korean, and Chinese. I had a fried chicken rice bowl and it was decent. I liked the textured of the fried chicken but thought the meat was a little dry and under seasoned. But all up when combined with the sauce and the salad, it was a perfectly fine lunch albeit slightly unmemorable. I've heard the Bulgogi beef is pretty decent though. In the vast SF food truck scene, Hiyaaa! isn't a standout but does a decent job at delivering food that carries well as you chow down on the go. read more

I ordered the lemongrass chicken in a salad. It's okay. The chicken was really hard to chew and pretty dry even though it was cubed and smothered in sauce. The salad was normal with a few pickled veggies to give it some flavor. On my last visit, I had the curry chicken, and it, too was dry (while drenched in curry). I like to give my restaurants multiple visits before making a review. So sad. The name and truck look really cool, but just could not perform :( read more

Tried the sampler combo at Off The Grid. The beef bun was good, especially die to some type of spicy mayo they include. The curry chicken was dry and very boring. Didn't help that it was served over cold rice. The salad was good but the meat on top was dripping with oil. All in all, I'd go with the beef sandwich. read more

Hiyaaa! - Sampler of beef mini roll, curry chicken over white rice, and sweet bulkogi salad with a hint of spice. - Food Trucks Near Me

A Chiptole-esqe take on Asian cuisine with your choice of protein (bulkogi, spicy pork, lemongrass chicken, tofu) over your choice of non-protein (sandwich, rice, salad, fries). Tons of flavor packed into each protein option which helps a little go a long way (...though their portions are not little, actually quite reasonable). Spicy Fried Chicken over Fries: If you're gonna go unhealthy, then go all the way! Fried chicken on top of fried potatoes; I felt the diabetus creeping in as I ate this. But so tasty. The chicken chunks are super crunchy, like I left a few pieces at my desk and came back after 2 hours of meetings and they were still crispy. The sauce is like a fancy General Tso's, which is spicier and tastier than Panda Express. The fries catch a nice coating of glaze that drips below eliminating the need for ketchup. read more

They catered Vietnamese noodle bowls for our company lunch. They were very friendly. They let me have a combo of chicken, pork and tofu. The pork was the Star with kind of a dry satay seasoning. Very umami! Chicken was chicken -- not particularly memorable but very respectable. Tofu was yum, too! With a little fish sauce and the pork, it was finger licking good! read more

I'm grateful that Hiyaaa! came to my workplace because we don't have many options for food around, however I was a bit disappointed with the quality of my meal. I had the beef bulkogi over japchae noodles, which was mediocre at best. At $14, I felt that it was overpriced and the quality of the beef was lacking. The meat was also a bit chewy and greasy. The japchae was ok. I appreciate that you can customize your order (choose a protein, choose a side) and I may give them another try if they come to my neck of the woods again. read more

Hiyaaa! - Beef bulkogi with japchae - Food Trucks Near Me

Hiyaa! is one of the Asian trucks that regularly goes around to the Off the Grid events. I've had it at various occasions, and their forte is the rice bowl, which is a very crowded segment within the food trucks economy. Their protein is generally pretty good - but doesn't really stand out comparing to other places. In fact, if you give me a bowl of Hiyaa! food I wouldn't be able to tell you where it came from. There are better food trucks, and there are worse. This one nest in the middle, where you won't mind getting a bite from when there aren't other choices or they are all too crowded. read more

Hiyaaa! was one of the few food trucks serving dinner to a huge crowd of people during my reunion weekend. It was plagued by a long line and slow service, which wasn't really its fault. That said, I didn't like the truck, and my dislike for it was separate from the surrounding mess. After waiting in a very long line, we were faced with a cashier who was a little bit unfriendly. I was ordering for me and my picky fiance Matt B., and I asked them to give me one order of bulgogi without vegetables. The cashier said they couldn't sell me the plate without the vegetables, so I just ordered food for myself. At first I thought the bulgogi meat was mixed with vegetables, but it turned out that the plate was made up of rice, meat, and a side of vegetables to begin with. The vegetables were superfluous and easily removable, which makes me wonder if that policy was just spiteful? Anyway, I ordered a mix of bulgogi and spicy marinated pork with rice and those stupid vegetables. It was fine, just a normal food-court-style meal of Asian meat on rice. The bulgogi was stringy but easy enough to eat, and the spicy pork was pretty decent. I also tried a side of the Korean spicy fried chicken. The chicken came in little popcorn nuggets, and they were very spicy but only somewhat satisfying. The food was okay, but definitely nothing special. I don't really see why it's in a trendy truck instead of in a mall or the downstairs cafeteria of a commercial building. In short, the food was mediocre and the service inexplicably difficult. I'd never wait in line for Hiyaaa! again, and I wouldn't bother going back even if it were very convenient. read more

I was pretty enthusiastic to see Hiyaaa! finally open for business and around my area in SSF. I only had one thing on my mind to try and that was their Bulkogi sandwich which according to their menu contained Beef marinated in korean seasoning, do chua (pickled daikon and carrots), romaine lettuce, mayo, secret sweet and spicy sauce. It costs $7 for regular and $9 if you want it stuffed with double meat. I opted for double meat since I was super hungry for lunch. The sandwich was pretty heavy when I got it so that was a good sign and it was definitely very meaty (http://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=F_5_UNX-wrAFCXuAkBZRDw&select=vhpcljx4UyKVg12gd_DkgA). And the Bulkogi was tasty, plus the Sweet and Spicy Sauce gave it some really good flavor! I'm a little on the fence with their pricing, but I'd say that the double meat option is a little bit of a splurge. You'll definitely get your money's worth with the amount of meat they put when you go for the "Stuffed" option. 3.5 stars rounded up to 4. There aren't too many Bulkogi sandwich places around my area that I can think of other than Seoul On Wheels and Rhea's Deli, but they're both in the city and not in the peninsula, so I applaud them for being peninsula-based. I'll be trying them again soon to try their pork and chicken options. read more

Worst decision of the night! I got some tofu bites and there were about 10 little pieces for $5.50 - seriously?!? The photo is a small container box, and it was barely full. What a waste of money.

A nice, safe, middle of the road option for when you're not feeling too adventurous. Which is slightly ironic considering their marketing. Not that creative or inventive. Certainly not pushing the envelope. Vietnamese banh mi with a mild-mannered twist. Perfectly tasty. But as I'm on Caltrain today, rapidly approaching the new Millbrae "Off the Grid" market, and I see them on the list, I don't really blink. A good choice for white Midwestern in-laws or picky children. Hardcore foodies seek fulfillment elsewhere. read more

They came to SFSU campus and I was curious about them so I decided to give it a try. i got the little combo thing so it was a bit of everything. The curry was completely BLEH. It literally looked like mushy poo when I saw it, and I'm not over exaggerating. The rice under that was completely soggy and mush. i didn't think that anyone can mess up on rice. The chicken over the salad was okay, but nothing special. I did like the little mini sandwich with the bulgogi though. I might've left happier if i had just left with a single sandwich. for $9 for this pile of mess, no thanks. Never coming back to this food truck ever again. read more

Food trucks come around my workplace fairly often now so it's nice to be able to have some options when it comes to lunch. When Hiyaaa! was parked right outside my office, I decided to give it a try. I ordered the bulgogi sandwich, which was pretty tasty. It was basically a banh mi but with marinated korean style beef. I have to admit, I enjoyed the combination of the meat and veggies since the meat was flavorful and not too dry. Wait time was minimal too, which is much appreciated when you're ravenous. A solid contender for lunch if you're looking for something tasty and fast. read more

4 stars for their sandwich, 2-3 stars for the other items. I got to try Hiyaaa! at the Wednesday food truck event at the Hiller Aviation Museum. Since we got to Hiller fairly early (around 11:30am), there were still spaces available in the parking lot, and the lines weren't that long yet. My coworkers and I got to order right away, and we got: -Spicy Pork On a Roll (Do Chua Slaw [Pickled Daikon/Carrots, Lettuce, Cucumber], Jalapeno, Mayo, $7, http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/hiyaaa-south-san-francisco?select=IDQuLwQD8nrbXWBougYIzQ#aNWyJmp0c8AjRnRm9B93Og): Yum- I really enjoyed the spicy pork, mayo, and the French baguette. However, I thought the romaine lettuce was weird in here, and will tell them to leave it off next time if I order this again. The do chua slaw was ok, but needed a bit more tanginess. Although on the pricey side, this is one of the better versions of "banh mi" I've had in a while. It was also a huge portion, and I would've been full eating half- the whole sandwich was way too much. Highly recommended! -Spicy Fried Chicken Bites ($6?, http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/hiyaaa-south-san-francisco?select=IDQuLwQD8nrbXWBougYIzQ#IDQuLwQD8nrbXWBougYIzQ): Flavorful, but overcooked and on the dry side. Also, some pieces were just batter. If they made the chicken pieces bigger and cooked it better, I would get them again for the sauce. As is, I wouldn't order again. -Garlic Fries ($4, http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/hiyaaa-south-san-francisco?select=IDQuLwQD8nrbXWBougYIzQ#xecvcrlOqjUu8hffXqpTQw): Disappointing. The fries were limp and soggy when we had them, and it tasted like they didn't fry them at a high enough temperature or long enough. They were also bland tasting- Skip! Our food came out fairly quickly (5-10 minutes), and the staff were friendly and efficient. One complaint is that I wish they had little containers out so that you could squeeze your own sriracha instead of having to ask them. Overall, I enjoyed my spicy pork sandwich, but not the other two items I tried. I'm interested in coming back to try the bulkogi roll at some point, and also to get another spicy pork sandwich- don't waste your money on the other items! read more

Waited in their extremely long line at the Moveable Feast San Mateo event this past Friday to give this new truck a try. Concept is simple. Choose your meat: Bulgogi, Spicy Pork, Spicy Chicken, Lemongrass Chicken, Curry Chicken, etc. And then choose how you would like your meat: on a roll ($7 for regular, $9 for stuffed), over rice ($9), or in a salad ($9). Ordered the bulgogi on a roll, which was basically a bánh mì, as the meat with stuffed in a baguette accompanied with pickled carrots. They were also selling "haute pops." 2 for $3. They had three flavors to choose from: Mandarin Orange Lycee, Lemonade Thai Basil, Spicy Mango. Did I really purchase 1-inch cubes of ice for $1.50 each? Oh yes. Interesting flavors, albeit extremely overpriced for what they were. The sandwich was indeed good. Flavorful bulgogi and cooked nicely. Special? No. Worth the 2 hour wait? Definitely not. But I'll give them the benefit that they are just starting out and is a work in progress. And I can understand that they were completely overwhelmed by the turnout at the event. read more

3.5 stars to Hiyaaa. As someone who's down to try a little of everything, I decided to order the sampler (mini banh mi + curry chicken and rice + pork and salad). Hiyaa delivered well in a couple of ways, but it also has some room for improvement. Overall, it's a truck I'll recommend but won't seek out among other trucks just yet. The mini banh mi was the best of the trio. It was filled with a tender marinated bulgogi and came in a crispy-on-the-outside, soft-on-the-inside baguette. The meat stood out from the veggies and was enhanced by a mayo-like spread (just the right amount, too). This makes me believe their regular-sized sandys are at least 4-star. The curry chicken and rice was flavorful but left me wanting more. I like how Hiyaaa went with a shredded chicken, and the curry sauce, though not knockout-good, paired well with the other ingredients. The rice was well prepared too (good consistency and was clearly cooked and not just boiled). But the downside was that there wasn't much beyond a few bites of chicken except rice (with little sauce left over). Then there was the pork and salad. I loved the tender sweetness of the pork and, once I got deep into the salad, I could taste all of the ingredients coming together. But the meat aside, it was something one could put together at home. So all in all, you have some very quality meats but there's not enough in the main dishes that separates this truck from the other Asian mobile eateries. I definitely admire Hiyaaa for putting all of these sampler creations together for a reasonable price ($9). I think if they can add a little more creativity to their main dishes, they will end up with some distinguished eats. Kudos to their speedy service, too. I'd really like to try their salt n' pepper fries, too. read more

First time trying this truck. I tried the Lemongrass Chicken roll with the Salt & Pepper fries. The roll: Soft bread Juicy meat - The chicken was tender and flavorful and not a sparse amount. The veggies were fresh and there were a lot of them. The fries: Quite an amount. Crispy and not soggy like other places. The flavor reminds me of the salt&pepper pork chops from a Chinese restaurant. The jalapenos were fresh and added the perfect amount of kick. I don't remember the exact price but it was $15 or under. I would try something else next time to round out and update the review. read more

Got to try this place instead of the ramen at The Ramen Festival. It's a cool concept. It's basically a mix of Chinese, Korean, and Vietnamese food. You pick the type of meat you want, and the meat is cooked in one of these styles like lemon grass chicken, or spicy pork. Then you choose how you want it, like in a banh mi, over white rice or in bimbibop style. I got a spicy pork banh mi, and it was delicious. It's not any thing different from any other banh mi, but it tasted great. I want to give this place 3 stars, but my boyfriend and I both got tummy aches after eating the food here. read more

Hiyaaa! serves up delicious Asian-fusion grub out of a food truck. You pick a protein (lemongrass chicken, bulkogi, spicy pork, lemongrass mushrooms) and then pick a bed for it (rice, roll, fries, salad). During our visit, we tried Bulkogi on a Stuffed Roll. Paying the extra $2 for double meat was definitely worth it because the meat was tender, juicy, and flavorful. The Korean Seasoning on the sandwich was great, although I felt it overpowered the meat's flavor. My last bite was just the roll with some meat, and it was absolutely great because I was able to really taste just how awesome the beef was. The Salt and Pepper Fried Chicken Bites were crispy and seasoned well, but could have been slightly better with some sauce. I'm not sure if they had sauce hidden in their truck, but we didn't bother to go ask because the chicken bites were addictive even in our sauceless situation. They take credit cards with a Square reader, but they did one thing -- that no other Off the Grid vendors did -- that irked me. Every other truck there took your card, swiped it, selected 0% for the tip, and then returned your card. When the lady at Hiyaaa! taking my order handed me her iPad displaying options for tips, I was confused. Why ask me to pay 20% gratuity for a takeout order -- at a food truck? While waiting for our food, I saw people split between 0% and the topmost option: 15%. Customers' impulse decisions might earn them a bit more money, but it just seemed really shady that they were the only ones at Off the Grid doing this. read more

I was pretty impressed with the food I got today. I ordered the bulgogi bahn mi and the salt and pepper fries. The sandwich was a large portion and Im a big dood. Especially in SF where everyone skimps on proteins. The fries were the show today man its like eating those salt and pepper chicken wings but french fries. The aroma of the bag was a pungent garlic bomb of flavor. Soon the coworkers wanted to try the fries and everyone was impressed with them. I see the digs people have on the place. Yes its not the most creative thing ever. But in a town where affordable lunches are disappearing this truck hit the spot. I'm full and had a solid lunch. Some of these trucks try too hard and overengineer things or give u tiny portions and im hungry an hour later. *note affordable as in if you share the fries with someone else. sandwich and half fries does the trick. read more

At the J Pop Summit were a small sampling of food trucks and I chose this one not knowing much about them. Pleasantly surprised. Got the bulgogi on French fries and a Thai iced tea. My order came as a nice pile of bulgogi and shredded lettuce, cucumber and carrots atop crispy shoestring fries. There was a refreshing sweet sauce that complemented the bulgogi. The beef itself had good flavor but was mild rather than spicy. The fries remained crispy despite being buried under the meat. Delicious stuff! I'd definitely try this truck again. read more

HiYaaa! must be the laughter you hear from the owners of this truck when you walk away with their food. My dude told me he didn't like the vibe from this truck..and I shrugged him off and stood there, anxious to try the deep fried tofu nuggets. When I saw them..I was so disappointed. And when I tasted them, I was saddened by the flavor and texture. They tasted like deep-fried, tasteless marshmallows. Probably one of the grossest food items I've ever frivolously plopped into my mouth. The garlic fries were the only thing that saved me from that hot nugget of mush. Mango Lemonade was pretty much mango puree stuck at the bottom of my cup with basic lemonade floating on top. Could not get it to blend for the life of me. All in all..it sucked. I won't be hunting this truck down ever. read more

This truck serves up a big 'ol fat banh mi! I checked them out at Truck Stop last week & now I'm a fan. They serve Korean/Vietnamese sandwiches, rice plates, & salads. They were out of the special of the day, pork belly, by the time I got there, but no big loss. I had the lemongrass chicken. They had also just run out of rice but luckily I was there for a sandwich. The sandwich comes with the usual banh mi fare like pickled daikon & carrots, cucumber, cilantro, & jalapeno. I ordered it spicy, according to their sign they offer a house made sauce to add a little kick. Yes, please! It turned out that the sauce wasn't terribly spicy, but it sure tasted good. It was kind of like a green tomatillo salsa. Not sure what was in it, but it added some good flavor to my sammie. I only waited a few minutes to place my order & my sandwich was ready less than 10 minutes later. Efficient! read more

Had the stuffed pork bahn mi - I'll admit, I am a sucker for Bahn Mi, but this one was good. The bread was soft enough that I could eat it without cutting up my mouth and the meat was tasty. They had jalapenos, but didn't overdo it. They put in just enough where I got the zing every bite, but it didn't burn my mouth. I got there at 11:30 so they weren't packed yet and turned out my order quick. read more

Not too crazy about their food. I've had it a few times when they came to my work. I've tried the Lemon Grass Chicken over rice, in a salad, Spicy Pork over salad, and their Spicy Fried Chicken Bites. The Lemon Grass Chicken usually looks like a bunch of chicken scraps that it doesn't look very appealing. It doesn't seem like they use quality ingredients. Instead of it being a grilled chicken, it's more like sautéed chicken. All their side dishes are fried: fries, garlic fries, fried chicken bites, fried tofu bites. I wish they would provide some healthier options. read more

Made their debut at Edgewood and caught the Bulgogi on a roll. Turns out it's a meld of a Vietnamese Banh Mi with Korean beef as the meat.
