I had mine to go because I was taking it back to my office so there really isn't any ambiance to speak of. I deducted a star because the prices always surprise me. It's a food truck with no brick and mortar but the prices are what you would see at a restaurant. It's good food and I know food prices have gone up but if there's no restaurant then I shouldn't pay restaurant prices. That's the only downside.

I swear the Bulgogi Fries were screaming my name, though. Yoyo's Hotdog - Yoyo--YO. This thing slaps. I definitely craved a Coke or a beer while eating this because that salt kicks your taste buds' *ss. The caramelized onions paired with the crunchy onions were a double whammy that could topple a few hot dog title holders. The real winner, though, was the sauce--definitely something Asian-inspired. But hey, I'm running on five hours of sleep, and that's the best my smooth brain could come up with to describe the experience. Thanks for coming to my TED Talk.

I got their famous hotdog with spicy mayo, french onion, sautéed onions, and hot sauce. (That's how it comes standard) don't get me wrong it's definitely a lot going on from the flavors and the messiness of the dog, but the flavors balance out very well and the all beef hot dog is delicious. There's no spice from the mayo or hot sauce so if you don't like spice you'll be fine. I also tried their bulgogi fries which came with bulgogi meat, jalepenos, cheese and cilantro. My first reaction was it was delicious but it wouldn't be something I would get again, but after I kept eating it I realized this is actually really good and now when I go back I'll definitely try it again. Overall I definitely recommend this place to visitors or even locals

The menu that day was limited to a few items. I went with the Korean BBQ Beef Poboy. It also came with a side of fries. The poboy included toasted bread stuffed with Korean BBQ beef on top of a layer of coleslaw. All of which were drizzled in what seemed to be spicy mayo. The fries were thick and seasoned nicely. A good amount of beef on a well toasted bread and the coleslaw was the perfect balance to the poboy. The overall portion was quite big for me to finish. The food came out pretty fast although I was the first one in line. The guy who took my order and also made the food was friendly. Overall, a quick and easy lunch.

Despite being decently busy with a steady line of people ordering, we got the Brazilian Limeade immediately and the Gaucho Fries within five minutes of ordering.

The weather was cool but it could get a little warm in the sun, making the limeade very refreshing. It was very mellow, not too sweet, and not too tart. The Gaucho Fries were exactly what we wanted, some very tasty loaded fries with a Brazilian twist.

There was a constant trickle of customers but I'm not sure there was enough peeps to warrant a 20 min wait for grub. The guy seemed to be doing it solo. I'd try again, but would amend my order.

There were a couple of saving graces...,namely the fataya (the filling was a bit salty...but still good) and the shawarma was okay. I'll love to see them win. They just need to turn the flavor up and work on their cooking/wait time. Also, it's rather expensive for what you get. A disappointment to say the least

If you're craving bold, authentic flavors Indian and Mexican food, check out the Marcos Spice food truck located at the corner of Houston Avenue and Dart Street. This spot offers an incredible array of dishes packed with a lot of flavor and spices that taste truly homemade. The colorful presentation of their plates adds to the experience, and everything feels authentically Indian. I highly recommend their Chicken Tandoori -- it's perfectly seasoned, tender, and bursting with the right blend of spices. If you're in the area, this food truck is a must-try for Indian food lovers! read more

The food was amazing and Lee is awesome! Everything we ordered was so good. Lee discovered quickly that I don't eat meat, and he offered to make something special for me.. I don't remember the name of it, but it was sooo good!! He threw in a couple extra things for us (the chicken fries and veggie samosas) and they were also incredible. It's always nice to find great food with incredibly kind service. We will definitely be back. read more

Yummm. The chat was very tasty, perfectly spicy and it came with a little raitha, probably to help the stomach digest, not sure. The lassi was really good too. I believe in the mornings they have various South Indian breakfast items, now... thats rare. Since it the tunnels, the timings are like 7 am to 3 pm, and parking is a challenge in downtown as we all know. But still, would like to come back to treat ourselves with the breakfast . Its a great Indian place to try out if you work in Houston downtown. The prices are not street, but that's expected.

Maybe that's how shawarma is traditionally supposed to taste, but the cumin was a little too strong for my personal preference. The meat itself was good, but the seasoning just wasn't quite my thing. That said, I'm always willing to give a local spot a second chance, especially when the service is this good. I'd definitely consider coming back and trying something else!
