    Kadhai paneer with daal, raita, rice, roti :)
    Nandita B.

    Munch India parks their food truck every Tuesday near my workplace in Emeryville. I try to go eat there whenever possible as the food is high quality, really tasty, and satisfying. On the menu you will usually find 3 types of veg entrees, and 3 types of non-veg (1 chicken, 1 fish, 1 lamb) entrees. Each entree comes with rice (veggie pulav), 1 chapati(so glad they do chapati and not naan), daal, and raita. You can also do a combo plate that allows you to try all the veg/ non veg entrees. So far I have not been disappointed by anything I have ordered. The veg entrees are usually ~11-12$ and the non veg can range from ~12-18$ (can be a bit pricy if you choose the lamb/ fish). Oh and be ready to wait for 10-15 mins for your food to be ready (so it's guaranteed to be freshly prepared). Also - the dishes can be a bit oily (my only real complaint). But overall - love it!

    Chicken Masala, Kadai Paneer, Chana Masala Combo
    Adam B.

    An Indian food truck that serves regular old Indian food, not a Paneer Burrito or Chicken Tikka Masala Fries or anything crazy like that. The combos are great for someone who wants a little variety at lunch. Better than most brick-and-mortar Indian joints downtown, though Amber India is still king. Chicken Masala: Tasty chicken morsels in a creamy masala. Great for soaking up in roti and rice. The largest portion in the non-veg combo. Kadai Paneer: Super tasty dense cheese curds. A bit salty. A few thin tangy veggies were in the mix (peppers and onions?). About half the size as the chicken portion. Chana Masala: Standard chole, but with some nice yogurt and tamarind sauces on top. Tastes a bit like a chaat, except with just chickpeas. About half the size as the chicken portion. Dal: A bit bland, but that's what dal is. Just the right portion to hearty up some rice. Roti: Kinda small-ish. Used it up on the chicken before I finished that portion. Tasty though.

    Lamb kabob extra spicy
    Ryan S.

    Best food truck AND best Indian food around Emeryville (when they are here). I was treated to a juicy, tender lamb kabob, extra spicy, along with lentils, rice, yogurt, and roti...all of the ingredients were fresh, perfectly prepared, and simply the best. The customer service was beyond 5 stars. I would give this 10 stars if I could! Passionate and friendly people in this truck. They found themselves a regular right here!!!

    Chicken Tangdi Kabab
    Saumil M.

    Love this food truck! I like the Chicken Tangdi Kabab, Lamb Kebab and the Murgh Dahi Wala. These dishes come with rice (pulao), roti, yogurt, black dal Wait can be a little long (10-15 mins) but is absolutely worth it! Keep up with their locations on their twitter account!

    veg/non-veg combo with baigan masala, channa, dal, and chicken kabob. Comes in a thali with a roti and rice. Really good.

    Stumbled on this place for lunch the other day and was pleasantly surprised! I got a veg/non veg combo which came with chicken kebab, baigan (eggplant) masala, channa (garbanzo beans), dal (lentils) and some amazing rice. What I REALLY liked about this place is the fact that it was a complete meal, served on a thali-like compostable dish WITH a Roti!! there's something you don't regularly see at indian food trucks.... It felt like a home cooked meal almost as opposed to quick food. Everything tasted great and everyone at the office keep asking me repeatedly where I had gotten my food from. I had never seen this truck in the FiDi before. I think they are definitely onto something and I am officially following on twitter so I can know when they are around. My ONLY complaint is I thought it was a bit on the pricier side (~$16), but you do pay for what you get. Delicious indian food that goes beyond your standard chicken tikka masala, which everyone else is already doing. Basically if you want to feel like your at a sit down indian restaurant but with all the benefits that come from going to a food truck, you should go here. Also, they take card, unlike some of the other trucks around that will remain nameless.

    Goat Biryani
    Mighty M.

    This is a hit food truck from our company location/building. Always gets a long line for the days it comes. Food is not cheap but one of the tastiest lunch I get every week. They used some very good spice mixes that makes you craved more. The Kabobs are rubbed generously and comes very tasty and juicy every time. The biryani is also good and on the goat curry is delicious when they offer it as a daily special. Expensive for lunch but very tasty and they use organic ingredients. If you don't buy they will still be sold out at least from our location as they always gets one of the longest lines among food trucks in our area. My coworker says that the Veggie options are also very good and very tasty.

    Goat curry!

    I live a couple blocks away and I now that I've finally tried Chave, I can't believe how many times…read moreI walked by and mentally dismissed the place since it always looks empty. I now realize it's a major local hangout spot when there's a soccer game going on, but also their tacos are great! They have excellent soft corn tortillas. We asked for "mild" but they were still quite spicy (not overwhelmingly so). * Carne Asada ($3) - 3 stars Good flavor, but quite a bit of fat I had to pick off. * Cochinita Pibil ($3) - 4.5 stars Great flavor, tender meat! * Pastor ($3) - 4 stars Great flavor & crisp. * Sope w/ carnitas ($4) - 2 stars The bottom of the sope was too hard, making it difficult to cut. Meat was too chewy, full of fat. & Quesadilla w/ carnitas ($12) - 3.5 stars Tortillas were soft, filling tasty, except carnitas was too fatty & chewy.

    I got some tacos from a taco stand on Market and Castro at the beginning of this month around 2 in…read morethe morning. The guy charged my debit card for $9.00 and tried to say it didnt go through and i had to pay cash for my tacos., which by the way were like way too spicy and didnt look anything like the tacos they made for a couple that were before me. When I got home I looked at my online banking and there it is, they charged my card and yes it went through...
