Lychee lemonade
Magda N.

Their burger has such unique flavors and they are delicious. Got the lomo saltado and chimichurri burger. Can't decide which one is better, both are delicious. The flavor slaps. Rosemary garlic fries is very fragrant. You can really smell the rosemary. McD style fries, love it. Salty though. It gets saltier the more we eat it. Maybe a little too aggressive with the salt that night. Lychee lemonade is pretty good. Taste like the stuff from the can at asian supermarket. If you find them in front of ralphs, there is a bench next to their truck. But you may see bird poop on it so you can just eat in the car. Or bring home- they pack it pretty nicely. Tip: eat them fast; the burger is saucy so it will get soggy.

Street Taco Burger and fries
Rudy M.

We tried this place by their truck in Chinatown during an event. The street taco burger intrigued me and it was good and actually tasted like a taco. I wasn't too crazy about their fries because I can't stand the taste of rosemary. Don't let that stop you from trying out the burgers. I will definitely be trying another burger from them in the future.

All American burgers -yum!

Came across this food truck and was intrigued by their modern take on burgers...banh mi burger? Elote burger? And monthly new flavors that you can vote for? All of the flavors were on point. It's like they combined all of the diverse local flavors and crammed them into their burgers. Fries were great too, and don't forget to wash it all down with a refreshing aqua fresca, their flavors are unique as well. Above all, the owners are super friendly and inviting, for that alone I will be back! *terminator voice*

Banh mi burger and fried zucchini
John T.

Background On Visit: Drove by and saw a line forming near the food truck. So I pulled over to see what the fuss was about and got lunch while I was here. Location/Parking: Located across the street from Temple City Park. Parking can be found along Las Tunas Dr. Ambiance: Your typical food truck ambiance. Service: Service was great. Husband and wife team of Khanh (Chef) and Jen were friendly, attentive, and offered great suggestions. Food also came out at a decent time. Burgers Of Choice: Banh Mi Burger: Definitely try out their banh mi burger, which consists of a vietnamese bbq patty, pickled carrots, cucumbers, cilantro, fresh jalapeno, and mayo on a brioche bread. So good and so yum! I was surprised how it tasted just like a banh mi. The patty was tender, juicy, flavorful, and meshed really well with all the fresh ingredients. Kinda wish they can put some pate in the burger. That'll make the burger astro-NOM-NOM-ically more yum! Side Note: Make sure you get plenty of napkins, because the juice from the meat will make your eating experience a bit messy! :) Side Of Choice: Fried Zucchini Fries: The zucchini fries were good, but was surprised to see that they were grilled instead of fried. Parm cheese was also sprinkled on top. It was the icing of the cake for me. :) Truck For Thought: Definitely coming back for more.

Burgers and sides.

This is a food truck so make sure to give them a follow on Instagram (@pattymeetsbun) or Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/PattyMeetsBun/) so you know their location and schedule. If you follow them on social media, you'll see that they are coming up with new creations. I'm excited to see what new items they will add to their menu. The staff are wearing masks at all times. The owners are super friendly. Right before they closed up, one of the owners came out with a trash bag and helped us throw away our trash. My friends and I ordered to share: -Torta burger -Lomo saltado burger--This was my second favorite burger. -Prime rib burger -Banh mi burger--This was my favorite burger. -Zucchini fries--I love zucchini so this was bomb to me. -Rosemary garlic fries--The fries were crispy and flavorful. -Potato salad--My bf's favorite side. I'm not a potato salad person but I like their potato salad better than other potato salads that I've tried. -S'mores eggroll--Although I'm a big fan of s'mores, I wasn't blown away by this s'mores eggroll but my friends really enjoyed it. -Fries with truffle oil (not on the menu)--The owners gave us free fries with truffle oil. They were also very good.

Chilaquiles burger from a trust the chef
A T.

What can be said that hasn't already been said by the glowing reviews my favorite food truck has gotten?! I love eating the food the chef and his team serves. I have never been disappointed with my choice of burgers. I haven't tried all that are on the menu but I've tried a chilaquiles burger, the kbbq burger, the lomo burger, thai beef salad burger, crispy dumpling burger, the prime rib, and my all time favorite -- the Guatemalan burger. UGGGHHH they are all sooooo good!!! Love when they have their summer specials for the buffalo fries and I just love their fries in general. The rosemary fries are pretty unique. The lychee lemonade is a great refresher on a summer day. For the month of July, I highly recommend you try the Guatemalan burger. It sounds odd, but man, it WORKS. The staff are great and friendly, everything about this place is great. Oh! And if there's a line, it moves pretty quickly.

Left: Korean BBQ (bad angle, I know), Right: Torta Burger with rosemary fries
Jeff S.

Found PMB from randomly browsing SGV Eats and on a whim decided to check out their stop in Temple City. I'm super glad I did as the burgers were amazing! I'm always iffy about fusion burgers because they're always so hit-or-miss, but PMB definitely hit with their burgers. We tried their Korean BBQ burger and Torta burger, both of which were delicious. Surprisingly, or perhaps unsurprisingly (with all the great reviews), the burgers weren't a mess of sticky sauces and random ingredients that create the "appearance" of fusion burgers. The burgers had a great balance between being ...a burger... and the style it tries to match. I could still appreciate it as what it is - a burger, but also enjoy the kimchi, cucumbers, etc. Not sure if that makes sense but yea. The cherry on top was their rosemary fries. Those were probably one of the best fries I've had in a very long time. Fresh out the fryer, it was perfectly crisp on the outside with substance in the center and the seasoning was on point. I wish we got two combo orders instead of just one! Will definitely be back - if not for the burgers, then for those rosemary french friessssss Yelp Adventures 2020: 12/??

Banh Mi & Torta
Doreen T.

My Banh Mi Burger was delicious and fusion tasty! I love all the veggies and carrots in it! Our order was ready in about 10 minutes and we took it across the street to have a picnic at the Temple City park. Messy and greasy burgers is a total turn off for me, so PMB is perfect that nothing was dripping down my fingers while I'm chowing down my burger. The rosemary garlic fries was crunchy and delicious. The zuchinni fries that hubby ordered with his Torta burger was a bit messy/greasy though so probably not for me next time. I wish they have more choices with drinks for their combo. I'm not a soda person and would had been nice if they offered sparkling water, but it's not a deal breaker to eat this delicious burger with Aquafina either. Overall a great burger with an Asian fusion twist!

Fan H.

Our good friends suggested Patty Meets Bun and we went to meet pmb in temple city during their opening weekend. So good! Highly recommended and we ordered the bahn mi hamburger and prime burger with rosemary garlic fries and zucchini fries. How can anyone not like banh mi on a bun? Most impressive was the prime burger. No prime rib was used but if I close my eyes chewing, it was prime rib dinner all in one bite. Overall really enjoyed the burgers. Service was friendly and fast. We were told they plan to rotate out a new burger every couple months or so. We couldn't wait to go back to see if they have new flavors already!

banh mi burger
Vanessa L.

I may have seen this on SGV eats but the hubby suggested to try this food truck because it was closeby to our home. I saw the menu and was torn between the banh mi burger or chimichurri. I decided to go with the banh mi burger and I'm glad I did. These fusion burgers were amazing and I am planning to try their other burgers! I didn't go with the hubby to get it but you get good burgers for good prices. I absolutely love their rosemary fries! Even though I was full, I couldn't stop myself from eating them. We also got the zucchini fries but I wasn't a big fan of how they were made. But that's definitely a personal opinion! Definitely give it a try!

Prime rib burger
Justina W.

These burgers are so good! My sister and I ordered two and split them so we could taste each one. We ordered the bbq Mac n cheese burger and the prime rib burger. The bbq Mac n cheese burger was so good! The prime rib burger was pretty good.

I first found out about this place through SGV Eats. One night, my wife wanted In n Out but I remembered this place so I suggested it to her. I went there as soon as they opened and was the first one to order. I got lucky because a few minutes later the crowd came. I got their Korean BBQ Burger, Bahn Mi Burger and their Lomo Saltado Tacos. Let me say, everything tasted excellent. I know their specialties are burgers - but do NOT sleep on them tacos!

Waiting for pick up
Josephine C.

My sister and I was in TC on a Saturday afternoon in January. We decided to check it it at 11:35am. There was already 3 people waiting for their order. The person in the truck was nice and took our order-chimichurri burger with fries and Loma Saltado burger. We didn't wait too long. The fries was crispy with hint of rosemary oil and the burger was yummy. The patty was a good size and juicy while the bun held in its place. I could taste the hint chimichurri sauce in the burger. My combo was delicious and messy so bring a bib to wear when eating the burger. Next time I would try the prime rib burger. I normally don't give out 5 stars, I think this food truck deserves it.

Inside the place is more vibrant and clean. Photos of menu items are astound the window. My parents wanted to come try it after so many years and we went as a family of 6 which they have traveled mainly for 4 adults. We ordered a variety of food items such as zucchini fries, chili cheese fries, pastrami sandwich with onion rings, fish and chips dinner, and ice cream. The staff were friendly and always available, since we can go to the ordering station to ask questions, we asked for picked jalapeños and carrots to go with our food. They gave us a bunch of them in bags. Everything was good, I would say that my favorite is still their zucchini fries and ranch, I love their ranch and glad they gave us a couple containers because I needed more. Definitely a great bite to grab, I think I prefer snacks from here like their huge portion of fries but their burgers are really good as well.

I used to live a few minutes away from Jim's, but only came here once many years ago, before my…read morerecent visit. My family was craving a breakfast burrito so I brought them here, because they serve breakfast items all day. I noticed they had a grill with open flames and thought their burgers must have that nice smoky charred taste, so I got a pastrami cheeseburger. The breakfast burritos were both good and filling, but there was nothing about it that stood out over some of the other burger spots around Monrovia. The pastrami cheeseburger unfortunately had no charred flavor at all. It didn't even have any grill marks, so I'm not sure what the open flame was reserved for. What tasted like thousand island dressing overpowered the beef and pastrami, so I mostly tasted the sweet sauce. Well, we got what we were craving, but I was left disappointed. That's just me expecting too much from a $11. burger, from a place that has the same name as me, and the word 'Burger' in its name.
