I got the taco plate dinner- 3 tacos, rice and beans. I got one each of chx, ground beef and shredded beef. They were all amazing, but the shredded beef was my fav. It came with 2 salsas- green and red. Both really good. The red had a great heat that lingered but didn't burn. I would go back often if I lived in town. I've already told my friends coming into town this weekend that this is a must go!

TL;DR: Food was served quickly, was tasty, and I would eat there again…read more Details: I ordered Vegetables Hibachi, which tasted similar to most of the fast-Japanese food available locally, and I ordered Vegetable Noodles, which is different than what you can get at most of the area fast-Japanese places which mostly serve fried rice with their hibachi fare. The noodles were similar to fettuccini in width and slid easily into my mouth. Portions were filling for both of the items. The dipping sauce was tiny sized, but plenty-and reminded me of Thousand Island salad dressing, but slightly different. The vegetables for both were onions, carrots, broccoli, and some sort of squash/zucchini, all sliced small/mini-bite sized. The spring rolls are the deep-fried kind, and vegetable. Not sure if these come with a dipping sauce. Plenty of my friends seem to enjoy their bubble teas-might try this on a return visit. They also have Rayume sodas. Location is in a parking lot across the street from the Menard's on IL 173, just West of Rockford Speedway. The parking area is not well lit, so beware of the large potholes that will gobble up your tires as quickly as you will gobble up this tasty food in a few parts of the lot, but there is plenty of open, free, parking, and it feels safe. If they are busy, they will give you a pager so you don't need to stand around the trailer after you order and pay (they accept credit cards and cash). I assume the parking lot allows for semi trucks, as it's huge, spacious, and on a state highway/not far from the I-90/I-39/US51 interchange and assumed to be on a truck route. No restroom facilities on site: it's a food truck.

The noodles aren't too greasy but have good flavor, which I personally prefer. The service is great! The people that run the food truck are very kind and are always excited to see their costumers.

The 16 (?) year old questioned me about something on te order, to which I responded, "Yed, sir." He scooped my ice cream into a bowl, poured Carmel on it and proceeded to scoop 2 bare handfuls of cashews on top. I told him politely it probably had nothing to do with him, but was surprised he hadn't been trained to use a scoop for the cashews. This fell on deaf ears as he walked away without a response. He then proceeded to make my granddaughters sundae, continuing by scooping the jimmied out of the container with bare/ungloved hand, along with the cherry for a topping. I told him if I return and see the same procedures unchanged I will call the health department and report this.

Has more than just the ice cream. There's also burgers, pretzels, and more. A pretty good location in a mostly quiet area. It's on Kilburn Avenue close to Searls Park. This makes for a nice stop after walking around or whatever. Has about what to expect from an ice cream place. It's about $2.25 for a slushie. Also there's some hot food. It's about $2.95 for a pretzel. Pretty basic stuff. It's not great or anything. They're known for the soft serve, so if getting ice cream get that. Has seasonal hours. It opens in the spring and is the busiest obviously in summer. They close up for the winter.

The menu is bigger than it seems. Also has things at lunch. There's quite a lot to look through. It's about $4 for a coffee. The one I got was the Samoa Mocha. Get it cold or hot. This is made with caramel, coconut cream, and mocha. It's about $2 for baked items. They had vegan chocolate chip cookies from a local bakery, along with the usual things like croissants and muffins. Going here might be a challenge. It's busy and there's limited hours. They're closed Sundays and Mondays, only open for breakfast and lunch, and they close earlier Saturdays.
