    Fish and chips
    Brennan T.

    Great food truck parked at the back of a bar! Every bite was delicious! Fish and chips were great. Fish tacos came with a nice slaw. And the roasted brussels were decadent! Nice to be able to order a beer on tap from the bar and grab some food from the food truck that can be enjoyed in the same place. The bar isn't trying to serve drinks and cook food at the same time, so the food truck is super helpful so they each can focus just on what they do best.

    holy smokes. I am speechless. The food is absolutely delicious. My boyfriend and I were on our way from fern canyon and needed a good meal. I got the Fish Sando and my boyfriend got the wagyu burger and beef bulgogi bowl. The fish sando was absolutely phenomenal. It was crispy yet beautifully buttery. The toppings made the flavor even more fantastic. As for the burger, the meat was perfectly cooked and tasted BOMB! The bulgogi bowl was sweet with a little tang. Service was great, came out super fast. PLEASE STOP HERE.

    Yogi Bowl

    I love this food truck! My favorite things it order are the yogi bowl, fish tacos or the fries. I wish they had a full restaurant.

    Brussels and Peanuts

    This place was delicious! My partner and I were visiting Arcata at the end of December and obviously needed to stop at some breweries, so when we wanted to find some outdoor seating for a beer and a snack, we chose redwood curtain/south g kitchen. We weren't super hungry, so we just wanted a snack. We were eying the danky bread, but they were out of it so we went to our next option, the Brussels and peanuts. I am so glad they were out of the danky bread because these were INCREDIBLE and gave us everything we wanted/needed! It was a crispy and crunch and also creamy and some spiciness and acid. We liked it so much we were wondering if we could make something similar ourselves at home. I will say as an fyi that if you have allergies to cashews and macadamia nuts, there were a few mixed in with the peanuts--I'm not sure if that's normal for them or not! We don't have food allergies so it was just a fun surprise for us! The service was friendly and fast, and we love being able to sit outside and look at the redwoods while enjoying our food.

    Fried rockfish taco

    Garlic fries started off as an amazing concept and then devolved into a soggy, unenjoyable mess. South G kitchen has not only resurrected them, but has greatly improved upon the original. The fry part of this dish is perfectly crispy on the outside and soft and pillowy on the inside. They come out of the kitchen covered in fresh garlic strong enough to keep vampires, Sasquatch, the cartel, government entities, and your mother in law at bay for a minimum of a decade. They are generous with that and the mountain of Parmesan that expertly hides the garlic that lurks upon these beholden beauties. The black garlic aioli is so perfect with the fries with its sweet umami flavor. Dip the fry into this and then the Parmesan garlic and it makes a perfect bite. 100 million/ 10 recommend. We also ordered the South Jetty Tacos with fried rockfish. The tacos were generously sized and loaded with fresh ingredients. 10/10 recommend these as well.

    Crispy sweet potato salad

    Okay. These are chefs. Running the most brilliant food truck in Humboldt county. They're my number one spot to recommend for salads. They're fast. Accommodating. And care about good food!!! I their location at Redwood curtain where I can get a tasty rootbeer, have a nice bussing station, games, and a bathroom! With a coveted outdoor area and spacious indoor option for all my friends. Best food truck/location combo in Humboldt.

    Fish tacos
    Deborah S.

    Those were good tacos, probably one of the best fish tacos I've ever had. The fish was deep fried perfectly, topped with a salsa and a green aïoli. Delicious!

    Fish and chips

    Great fish and chips. Fish was fantastic and the french fries were excellent. And to go along with Redwood Curtain beer throws it up another level!

    I hesitate to say it's a food truck even though it is because it's permanently parked at the redwood curtain brewery.

    First time trying Backwood Burritos after walking by it multiple times and I will be back!…read moreGot the outlaw burrito and it was delicious! Eggs, chili, and the chipotle crema made it super creamy and the bacon provided a good texture difference. Chorizo was excellent providing a punch of spice and salt. Only thing is that it was a little hard to tell there was supposed to be tater tots in it, as they seemed to get lost in the rest of the ingredients. Tortilla was also very good, could tell it was high quality. Staff is super friendly (just 1 guy and his burrito cart) and price is good for the quality of the ingredients. ~$12 for the one I got which is the most expensive. Definitely a must try for Arcata! Overall: 4.7/5

    still do not know the hot spots around here but the 2 i tried to get breakfast at had a line (so…read morelikely are good) but i didn't want to wait. Grabbed a coffee at Jitter bean then a Burrito here...only 1 meat burrito left so gave it to the boy and just took a few bites. the guy working the cart was super friendly and kind. it's a quick and easy breakfast! size was a bit small for the price but does seem to be the standard size in relation to other burrito spots in Arcata (i'm used to San Diego which is on another level of Mexican food). solid food easy access get it while you can for best selection. great service. seems to be a popular pick around here.
