    It was an excellent burger, perfectly flavored. We ate at the Rehman Mosque garden grove. Would recommend.

    First off, these guys are awesome. Friendly and personable. I had seen their food truck on Hoover / Jefferson just outside the USC village. I finally decided to stop by and give it a try. Went with the double up combo which consisted of 2 sandwiches and fries. The tenders were great, not dry but juicy and full of flavor. Tried both mild and medium levels and honestly they were both delicious. Would 100% recommend and will 100% be back for more. Thanks Guys

    Slider with crispy fries & sunset sauce

    Just tried Sunset Hot Chicken for the first time and WOW I got the slider combo with crispy fries and their sunset sauce at medium spice and it was honestly perfect. The chicken was super crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside, and the seasoning had so much flavor (not just heat). The fries were fresh and crunchy, and that sunset sauce tied everything together with a sweet + spicy kick. Medium spice was just right for me, flavorful with a little heat but not overwhelming. Definitely coming back to try a hotter level next time If you like hot chicken or just good comfort food, this spot is 100% worth it.

    Sunset hot chicken is new to LA looking to serve chicken sandwiches and they did it right. The chicken is nicely seasoned and not too overpowering. The bun reminds me of a sweet Hawaiian roll that melts in tour mouth. The fries are also good to pair with their house sauce. Thank you! 8 mukbang up @maarrjack

    Ate most of this before the pic because I'm gonna eat first .  Was a 3 piece combo, the piece remaining is medium hot

    This taco stand is seriously ripping people off. They're charging tax, and the prices are different…read moredepending on whether you pay with cash or card... on top of that, it's being charged per item. Honestly, it's really disappointing to see a Latino owned business treating its own community this way. We should be supporting our community, not taking advantage of our people. My friend recently had an experience here that was extremely disappointing. Her card didn't go through, but the cashier didn't notice that the payment had been declined and gave her the food anyway. Once my friend realized the payment hadn't gone through, she immediately went back inside and politely explained what had happened because she wanted to make it right. Instead of handling the situation professionally, the cashier became aggressive and accused her of stealing. My friend was extremely embarrassed and upset, especially because she is a local resident who has consistently supported this business. Mistakes happen, but there's a respectful way to handle them. Unfortunately, after this experience, we will not be returning. I would encourage others to consider supporting another local business that values and respects its customers.

    Lmao changed my review because I literally waited 6 hours for their shift change (the First Lady…read morewas deadass getting in the car to leave when I walked back up) and whatya fkin know they had rice. I wish she would've told me she didn't understand me instead of pretending she knows what the fck I'm saying so we can figure it out or get someone to translate. Don't confidently tell me no we don't have it, and I'm like yall have no rice today??, and she tells me no. Just ask me what the fck I'm talking bout shorty. Idk if it's a language barrier but I get a side of rice here all the time. Literally come here once or twice a week and get fkin rice. Today this lady looked at me like I was insane and said they had no rice which is crazy bc what rice do they put in the burrito then. Wasted a 15 min walk just to go home empty handed and start up my car and find another truck.

    Misnomer. When I saw the name of this food truck, I thought this might be Central American's "soul"…read morefood, but it was actually US Southern soul food with a little Latin twist. The only Latin American ingredients were tortilla, store-bought chips and their mango salsa (which was good). I like the idea of putting southern food in tortilla for convenient, food-truck dining, but I would expect a bit more blending of the two cuisines with its name. Zora Neale's Special: perfectly seasoned and grilled tilapia with greens (kale) and Mac n' cheese for $12. They serve it in a hamburger styrofoam box, so it looks rather small, but they load it and are very generous with the portions! I couldn't finish it in one sitting. I must say the greens and Mac n' cheese were quite salty, though. 3 Taco Special: your choice of chicken, beef brisket, fish and/or oxtail(!), which comes with store-bought chips and their mango salsa for $12. Each taco is regularly priced at $4. They allow you to order different kinds of meat per order, which is nice, but they didn't have oxtail at this time. :( The beef brisket was good, but again, a tad on the salty side. For sides, I tried the plantain chips and sweet potato fries. The plantain chips were not chips at all, but fried plantains, which were delicious, but we expected chips. The sweet potato fries were crispy and seasoned just right. I also ordered what I thought was watermelon juice, but it was really sugary lemonade with a few pieces of watermelon in it. Again, not what I was expecting. :/ The staff working in the truck was really nice, though, and tried to get orders out quickly.

    Absolutely delicious!!! Service was great. The staff recommended this dish, and it was prepared in…read moreless than 5 minutes. It may look small, but trust me, it's so filling!! It's called the Maya-a. The meat is a tangy sweet bbq sauce with delicious tender pulled pork on top of well done mac n cheese and jalapeno cornbread underneath. I'm still dreaming of the next time I can order this deliciousness!!
