They're also a restaurant, which is in Pearland, and is equally delicious, if not moreso. The food stand can be found at the Asian Night Market over in Alief (or sometimes in other places), where you will get a lot of great Vietnamese food like this, but their main location is in Pearland and is very much worth a visit, but we've tried their food at two different versions of the night markets now, and it's pretty amazing.

The main problem is usually the prices which are astronomically high and put us off from really spending any decent money here.

The place itself is nicely decorated and had 2 claw machines to pass time while your food came out. The service was quick and the staff were friendly. It took about 10 minutes for us to get all of our meals. I really enjoyed the mango fruit tea. It was refreshing and very flavorful, it is on the sweeter side so opt out if thats not your vibe! I would give this drink a solid 9/10! My husband and I shared the #3 - Potato dog (it was an appetizer before hopping to another restaurant!). I wasn't the biggest fan of this dog. The dough on the inside was too chewy, felt like it needed to be cooked a bit longer. The outer layer was pretty good, I enjoyed the crispy potato bits with the hot cheeto crumbs. We all rated our corndog/hotdogs 6.5-7/10. Not sure if we would be back anytime soon but overall its a decent spot to get a quick bite!

Major props to these ladies working this food truck! I was debating between Stick It and The Rice…read moreBox. I'm glad I chose Stick It and I ended up having their food for lunch twice in a row when they were on UH campus. I recommend getting the entrees instead of the a la carte skewers. For around $2 more you can get brown rice and veggies or french fries. Food & Execution (A++): I got the Korean BBQ Pork Belly ($8) the first day and Beef Tenderloins with Chimichurri sauce ($9) the second day, both with brown rice and veggies. The Korean BBQ Pork Belly was just right, fatty, flavorful, juicy, and meaty. Beef Tenderloins was tender, cooked just right, and had that charred flavor. I liked how they served brown rice instead of regular white rice because this amps up quality. Way to make things healthier! The veggies consisted mostly of grilled zucchini. Both entrees had a drizzle of this white creamy sauce over the rice. I forgot what the Korean BBQ Pork Belly's sauce but the Beef Tederloins had Chimichurri sauce, which I LOVED! It was very refreshing. Both entrees were well balanced. Service (A+): I usually hightail it from school to work. From ordering my food to receiving my food was equal to waiting in a Micky D's drive-thru. It was super fast. Price (A-): Price is a little steep for a college student but quality came with the food. The entree portion for me during lunch was just right. It filled me up to the point that I was satisfied. They also did not charge me a fee for using a credit card. Overall I have no complaints. I'm Stick In to these guys! :)

The rice and veggies were good (I poked around the zucchini though because I'm not a fan), and that sauce was addictive! Definitely a fan...I would love to try their other sticks of food!

Great little hole-in-the-wall that my coworkers took me to for lunch break!…read more The menu is mostly snack/dessert food and drinks. They have fries, elote, candies, chips, tortas, fruits, and drinks. Pricing is fair. Fries with queso, hot Cheetos, and jalapeños! Yum! The staff was very friendly and helpful. I would come again!

Agua fresca is a must after walking a lap at Boone Road Park…read more I was surprised with the great convenience. Just across the street from the park. This place is busy on Friday night. I usually stop by to catch my breath after exercise. This is a family run business. The staff speaks good English and their clientele is primarily Mexican. I felt comfortable eating here, because everyone seems to mind their own business. I've heard their ice creams were either made in house or coming from other stores. However, this is not part of the Arandas Family's chain (bakery and taqueria). Aqua fresca is served from a refrigerator, not giant jar as other taqueria. They use ice chips from freezing part of liquid, and then break them as part of drink. That's a smart way to keep the flavor consistent after ice melts. I've tried every flavor. There all my favorites. If this is your first time trying tutti frutti one, be careful with the chopped fruit pieces. Not recommended for small kids. Prices are $2.71 chico, $3.50 medium & $4.50 large.

Julies Antojitos Food Truck

This is such an amazing little find…read more First of all the mangonadas are like legit, spicy, sweet, and delicious. I was worried at first when I saw her make it, but that mangonada is something else. My husband had the strawberry shortcake, my mom the fresas con crema. They all seemed happy. The elote was perfect. I know she adds takis/hot cheetos to hers, but I let her know I didn't want that mess. I'm sure younger folks love it, I prefer the traditional way with cheese, spice, possibly mayo, butter, lemon salt. The kind you look for in maybe a 90s Fiesta. The agua fresca we had was watermelon flavored. Definitely a sweet steal. As for the vendor she was adorable, kind, and talented. If you're bougie you won't like where her truck is located. It's not scary, but you never know with some people. Main things to note is that she is a small business. If she runs out of something, that's it and it seems people in the neighborhood know about her, so she'll sale out of things fast. She also uses transactions with PayPal, cash app, etc. That may or may not be a deal breaker. Anyways, come and find this awesome snack food truck. You'll love it as the quality and prices can't be beat.

They gave 6 cookies which included an assortment of large chocolate chip, double chocolate chip, peanut butter, and sugar. All were burnt and tasted disgusting with an unforgettable after taste (like one that makes you nauseated just thinking about it). The employee told us they were made yesterday and were still great. Def not great and def a waste of calories. The actual restaurant is a typical dirty bar vibe: loud and sloppy with a vibe that everything is sticky. Def not coming back. Just thinking about it gives me the ick.

Now, normally I'm a little hesitant with places that try to do too much, since I really do believe most places can only do one thing/style right. I'm glad to report that AJ's proved me wrong today. Between my party and I we ordered burgers, a burrito, 2 aguas frescas, and a slush. We are all thrilled with what we ordered. Now, I have high standards for my burgers and this places did not disappoint. I ordered the Mega Burger, the first thing in their menu, therefore the signature burger, right? 3 beef patties, cheese, lettuce and tomato with some sauce. I was very satisfied with everything about my burger. The flavor was right, the meat wasn't over cooked and the patties were juicy. Add some fries that were cooked just right and my ice cold agua de sandia, and I was left very full and very happy. The lady who took our order was very sweet, so that added to the experience. One drawback is the neighborhood, but there's not much you can do about that.

We met up with some friends who are vegetarians and come here a lot. They recommended so many dishes that we didn't need any meat for our evening meal. We ordered sweet and sour veggies, Alings vegetable fried rice, and garlic veggies (that were spicy). If you like spice and garlic, you'd like that one. We also ordered some veggie noodles. The portion sizes are very large, so it was enough to share for four grown people and still have enough to take some home. And the food does not lack flavor! Everything tasted great. And for appetizers we ordered corn soup, hot and spicy soup, and steamed dumplings. The service was great, friendly and efficient. The food does not take long to come out. If you have a large party, this is a great place to go, or for a party of one or two, they have small tables to accommodate as well. There's a full bar, so you can dine at the bar while enjoying a couple of drinks. It's a fusion restaurant between Chinese and Indian. It's a great combination if you like either one.
