    Loaded cowboy fries
    Judah Y.

    Loaded cowboy fries were very good but a bit too much for me. The shredded cheese, cheese sauce, bbq sauce AND aioli was wild. I felt the cheese sauce wasn't necessary since there was already real cheese. I would have preferred just having extra shredded cheese and have it melted more than the cheese sauce. But I split it with my friend and she loved the cheese sauce! It was $18 then an additional $5 for the meat which I find to be over priced for some loaded fries. I've had larger portions for cheaper. It was a quick turn around time and the service was nice. The biscuit fried Oreos had to be one of the best fried Oreos I've ever had! The fruity pebbles and powdered sugar was just right and not too much. I'd like to try their downtown dog but that also seemed overpriced to me.

    This food truck exceeded my expectations with its mouthwatering selection of food options. The tenderness of the pulled pork on the loaded fries we order was flavorful showcasing the chef's expertise. The service was impeccable, and they also offered me a free side of macaroni and cheese, since they had an extra one which was extra extraordinary. The location of this food truck was placed perfectly, which was in front of a brewery in Culver City.

    Downtown Dog

    Uncle Al's BBQ is my favorite food truck in LA. I've had food from Al's a couple times, and everything has been fantastic. I want to try the whole menu. I've had the Motha' Cluckers (wings), the Cowboy Fries, the Downtown Dog, and the Three Little Piggies (pulled pork sliders), and each item has been amazing. The food is flavorful, savory, sweet, and so tasty. I highly recommend trying Uncle Al's BBQ. You won't be disappointed.

    The staff is very friendly, the food on the other hand is not bbq. My brisket sandwich tasted like crockpot pulled pork with a bunch of bbq sauce. The bread used also denigrated in seconds. Worst thing food was cold upon delivery. Some of the worse bbq I've ever tried

    Breaded wings and potato wedges
    Armando V.

    Had the wedges and breaded wings from This bbq truck and let me say nothing about this truck is truly bbq. No bbq ribs? ......really? I'm sorry you can call your self a bbq truck with no bbq ribs available lol Nothing was sizzling from inside the food truck So at this point I was a little hesitant to order but I'm already here so why not. The breaded wings were good portion size but you can taste the oil from the fryer typically means it was time for a change of oil. The bbq sauce was def store bought. The hot sauce was packaged hot sauce. Not impressed thus far. The wedges were decent but how can you get that wrong. I give it one star because after I finished eating the wings my stomach started to turn and felt very nauseas and sick . Plus like I said nothing bbq about the truck unless you like pulled pork. The staff was friendly and good customer service. Will def not recommend and I would say this truck should have management quality control. This truck Should just be called uncle Al's food truck.

    Truffle Mac and cheese
    Jenny R.

    Went to the food street cinema during the holiday event and uncle Al's BBQ was there and I decide to get the truffle Mac and cheese and the mother clucker wings. The wings were tasty enough but wasn't anything special. The mac and cheese was disappointing, it was like having a very creamy version of Kraft Mac and cheese with truffle oil mixed into it and it was extremely too salty for my taste. Unfortunately, nothing made my palate or my tummy dance.

    Excellent all across the board. Me and my wife were looking to get out of the house on a Friday night, but wanted to keep things fairly casual. We remembered that the Grub Fest Food Trucks were going on Friday nights in Granada Hills, so we decided to make a trip down here. They had some excellent trucks out this round, and this was one of them. What I can say right off the bat is their attention to detail and the quality of their ingredients is too notch. I ordered the pork sliders and the baked beans. When picking up my order, they were nice enough to give me a order of the truffle mac and cheese on the house! Nice touch! I really enjoyed my sliders. Definitely packed with flavor. The baked beans were the standout dish for me; great texture, taste, and really filling. I liked the flavor of the mac & cheese, but it was definitely more on the creamier side. Overall, I was pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoyed the food tonight! Great food and I absolutely recommend them.

    So normally I like to post food pictures with my reviews but this place was sooooo good and I was so hungry that I gobbled up my brisket tacos and totally forgot about my Yelp review! I'll have to repost pix when I eat from this truck again! The meat was tender and perfectly seasoned. The chipotle sauce and some other sauce was amazing and mixed so well with the flour tortillas and queso fresco. I could have easily eaten 5 of these tacos but thank God the order comes with just 3 and they are a good size. The hubster ordered the spiced wedges and big bad wolf sandwich which is the brisket sandwich. He really liked it and it looked so good I'll have to order it for myself next time. Great portion of fries that the hubster didn't even complain about me stealing some It took a little while to get our order but it was busy and so totally worth the wait! I am so glad my community brought them over for our food truck night event! Can't wait to try other stuff from the menu soon!

    LEGITIMATELY IF I COULD GIVE 100 stars i would. Always great service, super caring and respectful. The food is amazing, a lot of the flavors and orders offered are unique and original. Uncle also has its own vibe, unmatched by any other food trucks ive been to. Honestly if you haven't tried it youre missing out and if you have im sure you want more

    BIG BAD WOLF WAS TASTY !!!!!

    Loved the COWBOY FRIES & the BIG BAD WOLF was a mean one taste soo good the service is amazing fast and easy !! Definitely going back for more cowboy fries!!!

We placed our order right away, but gosh, we waited about 30 minutes for it to be ready and keep in mind, the burger you see in the picture was the only thing we ordered. The burger itself was good, and I'm happy to see that they collaborate with different programs and initiatives. But honestly, waiting that long for a single burger definitely tested my patience. Hopefully, the wait time was just an off night.

The lavash was perfectly crispy on the outside while still soft enough to hold the delicious fillings. The truck is located outside the Whole Foods lot.

The bread was a bit too crunchy and hard, but the ingredients and pork was very fresh and juicy. Service was great, immediately upon walking up to the food truck I was greeted by the workers and they took my order immediately. Honestly surprised this place doesn't have a long line, whenever I pass by it I always barely see anyone lined up and I would say you're missing out if you haven't tried this spot. This is easily the best shwarma I've had in Glendale. I also got their fries, which were honestly surprising as well. Their fries were seasoned and cooked perfectly, to be honest probably in the top 5 of best fries I've had from a food establishment. Will for sure come back again, was very satisfied with the price/food/service!
