This is a one-woman show with excellent, friendly service and delicious food! We were able to sit inside at Night Owl to beat the heat, which was much appreciated, but there are picnic tables in the shade, too. Everything we ordered was excellent: Grilled Chicken w/Yellow Rice and Green Chili was some of the most tender, flavorful chicken I've ever had. The Batagor Fried Dumplings were a large portion and very filling. We loved the peanut sauce for dipping. Lastly the Empal Gentong w/smoked brisket had a sizable portion of brisket included and the broth itself was both flavorful and light. We ate every bite of what we ordered and will definitely return to try more of the menu!

It's hard to find Indonesian food in Texas so I was super excited to find Yeni's! They have a few…read morepopular favorites like beef rendang and bubur ayam. Unfortunately, I was not super hungry so I only order one plate. I had to pick batagor which is a fried chicken and shrimp cake with spicy peanut sauce. It was delicious and is probably my all time favorite Indonesian dish. Yeni's is a food truck parked outside of Night Owl bar. You can either take to go or sit at one of their shared outdoor picnic tables. Great spot to get a small taste of what Indonesian food is like. I highly recommend you give it a try!

All three have half bold flavors without being too sweet (this is probably the best compliment an Asian dessert can get). In addition, all of their gelatos have the perfect smooth consistency without melting too quickly. They are located in the same food truck park as Asado's Taqueria so there are plenty of picnic tables to sit at. Between the small lot adjacent to the park area and street parking, I have never had an issue finding somewhere to park close by.

Shiv, the chef on board, recommended three meat bowl. I choose jerk, tikka and Mediterranean flavored chicken. It truly was an explosion of flavors and textures in your mouth. Each piece of chicken was individually flavored with generous portions. I can also taste the finely chopped onions, soft yet plump tomatoes, sour cream and another secret sauce. All of these meats, vegetables and sauces topped a bed of fluffy rice. My taste buds were dancing! Shiv was super kind and accomodating. There is covered seating near the food truck. They have a very unique food concept. You can buy chips at the gas station and they will add toppings from the food truck, I.e. like a Dorito or Frito pie with a spice tip. Give Krave Kitchen a try!

Shiv was incredible and so, so, so sweet. He asked us for our feedback multiple times and even gave us some samples of their berry smoothie, which is absolutely delicious. I highly recommend getting Doritos nachos or the hot fries as your bags because both offered great bases. If you can't eat spicy, ask for more white sauce and none of the spicy sauce. I'd also recommend asking for more tomatoes. The chicken schwawrma + gyro was a fantastic combination, and there is so much food for just $12. I highly, highly, highly recommend coming to krave. They open late, and seriously, Shiv is the sweetest. Please support local businesses!

Bring your own chips!! FYI grab a big bag.

The fried chicken was cooked to perfection - flavorful, light and filling. The sauces were so good! We got medium spice level, which was pretty good but I think I'll try one level up (spicy) next time for more of a kick. If you're a spice lover I'd recommend that. I preferred the Kai Prao because of the diverse flavor profile and the addition of bell peppers for some crunch. Yum! All orders are served with a side of white rice and their house salad. A hearty, filling and affordable meal to satisfy your next Asian fried chicken craving.

They said it would be about 20 minutes for food since they were slammed, but I appreciate knowing it was made to order, so no problems there. Tried the Kaeng Panaeng and it was good overall. Huge portion size but wasn't quite what I was expecting. Salad was pretty standard but I'm glad they kept it separate so it wouldn't wilt from the heat. As for the chicken, I was hoping by itself it would be more thai inspired/marinated/seasoned but it's effectively just chopped up chicken tenders to be dunked in the curry. The curry is flavorful, albeit a bit watery, which I wish was reduced a bit. But if curry is not your thing, my friend's Kai Zabb was very good: tangy, sweet and heat all at once, so good to really switch up bites. And while I wasn't expecting sticky rice, I can't help but say it's the first time I've had thai fried chicken without it. All in all, I think its a great new place to try out, but if you've had thai fried chicken before, just temper your expectations.

Such a cool area to eat! It was much cooler under this covered area (which is also under some tree coverage).

The quesadilla came with some avocado and sour cream too. There were some benches in the shade if you wanted to eat there and you know it's good if the manual labor guys get their lunch here!

Their pickles are sweet which is ideal with that level of heat. I got the hot which was perfect for me. The fries are amazing tbh, even after sitting in the fridge, they had a great flavor and texture somehow. I wish they put more sauce which is probably my personal preference haha It was a good meal overall, but not my favorite fried chicken spot. The burger with curry sauce WAS SO GOOOOD!!

It is tasty, but probably the hottest thing I've ever put into my mouth and I've traveled the world trying many different local foods. OMG, I was sweating and had no liquid with my order. The taco, however, was very tasty and like others have written, the tortilla is awesome. $4 for 2 fajita beef street tacos, à la carte, is a fair price. The menu is in Spanish only and the girl working the truck knew almost no English. So, asking my usual, "What's the best thing you have and what do people come back for to eat?" got a blank stare. 2 small, tasty tacos it was and I was pleased. I'd do it again, WITHOUT the sauce! It was a bummer that I put the sauce all over my first taco, but I ate it anyway. I'll pay for it later. Lastly, a note about the sauce would help, but there may even be one that I can't read. Great food truck! Yum! BTW, cash only
