    BOMB AF I DONT WANT TO FINISH MY FOOD BC ITS SO GOOD .. i want to savor every last bite bomb noodles ,bomb rice ,bomb filet mignon If you are ever in DTLA pull up !!

    Chicken plate +noodle upcharge
    David E.

    As you can see I ate some of the food already, so I shouldn't be complaining but I was starving. Obviously it can't be that bad if I ate it.. That being said, this is NOT Japanese cuisine. This is Linguine with yakisoba sauce. If you're used to having Japanese you'd know that yakisoba is made with wheat noodles. The linguine threw everything off! Secondly, this was supposed to include veggies. As you can see, there aren't any veggies AT ALL! Not even at the bottom. Veggies would've been nice to balance all those noodles. Lastly, the chicken is DRYYYYY. I paid $16 for these noodles +$3 up charge for noodles +$3 service fee +$5 tip. This was soooo not worth it, I'm sorry.

    Platinum Mini - wagyu, bacon scallops, & spicy noodles
    Angelica L.

    We were on our way home and stumbled upon this truck on the corner of the street by the Metro near Circa. We ordered a platinum mini ($28) in which you can choose 2 items on the list and either fried rice or noodles. It took 15 minutes to make so we walked around Circa. Yakitana is more high end than other food trucks in that they give you fancy silverware and a nice togo box cover. They also have nice black seating tables for you to dine. They also gave 4 different sauces which was really nice. It was definitely pricey and not worth it for a box of spicy noodles with 2 skewers. The wagyu was pretty good but not melt-in-your mouth. The bacon scallops were overcooked & hard. The spicy noodles were really good to me and the one item I would order again (if reasonably priced).

    Receipt. Ordered the P2 and bottle water.

    I was glad a could order a healthy meal..for the most part compared to McDonald's, Popeyes etc late in the evening near Staples. With that said, the food was just OK. The white rice wasn't the best..just ok like the rest of the meal. It was a bit pricey but once I got my order, I sort of understood why. The Tupperware they use is high quality (reuse it for work), they give you way above the sauces needed (half of what was given was all the was needed) and the packaging/marketing was very nicely put together. With that said, they should save on the cost of the above and buy better white rice. Again, I would come back only because a) I expense my meals for work b) healthier options at this late evening. Check out the price in the pic so you don't get surprised.

    2 skewer combo with Lamb Chops and Filet Mignon
    Kevin K.

    I was very surprised with this food truck! I didn't expect to fall in love with their food so much. I ordered the 2 skewer combo with Lamb Chops and Filet Mignon. The lamb chops were divine. Melted in my mouth and had so much juicy flavor!! I also got the spicy noodles and spicy fried rice and it's the best fried rice and noodles from ANY HIBACHI place hands down!!! Make sure you try their yum yum sauce!!!! Definitely will be back!

    Presentation of the food truck is clean. Has a nice seating area. Food took a bit longer had to wait about 30 min. Not sure if you can call in an order. Didn't try. Pretty pricey, but then again getting wagyu and scallop etc some "premium" meats. Side portions is hefty. I got a side of white steamed rice and added chicken. They mistakenly gave me friend rice and walked over to stop me from eating it to fix, but it was fine. Big portion of fried rice with chicken. I got the following platinum bowl (4 skewers) Wagyu- nicely cooked, juicy Bacon asparagus-ok Filet mignon-juicy Lamb- interesting they marinated it with a sweet marinade. Tasted more like a pork chop. Unless I had pork chop without realizing it. -1 star wait time. Only thing is it's a great concept, but yakitori is better when the skewers are served as soon as they're cooked, otherwise it's cooled and doesn't taste as good as it was right off the grill. So I personally wouldn't do take out. Maybe fine tune menu to perhaps have food that cook at the same rate.

    Some filet ,asparagus, lamb , salmon, chicken, pork belly!! Oooooooooooh some

    Yakitana is a hidden gem in LA ! best in the city!! Hands down the best quality and good service

    Avenue 26 has a cult following, and I'm happy to announce I am part of the cult now. I really…read moreappreciate that they're open 24/7 every day, so I can visit any hour I'm craving tacos in LA. The first time I went on a weekday in the middle of the day, so it was super empty and not the best because nothing was being made fresh- the meats and potatoes were kind of just sitting in bins so although the flavor was there, the cooled down temperatures really affected the taste. HOWEVER, I visited a few more times after that, these times all late at night, which really turned my experience around. I think at those times there were a lot more people and long lines, so everything was being made fresh and it being hot just made the food taste so so much better. I love how the toppings are all self-serve, and the hot potato is my favorite side. Carne asada, lengua, and al pastor are my go-tos. You'll want to add hellaaa green sauce to everything- I could literally drink that stuff straight. Love the big easy parking lot here, I'll mention that I saw a few security people checking all the cars and plates so I wouldn't recommend trying to park here and walk somewhere else!

    First time for parking lot tacos for me!…read more I was feeling a bit peckish but didn't want to eat too much, so Yelpers, thank you for leading me here! I was able to snag two tacos for $4.50 that tided me over until dinner time. Now: bring your car because there's no place to sit! I arrived on foot, so dined standing up. Quite a variety of means - I'm a "safe" eater and enjoyed pollo and asada. I loved the self-serve salsas; the green salsa was delish and had a good little kick to it. Happy to have found this spot, and want to come back! 2026: 32/100

Mariscos Jaliscos is a simple, humble and easy going food truck that easily beats any sit in boujee restaurant. Their menu is simple and easy to understand. Mariscos Jalisco is best known for their Fried shrimp tacos however, they have one of the best aguachiles I've tasted hands down. Their shrimp tacos are absolutely amazing with the right crunchiness and soft fried shrimp inside. The sauce that comes with these tacos are jam packed with flavor adding to the overall flavors/texture of the shrimp taco. Hurts to say it but this might be my new favorite shrimp taco in ELA/Boyle Heights area. The service here is quick and friendly. I went on a Friday afternoon and did not find busy crowds at this food truck. Street parking is available and the times that i've visited other food trucks nearby i was able to find quick parking. Its a busy street so you will find people coming in and out of parking spots most of the time. I enjoyed my experience here at Mariscos Jalisco and will be coming back very soon.
