Sammy Chon’s Koagie Truck

Love this truck! Not a big fan of their koagies and rice bowl but ABSOLUTELY in love with their Kimchi fries and burritos!
Their kimchi fries are cheese fries with kimchi and I usually add their sesame dressing. You have the option to add meat but i usually get it without and the serving size is huge. I can never finish the whole thing at once.
I recommend trying their burritos with beef and sesame dressing too! It’s really messy and your hands will get sticky but it is so worth it!
One of my favorite trucks at Temple! and the wait time is reasonable but you can always call ahead if you don’t want to wait.

Love this truck! Not only is the food tasty and fresh, but they are more than willing to accommodate a customer’s special preferences! Thanks to Herbert, service is always with a smile! What the typical food truck lacks in ambiance is more than made up for with the more than satisfying portions, freshness, and SERVICE!!!

Got the «kurrito.» A kimchi burrito with spicy pork, sesame, and sriracha. Filling, for sure, and a good deal at $ 5.50. $ 2 for a can of Dr. Pepper though? A bit much. The burrito itself was well constructed but off balance. The kimchi was its usual spicy/​sweet/​sour, but I think it could have used a little more salt.

This is one of the pricier trucks on Temple Campus. If money isn’t an issue for you, maybe this will be a good regular for lunch?
I’ve had the kimchi nachos, which were quite delicious. The kimchi was pleasant, and fermented to the perfect point in my opinion. The wonton wrappers that substituted for tortilla chips were delightfully crispy. Likewise, the kimchi fries were also great.
The only qualms I really have with this truck are the koagies. I cannot for the life of me stomach them. I’m not sure if it’s because of the strange slaw dressing or the fact that the sandwich comes out lukewarm, but I find it overall unpleasant.

In the need for a quick kimchi fix in the heart of Temple’s campus??? If so, this truck is for you! Affordable lunch specials with Korean-​style tacos or rice bowls, vegetarian options, and free a bottle of water with lunch. what’s not to like? Good option on campus.

Was in town and thought I’d try this truck out with my friend. Got the wings but wasn’t what I was expecting. The seasonings were a little off. I tried my friend’s bulgogi taco… Not great either. I’ve had some good korean tacos in DC and these aren’t close. Maybe I’ll try something different next time.

I am going to keep this one simple.
While the flavors are there and they do a pretty quick job of dishing out food from this flashy Food truck, portions are EXTREMELY small for the money they are charging, which always breaks my heart. Otherwise the daily deals they have for each day of the week is probably the smartest way to go if you want to eat here.
Want more food !

I have finally tried the famous KOAGIE from the truck. All of their foods from the menu looks delicious but i had to try their koagie. So for the «protein» i chose chicken bulgogi, the sauce i had spicy sesame and they tricked me into getting mushroom for a buck, sorta. But anyways, the hoagie itself was $ 6 and it was the best $ 6 bucks i’ve spent today. Very creative, the koagie consists of sesame roll and the inside they put kimchi as the base. Very very good, will definitely be back. The other thing i ordered was wings (soy garlic and honey sesame) i thought it will have a lot of flavors but not as much as i would like it, BUT the koagie made up for it. You really should try it. Another thing that’s good about it is they’re very quick, which is very good when you are starving. Kudos.

Not half bad. I was really pleased with the japchae here. It’s not the tastiest I have had, but it is a pleasant lunch option. Very substantial, option to add meat was nice. The vegetables were tasty and didn’t dominate the bowl. I particularly love that this truck sells those Korean shrimp crackers. One star off because the prices are high for simple things like dumplings and noodles. The dumplings themselves are extremely disappointing, 90% chive and 10% pork. Also $ 5 for 5 dumplings is outlandish. Overall, a far better option than most of the tired, greasy Templetown food trucks.

I have been to this truck twice. I love the koagie. It was fab so was the kimchi pickles. The sandwich is a great fusion of korean food and the hoagie. I loved it and can’t wait to go back.

I have walked past this place a few times on my way to class, wondering if it was worth getting food here. It definitely was. The people are very nice and patient. I ordered a beef bulgogi koabie with fries and could choose from one of the cans of coke. I asked if I could have a bottle of water instead (since I cannot drink coke anymore) and they said it was fine.
I sat down to wait for my koabie and it came very fast. I was amazed how quickly I got it. I normally wait at least 15 minutes at other trucks for food like that. Plus, the koabie was much bigger than I expected too, as it was 12 inches. I kind of wish I ordered something more spicy, but I was scared it was going to be too spicy. I want to try their wings next time I go, which will most likely be pretty soon.

A new and welcome addition to the Temple food truck scene! Sink your teeth into customizable Korean-​fusion goodness. So here’s the deal: choose a protein (chicken, beef, pork, mushrooms) and choose a sauce. The obvious star of the show here is the Korean hoagie – the Koagie, so to speak. But there are also burritos (choose from white, brown, or kimchi rice), tacos (flour or corn tacos), rice bowls, and salads. The menu I’ve got here says they’ve also got kimchi fries, kimchi nachos, chicken wings, dumplings, potato shrimp, japchae, and a bunch of sides (choose a dressing).
We prefer Sammy Chon’s Koagie to Koja’s Korean bulgogi cheesesteaks. Even after the Koagie soggified after only a few minutes of waiting to eat it. And even if Koja’s cheesesteak comes with dumplings. The chicken is well-​seasoned and tender. Oh, the kimchi has been marinated to perfection and packs a bunch of crunch. I love the way they cook and spice the vegetable mix – soft and bibimbap-​tasting, and nowhere near overcooked. The prices are reasonable – $ 8 for a sandwich, side, and a drink.
Man, my mouth is watering thinking about this place. I think I want to eat here again this week. You guys are sticking around for the summer, right? Please say you will!
