Foodism

Got the carne asada nachos. $ 10.90 (posted prices do not include tax). The portion was enough for three people. HUGE. I will probably eat the rest for dinner.
I had wanted to try their Poke, but when I got to the truck I saw the price had gone up to $ 14. Yikes…
Kind of a strange combination of things on the menu. Many burgers, then the taco truck style stuff like burritos, tacos, and nachos. Then seafood stuff like fresh fish plates and of course their poke bowl. Some of the burgers were like $ 14, but I didn’t read closely enough to see what ingredients justified those prices.
Service was quick. Next time I’ll try the poke, just hope it’s close to pay day.

By far my favorite food truck out there. The caveat is I’m a TRUE spicy addict and these guys are not shy about laying on the spice! If Tabasco sauce makes you sweat, you don’t actually like spicy food like you claim.
I don’t know what Matt O.‘s problem is below — he says he eats ghost pepper sauces, but he may just be thinking that because he ate a ghost pepper burrito from Taco Bell. If you order a ghost pepper burger and it’s so hot that you have to puke, 1. You may be a pussy. 2. You definitely can’t complain because you got what you paid for!
I only ever get the spicy carne asada burrito and it’s amazing. It’s one of the only dishes from a food truck (or really any restaurant) that truly tests my fortitude and strength of will to finish it because they make it so hot! As I’m typing this review there are literally drops of sweat on my desk from today’s burrito!
If you want a gourmet type foodie experience, this isn’t the truck for you. It’s definitely So Cal beach bum comfort food, but unlike other trucks that just throw some pickled jalapenos in a dish and call it «spicy», then offer up tapatio or sriacha when you ask for more heat, these guys bring the fucking heat.

I would have a hard time believing that the truck’s owner is with these guys, as they’re so unbelievably rude to customers that we all left the line, and I abandoned my order that I had already paid for, because after the confrontation I was afraid they probably would tamper with it anyway.
A guy comes up and asks a simple question, «hi, does the burger come with fries?» (some items on the menu are specified to come with fries, some items don’t specify. The worker responds «no, what kind of question is that? the burger comes as a burger, the fries are another option, look at the menu over there». The patient person refers back to the menu, while the worker goes back inside the truck and starts ranting to his coworkers loud and clear for every customer to overhear. «who asks that? What kind of a question is that? does the burger come with fries. that’s like me going into a car dealership, and asking the guy hey does this car come with a trailer? what an idiot. what a dumb question».
This obviously led to an uncomfortable interaction with the customer he was talking about, who was still standing three feet away.

Didn’t find only one strand of hair, but two.
barf!
Older dudes with long hair surfer looks and ‘ttudes, please wear hair nets.

thx

The worst customer service:(the food is OK, but there are only 2 people working and they are very slow. He doesnt have any patience with customers, had to stay in line for 40min. To get my food.
Will not buy food here never.

We had them at our school fundraiser and they were awesome. Everyone at the event came up to tell me how great the food was, (they made me look like a genius) Now I need to go track them down to get some of the Hawaiian Poke that was so yummy.

Should’ve went to taco bell like I planned, nachos bell grande way better than their pulled pork nachos

Why so salty? The poke was salty, and the 5 chips they give you with your poke were coated in salt.
The portions were ok, but still very pricey. If you’re getting poke get the wasabi poke since it comes with avocado vs the regular poke, which would cost $ 18 if you add avocado (OUTRAGEOUS!).
Another food truck dud.

I have had this truck multiple times in the past and it has always been decent, although slightly overpriced. I finally realized that the difference in price between the regular burger and the «hot and spicy» (which I have had multiple times) is $ 5 for a few inexpensive toppings. After mentioning it, I was told «you don’t have to get it then» in a very rude manner. I decided to go with it anyways because I have always enjoyed it on past occasions.
As I picked up my food I was told that I could pickup a drink ‘on the house.’ I originally credited this to the fact that he may have realized that he was a little over the top while ordering my food. However I quickly realized that this was most likely due to another reason.
I got home and took one bite into the burger. My mouth and face lit up like I have never experienced. I am someone who can stand spicy food well above the average person. I have had their hot and spicy burger AND their ghost pepper burger (which is supposedly spicier). It was so bad that I had to run to the bathroom to throw up. The pain was practically unbearable for close to an hour. When I removed the bun from the burger I saw that they had, most likely on purpose, spread pure ghost pepper sauce all over the patty. It was not the mix that they use in the actual ghost pepper burger, but the pure concentrate. The guys working this food truck purposely sabotaged my food because I pointed out their unfair pricing scheme.
I was going to return to the truck to confront them and the Fresco Community Market that recruits them, but realized that this is an easily deniable claim or could be said to have been a ‘mistake.‘
Save yourself the trouble and avoid this truck at all costs.

I cannot comment on the food… yet…but I can comment on the the menu variety, prices, and customer service.
First, Kurt was super friendly and attentive (we were vendors working at the Melrose Outpost); hint hint: his truck is there every Sunday… and he came up to us and offered us a beverage and /​or a snack because it was hot out (how sweet)…
Next, it looked like they had a great variety on the menu and there was quite the line!
I’m super excited to try the «awesome nachos» and «poke» …
We (my friend and I) were working and were not that hungry but the water and watermelon (super cold and fresh), was such a nice touch, we will definitely be back again soon…
Finally, he said goodbye to us and asked us to come back again!
I highly recommend !

Saw this food truck on a Melrose outside of the Fairfax high school flea market, there every Sunday! The Hawaiian Poké was AMAZING! So much fish, perfect sauce, great ratio of tomatoes and rice and onions. Their menu had a lot of delicious sounding items and the food truck seems to have a lot of love with a long line and excited customers. As I first timer, I was pleasantly surprised to see food this fresh and delicious come out of a food truck! Give it a try yourself.

Ok. Here we go. A solid 3 star review here for various reasons and I was really exicted to try this truck too. Purely for the Poke.
Now, I understand being a food truck and all you have limited supply of product. Makes sense. There’s only so much room but to run out of everything and to have a somewhat rude demeanor besides just completely kills it.
Things to note:
–they run out of ingredients for dishes. Be sure to get to the truck on the earlier side of the shift to have a wider menu selection.
— no this can be special orders. Pick a dish and that’s it. Food allergies, too bad.
— the cook is kinda dirty…
— the poke is spicy. And my co worker didn’t feel great after but she has a sensitive stomach.
— kinda over priced for the service but you deal.
Overall, if they’re around again and I feel like spending. $ 9 – 13 for lunch I’ll check it out but with whole foods poke master down the street it’s a harder sell.
They have other island inspired dishes too but I opted for poke.

I usually love the wrap but today they were out of hummus (the best part) and no one told me, so I ordered it anyway. Also, the man at the front taking orders was not very nice to me or my two friends.

Foodism Catering’s truck stopped out in front of my place of business and seemed like it was just the ticket. Placed an order for chicken tenders and fries only to receive a sorry pile of «food» burning through a styrofoam plate. The fries were mostly edible but the tenders swept me down memory lane to elementary school lunchtime. McDonalds can serve real meat chicken for pennies, yet this place can get away with selling six pieces of fluffy, mystery meat nuggets masquerading as tenders for $ 10?!? They even managed to burn the hell out of whatever form of protein/​cardboard they are currently hawking out of the back of this truck.
Post script — a coworker ordered the nachos and was equally unimpressed as the chicken was covered in the unmistakable smell of sea food. Nice.

HOLY GRAIL OF NACHOS!!!
Absolutely delicious, full of flavor and so inexpensive for the massive amount you get. I highly recommend this food truck if it’s near you so you can try these nachos!
(office was jealous btw)

I see a lot of hater reviews of this truck; I ordered the poke bowl for lunch when I saw the truck outside my office. Big portions, delcious, and lots of tuna. They got the flavors down right. I like ginger and felt it could have used MORE ginger. The poke bowl, at $ 10, could feed two people. I docked a star, cause the menu signs were super ghetto. Usually I wouldn’t dock stars for non-​food related things, but it was super ghetto.

Got the tuna poke bowl. Found a hair in it as soon as i opened it. Tasted weird as well. Not good at all.

Really high quality burgers, giant portions, friendly welcoming staff. I got the double cheeseburger with cheddar and thousand island… very very filling. The spicy fries were pretty spicy.
The guy at the window (I’m assuming the owner) was really really nice.

Tried Foodism food truck for the first time today. I was very excited to see healthy options in their menu, compared to all the other food trucks. However, I must say I was quite disappointed. Started with a 45 minute wait to order and get our food and the line wasn’t even that long. We ordered a Cajun seabass with rice and veggies, Cajun chicken burrito a seasoned fries. All three items were insanely salty and spicy, and not good spicy. There was no flavor, just heat. Don’t get me wrong, we love spicy food but the spice cannot overpower the entire flavor.
They have a lot of potential, just need to adjust the seasoning.

I’ve been straight up slapped with deliciousness. This unassuming truck manned by a golden haired, chilled out surfer dude blew my expectations out of the water.
The theme is very Cali, with a focus on seafood, some Mexican, with heavy emphasis on fresh tasting ingredients. Although I initially balked at the prices (8 – 10 per entrée), I realize it’s cause he serves up huge portions of quality food.
The Hawaiian poke was a sriracha mayo poke with ginger, onions, cucumber, tomato on a bed of al dente white and red rices. The flavor profile was bright, spicy, sweet. The texture of the rice and vegetables really contrasted with the ahi tuna and kept the meal interesting.
I also got the carne asada nachos. This thing is HUGE. Enough for two hungry guys. The meat is tender and flavorful.
The cart has a big selection of hot sauces and free tortilla chips, as well as sodas, coconut juice, etc.
Definitely trying this place again soon.
