To my great regret, I visited YoYo’s Thai Food Truck in Shalimar, FL (in the Sunset Liquors parking lot) and asked for sweet and sour chicken without peppers or onions. The person taking orders immediately rolled his eyes and sighed. I asked if the sauce was already made and explained that I have an onion allergy. He snapped, “Yeah, no peppers either?! Sweet peppers?!” I said, “No, thanks.” He rolled his eyes again and said, “That’s like half of it.”
I responded, “Never mind, no thanks. It doesn’t seem like you want to make my order.” He told me, “Get out of here then.” I said that coming across like that probably isn’t good for business. He shot back, “I’ve been doing this for five years. Don’t tell me about my business.”
The whole interaction was aggressive and completely unnecessary. I wasn’t rude. I wasn’t difficult. I asked a reasonable question about a common ingredient due to an allergy and made a minor request. There were countless ways he could have handled it: politely, professionally, or simply with basic human decency. Instead, he chose hostility. It’s been almost an hour, and I am still shaking my head in wonderment about the whole thing, trying to understand why someone—presumably a business owner—would choose belligerence over politeness.
Even if the food had been outstanding, I wouldn’t return after being treated like that. The only person who showed any professionalism was his associate, who quietly said, “Very sorry, sir,” before I left.
Avoid this place. I think Sunset Liquors has chips. Have those instead. They’ll treat you like a human being, not scum, when you make your purchase.

Best yum nua I've had since Korat Thailand when I served there. The beef was excellent, the vegetables were cut fresh, the heat was amazing, and how it should be. Service was quick.

They are not playing around with Thai spicy. If you think Buffalo Wild Wings atomic or mango habanero is spicy, this is not for you. Order 2x or 3x. Do not order thai spicy if you think Tabasco or tapatio is spicy. Order non spicy or 1x.
If you’ve had the buldak ramen, I’d say Thai spicy is between the black and 2x red. Closer to the red 2x than black. Extremely good flavor, but hot enough to make your nose stuffy, make you sweat, and a few tears rolling.
No complaints as they give you what you ask for in spice level, but I’m definitely ordering 4/5 American hot next time. For reference, my spice level is back samyang buldak is perfect, 2X feels more like a challenge than is enjoyable.

Food is worth the somewhat grumpy service mentioned in other reviews. Give the guy a break, y'all! Maybe he's developmentally delayed, neurodivergent, or just had a particularly bad day/month/year. The food was mostly sublime - especially the red curry. Skip the pork dumplings. สนุก!

In the land of a thousand Thai Restaurants, this unassuming truck prepared, by far, the spiciest and most flavorful Thai dishes I’ve ever had!! New repeat offender here!

Great menu, dinners, and sides. Portions are large, spices are authentic, and individually cooked. Outside seating to wait for your order. Great staff! Very affordable!
Vegetarian options: Stir fried veggies tender and crispy!
Parking: Right off, Eglin pkwy in Shalimar, Fla
Kid-friendliness: Menu for all age groups
Wheelchair accessibility: Yes, the food truck window is a little high. My daughter picks up our dinner. But they deliver or have tables outside.
Recommended dishes: Pineapple Fried Rice, Red Curry, Basil Fried Rice with Shrimp, Spring Rolls, Chicken Fried Rice, American Hot, Chicken Pad Thai, Fried Rice, Cashew Chicken, Papaya Salad, Garlic Chicken, Dumplings, Krab Rangoon

Great food and good prices. I had the basil fried rice with shrimp. It was amazing. Portion size is great too.
The guy at the window is a very rude guy. The food is very good but I can't stand that guy.

The Pad Thai is outstanding and the portion size will bury you. The Moo Tod and Dumplings are very excellent to start your meal and or share… I’m not sharing!!! The sweet and sour chicken is an excellent sweet with the rice… chefs kiss!!! FYI don’t sleep on the Thai beef salad!!!

There’s 20-ish Thai spots in the local area – I promise this is the one you’re looking for. I almost never leave a review for anything and here I am typing one up for a metal box parked outside of a liquor store. Go eat the food. Stop reading this review. Go eat the food. It’s delicious.
