50 Best Food Trucks near Lyndhurst

“I ordered a pull a part cupcake cake, number 9, Fortnite themed for my son's birthday. The entire experience was so easy from start to finish. From the convenient user-friendly website ordering system, payment system, and seamless correspondence with Polkadot Cake Shop, I knew I was working with a true pro. I sent a picture of what I envisioned and got exactly that and even better. I've never had any service where I have provided a picture and gotten the EXACT results! Just blown away. The ingredients of the cupcakes were top notch as well, tasted so good, my guests were commenting how it was the best cupcake frosting they have ever tasted. And the 'icing on the cake' was that we received a premium custom-made cake at a reasonable price! I will definitely be using Polkadot Cake Shop for future events, thanks for making my son's birthday a memorable one!“

“I'll keep this short and to the point: this is the best burrito I've had in the city hands down, and it's not close. Everything fresh and phenomenally seasoned, the lengua is succulent, the al pastor just the right spicy-sweet mix, I can't wait to try a few more meats. The staff is super friendly and the food comes out quick. As far as ambiance, getting in and out of there in record time is all you really want from a food truck. The best.“

“If you grew up eating chicken over rice at halal carts in the city only to go vegan later in life you've experienced the extreme disappointment that comes with ordering falafel over rice without white sauce. It's a tragedy and a reason never to visit a halal cart again. Not at Sam's. Here the falafel is king and the platter is a shrine to the balls of chickpea. The sides and sauces all pack a punch of flavor and keep you coming back for more. The guys who work the cart are really sweet too. These falafels occupy a place in my heart.“

“Easily 10/10 and one of my new favorites. Having recently discovered a gluten intolerance, it's been difficult finding locations that can accommodate me! However, wisp went above & beyond to explain the menu items to me, offered substitutions of rolls to make it GF friendly, and even labeled all of the GF items (including GF soy sauce that I did not even know existed)!“

“When I find a gem, I share it! Yes, yes, yes! Hallelujah to good food! We were trying to find some tacos to eat before going home and I came across a little taco truck that I had to try! They have the pastor tacos in the traditional rotating-roster, and they were delish! I also had an elote ? with everything, and a tiny bit of the powder-picante was enough for me to get a kick of spice in my mouth that turned on all the right taste buds! The lady who took care of us was polite, fast, and so kind! I will definitely be back to try the other tacos they have!!“

“Venti is a great sandwich shop in JC. We used to get sandwiches from there back when they only had a food truck. Unsurprisingly, they've leveled up and have a brick and mortar location now. We usually get the chicken parm with vodka sauce and the spicy Italian sub. Can't go wrong with either!“

“The Blended Bistro is amazing. Everything I’ve had has been absolutely delicious. My favorite things are the ham croquettes, the Cuban chicken sandwich, the pernil and I can go on!! If you haven’t been there this is a place you need to run and check out. Staff is great, place is adorable, cozy and feels like home. Owner Maddy, has knocked it out of the park with all her recipes.“

“I want to thank Henry for taking my last minute Thanksgiving order. First time I ordered And it won't be the last!! The food was delicious and so fresh. I was hoping to have leftovers for the next day, but my guests had seconds and thirds and did not leave a grain of rice!!!!“

“Got the chicken over rice here and wasn't expecting much but was surprised by the value and taste. The serving was more than enough for two people and the taste was good. He even put in extra sauce and salad for us. No nonsense and definitely would recommend this food truck if you're looking for halal food in SoHo.“

“We went to this food truck late last night for Halal and it was very tasty! We ordered the chicken over rice and got a very big portion for only $11. The employees were very friendly and got the food out within 5 minutes. We would come back here to order Halal if we are out again in Hoboken.“

“First of all i should slap this man for good his food is. i little get off work every few days and scoop me up a platter or two. the preparation it takes for when everything is fresh, well seasoned and so damn good! A BLACK OWNED BUSINESS!! not too many in the city but this one here is top 5. y’all definitely won’t regret it. the food is great, the prices are reasonable and the customer service is phenomenal. 100/10.. GO GET YOU ONE! ❤️❤️❤️“

“I always hoped for an excellent yakatori spot near Hoboken - never would have guessed it would be a dedicated chef working over red hot coals in front of the Starbucks on Newark. Bless this man.I ordered 2 mushroom skewers & one chicken. Was VERY VERY good. Like, I haven't had skewers this good since hitting up that Michelin star Yakatori spot in the city (I do hope they still exist, its been a while).Admittedly, I've passed by him MANY times before making a purchase. I was always either on my way to a lunch with someone in the city or on my way back from one. This time, funnily enough, I was coming back from having handrolls at a nice place. You'd figure I'd be Japan'd out - nope - there was capacity and I had put it off long enough. Was very much worth it. Don't make the same mistake I did, just go for it.It does take time for him to do his magic - he suggested in the future that I could get the order going in advance by sending a message on Instagram. Will take him up on that next time - especially when it's freezing out.“

“Best food we ate in NYC, especially because we can't get it in San Francisco. The $10 price point makes it even more delicious and worth the hour wait in line. Portions are perfect for post-show munchies and you can tell the meat is so fresh. Always ask for extra white sauce!“

“Great (huge) sandwiches, great price, and the owner is a great guy.He had already closed up and turned the grill off when I came up to him and fired it back up to get me a banh mi. I didn’t ask him to and told him it was alright but he insisted.I furthermore didn’t have cash so he made it work with one of the other carts so i could get my sandwich.“

“I am so glad i stumbled upon this gem on social media. We will definitely be back. You can really tell when someone puts their heart into what they do and Chef Christina's one of those people. Great service! I suggest following the IG for updates @preppedforyou. Everything is fresh and made to order! We got the oxtail, jerk chicken and the festival. Can't wait to try the whole menu!“

“I had tried a few different places to get my chicken over rice with salad and hands down this is the best that I have ever ever tasted great price for the amount you get I highly recommend this truck and my co workers also ordered food and everything was great thank you for “

“Someone should do a YouTube series blind tasting NYC halal carts; the “GOATs”, as the kids say, which includes Santa, all taste the same, and it’s a hot pile of meat. No one in their right mind would be able to tell the difference.It’s seasoned, portions are respectable, and menu is affordable. My combo gyro was $7.99, despite the menu stating $6.99. Not complaining, but Santa should probably update the sign to avoid any confusion.Friendly and quick service. You can find a very good cart like this anywhere in the city, and Santa Clause is one to check out if you’re by Union Square.“

“It's a hot dogs truck rated highly in the state where I live just outside a major park in Newark NJ Very enjoyable especially in the spring and summer months with all the activities of the park A romantic date if you're into enjoying the outdoors the activities and still the quaintness of enjoying each other's company ?“

“Some legit AF pizza. Awesome crust, really good sauce, just the right amount of cheese and toppings. I've ordered from here a half dozen times via Slice. Great stuff. This is my go-to when I'm not in the mood for another spot's square-cut Roman style, which is probably my favorite pizza joint in Montclair. That said, LPH is a solid 4.5/5.“

“As someone who grew up in eating mexican food in San Diego, I approve of the quality from this truck. The employees are always friendly and the food is reasonably priced. I always get the carnitas burrito without lettuce and their red sauce reminds me of home.“

“They are on 45th and 6th Ave on the weekdays too it seems (just got it today). I wasn't feeling their signature Option so I went with the grilled chicken set (#2), and it still is so tender and flavorful. It comes with a tamarind sauce that added to the flavor although I used it sparingly. Only 10 bucks for any set and cash only, but they have venmo and other options.“

“ME Casa is some of the best authentic Spanish Caribbean food I have ever had in the Tri-State area. I am never disappointed with anything on the menu, but their arroz con gandules is some of the best I ever had. Pair that with their pepper steak and you have a match made in food heaven.“

“The best food :)I say this not because Mohammed shared half of his falafel dinner with me, but because he cooked it with love and shared it - the essence of what it means to have food together.I had chicken over rice, the chicken was cooked to perfection, rice was tasty as it could be and the presentation was spot on!I will visit again, but also encourage you to eat here you’ll eat not just through your mouth but with Mohammed’s kindness, your heart as well :)“

“Visited this truck on a very cold day and had a long train ride home and evening was still very warm and fresh when I got to enjoy. I had the chicken tikka over yellow rice with white sauce and chimichurri and it was delicious. Flavors were fantastic and portion was great! A little spicy just FYI for anyone sensitive to spice but I loved it without adding additional hot sauce.“

“This is a great little Cafe. I walked in, place was clean, decor was awesome, staff were smiling and friendly. I got the vegan gyro bowl, and it was really good. It was packed with gyro and rice, i actually got lunch and dinner out of it. Sometimes plant based food in general has a weird taste, however, Pita Bowl's was great. This is my new spot for vegetarian eats.“

“The Ice Cream Lady is FANTASTIC!!! We had a party last summer and scheduled her to come by. She was on time, professional, friendly and everyone (kids and adults) were happy with their ice cream!! Thank you Monica we can't wait to see you again this summer!“

“Let me tell you.. I've tried so many Dominican and Colombian restaurants in Paterson and no chicharron can compete with this Puerto Rican food truck. And this is coming from a Haitian woman who KNOWS how to cook slamming food, respectfully!“

“I was looking for a quick meal when I found Coney Shack. My order was packaged nicely but when I sat down to eat, I was blown away with how delicious everything was. Definitely looking forward to coming back and trying the rest of the menu.“

“Quick and easy lunch, waited for about 5-10mins before food was ready. I had the sesame steak which was flavoured nicely, I would happily eat it without the sauce but didn’t because their sauce is great! Portion size good, value for money as there is a good amount of meat included. Staff were also friendly when served.“

“Whether you’re craving something sweet or savory, their waffles are perfection - crispy on the outside, fluffy on the inside, and absolutely delicious. Plus, the friendly staff are always ready with a smile and helpful recommendations.Whether it’s a quick snack on the go or a leisurely brunch with friends, Waffles and Dinges never disappoints. It’s a must-visit spot in NYC for waffle lovers and foodies alike!“

“Right outside of Marshall's and TJMaxx, you are greeted with rich aromatic smells of halal food. I purchased the chicken over rice platter and not only are the flavors rich and savory, but they add on more that most halal carts don't do. You get French fries, peppers jalapeños, green sauce and chopped tomatos/onions. If this isn't one of the most top tier halal carts I've ever had the pleasure of discovering, then idk what is. Plus Debit/Credit is accepted. Worth the money if you ask me!“

“This food is absolutely amazing. The person in charge is super friendly and let's the food to be super customizable as per the customer's request. They also give extra to their regular customers. Hands down the best food joint in the Rutgers-NJIT area.“

“Friendly and great service. The food truck was very organized when it comes to the ordering. The food was delicious. One of the best birria tacos in the state of NJ. I drove 30 minutes for these tacos. I would recommend coming here for tacos.“

“Their stuff is off the HOOK! I've been getting mostly chicken and pork sticks either on a platter or as a sandwich, and they's always been great, for some reason I hadn't tried the Lamb until today, OMG, one of th best Gyros I've ever had. The only complaint I have is if you get there at the wrong time the line gets pretty long, but that's just a testament as to how good their stuff really is! Keep up the great work!“

“Been eating from this family run business for more than 35 years amd they've been selling their amazing food longer than that! I've introduced countless friends and whenever they're in town during the spring/summer months eating here is one of their first stops. Pupusas are what they're known for but everything they sell is top notch to include their drinks!!“

“Authentic Mexican taqueria; excellently marinated meats; quick service. Protein cuts are standard variations of chicken, pork (al pastor with the pineapple was chef's kiss), beef, with some vegetarian and pescatarian (shrimp, fish) options as well.“

“I'd recently picked up 4 wonderful beers from 'Strong Rope, who offered no food, no food truck nearby. So when I walked around the corner to see the shiny metal caravan, on kitch fake grass, selling sandwiches, I was thrilled. My breakfast sandwich ($8) in the afternoon was very tasty and delivered with style. It was small. 5 stars would need a bigger sandwich. O would definitely eat here again, thankyou!“

“A place that is very well known among the locals. The person who prepares the food speaks less English, make it clear in advance what you want and keep an eye on this and everything will turn out fine. We had the Chicken Tikka, white sauce, green sauce, little hot sauce and be sure to ask for the mango pickle!“

“I do not usually like food truck food, but the food here is soooo good. They now make these wraps that taste amazing, as well as this chicken vegetable soup. Ali is such a personable person, and he keeps the truck very clean. You definitely have to try the wraps and the soup.“

“I was having an active weekday morning and I wanted some good breakfast tacos. Hearty and fresh. I came across this food truck outside the New York Times building and the pictures depicted on the side do not do it justice for what I received. The tacos were heart with meat, eggs, veggies, some spices. As I type, I crave them.I could feel like there was real New York love embedded in this food. I would not want to go anywhere else.“

“Popped in to this delightful restaurant on our first night of a weeks stay in Biarritz. Welcomed by the brothers and sat at a circular table (for 8). This place did not disappoint. Food was divine (especially squid starter, monkfish mains)., good choice of wine, attentive service - just what we wanted. There’s a good chance we will return. Hadn’t realised there was sports screens showing golf and rugby (a plus for most), but with sound turned off this did not annoy the non sports lovers).“

“As my feet swelled while I waited in line alongside with four of my friends, I began contemplating my actions and choices in life that lead to this moment. At every step forward in this seemingly infinite line, I kept asking myself “will this be worth it?”. My friends and I rotated turns waiting in line. We fought. We cried. We bled. But ultimately, we waited. And as we finally arrived at the forefront. The kind hearted man patiently walked us through the menu, and we picked our choices, the chicken combo over spicy rice. Then came the moment of truth, the first bite, the first tasting, allowing our tongue to be blessed. As we took the bite, we realized, it was…. Okay? Nothing heavenly, certainly nothing significant compared to the food from our hometown. TikTok hype has killed proper food tasting. Good food, not worth the wait.“

“We absolutely LOVED Julie and the Metropolitan ice cream truck! We had her come for my daughters birthday party and she served over 50 people in less than 30 minutes! So impressive lol I love that there is soft serve and the prices were excellent! Thank you again! We absolutely will be booking again!!“

“Popped in here whilst on a business trip with 2 colleagues. All had different sandwiches on Hero rolls. Quick, great service and sandwiches were great too. Sometimes there's two much of one ingredient, not enough of another but perfect combination. We only came here on our last day, wish it had been our first, would probably have come every day“

“(Translated by Google) If you are reading this it is because you know what you are looking for. I ordered Longaniza and chicken and beef chimi. If you come from Florida or out of state, come easy. There is plenty of light and it is very clean.(Original)Si estás leyendo esto es porque sabes lo que andas buscando. Pedí Longaniza y chimi de pollo y res. Si vienes de florida o fuera del estado, ven tranquilo. Hay bastante luz y está muy limpio.“

“First time in Brooklyn visiting the brewery…and lucked out to have this wonderful pizza truck parked outside on a rainy Sunday evening. Just giving it a shot was the best decision of the day because holiest of holy, this pizza is phenomenal. It was the best pizza I had in 2022. And 2021. And 2020.Huge shoutout to the owner for hooking us up on our second round for our trip back to Manhattan.“

“I had the corn in a cup and the chicken platter. The corn in a cup was delicious, the chicken platter with white sauce was also really good, however I asked for hot sauce and they didn't put it on top also the chicken could use more flavor , it was pretty much flavorless chicken. I’d be back to get the roasted corn on the cob, it seems like that’s what everyone was mainly getting. Like if this was helpfulPlease Subscribe to my youtube : Safiya Lin“

The lechon is amazing juicy, the bacalauito is so good.... flavor and all perfect crunch, the tostones de panas so good nice crispy while soft inside the sauce that comes with it omg amazing flavor. The yucca was soo good. I Also had a passion fruit pina coloda that was super good not to sweet just perfect. Definitely recommend this place for authentic flavor and amazing customer service. Super friendly and care for there customers. Very affordable. The photos I attached I already ate from.“
