It was good stuff, but alas, it is no more. Per their FB page, their last day of business was 9/27/02. Wishing them the best of luck.

I'm in town for business, wanting to try this food truck so much, walked 30 mins from my hotel for the 3rd time this year, closed again :( super inconsistent so I'm just going to give up on it. Last attempt Tuesday at 12.30pm.

This food trailer is within walking distance of my building. I did appreciate they ask if you want spicy or not- instead of surprising me with food that's too hot/spicy. I got the the Pad Thai w/chicken. They include a tiny little salad. It was all really good. I look forward to returning and trying something else.

I went here and food was not the best, I definitely am disappointed, the food needs to be seasoned properly. It doesn't taste as authentic as it should, lemonade is good though and would recommend that. So I will give 2 stars because of the lemonade.

I may have a new favorite Thai place now. I finally gave My Thai Mom a try today and was blown away. While I did find their Medium (3 out of 10) Pad Thai Beef too spicy for my tastes, the flavor was incredible - I'll definitely be back.

Greta good and reasonable price for such large portions! They can get fairly busy during lunch rush but nothing ridiculous and the food is worth the wait!

I had the beef pad Thai and it was outstanding. Simply the best. And be sure you love SPICY before asking for it spicy. They will aim to please!

Super nice and fast service

Everything tasted the same. I don’t know what was used as a binder for these dumplings, but I couldn’t eat it. It all just tasted like black pepper. It reminds me of what you would get in a shopping mall. Not what I would expect right on Congress.

Good food, good portions, friendly staff! Love this option for something quick and homemade in the area.

Pad Thai is super salty feel like eating salt. The saltiest pad Thai I ever had

So grateful to have had a thai food truck around. I was touring the area with my parents and I think it was near the lunch closing time but they were kind enough to let us get in a last order, which was fantastic because the food was great! It's operated by a mother and son, and I love that dynamic. Thank you for the delicious lunch!

Don't be in a hurry. It does appear to be a mother and son working together. Our lunch was delicious and there was customizable heat to the red curry. Thumbs up!

This downtown location is out of the way but worth it. We randomly went on a Saturday night and almost every table was full. We got the last table and ordered the dumplings and egg rolls. They were so good! We got the bacon fried rice and it was really interesting and something I have never tried before. I really liked the different flavors together and overall really enjoyed our dining experience. Small restaurant but great food!

With so many food trucks focusing on tacos, gyros/shawarmas, BBQ and burgers it's nice to find one with some Asian flair. A surprisingly large menu for a food truck. Not quite as good as a dinner out at a Thai restaurant, but very good quality (and value) considering it's a food truck. Pork Egg Rolls: Very crispy. A good amount of savory pork against the cabbage and other veggies. Didn't feel particularly Thai, but still tasty. Pad Thai w/ Shrimp: Gotta get this as a benchmark dish, right? The noodles were firm and springy, absorbing a lot of that salty umami flavor. Maybe more flavor infused than other Thai joints. A decent amount of shrimp, albeit a bit on the shrimpy size. Lots of little fried eggs bits. Didn't notice any tofu though. A good amount of chopped peanuts, but only on top. Pretty solid for a truck! Green Curry w/ Beef: Lots of nice curry broth, with a good spicy kick. The beef was soft and boiled. Loads of different veggies. Some were nicely cooked and others felt a bit too raw. Only complaint would be that the side of rice felt a bit skimpy given all the curry. Mango and Coconut Sticky Rice: So much fresh mango! They didn't skimp on the good stuff here. The sticky rice was firm and covered in coconut cream. A nice light-ish dessert with a good healthy serving of fruit.
