Meggrolls

Nothing better then a great tasting friendly food truck. This by far is my favorite food truck in the whole wide worlllddd!
Through my whole pregnancy it was all I craved! Nothing better then a huge fried egg roll full of amazingness.
I cant wait till they start comin back around courthouse. I literally make it my cheat meal of the week! And the man and women are alwAys soo sweet!

It’s been so long since I’ve had a Megroll that I want to hunt down this truck and get some RIGHT NOW! I first tried these at the Fire & Ice Ball Unilocal Event. So I’ve never actually had the food truck Megroll experience. These things were amazing. The burger roll tasted like a Big Mac on like 1,000x better! They cater too. Even if you think you don’t like egg rolls, you’ve got to try these at least once. They are unlike any egg roll out there.

The Big Megg is amazing! Saw this Truck at the Woodbridge Food Truck Festival today. They were selling «pieces» of their rolls for $ 3 which I thought was fair. I got my piece and it was fairly small, about 3 bites. Those 3 bites were phenomenal. Beef and cheese in a crunchy egg roll wrapper, topped with shredded lettuce and Russian dressing and dill pickles. They also had a Buffalo Roll with bleu cheese or ranch sauce and a Broccoli Cheese Roll. Didn’t try those but I’m sure they were just as tasty. I think the truck usually stays in Old Town Alexandria. You need to try these Megg Rolls ASAP!

My boyfriend and I only have 1 day off from work together once every couple weeks so what we choose to do is huge for us. I had seen such great things about Meggrolls I knew we had to try it (and my boyfriend loves food trucks). We drove all the way to the food truck only to find out that they weren’t open. I went on Unilocal again to make sure that I got the hours right. It said it was open but there was no one there. We called the number provided to see if maybe they would be open later or opening soon. We did not get an answer. We called again about 10 minutes later and it was the same story. I understand maybe something came up and they were closed for the day but I wish someone had posted something about it or wish someone had called us back. We still look forward to trying it but we were a little disappointed with our first drive out there. I just hope we don’t make another drive out there for it to be closed again. Hopefully I can give a raving review after trying it.

Thank you to the ‘Fire & Ice Ball” for the introduction of this ‘crack-​like’ substance called ‘Meggrolls’. After that event, I started following Meggrolls on FB and Twitter in case they happen to roll near by hood. Courthouse and Rosslyn is a tad far to venture off for a meggroll or two, but I love that they announce any festivals or fairs that they will attend.
Fast forward a month or two later… we found ourselves at a Catholic School Spring Fling in the heart of Old Town. There the Meggroll truck was parked for the afternoon. Seriously, this festival was flooded with kids, moon bounces, and tiny kiddie carnival rides… and low and behold in the back of the parking lot… was the blue Meggroll truck. We ordered an order of each of their menu items: the famous Big Megg (the spitting image of a Big Mac) and the Buffalo Wing (complete with celery stix). We inhaled those puppies and contemplated some to-​go rolls but held back. These ingenious little crack-​like rolls are a must try for anyone who enjoys their share of the ‘fried-​food’ world.

I’d heard about the Meggrolls food truck as one of THE food trucks to check out in the NoVA area, so I was pretty excited when I first was able to sample them at the recent ‘Fire & Ice Ball’ — totally loved them! Checking out the truck’s social media, they always seemed to be in the Arlington neighborhood, but I never had the opportunity to catch them. Recently, I ran into fellow Unilocalers, LYN L. and DAVE U., and they kindly shared with us that the Meggrolls truck was literally at an event right around the corner from where we were in OT Alexandria — WOOT WOOT — ecstatic!!! We hurriedly went over, found the truck, and made our way over there: P They had 2 options available that day: the Bigg Megg (the Big Mac in an eggroll; ground beef, Thousand Island sauce, shredded lettuce, and pickle slices) and the Buffalo Wing (chicken, buffalo sauce, and your choice of ranch or bleu cheese). While I remembered loving their Bigg Megg from the YE, I was actually totally loving the Buffalo Wing even more! It was filled generously with tender chicken, was oh-​so-​saucy with the perfect tanginess/​zippiness from the buffalo sauce, all topped with a dollop of the bleu cheese dressing, and even a tiny sliver of celery was added as a garnish — it was literally like eating buffalo wings, but in an egg roll form, where the chicken was moist and tender, all dressed wonderfully with the buffalo sauce. Now, it does get a little messy, so a handful of napkins (or wet toilettes) is highly recommended; also, the rolls are a little pricey, at $ 6 per roll (!!!). I’m so glad I was able to check them out, and I can’t wait to try out their other combinations! :D

These things were outrageous! Had grabbed the Big Mac tasting ones at the Shirlington Beer Festival and could’ve sat there all day eating these things. Excellent and really did taste like a better Big mac.

Over the past week I’ve been lucky enough to have Meggrolls twice.
The first time was at the Unilocal Fire & Ice ball where I had half of a Mac + Cheese with Roasted Brussels Sprouts (sounds like a weird combo but it was delicious, my fav sample of the event). They also had their Big Megg (think of a Big Mac) and a Poblano Chorizo. I didn’t try either of these but my friends sampled both and really enjoyed them as well.
Just a few days later my work was hosting an event and one of the food trucks cancelled last minute… I gave the Meggrolls contact info to my coworker and they were able to come in and save the day! They had the Big Megg and Buffalo Chicken rolls on the truck that day. I’m a veggie so unfortunately I wasn’t able to have one this time, but my coworkers really enjoyed them, especially the Big Megg.
On the food truck they offer two halves for $ 5 and you could pick one of each kind (at least at my work event you could).
These are much larger than a traditional eggroll, more like the size of a burrito. Two halves is definitely filling! The toppings are rolled in (what I assume is) a giant eggroll wrapper and deep fried. After cooking they’re sliced in half and the cold toppings are applied to the cut ends (sauce or lettuce or whatever). Even though they’re deep fried they’re not overly heavy/​greasy.
So, if you see the truck in your neighborhood I definitely recommend trying a Meggroll!

5 stars for the eggrolls at the Unilocal Fire & Ice Ball. I could have done without the honey (took a lot of effort to wash that off my hands and avoid getting it on my suit), but otherwise the eggroll was excellent!

The pictures are somewhat misleading. The eggrolls are much bigger than you’d expect, two should be more than filling for most. You also get a drink or chips with any order, fairly good value.

I’m digging Meggrolls. Found them at Ballston, was intrigued by the concept and strong reviews.
Simple menu, they have three types of egg rolls, and your order will include two. You can get different ones or two of the same. You can then have either a bag of chips, or a water. Easy right?
The egg roll shell is a bit heavy, but this isn’t haute cuisine, so who cares! I got one BBQ chicken, and one Chorizo. The creamed corn with the chorizo didn’t appeal to me very much, and the Chorizo was just ok. For me the BBQ Chicken however was easily the star. Topped with some cole slaw, the tender chicken smothered in sauce was quite delicious. To my surprise not many Unilocalers talk up the BBQ chicken, their loss!
Next time I’m getting another BBQ chicken and trying another type, perhaps the Gyro?
Great truck, will return.

I had the lunch special, and chose the Buffalo Wing and the Mr. Belvedere. Both were delicious, but the Mr. Belvedere was of the charts. Beware — one of these makes a nice lunch. I ended up giving a co-​worker half of each roll. The people in the truck were extremely nice, and the egg rolls were freshly cooked, but didn’t take a long time.

This is the kind of truck that I love, one that takes a «normal» item and puts a unique and delicious spin on it. Additionally, the food is served hot and fresh by a friendly and gregarious team.
I’ve been quite a few times and have never been disappointed. For those of you intimidated by the price $ 6 each or $ 11 for the lunch combo (2 rolls with Asian Style Vinegar Slaw on the side), realize that these are not your average size egg rolls. Each roll is easily the size of a small burrito and two makes for a filling lunch, even for a man with a healthy appetite like me.
Meggrolls has an ever rotating and evolving menu with a large variety of fillings, and each day at least three are offered from the truck. Over time I’ve tried the BigMegg (like a Big Mac Cheeseburger in a roll), the Chorizo Poblano (my fave and delicious, with a bit of a kick!), Buffalo Wing (topped with your choice of Blue Cheese or Ranch), 4 Cheese Mac with Shrimp (topped with parm), Gyro, Cordon Blu (chicken ham and cheese yumminess), and Pulled Pork (BBQ goodness).
I’ve been wanting to try one of the MeggFast (breakfast) rolls and the Mr. Belvedere (think loaded burger with bacon, blue cheese, caramelized onions, and more!) but haven’t had a chance yet! So, I guess I will just have to keep going back when they are in Ballston for more food and a chat!

We used MeggRolls for our wedding this fall. We did it at an old barn and they were one of three food trucks. All of our guest loved all of the 5 rolls so much. They are still talking about the rolls. The big meg and the poblano chili were our favorites, Megg and her partner are so professional and responsive and they make amazing food. We went to them a few times before the wedding and they always took the time to talk to us. So so so delicious, would recommend them for any event

Calling these egg rolls simply does not do justice to the level of deliciousness Meggrolls creates.

Meggrolls hits up the courthouse area one day a week and it is the best day of my week. they take the best meals you can think of and wrap them up in a large wonton wrapper. With a wide variety of flavors and styles Meggrolls are the best quick lunch you can get in northern va, they have a good twitter and facebook presence. so you can find them fairly easy and you will not be disappointed you will be addicted.

Meggrolls caters! I had the distinct pleasure to try the chorizo poblano Meggroll at a local event and it was fabulous! Friends had the cordon blue and the Bigg Megg and both raved about their choices. Our display was right after the parking lot where Megg was set up so the handiwipes we brought to give out were definitely needed!

Staff are incredibly friendly and helpful. My disappointment was paying $ 6 for a slice, maybe two of corned beef for my Reuben… the rest was all ‘roll’ (and a side of coleslaw). All was delicious, but I only tasted the beef in 3 bites, that’s all. I’m still hungry. Great option if you want an appetizer. Happy to see choices vary, shows they only serve fresh!

I’m a fan, indeed (the purest 4-​star definition).
For all fellow newbs to Meggrolls, the menu changes and 3 of the 26 Meggs are available. Today was the Reuben (Traditional or turkey), the Chorizo Poblano, and the Chicken Alfredo. I opted for a Reuben and a Chorizo Poblano (see photo). I thought 1 wouldn’t be enough for a satisfying lunch, but I was wrong. Cost was $ 11 for 2, $ 6 if you only wanted 1. I think the BEST option is to bring a friend and go halfsies on all 3.
Reuben was zingy zesty, pretty amazed. Chorizo Poblano has a nice flavor combination with lingering spice on the tongue. Slaw had more flavor than I thought a slaw could have, very fresh.
Oh, I’ll be back.

A Ruben in a crisp, crunchy egg roll or Philly Cheese oozing with egg roll goodness. Insanity you say! Well then fit me for a straight jacket, because these yummy morsels of egg roll delight burst with fusion awesomeness. Basically what Meg has created is an egg roll that contain any delicacy you can imagine. Do you have a hankering for tex mex? Well she’s got you covered. Want some gooey Mac and Cheese in your egg roll? No, problem. Meggrolls serves up a cheesy egg roll that would make your grandmother smile.
For a long time, I had to search for Meggrolls (they would occasionally pop up at Chadwick’s as a guest appetizer or appear at other Meggrolls events), but no more. Yes, Meggrolls has a food truck and the Alexandria community is about to open its doors to food trucks which is great news for all lovers of food trucks and Meggrolls. Soon these little powerhouses of flavor will be bringing smiles to local foodies faces as much as they have to those lucky enough to catch them at an event
The only problem I ever have with Meggrolls is that I just can’t decide between all of the different choices… that is why I pretty much make create my own little Meggroll smörgåsbord every time.
