Truk-N-Yaki

Excellent! Spicy chicken burrito was a big hit at SEMA. Hope you expand to So Cal soon.

Apparently just having a food truck is, in and of itself, virtue enough. No need to serve high end food, just having a grill on wheels. Mobile food is where it’s at, amirite?
This is about as phoned in of a representation of Japanese food as I’ve seen. The wraps are «Japanese burritos», which means about half of the food you get in a plate stuffed into a shell. The «Mas» hot sauce is awful and the teriyaki not much further behind. Rice is not so hot and none of the cups seem to fit well, so sure, spill that sauce all over yourself. What the Hell, it’s Vegas, right? All the extra expense is because it’s so cool and all…
So, if overcooked ribeye and vegetables predominantly high in onions, yet without any actual cooking technique, are your thing, here you go. Look no further.

They’ve been around for almost two years, but I only just tried this local truck today at the overpriced Great American Foodie Fest. (Not entirely my choice, so don’t judge.)
Truk-​N-​Yaki bills itself as somewhat of a Japanese steakhouse on wheels. They offer a simple menu of rice plates and burritos, with the same protein options for each: chicken, shrimp, and ribeye.
My mom thought that the ribeye burrito ($ 12 at this event) sounded relatively interesting out of the available foods at Foodie Fest, so we got it. It was conveniently sliced in half on the diagonal and had a medium-​spicy sauce on the side.
The burrito was hot and pretty rich in flavor, the protein portion was sufficient, the ribeye was meaty yet tender and the shell was crispy. The sauce was nice but not essential. I enjoyed it overall, but the flavors weren’t mindblowing and the portion was very modest.
I liked them, but this could’ve easily been a 3-​star review if they’d been slightly more stingy with the meat. Maybe I’ll try them again after I’ve explored the rest of the local Asian truck scene.

Wow, why haven’t I tried this sooner?! Life was beautiful at the «Life is Beautiful» festival simply after taking one bite of this food truck’s Japanese Burrito.
Think chicken teriyaki wrapped up into a burrito. The chicken was perfect in here. I’m talking super flavorful, tender, and moist. My wife compared it to eating the from the best Chicken and Rice halal dish in NYC! That says a lot!
The burrito was so good and the food truck will be something I’ll be constantly tracking down anywhere in Las Vegas. Definitely looking forward to trying their other meat selections as well as their Teriyaki bowls.
If you haven’t came across this gem yet, I suggest you do something about that now! It’s really that good!

Had their teriyaki chicken burrito tonight at the Las Vegas Speedway. So delicious and filling. Wish they were in LA! Friendly service and their homemade teriyaki sauce and spicy sauce are just right. Not overly salty. All fresh ingredients I was told. It tasted like it too. Delicious.

Got the ribeye Japanese burrito from this truck at world market today. Tasty food, incredible sauces, and the house made sauces were the slam! On point! Will be looking for this truck in the future!

Ordered a chicken burrito ($ 8) between class periods and they made an immediate loyal fan. While there was a lot of rice, the sauce added enough flavor to make up for it. The mix of onions, zucchini, and mushrooms is a definite favorite for both texture and taste. There was an included cup of sauce that added heat and a hint of sweetness, though it was a bit hard to dip without spilling rice. It’s hibachi in a tortilla, and that’s pretty much all I could ask for out of lunch.
My only issues were the limited drink selection (water, Sprite, and Pepsi) and that the chicken was a bit gristly. Everything was delicious and served quickly.

I was looking for something different to eat at other than Lucky’s and spotted this food truck outside the LVCC during CES. The menu looked interesting and I decided to give the ribeye burrito ($ 13) a try.
They have rice plates with your choice of beef, shrimp, or chicken that comes w/​fried rice and veggies. You can also roll any of those up into a burrito for a couple dollars less. Even though I enjoyed my burrito, the meat to rice ratio was 1:4 and after a couple bites of getting just mouthfuls of rice, I tore the burrito apart and finished it with a fork. The sauce they put in it is a creamy, savory sauce that really made the burrito. Also grab the hot sauce for a little kick!
Next time, I’ll probably try one of the plates since they seem to have more meat!

Went to there truck at Ces had a huge line so I was excited, took 35 minuets to come out and they got my order wrong! They got me a new plate fast and I think they hooked me up with extra meet. Beef was okay nothing special shrimp was good not over cooked. Fried rice tasty but little undercooked. Wasn’t to original but meat was done right. I would go back if there wasn’t a wait.

Was at valvatine rabbit for a drink with some friends and all of a
Sudden this awesome looking food truck rolled up. I see food trucks a lot in Hawaii and LA but wow! this one got the whole bar to unload oitside! People came in talking about the food and how good it was. I let the line die down a bit then headed out to try it. Was recommended the Japanese buritto by there very friendly cashier. Wow this buritto was like no other burito I have had. Sooo bomb!!! A must have

Had to give 3 stars since the rice was sorta hard and tasted old. Sucks. I do have to give mad props to the ribeye. It was delicious and tender. The sauce wasn’t too bad either.
I’d definitely try it again, just in hopes that the rice is a bit more fresh.
I’ll try the burrito next time.

Sunset Park’d event and the Japanese Burrito sounded good and could have been better. I ordered the Burrito with ribeye and it only took a few minutes. If you remember the old Wendy’s commercial with the old woman saying repetitively «where’s the beef» this burrito would be perfect for that commercial. About 90 percent rice the veggies and ribeye are just a few chunks in each half. You definitely gets bites with no meat. Flavors were good and the sauce had a little spice to it but not worth the $ 11 they charge. Now I know why there was no line!

lots of rice in the burrito. not much meat. it was kind of bland unless you put some hot sauce on the burrito. maybe i’ve been eating too salty lately??? very cool concept though

Just had their beef and prawn Japanese burrito at the Las Vegas Foodie Fest… It was absolutely delicious! The sweet sauce that they make is to die for– I wish they sold it! Definitely exceeded my expectations :) will absolutely eat at this truck again!

These guys were on campus (UNLV) yesterday. I ordered a shrimp plate which was soooo freakin’ delicious. My only issue was the small amount of house sauce that I got. I mean the little container had maybe 2 teaspoons in it which was barely enough for a third of my plate. They could have at least filled the container with sauce. Other than that, the dish was very flavorful with ample shrimp.

Glad to see Truknyaki added to the rotation of food trucks at UNLV. Added some much needed change to the line-​up that has been there in semesters past. Food was good — I had the chicken burrito — was tasty but a little heavy on the rice. They only have 3 options — ribeye, chicken or shrimp and either plate of burrito.
Biggest problem though was the price. $ 9 for a chicken burrito. Prices only go up from there. For a few bucks cheaper I can get Chipotle or Café Rio with similar quality.
I could see myself going again, but for the price it wouldn’t be more than once a semester/

Wow! Absolutely amazing food for a reasonable price! Thank you for coming to punk rock bowling, you guys are amazing! The Japanese Burrito and the Chicken Plate were both perfectly done! Great job guys!

I have to admit — I was a little bit nervous about shrimp from a food truck. Boy oh boy was I wrong! Yesterday I got the shrimp teriyaki plate (served with veggies and fried rice). The shrimp was nothing less than delectable — perfectly cooked, plump and delicious. The fried rice and veggies likewise had amazing flavor. I will definitely order from this truck again.
Also, they have a really interesting sounding Asian burrito with similar ingredients that i really want to try…

Had Truknyaki at the Sunset Park food truck event.
Amazing food.
Cooked to order. I guess they are pretty popular, the line was long and due to the fact it is prepared to order there was a wait for food. Worth the wait. Their custom sauce was to die for. I have never had food of this quality from a food truck.

Officially our favorite food truck in LV! Quality of food and service is incredible! They had combination plates and a fusion special! Wish they were around more often though. Currently they are downtown every second Saturday (6pm-​1am) of the month at the event called,“StrEATS” and on Wednesday (10pm-​½am) they are at the corner of Valley View and Russell parked outside of an adult book store. They’re ribeye combination plate with fried rice is to die for!!! Also loved the shrimp and kimchee fried rice, the special burrito, and the guava cake!!! The two sauces they give you on the side are so tasty. One is like a teriyaki sauce and the other is a chili sauce. Please try this delicious food because you don’t know what you’re missing!
