Curbside Cravings

had them cater my end-​of-​year staff appreciation, and they delivered in spades! price per person was fair, considering it was all inclusive (appetizer, entrée, drink) with multiple options. and it was neat to have the team chatting with each other out in the fresh air as they ordered their food. thank you, curbside cravings, for helping us close the year with camraderie and scrumptiousness!

I hired the truck recently to cater lunch for a film shoot I was running. The entire experience was absolutely wonderful! Rhea was very helpful working with our constraints and ensuring that we had quality, delicious food at our event.
I had a pork sandwich off the truck– and it was delicious! The bread was soft and sweet, the pork was tender and tangy, and the veggies were fresh and crisp. I wish I’d had seconds! I will definitely be using them again and again, and I can’t wait to try their restaurant.

This is an unusual rating for a food truck for me, but this truck totally warrants it, IMHO.
My favorites:
***Daing Fish Balls (This is my FAVORITE, but I’m already a fan of Daing): marinated boneless fish, deep fried served w/​garlic fried rice & pickled slaw (the garlic fried rice & picked slaw is awesome, too!)
Tocino Burger: grilled sweetened pork patty, cilantro, tomato & egg, mango-​bell pepper slaw w/​garlic aioli spread
Tapa Burger: grilled marinated beef patty, cilantro, tomato & egg, mango-​bell pepper slaw w/​garlic aioli spread
Good: Teriyaki BBQ & Teriyaki Burger, Crispy Lechon Kawali, Tapsilog & Longsilog (if you feel indigestion after this item, that’s normal. haha!)
I love this truck so much, I hired them for a catering event to serve dinner for 65+ people over a 2 hour period and they were timely and able to accommodate everyone. Fantastic!

I tried the tapsilog and it was really good. The serving size is decent for a small price to pay. I wish I had more room to try the rest of their food! Hope to catch them again soon. — late post; this was saved in my draft and never got posted.

Crispy dinuguan, lechon kawali, tocino, tapa burgers!!! Thank you for parking infront of the philippine consulate. Pinoy food made my day! For cheaps too…

I was expecting goodness from Curbside Cravings. Maybe because of what we ordered, not so much. We ran into Curbside Cravings at the Filipino Festival at Grand Park. I’ve seen this food truck many times in Eagle Rock and have always been curious. This food truck is operated by Neri’s Bakery where my family has catered from for years.
We tried the tocino burger, tapa burger, lumpia, and lobster balls. Both burgers were disappointing. Tocino lacked the sweetness and caramelization you typically get. The tapa patty looked and tasted more like a soy veggie patty. Blahhh! I was also hoping to have a runny egg but was fully cooked. The lobster balls were a joke. It’s more like fish balls (fish don’t have balls) but with imitation crab. I only tasted a hint of lobster. Lumpia was good but a bit on the salty side.
I should of ordered their rice entrees which is a no brainer. Prices were raised a bit higher since they were part of the festival. The line wasn’t long but it lagged in the 100 degree heat.
Hopefully, my next experience trying this food truck in the future (if ever) is better.

I had a tocino plate with egg and it was BOMB! So yummy! The plate had a good portion, I was full by the time I finished the whole thing. Egg was cooked just the way I wanted it, sunny-​side up and spill the yolk on the rice. So good… Tocino was good, soft to chew. I love it!
If this was my first plate, then imagine all their other ones! Definitely stop by and get a plate next time you spot their truck around K-​town!

Went here since I forgot my lunch and always had seen this truck out on the street.
After reading so many Unilocal reviews, I decided to go with the Tocino plate.
After waiting for about 10 minutes, they gave me my to go order. I could instantly tell it was packed with food because it was so heavy!
For about $ 8 you get a ton of tocino, a good helping of veggies and a heaping portion of garlic rice. In addition to the great value, everything was delectable. My favorite part was the tocino because of its tender and sweet flavor. It was complimented very well by the rice and was a very filling meal.
Worth checking out if you are in the area and looking to try great Filipino food at a low price point.

I had a bbq chicken burger… I ate it so fast, i forgot to take a picture to share.
This food truck is great. Good food, good people. I even had a chat with one of the owners for a considerable amount of time he was very nice and down-​to-​earth

Pretty good prices. They have a tocino burger which is a pork patty that’s sweet and savory, with some mango slaw on it that will haunt you! Mini egg rolls for an awesome little snack; just a few bucks.
Don’t get me started on their lobster balls, just a few dollars as well.

I had the Tocino Rice Bowl ($ 7) with an order of Lobster balls ($ 3).
The pork was sliced thin, tender and tasty… similar to the chinese bbq pork, that looks red, but a lot better than that. The rice, when doused with the garlic mixture was very good… mix in a little sirachi with that and bingo… perfection.
The lobster balls came with a little tub of spicy/​sweet sauce, which complimented it well.
I will return.

I came here on a lunch break and loved it. The lady was so nice and joyous.

I was stuck in Wilshire trying to renew my passport and was in dire need of food. It was noon time and I was #58 in getting my stuff done, and the ticker was only on #6 for like forever (30mins) so I walked downstairs and found this food truck right outside the door! WIN!
I ordered the Crispy Dinuguan (basically was the crispy lechon in dinuguan sauce).It was freakin’ delicious!!! I’m usually a dinuguan snob and very picky with it, but man. this was a different approach to the dish and I really dig it!
I wish they’d come to OC!

Delicious.
Saw this food truck at an outdoor wrestling event and got the lobster balls and the teriyaki burger— both were SO yummy, and the guy didn’t charge us for our cokes either.
He was super nice, and it make me feel good about being his patron because I could feel the love in what is doing.

Close to my house in Eagle Rock Blvd on Thursdays nights. I’ve been twice already and I have to say that the first time, the Tocilog was indeed off the chain and very tasteful.
The 2^nd time, it was dry over-​cooked and not as juicy, tasteful. Portions were also not what I expected for $ 6.50.
I have to say that it was just ok… just does not compare to making tocino, eggs and garlic rice at home.

First of all, I thought about giving this food truck a three, but then the lady that served was so sweet & friendly which I ended up giving half star for her so technically its a 3.5 stars. :)
My bf & i wanted to get lunch and we run into this food truck right outside the consulate. We both ordered the tapa burger since she recommended to to us and on their menu it showed Unilocal (5-​star ratings), so of course I had to try it.
When it was done cooking and took a bite off of it, it tasted different. not bad different but not good different either. I didnt really taste the seasonings or marination of the tapa burger. so it was ehhh, nothing memorable came out of it. the burger was on a «pandesal» bread and it was so soggy that the burger kinda fell apart.
I wouldnt mind going back this food truck and willing to try their other food that is on the menu! :)
note: $ 6 for the tapa burgers.

I was suprised to really enjoy food from this nondescript truck. Also known as Neri’s, the truck serves filipino food for a good price. The tocino burger was delish — reminded me of Taiwanese sausage in a hamburger patty form. It was pretty large, too. We also got the Crispy Lechon, which came with garlic fried rice. At first, I thought it was regular fried rice until I took a bite. Garlic makes a huge difference — I’m going to do that at home! The pork itself was good, but I didn’t really care much for the slaw. I didn’t eat the shrimp balls but my friend thought they were good deal. This is not for the health conscious!
Cash only.

I don’t ever remember having a «burger» that’s sweet and savory from a food truck. The Tocino Burger fits that flavor profile. I initially wasn’t a fan of the mango bell pepper slaw BUT I was told it goes with the burger and I really loved it and it brought the whole burger together. They even bake their own bread. That’s what I’m talking about!
Don’t sleep on Neri’s Curbside Cravings. I know they’re at the Artwalk Food Truck fest every month if your downtown.

Great fillipino food! The people were friendly and very knowledgeable.
We went with the Lumpia, empinada, lobster balls. They were all so good! Great customer service always makes the food that much better.

I’ve been a huge fan of Neri’s Restaurant for at least 10 years as they have been a fan favorite at the annual Festival of Philippine Arts and Culture in San Pedro. Every September, I look forward to enjoying Neri’s fabolous BBQ sticks. When i heard about Neri’s Curbside Cravings food truck, I was equally excited to try them out. However, their usual spots are a bit far for me but I always check their FB page to see if they are ever nearby.
Luckily, I was able to try them out at the IE Food Truck Festival. As soon as the gates opened up, I rushed to their truck. My fiancé and I ordered lobster balls and their special sisig with garlic rice. Verdict? WOW. The sisig was great– great crunch from the pork belly, great flavor profile of sour/​sweet/​crunchy from the fresh atchara (lightly picked red onion, bell peppers, and jalapeño). The garlic fried rice was done to perfection— nice subtle tones of fried garlic. Love it!
We also loved the great service by Rhea (or was it Maria?). She was very helpful in explaining all the dishes and her enthusiasm for her food was great. She loves her dishes and loves sharing that with others. Awesome service!
