Maybe I hit it on a bad day, but there are enough other trucks out there that I’m not raring to go back.

Thumbs up to Takorean.

I paid 7 bucks for a burrito that was snack size. Decent taste but I could make it at home. I was underwhelmed.

Clever concept, but mediocre execution — the meat had too little flavor. It was not worth waiting in line for 15 minutes.

As the two other posters allude, though, some kinks. My pet peeves:
1) Standing in line for food sucks. I wish I could eat this more often but unless it changes its name to “Greek Deli” I can’t really conscience the time it take to get food at this always popular truck. (my problem, not theirs! more power to them for being so popular)
2) Maybe I’m too much of a purist, but there is way too much Sriacha on Korean food in the district. I wish they would make an option for good old Gochujjang (Korean red pepper sauce)–that would really kick it up a notch!

I’d been meaning to try it for a while but long lines, no show, etc. got in the way. Finally did though. Unfortunately, I think my expectations were too high. Korean BBQ can be wonderful, tangy, spicey stuff. Although the tacos (I got one of each with the works) were very solid, they were not exceptional. Frankly, they were weak on flavor and punch. Clearly, good, but not great. Oh well.
