Picture this, a food truck, bold and bright, promising the fiery allure of Indian cuisine. A line of hopefuls waiting, their mouths watering at the thought of tender chicken drenched in rich, spiced sauces and naan so fluffy it could double as a cloud. Now take that image, crumple it up, and toss it into the nearest dumpster fire because what I got from this truck was nothing short of a culinary scam.
The main attraction, the chicken curry, wasnât just disappointing, it was borderline criminal. Two tiny pieces of chicken. TWO. Iâve seen chicken nuggets with more ambition than what this dish dared to present. Sitting in an oily excuse for a curry, the sauce was a sad, flavorless slurry. No spice, no richness, no life. It tasted like someone had boiled some cream and added a halfhearted pinch of turmeric as an afterthought.
And then came the so-called "chili chicken." A bunch of bland, slightly sweet bell peppers overwhelmed the dish, with barely a shred of chicken to be found. This wasnât chili chicken, it was an overpriced bell pepper salad with a confusing name.
The portions of everything were laughable, served in tiny cups that looked more suited for a side of dipping sauce than a meal. The naan, that was supposed to be the savior of the meal, the trusty sidekick that swoops in to scoop up curry and deliver it straight to flavor town, was instead burnt, yet somehow managed to be weirdly chewy, like someone had toasted a piece of old rubber. It had no flavor, no soul, no reason to exist.
The entire experience was a disaster, and the price was the final insult. I felt like Iâd been duped, paying premium prices for what was essentially bland mush served in toddler-sized portions. For the same cost, I could have gone home, bought enough groceries to feed a family of 10 and cooked a feast that actually had spices and flavor. By the time I finished, my wallet was lighter, my stomach was still growling, and my faith in humanity was shaken. How does this food truck still exist? Who is eating here and thinking, Yes, this is what Indian food should taste like? Itâs a mystery, a travesty, a mobile monument to mediocrity.
If youâre even remotely considering stopping by this truck, save yourself the heartbreak. Go home, buy some spices, and make your own curry. It will taste better, cost less, and wonât leave you questioning your life choices. This wasnât just bad, it was a betrayal. A bland, overpriced betrayal on four wheels....
   Read moreThe brothers food truck was great. We got chicken tikka Marsala and curry chicken for dinner. They gave us enough rice and the main order to fill a dinner plate. I would have liked to have a couple more chunks of meat in our order, but the food was delicious so I overlooked that part. They gave us naan bread as a side to our order as well. The amount of food in the 2 orders with bread were enough to satisfy 2 people for the evening. While we waited they gave us a complementary cup of laasi, which is a yogurt based Indian drink. I had never had it but it was damn tasty. It was mango yogurt and cardamom. I donât like mango but this was so different I liked it. The food was amazing. Very tasty not bland like some of the other food trucks weâve been to. The service was great. Friendly people willing to talk and laugh. My original order was incorrect, and instead of letting me walk away they got my attention and corrected it. It took slightly longer to get our food than most people would wait at a drive through, but I watched them make everything through the windows of the trailer, nothing was made ahead of time and warmed up. Itâs good to see a food business provide variety in Fallon, and not just add to the pizza and Mexican restaurants we already have. I would recommend going here, I will definitely be going back ââSomeone else put in their review about being in a sketchy parking lot, but the trailer is in the parking lot of the owners store on the main strip in town, itâs well lit from lights on the trailer and from the store. I feel this is a good placement by him, he doesnât need the permit to park it on his own property and while you wait you can go inside and buy drinks for the family whether it be juices sodas or adult drinks. -thereâs nothing sketchy...
   Read moreThe samosa chaat plate was very good, maybe the best I've eaten. The tikka masala was a bit too mild for my taste, I forgot to specify spice level and they didn't ask. The garlic naan didn't seem super fresh, kind of rubbery.
Prices seem pretty ambitious for a food truck, on par with my favorite Indian buffet in Reno. $17+tip gets you a pint cup of entree and a similar quantity of basmati rice. Naan is not included at that price.
It's a new business, I hope they get it dialed in, I'd love to give it another shot in a few weeks. The people were very friendly and I want to see them succeed, Fallon needs more culinary variety.
Dear owners, if you're reading this; I personally think if you made a tikka masala wrap/Indian gyro type thing, price it at $10-$12, get the wait time down to 10 minutes, it'd sell like crazy. People go to food trucks for turnaround time and price, and I think if you played to those strengths you could be...
