Tiki Truck

Meats for the gyros and tacos include chicken adobo, pulehu steak, and Thai curry grilled pork. Spotting Tiki at Taco’ako Tuesdays, I ordered one of Abe’s signature gyros, the Twisted Gyro ($ 6): lettuce, tomato, cucumber, cilantro, and choice of meat (I got the chicken adobo). Abe topped this gyro with his house-​made «crack sauce,» his version of tzatziki (but not having the cool yogurt and dill-​like qualities). Abe also added some sriracha to the gyro, basically making me all giddy to eat the damn thing.
I loved the creamy crack sauce. It has a sweet tone to it, as opposed to a cooling tzatziki sauce. Sriracha = win… enough said there, right? The pita was perfectly grilled on the flattop, pliable, yet firm, with a golden-​brown outside. That pita encased fresh, vibrant vegetables. Abe added a bit of sweetness to the flavorful, juicy chicken, balancing any vinegar used in traditional adobo.
Abe will offer specials at Tiki Truck, such as a gyro and a taco for $ 8, or three tacos for about $ 7. Check out Tiki Truck ASAP and try that Twisted Gyro!

I decided to give Tiki truck a try again at Taco’ako Tuesday since I noticed that there were selling different items on the menu. My friend who ordered their hotdog with a lot of different additions liked it, and when I saw a man eating a gyros, he mentioned that it was from the Tiki Truck:
Twisted Gyro — 4 stars — for $ 6 + tax ($ 6.30 total), you get a choice of steak or pork. I chose the steak and got good sized gyro with very flavorful grilled steak, cilantro, lettuce, cucumbers and some other veggies topped with a mayo type sauce that all blended well together. The bread that held it all together was also grilled so it was warm with a crispy texture to it.
Service — 3 stars — I had to wait a bit because it’s cooked to order, but it wasn’t very long. Only thing that I felt uncomfortable with and thought it was strange was that when he called my name, he asked for my last name because he said he recognized me somewhere, which I don’t think I have ever met before. I know that I have a common face, so a lot of people always mistaken me as someone they’ve met or seen before, but because I was blasted and remembered by a lunch truck owner on Unilocal,I like to be somewhat anonymous. But in all, being both the cashier and cook, I give this handsome young local boy credit for working hard with a great attitude today.
