This unique Mexican-Asian fusion joint started as one of the top food trucks in California, but Komodo's bold-flavored cuisine became so popular that a brick-and-mortar location was opened to keep pace with demand. Any of the tacos, burritos or rice bowls are sure to satisfy, but one particularly filling option is the Brutus Salad. You won't find a bit of lettuce in this "salad"; instead, crispy fried Tater Tots are topped with tender steak and jalapeno aioli.

This tiny spot with bar-style seating fills up fast, but its decadent French dishes make the wait well worth it. Try the croque madame, which is layered with buttery bread, Gruyere-laced bechamel sauce, tender ham, and even more sauce and cheese, then finished with a golden egg on top.

Though it’s named the House of Pies, diners don’t head here just for dessert; the Country Fried Steak is a must-try main dish at this spot. The steak is dipped in a buttermilk bath, coated in flour and deep-fried until it turns golden brown. A creamy gravy completes this indulgent creation.

Head to this spot for a hearty breakfast: a burrito stuffed with scrambled eggs, sauteed onions, peppers and tomatoes. This beauty comes topped with chipotle salsa and super-melty cheese. Prefer your breakfast at dinner? Try the Pasta Mama dish: a deliciously simple mix of pasta and scrambled eggs.

Aarti Sequeira heads here for the Warm Sticky Toffee Cake that has her hooked. Chopped dates add both sweetness and moisture to this buttery cake, which is baked for an hour, then drenched in toffee sauce and finished with mascarpone cream. This comforting dessert “tastes like cuddles,” Aarti says.

Fried ice cream is serious business at this food truck, which follows a four-day process to make each creamy-crunchy treat. Fans flock here for desserts like the Frach’s Original: a cake ball filled with vanilla ice cream, coated with crispy tempura, and topped with caramel sauce and whipped cream.

Carnivores and veggie lovers alike are sure to find a pie to satisfy at this pizzeria, which serves both beefy and meatless varieties. Actress Judy Greer’s go-to is the Greek Pizza, which comes smothered in zesty tomato sauce, mozzarella and feta. Greek oregano and black olives round out the pie.
