Diners talk about Imelda’s like a lucky find on the road—literally, since it’s a food truck—and a spot they keep coming back to for the classics. The lumpia gets a ton of love for being hot, crunchy, and savory, often stealing the show even when folks also order chicken adobo and pancit. Many say the adobo is tender and juicy with that just-right, homey flavor, and the pancit hits those comforting, nostalgic notes. Others branch out and rave about pork BBQ, tempura shrimp, and even goto that’s seasoned just right. Portions are solid, prices feel fair (about $10 a plate), and the combo plates like #4 and #5 get frequent shout-outs.
People also highlight how friendly and welcoming the owners are—Aldwin and Imelda get named personally in a few stories—and how quickly food comes out hot and fresh. Regulars mention they swing by weekly because the quality is consistent, and groups say larger lunch orders were handled smoothly. It’s a straightforward setup geared toward quick takeout, so the focus stays on flavor and speed. A few diners mention discovering there’s dessert only after ordering, so sweets might not be front and center, but the consensus is clear: folks come for the lumpia, pancit, and adobo—and leave planning their next visit.
