Upper Cut

Great burger, nothing more needs to be said.Yelp said my review was too short so I will say it again great burger!

I LOVE BRISKET so I was salivating for this bowl. I opted for a full serving with extra eggs and all grilled vegetables as the base. Total was $26.50 but unfortunately, the brisket was not what I'm used to enjoying. These were very lean, on the sweet side and didn't have that smokiness you normally associate with brisket. A friend ordered crab cakes that were a special from the food truck with candied jalapeño. You only get two so it's basically a snack. The service was friendly though.

Just wanted to share my recent experience at Upper Cut food truck. I was really looking forward to trying out their mini cut slider and the chipao slider, along with some garlic Parmesan fries. Gotta say, I was a bit let down. The wagyu slider was juicy, but it lacked flavor and sauce. The garlic Parmesan fries weren't as described - not much garlic flavor, too greasy, and barely any Parmesan. AND the fries cost more than the sliders, which seemed a bit off to me. ($7 for half order, about same size tray as in and out burger, but fries were not that heaping full).Now, the chipao slider was a whole different story. It didn't look like the photo at all - the chicken was chunky and not crispy as shown/advertised nor was it spicy. It was juicy but lacked flavor, and I couldn't taste the bourbon glaze as described.All in all, the food was just okay for me. I might give it a pass next time I'm in the area.

This.place. Is. Money.Healthy food truck. Yes please! Try the various rice or salad bowls with soups vide chicken or your other favorite. Just freaking amazing quality. Delicious. And you don't feel like a bloated corpse after eating it. Delicious. 5000 stars

Believe it or not, this is the most healthy brisket dish I ever had from a food truck.Upper Cut is located in the Sparks Social area near the Mission Bay Hospital area.  Free street parking is not possible... but there are paid lots everywhere in the area.Today I decided to get the Brisket Bowl, Full size.  You get sliced lean brisket with Grilled Veggies and steamed broccoli over a bed of brown rice.The brisket was smokey and tender.  I love the nuttiness of the brown rice,  The rice absorbs the flavors from the veggies,  The bowl is sweet and a bit of spicy from the jalapenos.  Not sure how it can be nutty, smokey, spicy and sweet at the same time.  The only thing I would have liked is a bit of fat, that I expect from brisket.The cost of the dish is a bit high for what you get.

Got the poutine, which comes with duck gravy and cheese curds. At $9 for half an order of fries, this is one of the more expensive food trucks at Spark Social. But service was friendly, and I even got upsold on adding bacon and candied jalapenos onto my order. The fries were pretty good, but the gravy was probably the best part of the poutine. It added just the right amount of silky mouthfeel to the fries. The cheese curds weren't squeaky, and the candied jalapenos were a tad too sweet. But the saltiness of the bacon brought it all back in balance. The rest of the food looks interesting enough for a revisit as well.

tried one of each of the sliders. had varying levels of feelings for them. a lot had soggy buns which wasn't ideal. i think the plain wagyu held up the best but it was still lacking in flavor. the garlic parm fries were not as crispy as they could've been.

Here for UCSF visit, and went to Spark Social food truck center for a quick bite.This one hit the spot for a quick & small bite (sliders and fries). Sliders were very good, and fries were normal. Not the cheapest but could be worse. Overall it worked for us.

I discovered Upper Cut during my first visit to Spark Social, where I was immediately taken aback by the sheer variety of food trucks they had. What first drew me to them was their french fry offerings, namely their poutine. Their poutine is advertised as crispy coated fries with cheese curds, duck gravy, garnished with green onions. Even before looking around at the other food trucks, my group and I promptly placed an order for the poutine. To say we enjoyed the poutine would be an understatement. The fries were crispy and golden, while the duck gravy was flavorful and to die for. It was so good I would have ordered a second helping for myself, but managed to exert some restraint so I could sample some of their other items. To round out our meal we went with one of each of their signature slides: the Oinkster, Chipao, Double Down, and Mini Cut (the menu on their website has detailed descriptions of each). Each slider had a unique flavor profile and it's difficult to say which was our favorite. My two favorites were the Chipao and Mini Cut. The Chipao features a crispy-fried chicken breast with just a hint of spice, which was even palatable for me (despite my near zero spice tolerance). The Mini cut was your classic cheeseburger with waygu beef patty, providing a juicy succulent bite. The protein in the Oinkster is a sous-vide pork shoulder (unfortunately the candied jalapenos was too much for my palate). Last, but not least, the Double Down featured two proteins (sous-vide brisket and wagyu beef patty), a summer slaw, and a sweet-tangy sauce, providing a unique flavorful bite overall. If you happen to make a trip to Spark Social, I definitely recommend giving Upper cut and their flavor-forward food a try!

We visited the city from abroad and stumbled across Upper Cut food truck at Sparks Social. WOW!! We tried the chicken bowl, the mini cut, the poutine fries and crab cakes and it was just amazing. Not the typical food truck...
