Underdog has managed to win over someone like me who isn't a vegan and typically not a big fan of vegan food. Yet, it stands out as one of my favorites, and I find myself ordering from them frequently.One of the things you will notice as soon as you approach the place is how clean and net their food truck is.Their menu features burgers, corn dogs, fries, and more, all with a twist and a variety of flavorful options.Among my personal favorites are the Goblin's Club and Jalapeno Popper Corn Dog. The corn dogs are notably large, with a batter that's never oily, always maintaining a tender and flavorful quality.The Animal fries, a perfect side to burgers and corn dogs, are never overly salty, and the generous portions of golden, perfectly cooked fries are a must-try.The Classic Burger and The Jesse Burger are standout choices, boasting substantial sizes with soft and fluffy buns. The sauces and flavors elevate them above your typical burgers - vegan or not.What sets Underdog apart is not just their delicious offerings but also the friendly and accommodating team behind the scenes. They are pleasant individuals dedicated to their advocacy of normalizing delicious plant-based food.In my opinion, they are doing an excellent job of offering delicious comfort food classics that can be responsibly enjoyed for generations. This is a business that I will continue to support.

I've tried Underdog on two separate occasions, and their food is consistently delightful! From the excellent banh mi hot dog to their fabulous burgers, Underdog offers something that can cater to most anyone's craving. The food options are quite creative and filling which still being affordably priced. The owner is super cool, and I love that they're all vegan so you don't have to modify anything. They also offer specials which are amazing as well. Note that they have modified their location recently and are no longer strictly at the gas station. Follow them on social media to find out where they'll be. Our favorite current spot they pop up is at Seek Beer which has ample seating to enjoy Underdog's wonderful food alongside a delicious beer.

We were so looking forward to trying this place after reading all the amazing yelp reviews. After coming back from out of state hubby took me here as a surprise. This was a Sunday when they were parked in North Park by a few brew houses. The selection looked great and we each ordered two dogs apiece and split a bag of fries. We each got a Danger Dog and the NYC. The Danger Dog was great. Lots of flavor and the peppers were not hot. I can see why it is a guest favorite. The fries were enough for both of us and tasted great. The disappointment came with the NYC dog. It really lacked flavor considering it had sauerkraut on it and spicy brown mustard. It was the blandest sauerkraut I have ever tasted. The service was great. The staff were really friendly and helpful. 4 dogs and an order of fries came to $43.00. Slightly higher than expected. They do not sell drinks. We do not drink beer or soda and that was mainly the choice where they were parked. One of the breweries did allow us glasses of water. There was plenty of seating. We didn't have far to park and walk. I really wanted to give better than a 3 star review but I will have to come back and try some other menu items that can get my review stars higher.

I'm... Back again to order my favorite CornDogs & french fries, now my other new fav is the hush puppies too. I've always been a huge hush puppies fan and typically have found them at Louisiana food joints , So I am stoked they added these to their menu . I absolutely love this food truck . I am happy to announce new menu items. Several types of chicken sandwiches were added . I'll have to go for something new next visit and step out of comfort zone . It's just I literally crave their corn dogs, it's like childhood and the Fair all in one bite . These corn dogs are so filling and satisfying . They have very kind courteous service all the time. Mostly I still see the owners working hard serving up their food . This vegan food is so fabulous . I like my comfort food like most of us do but only with out the " animal Meat " at times . Vegan food has come such a long way and is so very creative here at Underdog Food Truck . I eat about 60/40 % meatless options so i'm not fully totally committed to vegan lifestyle but here I am so satisfied with the quality and portion sizes it's a top choice for me for sure, literally to often ( lol) . The food here is fresh . I'm so particular about anything fried not tasting heavy or oily ! I know they must use an oil that has gotta be fresh because all the times i've eaten here everything comes out golden fried never greasy. Today I found them parked the @ Brewery igniter building , 3052 El Cajon Blvd . I fully Support local small businesses that's where the treasures are in this town. Super cute spot with at least 3 different breweries . So convenient and lots of seating indoor/outdoor available . You can place an order either from the truck or the menu available at a brewery. side note Tuesday & Thursday they are still at the Texas St. location on El Cajon . Closes at 8 usually but I hear possible extended hours may be happening soon . I'll check back on that when or if it happens .

1st time here. I saw a few videos on IG and Yelp reviews about this food truck. We ordered a Korean corn dog, regular corn dog and classic hot dog. The corn dogs batter was delicious... crispy brown outside yet soft, inside with a stadium size hot dog inside. Average price. No seating, food truck only. Great service. Overall positive experience

Best vegan food truck in San Diego!! The owner of the business shared his and his wife's journey with us and their passion shows through the quality of vegan product they use. There are a ton of low quality vegan foods out there but that's not the case with underdog which is why I never turn down eating there. Food and service was amazing as always!

Pretty unexpected but cool spot at the corner of El Cajon and Texas. Underdog can be found at the Peking lot of a gas station. You can't miss it since it's bright red and HS a tent on the side for customers to eat under (along with a table, but no chairs)I ordered a chili cheese hot dog and thought it was okay. The dog itself was good and I enjoyed the chili, and also loved how fresh the green onions were. I do wish the cheese was melted and that the bun was more cooked. I'm definitely open to trying another item from Underdog, though!If you're someone who enjoys their hot dog buns on the toastier side, I suggest asking them to make it extra toasted here.

Amazing vegan eats at an amazing value and price! The service and staff are fantastic. Their pop ups are great too. I love seeing them at Seek Brewing in North Park on Sundays. Whether you are vegan or not, the food is delicious and worth a try.
