It's tough finding something here to nitpick. Really good food. I've tried both the regular and the spicy UFC Club. The heat level for the spicy sandwich is pretty well calibrated. It's like a good medium kick. You can feel it, but it's not too much. Everything on my sandwiches has been on point. The bread is nice. The veggies are fresh. The bacon and spread are tasty. The chicken has been REALLY REALLY good. The breading on the chicken is balanced and just right. Not too crunchy/too much, not too little. All white meat. Juicy. Not dry and not greasy. The sandwich is overall a good size and it hits the spot. I was a little skeptical initially, but it's...worth the price. (Don't make it too expensive in the future though please) I would love to see this place open more often than just Saturday lunches.

Truly great folks who put love into everything they make. Sure I will Eat on Monday but I would continue to order food from them for the rest of the week too. If you need an event catered, this should be your first and only stop to provide your gathering the best food experience.

-Spicy UFC Club: 10/10. The sweetness of the bacon adds a nice touch to the sandwich; bread is wonderful too.

I had them cater my birthday party and they were wonderful! They worked with me on the menu, stayed within my budget, showed up on time, were flexible, and the food tasted wonderful! I might have another party just so they could cater it!

Tried them for the first time on Tuesday afternoon and got their UFC sandwich: crispy fried chicken with maple bacon, tomatoes, lettuce, and sauce . It was $8 but it really was worth it. It wasn't as long as a Vietnamese banh mi sandwich but the size of the chicken piece more than compensated for the smaller length of this sandwich. This is a super crunchy fan's dream of a crispy chicken sandwich with the bacon and lettuce in there. The chicken meat is thick and tasty. The maple bacon is the thick style so hopefully you have some sharp teeth to get through the entire mass of it. One other thing I liked was how understated their truck is. Lately, every food truck I have gone to has the full-on all over paint job with flashy graphical designs and what-not. This one keeps it simple and seems like they are emphasizing the food more than the flash. They definitely have earned a return visit from me. I will probably go with pork belly or the calamari tacos next time around.

10/17/2020My oldest son asked for Tonkatsu yesterday and I couldn't make it out to grab some so we went back for not one but 2 orders for the hubs bday today! Soooo good! Juicy, tender, crunchy pork cutlet between 2 soft white slices of bread. The cabbage slaw and tonkatsu sauce are perfect!Thanks Carol for the 2 Green Onion pretzels to try. My boys loved them! The green onion is very light in flavor. Soft on the inside and good pretzel shell. Wishing everyone a great weekend!

My sis in law told me about it, my Yelp friend wrote prolific reviews about it. I was extremely happy and satisfied with my experience. I ordered two spicy UFC chicken sandwiches, two lettuce wrapped UFCs and a tonkatsu sandwich just to try and two orders of fries. It wasn't cheap. 5 sandwiches and two fries for $82 is something to consider for a lunch truck now pop up restaurant in an industrial strip that was not delivered. I picked it up. That is the only thing I wanted to inform about- it adds up quickly so just make sure you are ok spending a little more. I don't mind when it comes to food especially food that credible sources vouch for. The chicken was crunchy and seasoned with every bite and it was hearty size wise. The spicy chicken left such a good heat and it wasn't overpowering -spices were spot on. Fries had really good seasoning but they were sorta cold and needed to go into the toaster oven- I live 4.5 mi away from the place and this is NOT a complaint- that is just the reality of potatoes and how they behave after being fried and put into a box to steam up for 15 min. The chicken and tonkatsu sandwiches, however, completely retained the crunch and texture. The bread for the tonkatsu was so darn cute-sliced open like a pocket and edges cut off- the pickled veggies they top it with was fresh and had refreshing flavor and texture between the bread and crispy tonaktsu layer. My lettuce wrapped UFC impressed me not just with flavor and portion. It held together after every single bite- other lettuce wrapped burgers are a hot mess with hands completely drenched in sauce and i have to reassemble the mayo mustard catsupy mess and eventually eat it with a fork and knife- thank u for choosing lettuce leaves that actually help hold it together so it can be eaten as a handheld sandwich. I wanted to try their beef burger but it won't be avail for another week or two. One last comment which just sealed the deal was how polite and nice Carol is. She was extremely responsive when I thought the payment glitched out and she texted me back asap and helped sort it out. She was very sweet and even offered to text me to let me know when the burger is avail lol- very kind and sweet when I picked up the food. I bought four desserts, too- but I think they're from a diff company but yah, they're bomb. I am going to recommend this place to all my friends and try my best to see them thru this hot mess of a pandemic by supporting them. Thank you, EOM team.
* = U* = F* = C* = Chicken* = SandoI work for a tech company. Been at this latest one almost 3-years. In lieu of a cafeteria, we get food trucks 5-days a week. Since the moment I stepped foot on this campus, the good word has been: the UFC sandwich, from Eat on Monday, is the best item of food we get delivered. And I mean: that endorsement was ubiquitous. To my retrospective shame: I chose not to heed this advice for almost 3-full years. In general, I'm not a big lunch truck guy. Mostly because, I believe that half the enjoyment of lunch is getting the hell out of the office and leaving campus for an hour or so. As such, I rarely choose to patronize a food truck and typically head to an actual restaurant.But yesterday, an absolute angel (replete with blonde hair and green eyes) walked through our cubicle pods and asked all the cool kids: "Do you want me to pre-order you a UFC sandwich?"Faced with the convenience of a pre-order, coupled with the fact that my usual lunch buddy is on one of his healthy, crash diet fads... and I decided, what the hell. Let's give this allegedly legendary poultry its' day in the sun.My first surprise came in the visual department. Plagued by imagery harvested from a market cornered by Chick-Fil-A, Popeyes, and Wendy's, I simply assumed that the sando would arrive in burger form. Circular patty, sesame seeds, the usual get-up. I was wrong.The UFC sammich rides proudly on a two-handed hoagie roll, roughly 7 inches long. Visible chicken, bacon, and lettuce can be seen poking its' head out from the brown butcher paper it comes wrapped in. The filling peers outward at it's eater, with a glance of unconditional love, like an infant looking up at its' mother.I leaned in and took my first bite, an admitted UFC virgin, so naturally, about 3 co-workers were locked on me, waiting to hear the verdict. My teeth sank into the soft, juicy (what I assume to be, brined) breast fillet. Nobody told me that this sandwich came with a perfectly crispy, thick-cut slice of high quality bacon. The house sauce (sriracha mayo, with what tasted to me like a hint of pickled red pepper) played it's part masterfully. The produce was cool and crisp, the poultry was hot and fresh, the roll was an artisan masterpiece of lightly developed yeast with hydrated stone cut flour. Every single piece of this sandwich joined into a melodic, harmonious chorus. With every chew, I could hear a choir of angels above me singing, "Glory, glory, hallelujah!""This is the best chicken sandwich I've ever had," I instinctively said, in a tone and cadence that can best be described as a lover's moan.As I scanned the room, the world was finally alive for the very first time. Wondrous new colors sprang from the walls and cartwheeled around the room. Rabbits and deer emerged from all corners, as flora and foliage inexplicably grew in rapid fashion all around me. The room began to shake, my office ceiling tore open, and a translucent beam of harvest gold streamed from the deepest pocket of the sky directly down upon the flawlessly executed chicken sando that sat before me.My only regret is that I now know, for an indisputable fact, that life can be this great. Go get you a UFC chicken sando from Eat on Monday. Your life will forever be richer for it.

Had the basic cheeseburger. It was excellent. Fries with their seasoning was very good as well. Counter interaction was pleasant. I would go out of my way to go to this truck.

Hands down the best fried chicken sandwich I've ever had. Sorry Popeye's. They catering lunch at my job one day and boy they were amazing. I could eat their sandwiches every day!!! They need a location in San Francisco because they would definitely be the hottest chicken joint in town. Whew!! Drooling just thinking about it.

The Ultimate Chicken Sandwich is one of the best, however these people have the worst marketing team of the century.1: Schedules are rarely updated.2: If schedules are updated, they're done on the same day so you can't plan ahead3: Schedules aren't posted consistently across all platforms (ie: posted on Twitter, but not IG. Posted on Wordpress but not their actual website. What??)4: Schedules posted with incorrect dates (eg: For January 16 it's posted as 11/16.)The food truck location, Raytheon, is also the worst possible spot, as parking is employee only. They have multiple security actively walking around turning people away who are there just for the food truck. I can surmise that EatOnMonday primarily only care about catering income and that their public food truck service is a very distant second place "eh, maybe if we feel like it or aren't too hungover" type of deal. I won't make make any future efforts to obtain the delicious chicken sandwiches that EatOnMonday produces, because they simply don't care about the public. No food truck is worth chasing down, especially EatOnMonday aka EatOnTheDaysWeFeelLikeIt. That's the ultimate truth.

Eat on Monday has always been my favorite food truck and it had been awhile since I had been there. My friend is a big fan as well and had them come to her workplace for her birthday. Luckily it was near where I work and I could come down for lunch. I had the blue cheese burger with arugula and maple bacon and a side of fries. The burger was so tasty. The combination of all of the ingredients with the meat is so good. Juicy burger, yummy toppings. Fries are tasty too. Definitely a nice treat. I would definitely follow them on social media to find out where they will be next.
