Would have been a 5 star but they got there exactly at the time the luncheon was scheduled to start - making me a little nervous! Aside from that the food and service were both excellent!

Jiniah and her team were amazing - very friendly and efficient with our guests. Food was great and there was a wide variety - the only reason I’m not giving them 5 stars is that it is advertised as serving seasoned waffle fries and they were just plain fries - still tasty but not what we expected.

The brisket melt is absolutely delicious. We loved the seasoning on the fresh cut fries. This is definitely our favorite sandwich truck that comes to Talavera.

Second time trying BFT and i like how quick they get orders ready. This is our first time trying the truffalo pizza and it's one of my favorites now.

I was just a little disappointed that they didn't have the chess pie that I had ordered. The red beans and rice were really good.

The turkey burger was good. I don't eat onions and have allergies to that so I scraped them off. There wasn't a space to request ti have them removed. Perhaps, an "instructions" space can be added for that particular burger as well. Many have allergies to foods. Thank you!🙂
