Kind of wish that I would have gotten the fries with the order for the price instead of a bag of chips

Food was delicious! The man working up front letting everyone know where they were in the queue was awesome. Yes, they were behind, but he answered everyone questions with an apology and a smile. He did a great job under a huge amount of pressure!

Great food! And with how hard they got hit with orders (being it was the first day with food trucks on site and soooo many people ordered) the staff was super pleasant and really just did a wonderful job keeping up! And again, the food was phenomenal!
