Oh my goodness! These have to be the sandwich. Best sandwiches we have ever had. Your toasted buns are phenomenal and you don’t skimp on the filling!!! Your chicken is so tender, and we loved the Reuben too. Looking forward to you coming back to Raintree again.

We choose Good Hombres to cater a retirement party at our business, and it was a fantastic experience from start to finish. They arrived right on time to set up and were ready to serve exactly when planned. The food was absolutely delicious, and the portions were very generous—no one left hungry! The staff was incredibly friendly and kept the line moving quickly, so everyone was served without long waits. We chose a package that included an entrée, side, and drink for each guest, and it was well worth it. The pricing was very reasonable for the quality and quantity of food provided. Our guests loved the unique idea of having a food truck, and it really added something special to the event. Highly recommend for anyone planning a party or corporate event!

- the side of salsa was only half full so not enough for 4 pieces of quesadilla; side of sour cream may have been fat-free as it wasn't as flavorful as regular sour cream.

The flavor of the fries & corn dog were great & the fried cookie dough was a nice treat to have accessible given you typically only get the luxury of fair food at the fair. It's nice to have the option for fair food so easily accessible! Look forward to ordering again!

The cheeseburger egg roll it was new to me. It was hot crispy and juicey so good perfect for a food truck easy to eat 😋 but tasty and very filling feels like quality food and not fast food garbage Definitely would order again!

Food is delicious. Look forward to supporting the truck every time it's near our office! Truck staff is really nice and provide excellent customer service.

Prices too high. Consider large portion or additional cheaper sides. Grilled cheese was good, but it was tiny and the coleslaw portion was tiny and the side of kettle chips are just bagged chips from the grocery store that add no additional value to the meal
