That was just about the best chicken I have ever had. The crunch, the taste, the moisture was all delicious.

The food was delicious The fries were good and I was late picking up so if I was on time and the food was hot I can't imagine how scrumptious it all would have been. I had the briscuit and my husband had the Philly cheese steak and they were both filling enough that we could save half each for tomorrow's lunch. I got an order of boom boom sauce just so I could know whether I should order the sandwich that has it the next time. I think I will; it has just enough of a kick, but not too much that it will cause me heartburn. Loved it.

The spice levels were 1-5 I chose 1 (I don't like very spicy foods). However, I found it to be quite spicy which is why I rated it a four. Otherwise the food was very well made.

The jerk chicken taco and vegan carnitas taco were both so good and fresh. The service at the truck was very friendly and quick.

Very kind to warm up my fries at pickup since my coworkers picked it up at late and it was delicious!

Everything was very good as well as fresh. I think the burger could have used more seasoning but that is only a preference and not a negative.

The french fries were good but overly salty. . . The truck arrived an hour & half or more late after we already ordered and paid around 5:30! Customers were not notified of when they were arriving.

The service is consistently incredible and the flavor, fresheness and amount of food was perfect. I was craving tacos for weeks and knew I would be satisfied ordering from Moms Tacos!

Turkey wrap was fresh as well as the pasta salad. Many times the pasta salad is "wilted and soggy" via other venues; NoT the case with Livvi's--everything was perfect, including the hospitality!!

I ordered the wings, which were good. I ordered a double batch to share with coworkers. Each one was short, a wing which the owner apologized for. Only one box had dipping sauce. He did supplement with cheesy breadsticks, which were delicious.
