The staff running the truck was amazing.. We had a lot of people bombard the truck after my mother’s services and they got people food quickly. They had their serving down. We would definitely hire them again.

Don't run out of German potato salad so early in the evening. We placed our order before 5:00 for a 5:20 pick up and they were already out of it.
