We were a little nervous that they would need more time to set up, as they didn't arrive until about 25-30 minutes before our event. However that was the only potential negative aspect. These guys were quick with getting food out, I had so many positive comments regarding how good the food was I lost track how many there were. I would absolutely hire this truck again in a heartbeat.

We tried the sandwiches with bacon jam for the first time. The burger and chicken sandwiches were delicious!!! We tend to order the grilled cheese burger and the chicken bacon club. Now I won't know which sandwich to order next time!😁

I ordered the Cuban sandwich without mustard but it came loaded with mustard. The sandwich was cooked perfectly and the pork was delicious but had way to much mustard. Otherwise I would’ve given 5 stars in lieu of 4. 😊 The pulled pork sandwich was delicious.

Tacos El Poblanito did an excellent job catering my client’s picnic. They kept in constant communication throughout the day, which made everything run smoothly. My client said the food was delicious, and the guests all enjoyed it. I would definitely recommend them!

Pizza was still warm when I picked it up and had so much flavor. First time trying the veggie, it's a new fav.

Way too much sauce in the esquite that made it resemble more of a soup. I dumped out half the sauce so I could enjoy the corn more, but everything had good flavor.

The food, service, and support were incredible. They were so good that we wanted to add another day of rental for the next day at our production, but they were already booked. Will definitely work with them again.

Our employees loved the food truck and they were prompt and had enough food for both our day and night shift team members. The food was delicious. We would definitely use them again for future events.

I had the pork arepas and they were delicious! I also heard good reviews from our guests about the Cuban sandwich, empanadas, and mango street tacos too. It was very easy working with the owners and they did a great job of feeding our guests in a timely/orderly manner! I would definitely recommend their food truck to others.
