I would put messaging in the text alerts to: let the staff know when you have arrived and provide your order number. I waited 15 min. Not realizing that. Thank you

Lupita's Tacos were incredible - I've received positive feedback from attendees! The food was great! I really appreciated the pre-packaging, it made everything go by so smoothly and the line was never too long. And communication up to the event was great. My one suggestion would be to label the pre-packaging so people know what type of meat is inside the burritos/tacos, instead of having to open each container. But other than that, amazing! Will definitely keep them in mind for future events :)

On behalf of the Department of Pathology & Laboratory Medicine, I wanted to thank you for being a part of our Summer Picnic. The food truck was a huge hit with our staff—people really enjoyed the quality of the food, the service, and the overall experience. Your team was punctual, well-organized, and very professional throughout the event. The ordering process moved smoothly, and we received great feedback from attendees about both the food and the friendliness of your staff. We truly appreciate your partnership and would absolutely consider working with you again for future events. Thank you again for helping make our event a success!

We had Jeries, Armando and their team out for our daughter's 2nd birthday party and they were awesome! They were on time, very professional and courteous, and everyone complimented how great the food was. They made the gathering perfect and we would definitely have them back out! Thanks 5 Elements!!

Not them but I think there is something wrong with the website. It tries to text me when I'm placing my order but can't so then I have to do email. Yesterday and today. Today I got 10+ texts.

I had the jerk chicken tacos. The chicken and jerk seasoning was delicious. But a mango based pico or something more Caribbean would make it amazing. Jerk and standard pico compete oddly.

Everything. Food was tasty and great quality. Quantity of meat was proportionate to the price. It was ready when I walked up and the lady was very friendly. Awesome experience!
