NFM says that was the best Philly sandwich of all the trucks that come to Wright farms. I should have ordered 2 (more) for later. Raise your price and stay in business. Please come back again. Friend NFM

The whole meal! The burger was outstanding in look and taste, and the salt fries were great (love the crunch and meaty fry's)

The food was very good. The food truck staff were super kind and did their best to keep up with the inundation of orders. The BFT app told me that my order was ready; however, I had to wait at the truck (with many other customers) for well over an hour for my order. The communication dependability between BFT and the customer needs to improve drastically.

Food was good but the service was lacking. I placed a preorder for 5:25pm. I received an email at 5:25pm that my order was ready. I went to pick it up and finally got my order at 6:30 pm and that was after having to remind the crew what I ordered and paid for one hour and 45 minutes earlier. They evidently lost my order.

The black beans, plantains, avocado, and mozzarella cheese combo on the arpes bread was amazing. I've never had this before & I was very pleased. The order was fast, andthe food was hot. I'll definitely order again.
