Brian was fabulous, fun and professional! All our 40 guests LOVED the tacos and the service. Many have asked for Brian's contact information to write positive reviews and to use his services at their own parties. Thumbs up!!!

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 ordered the pepperoni but the meat was not evenly distributed so it almost looked like a have plain / half pepperoni pizza.

The burgers were delicious, as always. We never miss having Tampa Burgers, even if we still call them Shula burgers. Cooked perfectly and never dry or overdone.

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.

The truck arrived 30 mins late, which caused quite a disturbance. The food was cooked and served quickly. Some things were overcooked and dried out, a bit. However, Mike was very courteous and professional and accommodating.
