but the cheese sauce on the Philly egg rooms was way to spicy and egg roll itself was blend - could use seasoning or cheese sauce that was better seasons and not just spicy hot but everything else is awesome hot and fresh

Truck ran 30 mins late on our order and the meatballs tasted like they were previously frozen - they were a weird texture and not flavorful

The order was "on time" very generous amounts, the roll was toasted perfectly.( unexpected) the meat was so tender and tasty..the mac & cheese yummy, and the beans even had a piece of VERY tender bacon in it! DELICIOUS!

My sandwich was tasty! I didn't like that it had two different sizes of bread one substantially smaller. This caused the roast beef on one end to be dried out. It was a great sandwich and the chef was very friendly.
