Loved this food truck, both the food and the crew! They were wonderful, kind and very quick. The price was not too bad for what we got and we'd love to host with them again!

The pulled chicken is very good. I wanted no salt on my fries, and they had to redo them, but they did so with a smile.

The tacos are really good. My only complaint is on a few of the orders. I asked for no onions and no cilantro due to family members with onion allergies and onions are still on it that we had to take it. The food definitely taste good. I would just prefer more acknowledgment to what we were requested since it was an option.

Both pizza were delicious and had plenty of toppings! One of the best gluten free crusts I've ever had! Loved that you could order ahead and the texting feature to know pick up. Would love for them to come to the neighborhood again!

OMG! Everything was so delicious!!! It was fresh and not soggy at all! The flavors on each dish was amazing! Bang bang chicken, Nashville chicken, the burger thing ... wow!

It was good chicken and fries. There was a lady who was sort of blocking the window from the outside who was thinking about what she wanted. When I went around her because my phone showed my order was ready I heard her acting like I had cut her. Like I had to ask her permission to try to pick up a take out order. So that was annoying.

The food was still warm . I had preordered. This helped with having the food ready instead of waiting for a long time. I liked the idea of the device they gave to us for pick up. The customer service was also pleasant.
