Hired them for a company Birthday / Retirement luncheon. Staff arrived on time, was very friendly, and very organized. From the minute they parked the vehicle they were ready to begin service. This was a seamless service and the ordering was easy. Everything was prepaid in advance and so no uncertainties were looming. The food was delicious, good selection of meats, and various options of items in the burrito to make it customized. The quote was for Burritos, Quesadillas, and Tacos, but when they arrived the sign on the window stated Tacos and Burritos only; so there was some miscommunication there. But it didn't really phase us too much. I will definitely be hiring this truck again in the future.
