Pizza was amazing, good number of choices on menu. Only recommendation would be to be able to add other ingredients on pizzas. Will definitely order next time they come

They ran out of GF buns, so I ordered a burger without a bun, and sauce on the side, planning to use a GF bun at home. When I checked the order at home, the bunless burger had a regular bun. I switched it to the GF bun but all of the cheese stuck to the regular bun. Very disappointing. We will not be ordering in the future unless you have GF buns, as your menu listed.

A little more sausage would be good. Love the crispy crust and not overly cheesed. One of our favorite pizzas.

Reduce price of plain burger compared to burgers with all toppings. Should be more like $7 given extra patty is $4 and plain burger is patty plus bun.

We've ordered from this food truck before. The portion size is great for the price and is great! I don't believe I've had better pizza in the Wesley Chapel area. We're always excited when this truck comes to Avalon!

Everything was perfect. The. Burger was packed full of flavor and perfectly cooked. The hot dog was massive, and you now have my favorite onion rings.
