We hired District Small Bites food Truck for our company picnic lunch, and they exceeded all expectations! The team arrived promptly on time, setup was seamless, and the service was top-notch. The food was absolutely delicious, with a variety of options to cater to our diverse team's tastes. Every employee raved about the quality and flavor of their meals. What truly impressed us was the outstanding service. The staff were friendly, attentive, and ensured everyone had a fantastic dining experience.

More than 5! They worked their butts off to get the food out. All of it was delicious! Probably the best burger meat I've ever had, melted in my mouth!

Food was great and she was very pleasant. She was by herself when I went down there but she had a great system and stayed positive during a hectic time. I loved being able to pre-order and that they texted me when my food was ready.

Tasty sandwich and soup. I pre ordered and received an email they would try to accommodate my scheduled pickup and was expecting a text when the order was ready but didn’t receive one. Upon going to the truck my order was handed to me immediately however.
