Take care of pre-orders before walk upstairs. People walked up ordered and left before a lot of us got our food......🤔

We had a great experience with the Sizzling Wagon! The food was fresh, tasty, and they made accommodations for special diet restrictions. Service was awesome, and everything ran smoothly. Our team really enjoyed it—we’d be happy to have them back again!
