Great menu variety and feedback from employees on the quality, quantity, and taste of the food. The service was good, even though they had an equipment failure. Very friendly staff.

Very good, quality food. You, like many bbq places, need to cut the brisket across the grain-- I'm from TX and always amazed when bbq people don't do that.

The pizza was great, the only thing I could be nitpicky about was the top of my deep dish slice was burnt and not simply like a char. Other than that it reminded me of authentic Chicago deep dish which is hard to come by here in Nashville

This was the most popular truck at the event and they completely sold out!

I ordered online and had to wait 30 minutes for a simple Italian beef sandwich. I stood and waited while other people walked up to order and received their sandwiches within 5-10 minutes. The wait was absolutely ridiculous, and I will not be ordering online again.

The pork was excellent and a lot of meat. And the collard greens were tender with a little heat. All great.
