The churros were absolutely delicious - fresh, warm, perfectly crispy on the outside, and soft on the inside! The team was friendly, professional, and made the whole experience so fun. Such a great addition to any event, and our guests loved it. Highly recommend!

I had so many employees come up and tell me how great the food was and how wonderful the food truck employees were! We ended up with a lot more people attending our picnic than we had originally planned on and both Wiseguy and High On Tacos were more than accommodating with the overflow.

We had Wiseguy food truck out at our summer company picnic and they were a huge hit! We'll definitely book them again!

The taste, everything was delicious. I normally don't take well to tomato, but it was so delicious in the caprese!

Order was done earlier than scheduled, food was delicious, we had them take tots off the order and they reimbursed us for the tots on both orders. This is our fav food truck! Nicely done, we will be back!

The macaroni and cheese was cooked perfectly, the cheese had a great flavor, and the bacon was nice and crispy. There was a great amount of bacon for the topping, and I felt like the portion of macaroni and cheese was decent. I will definitely order from this food truck the next time I want to try the brisket.

Fave part: All of it! The whole experience. The aroma hits first as I walk towards the truck & trailer. Smells SO good! The staff is next - they are professional & courteous. The pizza is simply delicious. Best pizza I have had. All the flavors and ingredients are balanced. Perfect!

Fresh and flavorful. Even after sitting in the container after I picked it up the sandwich still had a crisp to it as well as the tator tots. Well cooked and not soggy at all
