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!

All the employees were mostly happy with the meal. a few things that were said is that for the pulled pork they would of liked more meat on the sandwich. Also it was stated that the brownies were homemade, in which they were not. Over all it was a good experience.

I heard the food truck food was delicious and they were very efficient on getting people through the line. Thank you! I was glad to I was able to talk to the food truck driver prior to the event to ensure the food that was coming and that there would be options. I started to wonder if the whole process of finding the truck was a scam.. so glad I was able to connect with a person to ask questions. Everyone indicated it was very good and our event was a success! Thank you! Pam Hoffdahl Neogen Oakdale, MN
