The food was incredibly tasty and the portions were large - enough left over for lunch tomorrow. There aren't many creole trucks out there so knocking it out of the park flavor-wise was great!

Food was very good and our guests enjoyed it. However, the wait for food orders was 35 to 45 minutes. Thankfully we also had an ice cream truck that guests could visit and have their ice cream while they waited for their lunch order.

The fried catfish. I only wish you would have added more packets of tartar sauce. I ended up having to use some cocktail sauce that I had.
