Loved the lunch box being so well rounded with fruit and protein bar. The complementary drink was the cherry on top! But seriously, the hot chicken wrap was sooo good!!!!!😊

Absolutely fantastic! The burgers were fresh, juicy, and full of flavor — easily some of the best I’ve had from a food truck. The service was fast and friendly, and everyone working there was so kind and welcoming. You can really tell they care about what they do.

Really good BBQ and sides. Ready on time. Better than any other BBQ truck that's been here. And I'm from Alabama and let's say I know a little bit about BBQ! Lol

The food was tasty but when I went to pick up my orders the person checking me out didn’t ask if I needed any bbq sauces for my meals. The bags were tied up so I assumed they put them in the bags. There wasn’t any and I was too far away to drive back. The attention to the small details make a difference.

Sarah's Triple S was a hit at the lunch event. They showed up on time, were friendly, and their cheeseburgers were especially a crowd pleaser. The vegetarian option was helpful to have and the sides were all delicious.

The hamburger meat is delicious. Only complaint is the special instructions were not followed to add extra pickles, but the taste made the difference

Onion rings were fabulous! Chicken as well great. Looking for a bit more variety of burgers besides just bigger or hotter.
