The jerk chicken taco and vegan carnitas taco were both so good and fresh. The service at the truck was very friendly and quick.

Very kind to warm up my fries at pickup since my coworkers picked it up at late and it was delicious!

Everything was very good as well as fresh. I think the burger could have used more seasoning but that is only a preference and not a negative.

The french fries were good but overly salty. . . The truck arrived an hour & half or more late after we already ordered and paid around 5:30! Customers were not notified of when they were arriving.

The service is consistently incredible and the flavor, fresheness and amount of food was perfect. I was craving tacos for weeks and knew I would be satisfied ordering from Moms Tacos!

Turkey wrap was fresh as well as the pasta salad. Many times the pasta salad is "wilted and soggy" via other venues; NoT the case with Livvi's--everything was perfect, including the hospitality!!

Everything was good. Cranberry's and nuts would have have been great in the chicken salad sandwhich. It was still very good! Loved the pasta salad

Big hit and great workers. The burgers were delicious but they didn't come with fries. Somehow we missed that not being included. It's just always expected - burger and fries. :)
