Poor customer service! I spent 40 minutes waiting for a plain hot dog (which was not well cooked) and a order of fries.

Took 45 minutes for a buffalo dog and they forgot the ranch. And onion rings where they forgot the sauce. 7 dollars tiny hotdog, would never go back.

Great food with a very kind, curteous and efficient staff. The truck and equipment is brand new and clean. High quality food and a fast preparation of all types of burgers, hotdogs and fries with a plethora of condiments and toppings. You can even call them up to preorder your meal. Highly recommended!
