The graduation party was a huge success. The food truck arrived early and was ready to serve as soon as we were ready to eat. Everyone I spoke with at the party said the food was delicious and they enjoyed it very much. They had a great variety of entrees and side items. The people on the truck were nice. It could not have gone any better. I would definitely hire this truck again and would recommend them to anyone interested in having a food truck.

We were very pleased woth the overall experience with Willie B’s. The food was good and came out quickly enough for the teachers to enjoy their lunch. There were plenty of options for any degree of health or comfort food. We had good feedback from the teacher about the quality of the food as well. The only issue was lack of communication. The communication was good until the day of. The truck was 20 min late which definitely caused some concern for our team. No call, text or comment was made when they did finally show up. I had been told we would receive a text prior to arrival and we did not. Thankfully they did not need the 30+ minutes they originally said they would to set up so it did not cause issues with the service. The only reason I feel that it is important to mention this is that a simple text or call to notify us that they would be later than we discussed the day before, would have avoided any confusion and stress for our team.

Put the baked beans in a separate bag, knotted to prevent spillage. 1/3 of my beans ended up under the main container inside the bag.

Food was really good. Only thing I recommend is not skimping on the brisket. Ordered a 3 meat platter with sausage, brisket and chicken. The amount of chicken we got was a lot compared to everything else. Chicken just happens to be the most inexpensive item for the business so I feel like that was on purpose.

The beef brisket was perfectly smoked, the mac & cheese very saucy. I was surprised that the coleslaw wasn't mixed, but then I thought (great idea).- this way I can remove some sauce to match my taste
