Tasty food and friendly folks are expected when you book a food truck, but MYH went above and beyond for our event. We thoroughly enjoyed their food, and would definitely hire them again.

It was very good. I just enjoy having a little more pork in the sandwich. Did not order extra pork because I never had it before and did not know what to expect.
