Food was delicious! The man working up front letting everyone know where they were in the queue was awesome. Yes, they were behind, but he answered everyone questions with an apology and a smile. He did a great job under a huge amount of pressure!

Great food! And with how hard they got hit with orders (being it was the first day with food trucks on site and soooo many people ordered) the staff was super pleasant and really just did a wonderful job keeping up! And again, the food was phenomenal!

Food was delicious. Staff were doing very well when in the weeds. Please tell them that it made my shift go by sooooo much easier with some great fried oysters in me. All the food was good, much better than the garbage that they serve at the Boeing Hub. Thank you!!!!

I got the shrimp tacos and they were delicious. Lots of shrimp crammed in those 2 tacos, so awesome value for the price. My order was on time (made fresh) when I picked it up. Looking forward to next time!

We hired Dave's S&T for a corporate employee appreciation event, and it was a smashing success from start to finish. Great communication in advance, very reasonable fixed price menu, impressive streamlined efficiency that prevented a line/wait for food, great customer service with our employees, tons of options on the menu, and fresh, flavorful food that *almost* everyone went absolutely crazy about (I mean, you can't please everyone. But it was as close to a resounding consensus as we've ever had). We'll book them again!

Food was fresh, delicious and seasoned so well, vs bland at other places that cater to a population that doesn't wish to try authentic foods. I got to pick my degree of heat!

we've been to the store in the past and was happy to have the food truck in the area! Crepes were ready on time and delicious 😋 i felt like it should be more than one person cooking and serving or maybe he wasn't. it was just what i saw at the time
