We hired Uptown Food Truck for a private party with 60-70 attendees. Everyone loved the food choices and high quality. Chef Chris and team did a fabulous job. We had four selections and all were excellent: Bacon cheese burger, grilled chicken sandwich, shrimp and grits, and chicken and waffles. We highly recommend Uptown Food Truck.

Chicas Birria was fantastic! Showed up on time, set up quickly and served our guests efficiently and effectively. The food was delicious! The Birria QuesaTacos were incredible and were served with dipping sauce. The Churros were a big hit, too! Our guests raved about the food.

Everything was perfect. Grilled to perfection, on a toasted bun, with very fresh produce on it. It wasn't greasy at all, and the fries were absolutely on point and delicious. My best friend and I split a burger and large fries and it was the perfect amount for both of us!!

Bread was very wet on Nashville hot sandwich so pretty messy eating! Chicken was good and fries too. And nice and hot!

Include a way to customize the sandwich/wrap. I missed adding lettuce and tomato's even though the photo had it

. We always enjoy your nachos. I wonder if you guys would consider kid size portions of the nachos or maybe even simple quesadillas as an option for the kids. Otherwise, the nachos were great.

Loved the amount of lettuce given as the bun was a generous portion enough to surround the awesome mushroom Swiss burger!

The Connecticut lobster roll was supposed to be warm and buttered. Although it was flavorful, there was no melted butter on the lobster or the roll. The fries were plentiful, nice and crisp. There was some confusion when I gave them my order number. At first the lady said that wasn't the correct number. She also couldn't seem to find my order when I gave her my name and what was in my order. Then, my phone beeped and I had a confirmation text that my order was ready. It was the order number I had originally provided.
