The menu had al pastor, asada, tripe, chorizo, carnitas, and buche - a good mix of the classics, and something for different tastes. I only had the al pastor on this visit, and it delivered. Really good flavor enhanced with the pineapple. Will definitely return to test more of their meats and find a favorite. Glad to have Dos Compas in town!

I reached out to Charles via email and got a timely response. He was upfront on cost-- how much was needed for a down payment and how much his minimum was. The entire planning process was painless. I had an event of about fifty people-- we had a two-hour serving window. Keepin Up With the Jones's food truck came about 90 minutes or so early to prep. The menu we had included: pulled pork, buffalo chicken sandwich, chicken bacon and ranch sandwich, cheeseburger, hamburger and popcorn chicken. Along with fries, baked beans, coleslaw and potato salad as sides. I am not kidding when I say everything that came out was great! Everyone was clean plate club. (And that is saying something. Those are some LEGIT serving sizes but the food was THAT good.) If you want reasonably priced, yummy food-- hire Keepin Up With the Jones's for your next event!

I expected the fries in the poutine to be a bit soggy since i bought it for to-go, but the poutine is still very good regardless - they put a bit plantain, so it balances out the savoriness with a touch of sweetness.

Fantastic meats! They have a Sampler (ribs, brisket, chicken, sides) which is a must-try, along with meals consisting of a sandwich of any of their meats along with sides, or tacos with any of their meats. Their cornbread is just right, not too dry or too oily, and the mac & cheese and smoked gouda potatoes are tasty as well. Keep an eye on their social media since they have specials from time to time posted there (hello, pulled pork nachos) as well as their location if they are using the food truck. I was worried after the loss of another bbq place recently in North Liberty and am so happy to have found T.C. Bonez this summer!

My wagon is overflowing, and hard to pull. The cooler is full. There's multiple food options packed from fruit to sandwiches to chips to brownies. There's candy and popcorn and a multitude of sunflower seeds. I've got something for everyone. But it never fails. It's the third inning of our first game and I have the hankering for more caffeine. And while I am already two cups in, fully caffeinated -- with a Coke Zero waiting for me in my jam packed cooler-- I still have to walk over to Tom's. The staff is always pleasant. Price seems standard. The menu has something for everyone (except puppers. My bougie Boston Terrier legit expects a pup cup when she smells coffee and Tom's lets her down each time). My last purchase was the nitro brew with cream. Delightful. Overall-- Traveling Tom's Coffee is a worthwhile food truck slinging coffee to over committed softball parents.

The food is especially delicious yes, but it all starts in an adorable food truck! Their name is creative and cute and if you ask, they'll tell you exactly how they came up with ZZnT! The ladies are kind and funny, with warm welcoming smiles and fun personalities. You cant help but strike up a conversation with them. As someone that doesn't go out to eat all the time, I would also have to say that their pricing is absolutely perfect and fair for the amount of gourmet delicacies that you get to indulge in. $9 for a huge sandwich that tastes like my mom made it? Yes please! ZZnT updates their Facebook regularly so you ALWAYS know where they are. Track them down! Eat the best lunch around! And come right back here to give another 5 star review!!

To be honest, whenever I'm feeling down I think of the brightest spot of my week. It's Saturday morning, when I feel that burrito in my hand, and I take a flavorful bite as salsa drips down my face. Local Burrito is synonymous with happiness in my mind. Try it out, you will not be sorry. Also, here's a pro-tip. You order and pay on the left, then get in line on the right where you tell the peeps what burrito you got. There, you can say if you want salsa/hot sauce, or none. The salsa is SO KILLER though, you have to get it.

This seems like a town that would really gravitate to a strong food truck culture. Used to live close to Durham, NC, where food truck rodeos were commonplace; there seems to be enough locavores here for a critical mass for food trucks here. Having heard about the recent menu changes and seeing them at the forefront of the pro-food truck movement here, my hopes were high. I tried the breakfast burrito, which has eggs, potatoes, and various locally sourced greens. I opted to add cheese curds for $1 extra, an exciting local option. I was somewhat disappointed with the burrito, because it was heavy on potatoes and light on eggs, greens, and curds. If the ingredient mix were balanced, this could have had much more flavor than it did. The other menu additions, such as Korean fusion and thai peanut tempeh, sound intriguing so I'll update my review once I try those.

The portions were TOO BIG! OMG, I barely made it through a third of my meal before I had to give up and put the rest aside for left-overs to eat later. And then, my next problem is the food itself. Tasty, delicious, perfectly prepared, and so good that just SMELLING the aromas on my drive home caused me to gain five pounds. My final complaint? I ordered two gyros, one for me and one for my better half, and nothing else. When I got home, we dug in, only to discover that they had tossed in a free order of (mouthwateringly delectable!!!) french fries. Okay, so kidding aside, the food and the service are wonderful. At $9 each, the price seems a bit high to me, but then again, everything seems expensive to me these days. A quick web-check shows me that nine bucks is about average for the area, and speaking from experience, these Gyros seem above average in quality for the area. My only other (real) complaint? The hours. With labor/wages being what they are these days, I can understand the short hours, but that doesn't mean that I LIKE them. If you want to taste a little bit of culinary heaven, keep your eye on the calendar and the clock. Gyro Hicks is open from 11AM to 1:30PM, and only open on Weds, Thurs, Fri, and Sat. Even so, it is DEFINITELY WORTH IT.
