I loved the chips served with three different salsa/dipping options. One is hot! I won't tell you which one, why ruin the fun? I ordered the shrimp and mushroom quesadilla in corn tortillas. My husband had a pork burrito. I skipped the refried beans only because I didn't know if they were vegetarian safe. The margaritas were refreshing and had more of a natural orange flavor rather than that heavy, syrupy fake-lime taste--which I really appreciated! It's a little bit of a drive for us to get there, but the food was delicious enough that we'll definitely be back. The bathroom was also clean, which is always a plus! I love the Mexican music that was playing in the background too.

The restaurant is situated on a side street just several burrito lengths from the Meriden Green where the farmers market was in process of concluding. On entering we were impressed by the size of the interior which was festively decorated as well as the number of employees though the acoustics proved to a bit distracting due to the loud music continuously being played. After a short wait a server arrived bearing at trio of menus, a basket full of taco chips and multiple enhancements. Meat options for the street tacos were not fully detailed, but when queried we were told both pollo and al pastor were available. We decided to share a quartet of the latter plus a pair of sodas. It took quite awhile for our meals to arrive so we took full advantage of the complimentary chips and salsas. It was during this period that I discovered the bottle marked spicy was indeed spicy so it was wisely ignored from that point forward. The tacos proved to be fresh and flavorful though the meat portion was under whelming and extremely dry. Our servers were uniformly pleasant though each step in the process from taking our order to obtaining a check took longer than either desired or required. A rating of 2.5 stars is deemed most appropriate.

As a Yelper I find it challenging to want to hire a business that I can't find reviews of online but that was the case with this company. I'm so glad I "took a chance" on them because they were the hit of the party. Angela and Kevin arrived with the brick oven already pumping out a woody smoky essence. Within an hour to 45 minutes the pizzas started flying out of the oven onto a huge table provided by the truck! It comes with salad as well. We were able to specifically pick out 5 pizzas from their list and they created several others on the fly that they knew would be big hits with the crowd. In addition to those that we picked and those made on the fly they also had the standard cheese and pepperoni slices for the "kids." One of the favorites of the crowd was definitely the loaded potato pizza (that was my favorite for sure). This was a seriously smart and budget friendly way to cater a party for about 50 people. In the week leading up to the party my wife and squabbled over what other food we should buy and provide for the party. I kept saying "less is more" and "that's why we hired the food truck". We did end up putting out a fruit plate, veggie tray and some dips but I've got to say, we had leftovers. We also had at least 8 full pizzas left over (very nice). I would hire these guys again in a heartbeat. It was worth it. Oh and to give you a sense of the cost it was about $950 for 3 hours delicious pizza (no fork or knife needed!) for 50 folks.

Kevin was a brilliant truck and trailer driver who backed his rig in alongside our high top tent behind the carriage barn. Then he and his associate began producing their delicious pizzas within the first hour. Our guests were all delighted and the trailer also helped block the cool winds that followed the all day rain! The only hiccup was that a late arriving guest had blocked the driveway exit when the truck went to leave, but the hard working folks took it all in stride until we let them get away after one of the best and most epic barn birthday bashes ever. Everyone commented on how delicious the pizzas were and how fast the chefs were at getting them to Angela's serving tables much to their delight. Paired with local brews from John Auclair's nearby Norbrook Farm Brewery, the evening was a culinary delight for all. Bravo Kevin and Angela of The Family Pizza Truck!

The Chef Truck is a gourmet food truck that opened in Branford, Connecticut in February 2020. It…read morewas founded by Chef John Kronfeld and his fiancée Missy Miller. Kronfeld is a graduate of the Culinary Institute of America with over 20 years of experience in the restaurant business. Some of the restaurants he worked at over the years include Bobby's Burger Palace at Mohegan Sun Casino and the kitchen at the Omni Hotel in New Haven. Miller dabbles as an amateur cook while working from home as a campus recruiting consultant. The couple's mission is to give customers a gourmet restaurant experience right on the street or from the comfort of their own homes. This past weekend was the wedding of my brother and sister-in-law at Stewards of the Land Brewery in Northford. It just so happens that they booked the Chef Truck to provide the food for the reception. I had previously sampled some of Chef John's delicious food when I attended an exclusive 'Foodie Influencer' event a few months back at the same brewery. I was not disappointed then and I certainly wasn't this time. The first course featured an Autumn Salad (salad greens, sliced apples, gorgonzola, pancetta) and bowls of Pumpkin Bisque. Both dishes really hit the spot. The next course featured Chicken n' Waffles, Mac n' Cheese Fritters, and Cheese-stuffed Squash Blossoms. Everything was perfect! The final course was served buffet style and included the "Mississippi Mac Attack" (slow-cooked pulled pork over Mac n' Cheese with Scallions) and "General Tso's Chickpeas" (crispy chickpeas, tofu & broccoli tossed in sweet & spicy sauce over jasmine rice). Everything was so flavorful. I think that the second course may have been my favorite. Another great culinary experience from Chef John! If you happen to see the Chef Truck parked at your favorite brewery or winery in New Haven County then you won't be disappointed!

As I approached the food truck, I was immediately greeted by the staff. I ordered Birria Tacos and one of the staff members asked me if I wanted anything to drink and he asked me did I want to try a juice they made. The juice was called Passion Fruit Juice and as I sampled the juice, it was so refreshing so I ordered a cup. The Birria Tacos were delicious, flavorful, crispy, and the cheese melt was just the right amount of cheese. A lot of places cannot make Birria Tacos but these Birria Tacos were right on the money. One thing I love about them is their presentation. The Passion Fruit Juice came with a strawberry that looked like a rose.

Their menu when I visited them at Coles Road Brewing in Berlin consisted of specialty hot dogs, build your own hot dogs, seasoned and topped tots, quesadillas and wraps. I ordered a hot dog with house kraut and spicy brown mustard and Ranch seasoned tots. Service was friendly and efficient. The tots were very good and they had a good crispy outer texture. The seasoning was flavorful. I was told that Rescue Dogs uses Sabrett dogs, which was not a name I knew. Sabrett makes at least a skinless beef Frank and a natural casing dog. I think this was the natural casing dog because I can see a skin in my pic. Sabrett is associated with New York hot dog styles and I saw that it has performed very well in taste tests against other national brands. I thought the dog had good flavor, but it wasn't as snappy as I like at least as cooked on this night. The kraut and mustard were both fairly good, but didn't stand out relative to my favorite area spot. I understand that Rescue Dogs is based in Wolcott and I've seen them on the Coles Road schedule a few times. Rescue Dogs is worth checking out, especially in light of the causes they support. 3.75 Stars
