Oh my was that a load of meat! I ordered the Italian sandwich and the meat was quality grade stuff. It was literally pilled high like Smokey Bones meat sandwiches you see. The tomato on the sandwhich was huge, so I believe that they use like beefeater tomatoes, because those are the biggest grown tomatoes I can think of. Accompanied by their sauce with the meats and cheeses. I should have expected that when ordering an Italian! The last time I ate an Italian it was the leaner kind from Subway. Not the hefty meaty portion I got here! If you're looking for quality meats sandwiches look no further than Kenny's Meat Wagon! read more

I have food truck anxiety in that whenever I come upon a food truck for the first time, I get nervous that I won't see it again for quite some time, and so I order way more food than I should. I also spend way more than I should, but in the case of Kenny's Meat Wagon, $14 for two sandwiches didn't break the bank too much, but it did almost put me into a food coma. I've had several chances to check out Kenny and his wagon, but I just never gave it a chance. Today was that day and what a great day it was. I could smell the grill from a ways off, especially the Chicago style Italian beef he had sitting there marinading. The menu offered for regular options and two specials, one being a Veggie sandwich. I had to figure out how to try a bit of everything without overdoing it. I went with the Italian sandwich, which had a thick slice of Genoa salami and pepperoni on it and a pile of the Italian beef covered in veggies and spicy mayo. This.. should have been enough for me, but I had to get the Corby Dog too which was a 1/4 lb hot dog topped with pulled pork and homemade BBQ sauce and purple slaw. All the meats are local, and the awesome bread that it comes on is too. I downed that Italian sandwich pretty quick even though it was quite a bit of food and started to get the meat sweats. It was so good, but Kenny's not messing around with his meat, and you'll probably want to take it slow. As far as the Corby Dog, I saved that for later. About 15 minutes later. It was absolutely delicious, and the BBQ sauce mixed in with the sweet peppers and grilled onions was really tasty. I wanted to get this review out here before I fell asleep at work, because the food was just so good. I see now why he won an award at the Columbus Food Truck festival. He's also selling OH Chips! If you find him, you have to give it a try. The Facebook and Twitter pages are updated daily, so that'll be your best bet! read more

See all

Damn this was good! I got the Italian sandwich without mayo - very meaty! The bread on the bottom was soggy which freaks me out texture wise but removing that, it was a delicious sandwich. You definitely get your money's worth and won't leave hungry. I'm happy I was able to try this food truck today and hope I see it more in the future! read more

Had the chance to try Kenny's Meat out in the middle of the street in my neighborhood one day.....wait that sounds bad..... KMW was one of the vendors we had the pleasure of having at this years CrestFest block party (that's better). Was delicious!. Really a very well crafted sandwich. They had a really unique Carolina-style sauce that seemed to go great with the pork. Was made up quickly and to order. I'll be looking out for this truck again! read more

You may be asking yourself, what does this thick bearded man with a meat wagon have, that the trucks don't? Word to your mother... good meats. Kenny keeps it simple with what he produces, and you won't be overwhelmed with option, after option, after option. His simplicity and consistency has won him a shiny trophy that he proudly keeps on display within the corner of his cart. He stands there with his grill craft and works his magic, dunking meats into marinades, sizzling beefs and cheese onto the cook tops, and toasting delicious ciabatta while he's at it. You can watch it ALL go down. No mystery here, just a master craftsman at work. The product may appear overwhelming in text, but is delicious and will make all meat lovers rejoice. He also carried OH! Kettle chips, which is some local love right there, that I can whole heartily appreciate. It was so massively delicious, I could not even finish it. Raves and cites of exclamation were heard all around. Kenny had saved our poor starving souls... on a Friday in late Spring. Heck yes, I would search him out given the chance. You should try him at least once, granted you don't have any qualms, or dietary restrictions to all things meat. Prices range from $8-11 on the main goods. No beverages are offered. read more

I like these guys but i can't go higher than three stars. I picked up the italian beef by the paper and juice ran all over my clothes. This is after the bottom of the bun soaked up all it could and was total mush. The flavor was nothing special but not bad. Got a very tiny order of smashed potatoes for $3 and after tip the sandwhich and potatoes were $16. Again, I like them and 3 stars says a-ok and they are. read more

I've had Kenny's on two occasions... Once at the Columbus Food Truck Festival and once during lunch at Dinin' Hall. He won Best Food Cart at the Food Truck Festival. This guy loves his meat and it shows. The beef is cooked slow and low to give it a fall apart tenderness. His pulled pork is flavorful and moist. And, I can't wait to try some more. read more

I'll be very brief here. if you see this cart, and a portly bearded man behind it, you are doing yourself a gross injustice by not eating right now! this is way outside of my comfort food, but I can't speak enough about how tasty everything comes together. I don't even like Italian subs but the execution with the super thick slices of meat and a massive heap of more meat with a spiced mayo.... I'm actually writing this review in a coma! believe me-- you need this! read more

Just didn't do it for me First I would like to say the server was the nicest guy and had my food ready quickly. Unfortunately i just was not impressed with food. The options were limited so i ordered up the pulled pork sandwich. The pulled pork was not very seasoned and the bbq sauce on top (i chose the classic) was not memorable at all. It was served on a hot dog bun which became soggy pretty fast. Sorry, just not that good. read more

It's not good that i want to go back to the KMW food truck and get another sandwhich. I tried it for the first time. DELISH! Got the loaded taters and buffalo chicken. The fresh bread, the time taken to prepare it, the deliciousness. 5 Stars, Kenny! read more

No really, this is as good as it gets. If you find yourself near this wagon, treat yourself. You can't really go wrong with any of the options, because he keeps it simple and doesn't have 10-20 items to choose from. I don't like the food truck anxiety of reading a long menu while they stare at you to choose. Kenny understands that less time reading a long menu will mean the faster time of shoving delicious food in my mouth. There are occasionally different items offered, but I promise you they will be delicious as well. He has won awards for a reason, and I wear my Meat Wagon shirt with pride! read more

Kenny's Meat Wagon recently came to our neighborhood and was an amazing treat! I ordered the Chicago Italian Beef and my husband got the Carolina BBQ Chicken. Both were huge portions! The food was cooked perfectly and delicious. We each got an order of fries as well. The fries were perfect! Crispy and seasoned. We hope they'll come back soon! read more

This food truck surpassed my expectations. The two men working the truck were very friendly and attentive. I tried the Italian sandwich and it was delicious. Instead of the typical iceberg or Romaine lettuce, they topped it with Bibb lettuce. It makes a difference! The sliced meats were thick and juicy. I will be looking forward to the next time they park at OSU. read more

I was always amazed with what Kenny could cook on his Food Cart and now that he has a Food Truck, watch out Ohio! Be sure to find and eat off of Kenny's Meat Wagon soon! read more

Kenny's Meat Wagon came to my work today for lunch, and I have to say that the Chicago style beef sandwich immediately jumped into the top 10 sandwiches I've ever had. The beef was perfectly cooked, the ciabatta roll was exactly what you need to sop up the juices, and everything just comes together amazingly. I would not hesitate to recommend finding him if you get a chance, if for no other reason than to try this sandwich. read more

Be prepared for the meat sweats after treating yourself to this delicious food truck. Outstanding food and great service turns out for a great food truck experience. I indulged in the Italian sandwich and damn was it good! Cannot wait for them to return so I can try some other items on their menu! read more

Kenny's Meat Wagon offers delicious, hearty sandwiches that hit the spot. My favorite is the Italian Stallion. He won Best Food Cart last summer so he's obviously doing something right. read more

Couldn't figure out a way to get propane working for their event today. Several dissapointed potential customers with no lunch this afternoon. read more

Just awful!!!!! Had the buffalo chicken sandwich. Very little edible chicken once the pieces of fat were removed. Several chunks of chicken were not even warm. One of the chefs coughed into his hand then proceeded to chop an onion without wearing gloves. Disgusting! $8 for a roll and slaw. I won't be eating there again. read more

Cant' really call yourself a "Meat" wagon when you barely put any meat on the sandwiches.

Kenny, today I had an AMAZING lunch , thank to your food truck. I purchased the Chicago Italian beef sandwich with the Italian veggies on top. I love French dip sandwiches and the mixture of the juice from the beef and the veggies was perfect to dip the sandwhich in. I was not sure what to get when I came to your food truck and changed my mind 3 times while waiting in line, but I am sooooo glad I stuck with my first choice. Thanks for a great lunch Kenny.

Great service, great food. And Kenny's Italian Beef is the best I've ever had in the city of Columbus.
